    population x individual emissions = global emissions

    Which number you want to change says a lot about your politics.

    edit: given it’s the daily mail *spits on the ground* it’s very likely the researchers didn’t even say anything about which number to tune, the daily mail just added their special flavor to the headline. (probably also have a good idea which 4 billion has to go)

    It’s called cognitive dissonance, the less your worldview makes sense the more tiresome it becomes to hear counter arguments. You used to be able to just dismiss them as „russian trolls“ but now that doesn’t feel right anymore, you feel like you actually have to engage, and this takes energy. Much easier to just shut it out completely, just take comfort in your personal bubble, and only engage with straw men arguments, the ones that are obviously wrong (and hence not used by anyone).

    Have fun in your bubble, have fun believing that Russia is gonna collapse any day now for the coming 8 years, the 57th nuclear sanctions package is really gonna do it, have fun believing that the army that spent 4 years taking Sheviakivka is gonna be in Berlin the week after, have fun thinking the people that sold you the Gaza genocide have the best intentions when they say war is the only answer in Ukraine, wish you all the best.









  • US == two imperialist parties + imperialist media + imperialist oligarchs

    Why would the US do imperialism???

    Also good question: why are all countries on the US not-nice list so concerned with attaining nukes and not being surrounded by US allies?

    It must surely be because they are evil autocracies that hate democracy and human rights (unlike the US which loves both of those things, and would never ever infringe on human rights on an industrial scale, if a (democratically elected or not) government nationalized key resources)

    (Sorry I‘m quite frustrated at the prospect of another useless war, and having to eat all the bullshit propaganda that is going to be produced in support of it, while at the same time seeing daily images of indescribable human misery.)
