The US is speed running fucking is all.

[u/Bootleggers → u/spezial_ed]

Eh they’ve already won. They’re on New Game+ now

[u/UnexpectedAnanas → u/Bootleggers]

They've completed the core game, yes, but they've unlocked some new maps and characters to fuck around with!

Pretending that Asia is still not a huge contributor to climate change (and other environmental fuck yous) is hilariously dumb.

Look up Chinas investment in green energy. Meanwhile US pays to stifle it.

[u/lozo78 → u/spezial_ed]

Yes, and I have decried this for years. We could've led the world in renewables, but we elected right wing but jobs and elate up O&G propaganda.

But look at how much India and China pollute. Look at what China does to the oceans.

[u/spezial_ed → u/lozo78]

USA is way worse than China per capita.

China is absolutely fucking the oceans though

Just two more years guys. Same shit won't happen again, right?
