Everything is looking orange

I wish people would stop looking back to ww2 for inspiration. It was 80 years ago and no longer relevant.

How did you get that from my post?
The point is that everyone thought it was the end of the world most decades for the last millenium.
Eucalyptus trees abiding by their natural life cycle doesn't signify the end of the world just because people built houses amongst them.

It's hardly a new thing, why do we have to create a bullshit self flaggelating scenario for a natural occurrence that's been happening for ever.

Am I the only person in the world that remembers the Ash Wednesday fires of '83 in first person? People are carrying on like this never happened before.
Global warming? I bet they were saying that when earth was coming out of ice age too.

You should watch the movie Kingdom of heaven (directors cut of course)

Greta and her cultists are just as bad as the crusader knights from 1000 years ago.

Great movie.

Negative points for being a tit. The difference being that Greta and her cultists make several exceptionally good points that aren't addressed. They're ignored because the CO2 (CO2+) argument has the potential for there being some potentially rather large holes in it, and therefore as the narrative sees it take center stage so that the brainwashed see witches everywhere by association. That does not mean that Greta and her cultists don't have many good points, but you know, witches witches everywhere.

Difference was the end would have been from the push of a button. Now it's slow strangulation by ourselves, but don't worry as long as your portfolio is healthy, then it don't matter.

She's just trying to help.

Yeah, we've found ourselves in an interesting phase. Everyone collectively taking responsibility for the follies of the world, yet unable to take personal responsibility for their own individual fuck ups on a day to day basis.
I wonder what the trendy thing to do will be next decade.

I wonder what the trendy thing to do will be next decade.

Hopefully murdering environment destroying capitalists.

[sidecar bob]

Hopefully murdering environment destroy ing capitalists.

Hopefully, because that will give the unemployed an out.

[Voltaire]

I could start a ridiculous argument about who is the most brainwashed, but I think MontyPython already covered that one.

I wish people would stop quoting Monty Python. It was 50 years ago and no longer relevant.

I have memories of drinks coming in glass bottles that we took back for recycling, water came from the tap.
Groceries used to come in paper bags.
I think we had one phone that lasted for years.
Used to walk or ride a bicycle to school.
Takeaways were wrapped up in newspapers.
Stuff was expensive so it lasted for years.


I wonder if the consumers have any part to play?

Specsavers will help your incredibly bad shortsightedness

It's art so it's relevance is not important. Still funny though.

Yes they do, also producers and marketing. Designed obsolescence is a thing taught in marketing degrees for example.

I guess they were saying that in 66AD

And also the Black Saturday 2009 - one of my friends and his wife were among the 119 who died (at Marysville) The tragedy is that no-one seems to be learning anything from these repeated disasters.

You are clearly here for the full half hour arguement!
