101
Mine's a tie between a near future and a not so near future sci-fantasy bazinga take:
"Self-driving cars are the key to a post-scarcity future!" (when asked how the fuck that conclusion was drawn, I was told "do the research.")
"Even if climate change is proven to actually be a problem, climate doesn't matter in space. We can have fully sustainable cattle farms in orbit producing as much meat as we need. Elon Musk." (yes, that bazinga fuck actually said "Elon Musk" at the end of that claim like it somehow stamped a seal upon the rest of the take)
That's everyone, I even see the same stuff here. No one wants to accept how bad the situation is.
Slowing the inevitable ruination so we can live a bit longer is still possible, so at the least I'd push for that instead of "tech will fix it, this is fine" hopium or "nothing can be done, be a selfish asshole and try to shame people for caring, get schwifty" copium.
Yeah I fully believe both “We’re 100% absolutely fucked,” but also every 0.1 degree less warming means millions of deaths that don’t happen
Oh, I absolutely agree with you. But I have seen people saying if we got rid of the rich climate change would end, which just isn't the case. Even if everyone on earth died, there's plenty of change built in.
I am under no illusion that climate change will end if we got rid of the rich. The feedback loops are fully engaged, the earth has a mechanism for resetting itself and we are experiencing the beginning of that process now. I just want people to realize it is the rich that prevented anything meaningful from being done when we actually had a chance to do something. If there are survivors, they should know who was responsible.
