Don't do this, but remember: the richer a person is, the bigger the ecological footprint. You are higher on that list than you might realize. Especially ecofascists tend to forget that fact.

Yeah - everyone is shitting on the top 1% here in Germany until they realize that half the population here makes it into that percentile and suddenly it's the 0,1% that's the problem.

It's all about putting the blame on someone else so you don't have to question if you might be a little bit responsible, too, with your lifestyle...

That's not how math works. Half the population is 50% not 1%

I was talking about the global 1% since that's usually what those kind of stats are aimed at

Are you implying that the climate crisis is a global issue? I thought it's all about recycling

Recycling and liking pictures of polar bears.
