I hate how this picture is accurate. American inaction on climate change fucks everyone over. There's almost no chance of convincing China and India to reduce emissions if the richest country in the world can't be bothered to lift a finger.

But hey, maybe this will incentivize Elon to double his efforts on colonizing Mars for the super rich!

[–] CitizenKong 37 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It will only incentivize Elon (and all the other filthy rich) to build air conditioned luxury bunkers guarded by AI killerbots in places like New Zealand.

Or maybe something like the titular space station in the movie Elysium, where they enjoy the newest medical treatments while looking down on the rest of humanity trying to survive on a planet that has turned into a helhole.

Yes! New Zealand, we have a bunch of gar-- investors we think you'll like.

[–] captainlezbian 10 points 2 weeks ago

Well, we’re going to be acting on it now. Very pro

[–] GladiusB 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

This is my biggest concern. Like whatever on economy. Do I want more for everyone? Absolutely. But those can come back in 5-10 years.

The environment doesn't have that long. We had the hottest summer and about to have the coldest winter and they are all like "let's go orange man!" And not giving a fuck what they leave for the next generation. So fuckin selfish. I hate them so much.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

They don't care because they will be dead before they ever see the effects of their selfishness. They will literally never have any consequence.

I'm sure they know in their hearts that their descendants will suffer and die because of what they do today, but they don't plan on ever feeling bad about it because at the end they will be safe, warm and comfortable in their beds, surrounded by their loving families, after a lifetime of luxuries. Everything to gain and nothing to lose. Why not fuck the planet?

[–] HasturInYellow 7 points 2 weeks ago

I work with young trump supporters starting families. They will be hurt so much by this bullshit.

I hope they can hear me laughing at them until they fucking die. They can all eat shit. Everyone's future is turbo fucked now because of their selfishness, and they will not be spared. I wish them every misery.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago

I hope he does and that all the billionaires join on the maiden flight, we're gonna get rid of the worst scum in one single swoop. I mean, chances are that things will go as well in space/on Mars as his self driving teslas, so please do that ASAP

[–] Resonosity 6 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Actually China is leading the planet on renewables deployment.

I haven't combed through the data in a minute, but I want to also say that they're also leading in fossil fuel deployment too. Probably is due to their population size than anything else.

Don't worry though: America can't stand that China is doing better than them at something, so we're going to try to punish them and frame them as the bad guys since America can be the only one espousing leadership, not the Big Bad East.

[–] seeyouatthepartyrichter 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Are China the good guys now?

I said on Facebook this morning: "I'm sorry Americans, I hate this for you" and caught a 30 day ban. Amazing. I am so sorry.

[–] Bytemeister 64 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Just give Facebook a permaban. Them banning you is like your boss writing you up for having the best attendance.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It's hard as all my Livejournal friends are there. I hate it so much though.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Livejournal

That's a name that I've not heard in a long time.

Don't you just love freedom of speech?

[–] BonesOfTheMoon 42 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I feel like they've been waiting for a chance to do this. I got similarly banned after Roe vs Wade was overturned when I offered to mail abortion pills to Americans. Vice interviewed me about it.

[–] kreskin 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I am really wondering if comments will start being unsafe with a lessened expectation of free speech continuing and revenge being the new normal. Im going to start a new account thats not linked to my email address. I'd suggest everyone else do the same.

Look on the bright side, late night political humor is going to get more interesting. They are putting RFK Jr in charge of key public health industries, which is going to create an entertaining amount of karma.

I do hope that the US is able to rush some Ukraine aid, but it does look like Europe is also going to have a hard road ahead. This isn't just Trump winning out, it is a form of undermining democracies winning out, and it will continue to spread much quicker now.

yep. the lofty goals of clean, cool future are wiped away and replaced with the more basement boons of high, fast burn out.

Just hand it over to the apes.

Oh wait, we did.
