Nah, I just think that we spend too much time blaming people instead of systems. You can't change people. You can change systems which will then change people.
Cultural problems require cultural solutions.
What cultural solutions do you suggest?
Holding people accountable for their contributions to the problem.
Encouraging them to make better decisions to mitigate, and eventually reverse the damage that has been done.
That's not a solution, that's a vague idea.
How do you hold people accountable? How do you encourage them?
I'm going to ignore you now because you're just going to keep pretending not to understand what's being said because you don't like what's being said.
I see it all the time whenever someone's consumerism is threatened. Peace.
Lol how, exactly? Do you think I am the tech illiterate end user we are talking about?
Or maybe I am someone who constantly has to deal with end-users, and I'm forced to acknowledge that educating them is like trying to hold back the tide?
Systemic problems require systematic solutions. Anything less is just shouting into the wind.
