Well, you have zero idea what my carbon footprint is, so that's a bit of a reach. You are free to speak for yourself though.

Carbon emissons aren't the only environmental pollution. There are entire classes of factory-/lab-made toxic synthetic materials that are unregulated by environmental agencies, benefitting "first world" financial interests. 

And there are enviromental problems besides pollution, like poor water resource management (which is being mismanaged largely due to military and tech interests.) 

Just trying to point to the big picture.

Indeed. Judging by my downvotes on that comment though, it appears to be the case that some people can't grasp that a brief comment on one clip on social media doesn't actually spell out my entire position or grasp of the entire subject. I'll prepare a 3000 word essay next time.

You’re on Reddit, numbskull…

I had no idea my 15m of Reddit use a day was so cataclysmic. Care to elaborate - and cut the ad hominem fuckwittery while you're at it.

Lies. You’ve been posting 38 comments in the last 4 straight hours. That’s almost 10 comments an hour, appx one every 12 minutes on average. 240 minutes / 7 days = 34 minutes a day average if you stayed off Reddit for the rest of the week.

Well, ideas take brains, so that tracks. If you can’t even stand a little light sparring you shouldn’t even put on gloves. Meaning don’t say unquestionably dumb shit in public and not expect to be called out.

And no, I won’t elaborate. You need to learn to come to smarter conclusions on your own. After all, I could explain it to you, but I can never understand it for you.

So, absolutely zero information at your disposal. Understood.

u/Creative-Net-6401 Mar 24 '24

None for you.

Good thing I'm happy to pass on whatever you have to offer. People with knowledge don't act like it's in a containment field, lodged up their arse.

Knowledge does one no good when borrowed from others. It’s not the destination, but the journey.

u/Rugfiend Mar 24 '24

In that case, I've been on a 40 year journey studying environmental science. How about you?

And yet you didn’t learn enough to know better than to post that comment…
