    I’m sorry but these facts completely invalidate your point.

    Points out one case where people were misled to extrapolate and invalidate every single purchase or act of consumption ever. Everywhere we turn, we are being lied to. There is not a single company on the planet - nay, universe, that has ever nor ever will provide (or try to provide) a product that pollutes less that others. We thus have no choice, and in fact never had, nor ever will have a chance of purchasing such a product, much less multiple thereof. Illusion of choice is everywhere. Resistance is futile.

    And that can only come from sensible and strong regulations and accountability towards corporations.

    But buddy, nothing we do matters! Didn’t you know the rich control everything. Voting is useless! It is an illusion of choice because they are just puppets and representatives of their wealthy masters.

    Why would you have hope, you poor imbecile. Go be a wage cuck, follow your programming, buy the next iPhone, and pick a random politician because it is just a play.

      Yeah keep believing that we will magically collectively wake up one day and we’ll all decide to stop using whatever new crap they shove down our throats. We’ll probably hold hands and sing under a rainbow as well.

      In the meantime, I’ll keep working on getting people to understand orders of magnitudes and responsibility when it comes to pollution, to get them to vote in favour of policies that help prevent abuse from corpos, and encourage them to take individual actions as well.
