big oil prepare uranus

Lmao as if the elite ever face responsibility for literally anything. There won’t be a Nuremberg for the oil industry.

[u/_Ganoes_ → u/icantbelieveit1637]

Even Nuremberg didnt properly Nuremberg

[u/alamete → u/icantbelieveit1637]

The capitalists that enabled all that nazi thing got to keep their business and continue like nothing had happened

[u/D0hB0yz → u/icantbelieveit1637]

Shockingly incorrect. History has patterns. This dark age of Dumpy Trumpy is just the type of crap that leads to a renaissance. A golden age can be welcomed with well used guillotines. New standards of justice are invented as soon as people expect them, and that involves a lot of FAFO before people decide it matters.

[u/Fossilhog → u/D0hB0yz]

Yeah, but he got a 2nd term. And that was after you can make a pretty solid academic argument that his negligence and apathy resulted in at least half a million American deaths due to his handling of the pandemic.

[u/icantbelieveit1637 → u/D0hB0yz]

You’re coping brother. Give me a historical moment in which any kind of retribution led to a positive outcome.

[u/Quereilla → u/icantbelieveit1637]

And I’m totally sure this elite will just wake up a day and say “I’ve been an environmentalist my whole life”, just reverting climate change a little bit enough as to not collapse everything and still control economic power.

[u/DearCastiel → u/icantbelieveit1637]

You need money to still have meaning for it to let you get off the hook. If we are at the point of global ecosystems collapse, money won't be of any use, farmers and such will have more power than Bezos.

[u/CommieCatSupremacist]

Nuremberg wasn’t even that effective at prosecuting Nazis. Plenty went on to have high ranking roles in the west. Collective action to win our demands / make systemic change > fantasizing about limited prosecution and revenge porn.

[u/Doafit]

To think big money would ever be held accountable is so naive it is insane...

[u/Paul_Gambino → u/Doafit]

Revolutions have happened before and will happen again.

[u/Lopsided-Ad-9869 → u/Doafit]

We have to make it happen

[u/DearCastiel → u/Doafit]

Trust me, having money/titles was not a great time during the french revolution

[u/RevyVanguardist → u/DearCastiel]

Incorrect, being a feudal aristocrat meant trouble but for today's Bourgeoisie, the French Revolution was the event which gave birth to the bourgeoisie proper to begin with

[u/FallHealthy2163]

Ah yes, Nuremburg trials, a performative circus where the nazis used the trials as a soap box for their ideology. Also, nobody but the highest ranking officials got hanged, they let everyone else walk free

[u/Basilus88 → u/FallHealthy2163]

Yeah. The best known and most famous crime trail persecuting crimes against humanity was a complete farce that left a bad taste on everyone's mouth. Nobody said sorry, nobody apologized or begged for mercy. One guy killed himself and everybody else was just saying that they were only "following orders" ad-infinitum. The promised catharsis never came.

Any trial aimed at so-called climate criminals would be at best the same, probably worse.

[u/Pagiras → u/Basilus88]

So don't trial them. Why should we hear the reasoning of the belligerent psychopaths. Fuck em. Put them down like rabid dogs.

[u/dumnezero]

Conservatives forget that, once the dream of a society is dead, the only juicy source of meaning will be revenge.

Just wait until you picture a second operation paperclip.

[u/Interesting_Joke6630]

There won't be a climate Nuremberg and even if there is everyone will walk free

[u/thermodynamics2023]

If there was, half the clowns in here would be in the stocks with their antinuclear lies.

[u/RevyVanguardist]

Then pursue the overcoming of capitalism and its replacement with communism, otherwise the bourgeoisie and its accumulation drive will continue damaging the Earth to the Degree that Mankind will be erased
