They get unnecessarily VIOLENTLY angry if you address how other political issues are also important.

They are rabid, and do not have ‘chill’ mode. It’s impossible talking to them at all. They also force their beliefs about using public transportation on everyone when they don’t take into account that not everyone lives in a city.

Also, they fail to acknowledge that public transportation is not safe.

Listen, I get that climate change is a thing. But it’s not THEE ultimate and almighty issue.

    We’re talking about the possible extinction of the human race. That seems to me to be the ultimate and almighty issue. I can’t imagine what you could think was more important.

    Climate change threatens to kill everyone on the planet. It is the ultimate issue right now. This is just humans going into survival mode and focusing on the big death.

    It’s akin to trying to talk to somebody about a food shortage while they’re actively on fire. Yes food’s important, but it’s less urgent

    Everyone who’s down voting, this is clearly a bona fide unpopular opinion, don’t downvote. It’s exactly why this community exists

      This is what I fear the most. Climate change will only become salient over time where obsession with it will manifests as extreme violence to secure resources. But it’s not like these murderous people are going to care about climate change per se; rather, they’ll think they need to secure what they need to continue their survival. But those resources, particularly water, will become less and less available because of climate change.

      Better that climate “activists” block traffic, slash tires, and have no chill mode now than deeply flawed humans murdering, raping, and pillaging later for the same reason.

    It is the single GREATEST existential threat to humanity right now. This isn’t an unpopular opinion, you are just factually incorrect.
