is there any philosophy duller and less sincere than climate doomerism

you don't think "we're" doomed, you think other people are going to die and you're going to be fine, if elegaically sad. and/or it's the narcissism of believing that once you've lived to the end of your natural life the world itself may as well be over

watching Planet of the Humans and it's like, did you know that giant corporations and big wealthy charities lie about how virtuous they are??? omg really

how come well-meaning environmentalists living in a capitalist society are not able to create renewable energy sources that overthrow the primary interests of extremely wealthy capitalists? make u think

me: but the energy you used to make this documentary--it came from the coal-powered grid, right? and the batteries in your cameras are made from rare earth metals, yes?

jeff gibbs: oh shit. oh fuck.

"it was becoming clear that what we had been calling green, renewable energy and industrial civilization are one and the same" why is that, does it begin with a c and end in an apitalism

lmao no they blame it on too many humans, and our Greed and Excess, which is apparently an innate encoded quality of our species (404 genetic structure not found)

hmmm almost everybody they interviewed for this entire documentary is white, wonder if there is some connection between that and a belief that "human population" (aka other people not us) needs to curbed

ah, finally in the last half hour we come to capitalism as the problem. what an incredible exercise in burying the lede

would you believe that in the very end the true villain is not capitalism or even "the carbon dioxide molecule" but........"us"?????????????????????????????????????????

the incredible temerity of showing indigenous Brazilians crying out "we're human beings!" as their rainforest homes are destroyed, and then ending your documentary with "humans are the problem because we're greedy and we love infinite growth"
