This is basically the dumbest way imaginable to move away from oil though.

Tried the smart ways for decades, soooo..

People won't accept a gas tax to fund maintenance and post-oil development, but a war and 110% price hike, sure. It's madness.

I think we're talking about a different set of 'they'

[-] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

TBF, the only worse option is to not move away from oil at all...

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Yep. All this way does is hurt the fuck out of anyone that isn't rich.

For the next few centuries at least, more people will be hurt by climate change. It's sucks for us now but it's still a net gain.

Oh I agree, 100%. My heart breaks for all the people hurting because of this greedy, gluttonous idiocy. 😔 Nonetheless, sometimes my brain is tired and I don't have the energy to articulate a more nuanced take. More and more often, in fact.

Yes capitalism is the dumbest system possible. Literally destroying the planet so a few dickheads can ride yachts.

False. Things can be both dumb and functional.

[-] Krusty@quokk.au 2 points 1 month ago

I support demand destruction of petrol, period.

Would be nice if innocent people didn't have to be killed to accomplish this.

[-] chortle_tortle@mander.xyz 3 points 1 month ago

Sure would, but the rich never make it so gentle, so we shouldn't make it gentle for them.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

So you're also happy if it happens with maximal pointless suffering of the working class? ...
