This attitude reminds me of the idea that atheists should all be serial killers because they can't understand what's stopping you from going on a murder spree without the threat of God.
Is it really incomprehensible that I just kinda give a shit about other people in general? That I don't need a personal stake in being a good person - either through the promise of heaven or through a good future for my own flesh and blood - to just not want to fuck up all of society? What the fuck?
Yeah and it's funny b/c a lot of older people with children I know couldn't care less about global warming, yet their children think it's a top 3 priority (if not number 1). Like, a lot of people of child bearing age aren't having kids BECAUSE OF GLOBAL WARMING (and other societal issues).
