  That’s fine, all I care about is being able to look my kids in the eye and tell them I tried, and what I did.

  I will be agreeing with those memes.

    Don’t get tennis elbow patting yourself on the back. Your individual actions won’t matter unless you can bring industry with you. The best way to do that is to help people gain class consciousness. The best way to do that is by not considering your individual actions as relevant.

      Weirdest leap of logic I’ve seen in a long time…

      “If you can’t change other people’s minds for them, then your personal efforts are worthless”

      I could give two shits what anyone else thinks about my efforts.

        It goes back to my original point though in that attacking other working class individuals based on birth year is just counterproductive infighting.

        The fight needs to be brought to the rich and powerful who have had the opportunity to solve climate change and other global issus but have chosen instead to enrich themselves further by making it all worse

        Of course, talk shit about any fascists you know as they all deserve their teeth kicked in but a boomer you see on the street could just as easily be a lifelong environmentalist hippie as they could be a fascist - just as anyone from any other generation could be (especially Zoomers for some unholy reason)

        TL;DR is fuck billionaires and generalising is bad
