this volunteering would help both the person doing it and the people they volunteer to help but, no, doomposting is the light.

you can help people and also doompost on cspam. you don't have to pick one

What's an eco fascist anyway it seems a lot like the word tankie

If it just means someone who doesn't give a poo poo if non whites die from climate change why don't we just call them Americans or Europeans

an eco fascist is a fascist with 100% recycled internal microplastics and their packaging implies sustainability

It's quite common in the English speaking world. Calling someone a 'pedo guy' means creepy. If you did a search or asked someone what it means it would be a creepy.

Americans don't care about Americans dying either. As evidenced by them being the primary factor in the world we all have to live on literally dying.

I'm more concerned with the batshit insane responses to good suggestions and also the defense of a crazy racist who threatened to harm themselves, which I guess thread talked them out of. That being the banning of Rime, which has the thread up in arms.

Working with special needs kids knowing all of the stuff I've learned from this thread would probably be legit the most depressing job in the world. I don't think I could look them in the eye knowing what the future has in store for them. I probably wouldn't last a week before I burned out and quit

I'm trying to square "the world is doomed and nothing matters" with "the moderation on these dying forums is awful and needs to change" as a coherent worldview.

edit: but seriously I get it, you can effect change on these forums but not in the wider world, but the contrast is pretty silly

joker laughing with our pals is all we have left to look forward to in the world and the mods are trying to take that from us with bullshit specious ban+30s

Rime gets punished for every lovely thing he says, which is fine and good. He didn't say anything lovely there, objectively, and still got punished for having a "bad rap sheet" or whatever. That's horsecrap. If you think he's a bad poster then queue a perma and say it's not for that post but for a pattern of behavior like with everybody else in that situation.

okay.

so vague accusations of being a pedophile and also telling someone that doomposting is actually better than helping real, living people are sane responses how?

And if you read my followup post it was because I have volunteered with kids and it makes me thoroughly depressed.


No part of my post implied dude was a pedo.

I don't give a gently caress about your weird posting meta argument and my response had nothing to do with it, I'm just responding to the post from the person you're white knighting on its merits. It's cool that they know little enough about biosphere collapse that they can sleep at night doing that job but don't recommend it to me because I couldn't. Ignorance is bliss and all that

this is the climate change thread, its always going to be batshit insane because it is a batshit insane situation we are in. luckily there is another climate change thread but oh no wait that one is batshit insane, as well just in the other direction where Everything is Fine and it'll work itself out don't worry or think about it

like even this whole coversation is batshit insane. you're posting about being concerned about posting in the thread about the planet dying
