 Aight, I wasn't going to post the extra-spicy hot wings take. But, fuck it.

Reply-guy climate activists are the most annoying out of touch people on the planet. They'll literally show up in my mentions with shit like "why don't you bicycle down the freeway to the grocery store. You can just clench your re-usable grocery bags between your ass cheeks". 
"Need to go to NYC for an important meeting? Take the train....oh, the US doesn't have trains? Why don't you just build you own."

How someone can witness the entire covid pandemic and not only be like "yes, personal responsibility will for sure solve humanity's problems" but also propose nothing but the most braindead solutions imaginable is literally beyond me.

I get the frustration with the currency system, but annoying the shit out of random Mastodon users with the most garbage advice you can muster is just not it. Some of us are actually trying to make real systemic change.
