    "Saving humanity from the sins of the west and their ideological indoctrination is also not political. "

    • Osama Bin Laden (probably)

    Just call it what it is then say it's justified if you think it is. If you can dress this up as not terrorism then nothing is.

    One is literally happening outside as we speak, one is based upon an extremist interpretation of a 2000 year old book. Can you spot the difference?

    The existence of God is unfalsifiable, so you can't say it's untrue to the believer. Just make the rules and play by them. Also it's more like 1500 years ago 🤓.

    🤷 Guess we'll just have to let oil companies keep killing us all.

    In which scenario do you think that you're gonna live for longer and/or with a higher quality of life.

    • Mass blowing up and destruction of fossil fuel infrastructure
    • The status quo

    Think about the implications of each scenario and let me know.

    I think you're an idiot if you think it's the status quo. Even if we stopped producing fossil fuels tomorrow its too late to undo what we've already set in motion anyway.

    If we stopped producing fossil fuels tomorrow, you don't think they're gonna be mass famines and global economic collapse?

    We depend so much already on fossil fuels. The solution is to invest more into renewables and plastic alternatives, not to rip it out without proper work to avoid disaster.
