Comment on Real talk
IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoThere were fewer humans a century ago. and there were no human caused ecological crisis back then.
it isn’t the number of people really, but the exploitative economic system they use.

There were also infinitely fewer people concerned about humans’ ecological impact and no effective way to change that. Now we have millions and millions of people all over the world worried about it and we are all interconnected via the internet. We caused a mass extinction with a million of us in disparate tribes, just imagine what we could accomplish if all 8 billion of us actually worked together toward changing the world for the better! Unfortunately we’re still stuck in stupid tribes, and the most powerful tribe that controls every aspect of life in every other tribe is obsessed with destroying the Earth at a never-ending, ever-increasing pace. Here in America, our ruling class is literally trying to bring about the apocalypse. But naw, getting rid of them couldn’t possibly lead to any kind of benefit, we better get let them burn it all down in the name of line-go-up 🙄🙄🙄

No human caused ecological crises during the height of industrialization? Sure bud.

Sarcasm is dead and .ml killed it.

Deadpan sarcasm doesn’t translate well from a verbal medium to a written medium.
Unless you’re in an echo chamber…

I honestly believe that the more extreme .ml users will be chasing off new users coming to the fediverse, since they have the largest communities.
Which is a shame.
