and there is a threshold we can pass, that, once we do we reach essentially, a point of no return. from the amount of environmental damage we do. 

 Greta Thunberg says we have 8 years left. Do you think we are going to stop driving cars or burning coal and oil in the next 8 years?

Greta is merely a poster-child for Liberalism, and it's Green Welfare capitalism, the same goes for AOC. 

Yes, whining will do nothing, so anyone crying on twitter, that's not going to solve the problem, nor will going in the streets protesting with signs.

History has proven one effective means of achieving goals: Violence.

Around 2% of the world's global carbon emissions.

That's not really true. There are lots of examples where we've made important changes without violence, just as we have lots of examples where violence completely failed to accomplish a stated goal.

Why would you shut up climate change alarmists? Let them push stuff into your face. Shit is happening. 

 

The only reason we're not seeing straight off revolts is because climate change happens gradually. By the time people will feel compelled to revolt, the ones having caused the damage will be long gone.

Why did you think that?

Those riots were over taxes, not the paris climate agreement.

Right, fairly small. I'm still pushing for nuclear power and electric cars myself. This is a more significant place to focus.

When you've heard it before, what's it really doing for you?

I think she means that the wealthy tend the publicly promote progress but refuse to make any changes in their own lifestyles

Kinda like gun abolitionist politicians who rely on armed security guards

I mean do you figure they'd keep armed guards with them if guns were abolished? 

I think it makes the most sense that those of fear would seek protection from said fear, I mean that's like half of gun sales already, but at least like this said politicians aren't wielding the gun themselves, getting experiences with it themselves. 

This is like blaming a fashion designer for wearing a bulletproof vest.
