    What you’re saying isn’t entirely false, but it sure is bending over backwards to be nice to the capitalist societies that caused this problem.

    Humanity caused this problem, not capitalism. It’s not like commies never burn CO2 to keep things running.

    Again oil companies will always protect their businesses at all costs, specially since they invested billions into exploring new oil sources. If governments are letting themselves being so influenced by lobbies, the problem isn’t capitalism, it’s the politicians.

      Damn, you are powerfully ignorant.

      The obsessive attempts to use communism like a cudgel just makes you sound like a indoctrinated tool who needs to open a book.

      The red scare is over dude. And I don’t know if you noticed but no one is buying your uninformed bs.

              Oh I’m sorry you don’t like being called out when spreading misinformation. Especially when you are so unjustifiably confident in your falsehoods and unwilling to even attempt to learn the basics of what you are talking about. Misinformation is a plague and being nice to people spreading it is a disservice to everyone else. Your hurt fee fees mean less than nothing to me when you are making the world worse by spreading BS.

              However If I was trying to be toxic I would say something like: Your mom and dad must be disappointed in themselves knowing that they failed so spectacularly as parents.

              Good thing I didn’t!
