People with not as much wealth are more reasonable or something?
I don't buy it.
We're talking about a conference that apparently puts itself up for sale in a way ... that's the problem. The other stuff is a silly distraction. You're not solving anything with a personal wreath rule, conference is still for sale. Dude with slightly less wealth is going to just buy in...
- bambax 2y ago> People with not as much wealth are more reasonable Oh, no. But they have less power and less influence, and are more likely to fly commercial when they come talk to a conference, so have lower emissions. Also, I'm talking more in general: we should absolutely not listen to billionaires, even those few who, unlike Musk, haven't yet gone completely insane.
- duxup 2y agoDo they have less power? The conference is for sale ... whomever pays apparently makes that call.
