      Don’t forget the O&G lobbyists bribing the government to not fund public transit, build roads over rail infrastructure, push for the creation of suburbia and the American dream which are known as the single biggest wastes of resources in modern civilization, dismantle or repeal any green initiatives, destroy any environmental legislature, force pro O&G curriculums in schools, pay for pro O&G advertising and marketing targeting children, fund pro pollution disinformation campaigns, bribe pro pollution scientists to hide or discredit real science, etc etc etc

      This is about as insightful as “you say you don’t want to support capitalism, yet you’re alive, curious”.

      Yeah, I turned on the light. No I didn’t select the power source or the million regulations, payoffs, bribes, and research that determine where it comes from.

        They didn’t say “turned on the light” they said “keeping your lights on”. If you have to change somebody’s words it means you got nuthin’.
