But convincing climate deniers to be reasonable is just one of the things an unreasonable MAGA finds impossible to do.

Young people “have skin in the game” and understand. Older people, not so much. We’ve been taught to be mindless exploiters and privileged a-holes. That’s the lesson of capitalism guiding moral decisions. Don’t do it.

All of our 2023 problems are financially-based like a Typhoid Mary of a raging epidemic. Greedy capitalists at the top of fossil fuel companies have known for half a century they were destroying the air.

Climate change isn’t about knowledge it’s about curbing the insatiable desires of greedy capitalists using their leverage to exploit every living being for their own profit, mansions, and lifestyle-of-the-rich-and-famous.
