I think it makes perfect sense. Why should I accept what someone says about the sky is falling (failing?) if they are not dedicated to preventing it? It's the classic "Do as I say, not as I do."

Why should I tolerate being called a climate denier and a science denier by someone who owns an over-powered, over-consuming automobile that is essentially in its lowest trim level an economy car? Such a person is saying that my actions are harming the earth for future generations because I am damaging the climate now. My logical response to such a person is, "FU, you start first." Driving an over-powered, over-consuming automobile is evidence their concern is not what they say it is.

This is the issue with those who meet in Davos.

Are you talking about my car as the “lowest level trim level of an economy car?” Fuck you. Are you paying for it? Maybe I drive it because that’s all the car I need, it’s what I can afford, or it’s what I’m willing to pay for a car. Whatever the reason is none of your damn business. When you buy my car, you can tell me what to drive. If you actually live in the US, you should know that there are a whole lot bigger and less efficient cars I could be driving instead of my M340. And to be clear, I’m not the one saying your actions or my actions are harming the climate. Overwhelming numbers of scientists are saying it - if you don’t like it or don’t believe it, publish your research refuting their claims. Otherwise, you’re just another troll prolonging an argument that’s long run it’s course. Nice hobby.

Calm down son. I could give a rat's ass about your car. The 3-series, at the lowest trim level (in Europe) is an economy car, a taxi, and a police car. That's what I said. Check your ego at the door. I wasn't wasting my time trying to insult your car, so calm down. People of your [******] thinking are just so filled with hate you just can't tell when others are having a discussion rather than trying to insult. You preach tolerance but don't practice tolerance. Not everyone is trying to hurt you.

You need to be more clear in your communication. I don’t give a flying fuck what a 3 Series is in Europe. I live in the United States. Supposedly you do too. Now I just think you and that other profile obsessed with Davos conspiracy theories are the same person. Sad and really damn weird.
