I do things about it rather than sitting in the false comfort that I'll be unaffected as a straight, white, male.

Harm reduction is a thing though
You have to be pretty narrow minded and inexperienced to not be capable of imagining a situation where a massive pothole is unavoidable.
Of all water usage, residential is ~2/3rds and commercial is 1/3rd. It's probably the same in Austin. Go research it.
Everyone needs to conserve water.
Ohh please. They're building 1,100 units of housing for students and 125 unit for the homeless while preserving the park for community use.
These "Save XYZ" people are always the same. They want nothing to change and they consider housing to be displacement.
They're regressivism/conservatism/urban sprawl disguised as progressive action. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Students need housing. The homeless need housing. This is land that UC owns and can use for this. It's expensive enough to build housing as it is.
Only the NYTs could look at all the pro-fossil fuel insanity that has come out of this conference and say "ackshually, it's good". What a trash rag.
Probably liability
Trying to redefine antisemitism while being antisemitic yourself isn't going to fly well.
"Jews get a word because of all their propaganda" is like basic, run of the mill antisemitism.
Wow whole bunch of old man takes about computers and not a single one about public schools being systematically defunded, dismantled, and squeezed in every way possible.
That stuff was so good. Gonna have to look for it now.
Ya'll have no idea how much roads cost and it shows.
This is literally oil company propaganda. Oil extraction is an absolutely massive humanitarian cost that dwarfs all the cobalt mines in existence.
Cobalt extraction in DRC is an inexcusable humanitarian cost as well. I don't deny that.
But oil companies like to run the line that evironmentalism and exploitation of labor are going hand in hand. The truth is that exploitation and capitalism are the bedfellows and cause here. Just as they are on a much larger scale with oil. Environmentalism has nothing to do with it. Greed, racism, a long history of oppression, and the psychopaths who run our world are to blame. Not "going green".
A proper title and focus of this film would be " Making Money: The toxic cost of capitalism and greed".
