Burn, baby, Burn

[Yzermandius19]

if you really cared about the environment

you wouldn't be pushing for counterproductive central planning

nor would you be railing against the best solutions to the problem and seeking to prevent their implementation

 

if you want to virtue signal about the environment

at least do it properly

instead of acting like if every government doesn't gut the economy then the sky will fall

The industry is pushing government do things it shouldn't do.

I can push it to start doing its job, but they generally will not listen.

You can push too, instead of wasting your time and my time here.

last I checked

it was you wanting the government to ban industry from doing things they should be able to do

not industry wanting the government to ban you from doing things you should be able to do

I don't side with knee jerk banners who want to use government to control the behavior of others for no good reason

It's the Government's job to regulate / ban unsustainable practices and industries.  I cannot ban nothing!

I can push the Government to do its job, and you can push it back  - not to do its job.

Have you had enough already of this going back and forth nonsense ?????

it is not a good idea to heavily regulate or ban the vast majority of practices and industries that you want to ban or heavily regulate

and it's a dick move to push the government to do that

just because the government can do something doesn't mean it should

You meant just because the government is responsible for doing something; doesn't mean it should?

It is a dick move to twist what I say, just so you add another line to your already exhaustive multi-page volley of nonsense.   I stop here.  You continue the bullshit all you want.

motte and bailey

you suggest the government should do all kinds of stupid shit it shouldn't do, that's the bailey

then claim it's the governments job to do that shit when called on it, that's the motte

you conflate the motte with the bailey as if they are the same thing

when it's obvious you are flailing and moving the goalposts to any rational observer

you being the only one around around here dumb enough to fall for your own ruse

because you wouldn't know obvious fallacious thinking if it slapped you in the face
