(1,085 posts)What is it that you do that is not "polluting the planet"?
You work in health care?
Are you raping the consumer with overpriced drugs that may be obsolete in twenty years? Maybe you work for a health care provider who will be put out of business when single payer finally happens? Or do you just work at the local pharmacy who will be put out of business by online drug houses?
Maybe you used to work in the auto industry?
Well fuck you, right ... just because all those jobs are no longer union and pay shit wages ... should have seen it coming. Dumbass.
Or maybe you work in finance and those jobs will be in Dubia in a decade.
Your job is all that is important, to you. It is what pays your bills and allows you to raise your family. But fuck you, your just to self important to realize how what ever it is you do for a living is destroying the planet ... you fucking dumbass.
What job does not exploit something? We can not all be climatologist and fly to UN meetings all year long, burning more fossil fuels than most families will consume in a lifetime.
So ... what is it that you do that benefits the world so much more than those who made the industrial revolution possible?
