    They know how to meet climate goals.

    They’re just not sure how to do it while keeping power centralised in the same hands that currently hold it.

    Remember in the 00s and 10s when tech companies promised they could solve every single problem, then proceeded to make everything worse?

    Kind of like speeding toward a cliff but he doesn’t think we can stop in time. Instead, he wants to floor it in the hopes of hopping the gap and landing safely on the other side.

    That is certainly one of the ideas I’ve ever heard.

    Unhinged AI will solve anything human made by getting us killed. That will work very fast because there is no “human made” climate change when there is “no human”.

    I also hate how they went from “human made climate change does not exist so we can keep everything as it is” to “we can’t meet the goals anyway so we can keep everything as it is” and how many people fall for it.

    They want to keep their money and power at all cost and at this point I question more and more if we can take it from them peacfully. We have to take it to make a better world possible or even survival possible, because they will not be helpful ever.

        Maybe someone could give me an update since I haven’t worn my tinfoil hat in a while, but wasn’t Gates buying up land along the Mississippi that will be prime farming land someday once climate change has progressed far enough?

        LOL.

        no.

        first of all everyone is doing something with the money one has.

        second: no. bill only did bad things. its always a scam. just like elons boring company is a shill to disrupt building a railroadnetwork, EVERYTHING bill ever did had the same angle: money.

        the bill&murdermelindagates foundation gave money to ny stock guy, stock guy bought options on food, food prices in africa rise, more people get sick, Bill&Scumlinda "chip in with vaccines and other shit they already invested in. just using a microsoft product makes you part of the problem.

    Possible translation: “Let the wealthiest among us consolidate even more wealth while we wreck shit for the rest of you. We’d like to have complete control over you rubes while shit gets worse.

    ETA: This is exactly the same rhetoric that oil and gas companies (and the politicians who’ve effectively been bought out by them) have used to justify further expansion well after knowing the danger that this poses.
