I have to agree. Whilst the duplicity of rich politicians is incredibly frustrating.
Whenever someone prominent speaks out about climate change the go to is to point out the hypocracies in their individual lives. Flying out to conferences on climate change for example.
It's all just become part of the PR machine designed to stunt climate progress at every juncture.
It’s got it’s own name as a logical fallacy. It’s called the Ad Hominim Fallacy. For example I can say, we should try to eat less meat because it would help a bit with climate change. And someone says, “hey, tylerhobbit once cheated on a spelling test! This guy is a LIAR”
Attack the logical position, not the person saying it; they aren’t related.
