I have no idea why people would upvote a junk article like this.
It has two cheap rhetorical ploys.
First, a crude and disgusting analogy with rape, of all things. (There's a much better analogy to the governmental action that stopped CFCs, and actually worked.)
Second, an accusation of hypocrisy that is completely without actual facts.
And more important: so what if some elites who profess to care about climate change fly too much? It's deeply un-serious to demand pure motives on the part of everyone who professes a certain policy, before taking action.
