Subject: Re: [unSYSTEM] Your Thoughts on Extinction Rebellion?
We disagree on where the dangerous power hungry people sit, not whether
they exist. I tend to locate them directly above oil wells extracting petro
dollars from the rest of the world. The type who desperatly wants the world
to believe that no harm is coming from them and nobody could possibly
benefit from a decentralized solar energy supply. The type who hires former
tobacco-is-good-for-you consultants to claim climate science was
pseudoscience.

Suggesting to dig into the actual physics before calling making a call
instead of comparing the political coms of Extinction Rebellion to those of
Saudi Arabia, both simplfy, just one is backed up by a gazillion of
high-res physical models and data and the other backed by a gazillion
dollars. Blackbody radiation models are pretty solid and so are absorption
spectra. You don't have to experiment in outer space to build models, core
physical laws apply all over the universe for all we know. Nobody wants
"All out acceptance", accepting a few % probability that CO2 is the leading
cause of a mass extinction event that can possibly include homo sapiens in
the next 2-300 years is enough.

And yes, in contrast to extinction rebellion I do advocate for bombing the
shit out of oil refineries, fracking sides and coal fired power plants and
hope to cough up enough cash to fund the development of an
assassination-market-style betting market for ecoterrorism soon. So much
for unSystem ethos ;-)

Also, you've obviously never been to Kenya and keep misreading my posts on
the hyper fast adoption of mobile technology there. Their GDP wasn't
increased by 30%, but 30% of all financial transactions in the country are
phone-to-phone.
