I suppose your argument has a couple of things going for it. First you don’t need to change your own behaviour. Second you get to blame someone else for the problems you have created. You will find it painful though, when you are inevitably forced to change.

That's the key thing. If some group has more emissions than me I can always just blame them first even if I'm contributing to the problem. The objective isn't solving the problem. The objective is to allow me to maximize my share of the pie by using rhetoric to claim that some arbitrary group of people are equivalent to others. So I live guilt-free so long as Switzerland emits what it does. Once Switzerland and I have emitted the total equal amount of CO2, we can consider ourselves equally liable.
