It wasn’t my answer, but I’ll play the part.

I agree with you in cases where individual change is hard, costly and has barely any influence on the big picture (like your “individual CO2 footprint”). But in this case the individual solution is to quit using a terrible browser and install a free extension in the new one, and it has all the impact it needs because it makes the problem go away. I can’t take anybody seriously who will willingly put themselves through youtube ads when they are this easily avoided.

The problem stays the same, why should the answer change?

Quit threatening and do it already!

for right-wingers, there’s nothing rational about their political decisions.

I agree. But what we’re seeing is voter migration from e.g. the social democrats to the fascists. Those can’t all be “hardened” right wingers (yet) who are lost to democracy. Otherwise, why would they ever have voted social democrat before? There’s a lot of people who are disappointed with politics and feel that no government ever did anything for them. But they turn to the people who openly tell them that they’ll fuck them over even worse.

And now that they’re disappointed with him, polls move further to the right, so they still don’t get the problem.

Final Fantasy 7 (the original). With so many singing it’s praises, I figured I should try and finish it once. I just got out of the desert prison. I have to say, so far I don’t really get the hype.

It’s a very stupid way to reduce CO2 and they knew this when they started it.

That’s the cost of around 20 GW in wind turbines btw.

They are on lemmy too.

Don’t forget the slave labor.
