Unless you expect people to start murdering oil executives and climate denier politicians, you’re wrong. Teslas and paper staws are never going to make a difference, because consumer-level pollution isn’t the problem.
What reason is there not to be defeatist? We already fucking lost decades ago.
Well the problem with defeatism is that it’s a self-fullfilling prophecy. If you believe everything is lost you will not try to enact change.
Now I acknowledged already that it might well be too late, but I also maintain that there isn’t enough certainty in that prediction to base your actions around it.
So the reason to not be defeatist is twofold. There might be a chance to reverse or at least lessen the impact of climate change, and by being defeatist you are robbing yourself and future generations off that chance.
Very helpful spreading such a stupid mindset. First of all you could change that. Next you can get involved with politics. After that maybe donate some money and so on… Seams like there are many things one could do if the time wasn’t wasted on telling everyone there would be nothing they could do 👍

Sorry, I have to actually work for a living to keep a fucking roof over my head and food on my table. I literally couldn’t make the time if I tried, and I sure as shit don’t have the money.

What money? I live in America, where the overwhelming majority live paycheck to paycheck and struggle just to get by.
And who should I give it to? Some limp dick lobbying group pushing for glacially incremental change and that no one in government gives a fuck about? Hard pass.
But sure, keep blaming the victims and jerking off the villains. I’m sure it’ll all work out great for you.
