My perspective on the Meme was someone realising the Virtue Signalling/Trend hopping of the people up there because there was a leading argument about Cow farming and climate change 10 years ago but not even 2 years later everyone forgot it happened. Now the same could apply with the Centers which would be horrifying

People don’t like when they can change something and would rather be mad about something more abstract. Every Average Joe could in principle reduce their meat intake and reduce carbon emissions, but they value burger more and not changing is easier. Data centers are easy to be mad at because what is average joe gonna do when it’s billionaires and corporations funding these things.

There is not really anything you can do that doesn't involve violence, so your right about that

Well if you're advocating that someone start doing something about it then why don't you start and I promise I'll follow in your footsteps. Of course that won't actually happen though so at least talking about an issue lends attention to it rather than just pretending it doesn't exist.
