Jumping right to blaming the victims.
I think they should do things to that Shell facility
I see Shell is being Shell. I’ve been boycotting this company since the 1990’s when I first heard about Shell’s misuse of its influence on the Nigerian government (they were influential in the persecution of environmental activists and the hanging of the famous poet and activist Ken Saro-Wiwa) and them sweeping the open environmental desaster in the Niger Delta region under the rug.
People rage against Nestle. She’ll is right up there with them, trying to get away with destroying the environment where they can and avoiding environmental protection wherever they can get away with it.
“Oil is a natural substance so it doesn’t pollute anything”. - A liberal.
I think you got downvoted because people thought you meant liberal in the American sense, rather than the “status quo neoliberal” sense
Liberals in america literally said Oil doesn’t pollute the ocean because it’s a natural substance.
What I meant was “the common person in the US generally has learned the term ‘liberal’ as vaguely meaning ‘progressive’ or ‘byname for the Democrat party’”, and will not understand that you’re using the term in the ‘neoliberal,which encompasses both primary US parties, so it’s here a byname for capitalist’ sense
and that that’s probably why they’re downvoting your comment
