what do you expect people to do? go full kaczynski and live in a cabin in the woods? and if that's not acceptable for the person, they might as well burn down the amazon cause that's basically the same anyway?

are you okay? are you having some mental issues? there are people that can help you.

this extreme black/white thinking combined with a defeatist attitude can't be healthy in the long term, for you or the rest of the planet

No, that's exactly what I'm trying to highlight. This person is criticizing others for using technology/electricity, while doing the exact same thing themselves. It's hypocritical. There's nothing that can be done until the system itself changes. Criticizing others does nothing but highlight the fact that you're an idiot who is falling for the propaganda to keep people fighting amongst themselves, rather than targeting the system itself.

you're doing a horrible job, might wanna rethink your methods

No one is paying me for this job, and it's doomed to fail. It's like yelling into the void. Whether I do it at one decibel level or another, the outcome is identical.
