So your justification for owning an inefficient car is that you have a second home? I don't even know where to start with that.
"Why even enjoy anything? Why even drive? Why even go on vacations? Why even eat meat? Why even have kids? Why even socialize? Why even live outside of the matrix instead of having all your entertainment & nutrients delivered directly to your brain/veins? Why even live?"
inb4 "no arguments": parent post isn't very heavy on arguments either, it's basically just passive-aggressive moralizing.
So, generalizing your moral outrage with a passive aggressive personal attack? You win.
Just leaving this here. It needs no further explanation.
I didn't get it until recently, and this is exactly it.
If someone wants to drive an inefficient car, let them enjoy it, or push for legislations that tax those cars, you are being judgmental without affecting real change.
I don't believe I've stopped them. (If only it were that easy!)
No, it's a fair response to the the laiz a fair comment "in order to consume more than is morally acceptable (a second home, especially when others have none, but regardless), I need to drive an environmentally unfriendly car".
second or first or gazilionth home doesnt even matter.
Let's try scaling that to everyone on the planet, shall we?
