Hahaha, that's fucking awesome. Good on 'em. Break Shell. Break petrochemicals. Disgusting, nasty, lying abominations of industry.

[-] aleats 15 points 5 months ago

Breaking petrochemicals is exactly how we got into this mess though.

You're a shill. The entire petrochemical industry should be obliterated, and anyone who says different is arguably an enemy to the planet.

I don't fucking joke about this shit. This is a blood feud on a scale the planet has never encountered before, and it's only going to get worse as the industry causes everything's extinction. This abomination of corporation will be destroyed, one way or another.

It was a high iq joke, chill.

It wasn't a good one because that isn't even the right term. Doesn't really matter, the point stands. I'm not gonna chill about innocent people dying for these greedy corporations and you thinking I should is fucking sad.

Synonyms. The wikipedia article uses the word 'breaking' many times.

Doesn't really matter, the point stands.

Uhh. First, what point? Second, no, it doesn't.

I'm not gonna chill about innocent people dying for these greedy corporations and you thinking I should is fucking sad.

wtf. Nobody said or implied anything even close to this.

Is this really better for you than just admitting you missed a joke? Wow.

[-] emptiestplace@lemmy.ml 5 points 5 months ago

Please calm your shit and focus on feeling embarrassed.

[-] MercurySunrise@slrpnk.net 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I am embarrassed, for you all. The planet's dying, and y'all are fine with it. Nothing more embarrassing than that. Y'all genuinely make me wish I wasn't part of the human species. At least the people that care enough to take action like in the post remind me that not all of us are stupidly evil. Hard to tell that from the internet, anymore.

Update: this is why you use /s, on the internet. Unless the comment is so incredibly outlandish it can without doubt not be taken seriously, it's liable to be misinterpreted. I've heard arguments like you made before "in genuine" because people are paid to say terrible wrong shit by this industry. Anything that can be construed as support for them or an attack of their competitors must be clarified as a joke if you don't want people to get (fairly) pissed.

Everyone here is on your side wrt petrochemical companies, you're just being dense af.

[-] MercurySunrise@slrpnk.net 1 points 5 months ago

No, I'm being upfront. If y'all really feel this strongly for beating around the bush, good luck getting anything done in time.

[-] MercurySunrise@slrpnk.net 3 points 5 months ago

Big oil motherfuckers should get the guillotine.

This is the way. Blocking roads and making people late for work is not effective. Deface their advertising on a mass scale. Deny them their propaganda.

[-] drkt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 5 months ago

You go to jail either way, so why not do some actual damage?

I'm sure the Shell execs are crying over supper about this...

But my funco pops...
