    So you’re saying don’t look like you’re vandalizing an ancient monument during a religious festival held by nature worshipers? I agree and that was my point.

      I am somewhat undecided about this action. It gets people talking (as we’re doing now) but it may also risk turning people away from the cause, especially those who are only casually interested or aware of the facts or issues.

      But my point was your suggestion that everyone is already aware of climate change is absurd. Especially the follow up that no one can do anything about it. Sure, they’ve heard of it, but everyone is continuing to behave as if it doesn’t exist. There needs to be much greater awareness, discussion, and then action on this topic, and until such time we will need to do disruptive things to get people’s attention. I do prefer to disrupt the people most responsible, personally.

      They answered what you can do and you completely ignored it.

        I didn’t ignore it. I read it. What did you want me to say about it specifically?

          Well, something other than your usual ceaseless negativity would be refreshing.

          I don’t think I’ve ever seen you post something productive. It’s just constant negativity, pessimism, tearing other people or ideas down.

          I’ve never seen you react positively to a positive idea or add anything that would lead to any kind of actual improvement. And then when you ask “what can I possibly do” and someone replies with something you could actually do to contribute to the thing you’re complaining about, there’s no reply.

          I get that you have tough life circumstances, but you’re just not contributing anything to anyone with this stuff.

            Well then you should look through my post history to correct your hilariously false view of me.

              K, I just did. It was pretty reaffirming.

                Then you must not have been very thorough, but you go ahead and believe what you like. The amusing thing is that you’re berating me for not being productive which doesn’t sound especially productive to me. Have you thought of being more productive?

                (Also, what a corporate mindset! You must be productive even if you aren’t being paid!)

                  Who am I going to believe, my own lying eyes?

                    How about my eyes? Like the positive and productive post you made where you lied about what I said?
