lol good will is dangerous? You manage to invoke Hitler from saving shower water. You can spin anything to look like its looming Fascism, but I suspect you've been reading a bit too much Erich Fromm.
I invoke Godwin's law. Wanting to save water fascist? Jesus man, get a grip. Is everything that might inconvenience you in any way a danger of fascism?
In Atlanta, we've had a drought - we use almost all our local reservoir for non-industrial use. We almost went on rationing last year. If we had more efficient appliances, we wouldn't be in such trouble. Is that fascist?

"It is quite possible that fanatical ecologism will be the great blight of the 21st century, as fanatical nationalism was the great blight of the 20th." "Throughout history, this sort of thing has led to tyrants and other political disasters." The connection with tyranny is so tenuous that its hilarious that its being upvoted. "People are motivated. That is dangerous." Really says a lot about the Hacker News audience.
