In what role is a person most effective at fighting climate change?
Nonexhaustive list of things I think each role does:
- Citizens vote, pressure their representatives, run for office, form parties
- Consumers choose what to buy and how to live, engage in boycotts
- Activists protest, occupy, spread the word
- Donors give money to parties, NGOs, mutual aid
So, I've had some responses with violent ideation in them.
Even if you're "just joking" or "only saying", it is not welcome in my head or on my timeline.
I had to block some nice people I don't know well, which was regrettable.
Wow, this was super contentious. Great conversations.
A *lot* of doomism. That's a bummer; it's a toxic disinformation trend that keeps smart and capable people from doing what's needed to save the planet.
If that's where your head's at, find a way out. We need your help.
My response is citizen; I think it's our best option for effecting change. It's really hard, I know.
