Not everyone shares your value system. (I do, but that's beside the point.) You never know when the person you're responding to might be Pentti Linkola.

- NotPaidToPost 7y agoI'm obviously not Pentti Linkola, nor do I prefer or support dictatorship. The point is that we're told that we are in a climate an environmental emergency situation. But what are the emergency measures we take to respond to that? Nothing. Oh yes we want to ban plastic straws... We are not doing anything now and the situation can only become much worse with the projected population growth (which is one of the root causes of our environmental problems). This is the reality.
- yters 7y agoIt's not about value systems. I'm pointing out the supposed humanitarian reasoning guiding these draconian ideas is in actuality just plain old human selfishness: the self selected elite want to preserve themselves and the small number of the rest of their fellow human beings they find useful in some way. Nothing truly principled and moral about the reasoning going on here.
