  • I’m not a scientist, I don’t know one way or the other if there are “cleaner” fossil fuels. But I believe the Exxon CEO when he claims there are.

    Hanlon’s Razor doesn’t apply to CEOs. It’s always 100% conscious malicious choices.

    While it’s easy to believe Exxon would make up “we could have done it cleaner but it cost more than the market would bear” its much more in tune with big oil’s real strategy of “we absolutely knew about it and beyond doing nothing, we actively suppressed action about it and spent a lot of money ensuring no one else would too.”






  • Humans have hit living things with sticks and rocks since we learned it hurts them more than us. You can’t blame patriarchy or the media for that.

    Hate and fear are inherent to people. But that’s like how we have an inherent appetite for sugar, fat, and salt.

    Love is like exercise. Sometimes kids want to do nothing, sometimes all they want to do it run around. They need to learn that it is good for them and ultimately makes them feel good. Some do on their own, some need to be taught, and some don’t learn it and make a point to avoid it. And the longer you go without doing it, the harder it is to start again.

    We built societies and civilizations on the very idea of being greater than our nature.
