Making Behaving Like A Decent and Sensible Human Being Into A Time Consuming and Expensive Hobby Annoys Me

For example living in a way that doesn’t destroy the environment too extensively doesn’t have to involve hemp yoga pants, and certainly should not involve organic farming (organic farming is the opposite of environmentally sound or sustainable).  It doesn’t mean giving up gift wrap, or lipstick, it means supporting technological advancement towards a better future, it means supporting space exploration so that we can spread ourselves out, and not put excessive stress on one place.

The paper mache and bullshit “green” movement just annoys the fuck out of me.

When you make it a lifestyle you make the common sense and workable solutions seem unimportant.  That shit causes people to dismiss the whole damn thing as “too hard”.

I don’t think your sense of white upper middle class superiority is worth the destruction of the planet.
