Can you provide evidence that billionaires yachts cause more environmental damage than say average people using their car.
I’d be really interested to to how billionaires are solely responsible for this mess.
Edit: Congratulations everyone. The oil and gas industries do not want individuals to feel responsible for climate change and want them to push the blame elsewhere so everyone keeps consuming. You’re doing what they want. This is bang out of the oil and gas playbook.
by sacrificing the planet we’ve successfully prevented a few billionaires from having to sell their yachts
They are directly saying that we sacrificed the planet to allow billionaires to have yachts. It’s right there.
There is a huge danger in this world that nobody is taking action for the damage they are doing to the world. If billionaires have done no damage to the world then what? Everything is fine and we can go on living the way we are? No. The world’s fucked because of everyday people.
The average person needs to change and consume less and pollute less. Blaming billionaires for everything and acting like the everyday person is innocent is exactly what the billionaires want because then you just consume the stuff they sell and they get richer and the world gets worse.
The only way to fix this world is if everyone consumes less. Deflecting isn’t helping the planet.
You know, I don’t disagree with your ultimate point. But if you look through this comment chain you should recognize that the way you chose to make it is:
Needlessly antagonistic, and (therefore)
Not very effective
If you wanted to convince anyone or provoke interesting discussion I think you failed.
In the future, you should just make your argument/statement instead of asking “clever” bad faith questions.

That is soooo far from the point that it’s not even funny. Nice straw man though
