    Aww, these poor cruise-faring souls only wanted to pollute and consume a little, but they died instead. Tragic.

      An 80 year old woman was abandoned on a hiking trail and fell off the trail to her death. What the fuck is wrong with you

        Extremism. Somehow people like that think they’re better when they spread such callous indifference.

        Like I get it, cruises aren’t good for the environment at all but acting like someone deserved to die for it? They want to save humanity without bothering to preserve humanity.

        An orc died by its own blade, and all the other orcs rose up in ululation, for the irony was not lost upon them, and the truth hurt.

                Driving a car isn’t optional for most people. Similarly, not eating meat can be onerous in our culture. Both cars and meat eating fall under the plight of the commons.

                By contrast, taking a cruise ship is a gratuitous act of evil.

                  I’m sorry what - after that poetry about orcs, you seriously still eat meat and justify it with this self-serving excuse? No it is not onerous. You don’t even have to tell anyone. It’s easy and cheaper.

                  We can go back and forth on purity tests that conveniently favor ourselves, cheering at the deaths of commons… or you can direct your anger at systemic change that can actually help. Inb4 worthless bitter nihilism.

        They can’t, this person obvious doesn’t pollute or consume whatsoever. They have no existence at all.

        Ignore the internet posting they do, theirs isn’t in any way related to generation of electricity or anything that could possibly negatively harm the earth in any way.
