Retreat to a candle lit burrow. Don’t buy anything imported/exported on a fuel oil driven cargo ship, don’t travel on a diesel electric regional train or eat anything produced by diesel powered farm machinery.
And sit in a darkened room weeping.
Any chance of getting real?
Wow, imagine if there was only a type of technology we could invest in that was both low on emissions and affordable. Imagine if it was adopted world wide. Imagine if your economy and industry developed and marketed that break through? Imagine the potential flow on effects in a free market system.
Sorry to not fit your exhausting narrative but there are plenty of conservatives (or people who know how to read peer reviewed science) that are for fixing the planet through the gradual introduction of renewable energy. No one apart from maybe the far left is advocating turning the coal off tomorrow.
The single best bit of irony in all of the talk about LQBTI etc is that if you were indeed actual liberals, the values with which the party was founded (in classical liberalism), you wouldn’t really give a **** what people do as long as they don’t hurt others. All anyone wants is to feel included and safe in society.
The reason why people are calling this behaviour out is because they’re sick of it. The Sky News Bolt Fantasy Land Hour doesn’t equate to how the majority of people actually feel. I doubt anyone here in this thread meets the definition of a “SJW,” it’s just a normal group of people who aren’t really interested in putting up with the marginalisation of various communities without justification. Honestly, it doesn’t take much to just accept people.
