Your funny comic doesn't make you not a hypocrite

> No one in the west can complain about climate change.

This is a thought terminating cliché and not only obviously wrong but dangerously so.

You don’t get points for looking like you’re next-level. Your lifestyle is most likely at least as wasteful as mine (I’d wager more so), so what you’re doing here, is finding an excuse for it.

I'm not finding an excuse. I'm just accepting that my lifestyle is a huge source of carbon emissions. I'm also accepting that the last time the earth was more-or-less carbon neutral was prior to the industrial revolution. No one is clamoring for a return to that type of lifestyle, especially because doing so would require a massive decrease in the population. You can rattle your saber about Bitcoin all you want, but it's not going to change reality: there is no way to sustain this many humans with our quality of life and be carbon neutral, let alone negative.
