This will definitely get me on a watchlist

I struggle every day with the thought that the corporate noose tightening around all of our necks will not be solved unless we as a society begin to provide some real ... 'mortal incentive' to the oligarchs of the world. No way I could ever do it myself, but I understand the need for it now more than ever.

Normally I'm a solutions guy. I shouldn't be coming up with this as a solution for the issues of the world right now, but it's gotten so egregious that the systems we've put in place FOR THE PEOPLE are not working for the people any longer.

Blowing up fossil fuel infrastructure is a moronic idea that'll create an environmental disaster worse than the infrastructure existing. Instead, sabotage it so that it stops flowing.

How about a foreign fossil fuel infrastructure first?

Are you morally obligated or are you ethically obligated? Or is it both?

There are two wolves inside me

One wants to discuss the moral obligation to commit acts of sabotage against fossil fuels infrastructure that is killing the planet

The other wants to have good opsec and not possibly incriminate myself for future actions I may or may not be involved in by posting

Disclaimer for any feds reading this: I am a clown and everything I do/say/post is hypothetical and/or for comedy only

If you blew up fossil fuel infrastructure, you'd go to jail. The US blew up Nord Stream, nothing happened. We truly live in a society

Blowing it up will not stop them as they'd just rebuild. More pollution in the process.

As the situation worsens it's only a matter of time before rampant eco-terrorism, if we're not all too busy dying in water wars of course.

If you start being a nudist then they have too see you naked when they spy on you.

Just killing billionaires is probably the best option

I've looped around to sadomasochism.

Destroy the world! Kill us all! Burn me more daddy!!! 👐 😩 💦

I heard they protect the pipelines near places where it's easy to access and they know pretty quickly where the break happened so they can find you. It's quite difficult to actually figure out how to blow up a pipeline and not immediately get arrested.

Same thoughts, my mind even came up with a good plan. Drones equipped with remote activated termite pots. It melts through steel easily and fossil fuels burn. You can do this from a distance and it uses cheap available materials. I don't have the guts to do it though... So it remains an Idea.

If the us and China had a nuclear war the planet might survive.

Monkey Wrench gang gang

How do I cope? Video games that let me blow up infrastructure.

Who gives a fuck if you end up on a list? The only list you should be worried about is Santa's good list and that's not for another two months

How do y'all cope with this

Start small, do sabo stuff like tree spiking first which has this outcome, transition to occupying weapons factories (with an org), gain experience before branching out.

I imagine dying doing some act of eco terrorism and then imagine my soul going to heaven where I meet Vladimir Lenin who calls me a liberal for doing an adventurism and then writes an entire book about how stupid I am

I would, but this bad air quality thanks to our fossil fuel industry has given me pretty bad asthma and other respetory problems resulting in low energy.

Too sleepy.

Y'all blow it up for me tho, ya? Imma take a nap.

No watchlists on lemmy post away ;)

Smash the Petroliarchy!!!

I watch the Watchmen.

See, by posting this, I'm on the watchlist too. So the watchlist is watching the watchmen watching the watchlist watching the watchmen ad infinitum. If you're asking "watch the fuck?", to explain without using the word watch, I've engaged an infinite mobius surveillance loop.

Side note, by making it to the bottom of this comment, you've all done Dr. Seuss proud.

In my "First Reformed" era

Easy. Think this, believe this, never do anything about it. Let's see how you grow to handle it.

I highly recommend this excellent film: How to Blow Up a Pipeline

I generally imagine myself standing on trial with the argument of self defense. While it's what I would argue in a hypothetical criminal trial, the outcome is enough of a deterrent

Does that mean I'm morally obligated to burn that lady's shirt?

This will definitely get me on a watchlist

Lol wow, this thread is full of internet tough guy syndrome. Hilariously cringy.

I wonder how many of these sabotage memes are started by foreign governments

So your solution to fossil fuels causing pollution. Is to cause an ecological disaster? "Let's blow up the pipeline full of oil that is bad for everything it touches. Surely the resulting oil spill won't be bad for everything covered".

It would be more productive to ask your congressperson to support a carbon fee and dividend, so that carbon emitters return money to the citizens instead of wasting it on repairs:
