Reply #6: "Politically untenable"

[Dead_Parrot]

It's a shame that most of the things we could do to save ourselves - cut down on transport and power use, grow locally, recycle, stop buying landfill crap (and move out of the fucking desert, you retards) simply can't happen because most people are, at the end of the day, stupid.

Or maybe ignorant, if you want to be generous.

The 10% of us who give a shit have to come up with something the other 90% will agree to - and that doesn't involve growing your own potatoes, buying organic, or - God forbid - walking, it involves big-ass TVs with a million channels, having every possible shop in one giant mall so you don't have to think, and cars bigger than houses. Personally, I'm surprised we don't have drive-thru toilets.
