I’m not surprised he’d think this. But I am that he’d be dumb enough to say it.

This tells you more how disconnected and entitled at the lack of personal consequences these people are than how stupid they are, I think.

They’re not dumb, they’re just convinced it’s not going to cause them any personal damage to say this.

  • Turning or breaking in time sounds tricky

It’s worse. Rather imagine:

  • Driving down a road that gets a little hotter every meter
  • Suggesting to speed up, because it’s not a comfortable temperature anymore, but already a bit hot, so we might as well get lethal temperatures quicker instead of stopping as long as it is still survivable

Remember: climate change is no wall, it’s gradual. Stopping at any point is better than at any later point.
