    It’s like saying we have to keep supporting Israel because we don’t want to lose weapons sales. Nice name calling though. Brilliant rhetoric, really put me in my place.

    Keep flying, consuming conspicuously. Fuck everyone else. Every generation to come. Fuck the animals, fuck the earth. You got yours right?

      If you think tourism is comparable with war crimes, you are even bigger fool than I thought.

        It was an example of propping up a destructive practice for the benefit economy. One meant to illustrate dollars on an account sheet isn’t enough to justify a morally dubious practice.

        I asserted earlier that these places would be poorer for the effects of climate change. You blew right past that into name calling and and a feeble attempt at twisting my words to ridiculous lengths. Care to comment?

        Or perhaps you could explain how your gracing these places with your presence, allowing yourself to be served hand and foot, is the only path forward for these economies? There are so many ways to support a region, to lend a hand and invest in their future.

          Destroying tourism would mean destroying number of countries and ruining people lives. If you don’t understand it thank you ARE a fool - this is a reasonable assessment of your intellectual capabilities, not a name calling.

          Now, disengage, fool.
