    So many logical jumps here.

    “WW3” ? wtf…

    “narrative” that wasn’t mentioned.

    The “whole economy” that also was not mentioned.

    Try responding to the comment as written, not the voices in your head and it might appear more coherent to others.

      • WW3: Russia has invaded Ukraine. Multiple countries are providing arms to the two sides.
      • narrative: The comment before mine contained that narrative. If you can’t see it there I can’t help you see it.
      • whole economy: what the poster referred to as “working from home” was actually “lockdown”. It was lockdown that cleared the pollution from the air. For some people it was working from home; for others it was being forcibly removed from their job

        Your echo chamber is showing in how much you read into things. Wow.

        Life Pro Tip for ya: Try engaging with the words on the screen as written not the voices in your head and your feed.

          Here is how I interpreted those comments:

          We need some harsh mandates. Look at what Work From Home did for wildlife and emmisions in a short amount of time.

          "During the height of the pandemic, the air got substantially better as a result of people not traveling (lockdowns)”

          We need that style of change. Big, bold, and life altering.

          “We need to be willing to disrupt people’s lives like we did during pandemic response (lockdowns)”

          But what about the feelings of rich people? They might not like that!

          “Those disruptions’ negative effects would be felt by rich people, but I don’t care about their narrow needs compared to the needs of all humanity”

          If you disagree with my interpretation, what is your interpretation (in your own words) of what was being said?

            I’d be happy to explain what they said. But you need to explain the extra leaps of logic you used to get where you did.

              I’ve answered some of your questions. It’s your turn because this conversation is unfair if I’m putting in 10x more effort than you.

                Nah. You made all the wild claims. You don’t get to shift the burden when someone calls you on your bullshit.

                If you won’t, or can’t, that’s fine. I’ll just assume you were full of shit all along and everyone else that reads this will be justified in doing the same.

                TLDR; put up or shut up.

                  Yeah that’s basically my point. I was trying to be polite with the asking for some effort on you part too, but really what I’m getting at is that you can’t provide those answers because you know the moment you enter an honest discussion you might have to step out of the inquisitor role which you obviously enjoy.

                  You win. I lose. Good night.

                    So you won’t explain yourself and try to call me the asshole for asking you to back up your claims.

                    Gotcha.

                    You can, with all due respect, fuck off now.
