People are stupid. They like Leftist policies, but as soon as a Leftist says them, they hate it.

Maybe - and yeah this is fucking WILD but hear me out - maybe Leftism just isn't as popular as you think it is?

That's not being rigged, it's a Democratic Party election. No shit someone from outside the party will have less influence.

Tendency to want to get in the weeds and do the work. The real job of an exec is managing people, and anything that distracts from that make the company worse.

For example, I knew a founder who skipped a meeting with potential investors because there was a bug he was figuring out. He fixed the problem, and he did it better than any other employees could have, but that's not where he was needed.

our dependency on fossil fuels hasn't changed

What is this crap? EVs are all over the place and so is renewable energy. Emmissions are falling. We haven't opened a new coal plant in a generation.

And ok, we keep driving emissions down, what about biodiversity loss across the planet? How many plants and animals are currently on the brink of extinction?

Ok? It's bad and we're working to fix it. That's very different than "we're all doomed and should stop doing anything".

Where is the international agreement to help modernize these countries with renewable energies? Who's going to pay for it?

Greenpeace spreads propaganda? Are you referring to nuclear? Because I don't think nuclear alone would have prevented this, there's still transportation, industry, and developing nations that wouldn't be able to use nuclear.

The effort is not enough...yet. As long as we don't start backsliding, we're seeing an increase in effort year over year.

the inevitable collapse

THIS is the grifter bullshit. "Don't bother acting, it's too late". Fossil fuel doomer propaganda.

 

This is so weird. In a comment, I can make a link to it that's visible from other communities. But not in the body of the post.
