I see that. I also see palentir and formerly Tesla getting massive subsidies and tax breaks for double subsidies. I also get these are people who plan on centuries, rather than decades, and there won't be decades left, at this rate. I must be missing something somewhere, unless it's simply spite?
Sorry, comrade, I'm not trying to bust your chops, it's just I'm clearly missing something.
I think Tesla is just a straight up scam, and Palentir is doing surveillance. These aren't really companies that are going to drive a shift away from fossil fuels. It could be that the rich are just planning to ride out the climate disaster in their bunkers too. Or that they're oblivious. Many of them are old as well and perhaps think that the big disasters will start after they're dead anyways.
Fair enough. I've heard "who cares, we'll be dead!" more times than I can count.
