    you are basically arguing for the butterfly effect. i open my car door, does that cause a typhoon in japan?

    if i did, how could it ever be proven?

    and if things are so deterministic, what is the point of making choices really?

    most of us are not that important. my vote for harris did nothing to help or harm the climate or change weather patterns. i won’t be here in 50 years, let alone 500, so it climate policy is irrelevant to me.

      I rarely come across comment chains so dumb I hope they’re trolls and not an actual person thinking that way

        I regularly come across people who insult others and claim they are superior without actually making an argument or engaging in a meaningful way.

        It’s almost like it’s easy to sit in a glass house and scream you are smart than actually going outside and interacting with people.
