They don't care because they will be dead before they ever see the effects of their selfishness. They will literally never have any consequence.

I'm sure they know in their hearts that their descendants will suffer and die because of what they do today, but they don't plan on ever feeling bad about it because at the end they will be safe, warm and comfortable in their beds, surrounded by their loving families, after a lifetime of luxuries. Everything to gain and nothing to lose. Why not fuck the planet?

My neighbors are all republicans. Nothing will make them go quiet. Leadership could bus them and their children into a giant municipal sausage grinder and they would be babbling happily about winning right up until they died.

Every evolutionary trait is coincidence. If it was adaptation we'd be able to regrow vital organs.

No living thing has a feature "to" do anything. That implies decision making, which is intelligent design.

Tigers have spots on their ears, which can confuse attackers.

Tigers did not develop those spots "to" confuse attackers.

What if we vote and the problem continues? What if voting gives us the illusion of control?

Oh so abstinence should be the policy. Got it. Good plan.

The first time I used VI I typed a few characters, then hit backspace to delete some characters. Backspace doesn't delete characters. I closed VI and never opened it again.
