And of course he proves he is no adult either by treating the extinction of his species as a flippant joke.

Sometimes people need inappropriate laughter to deal with things. I’m not judging him for it.

Which would be understandable if it wasn’t obvious he’s being serious.

He genuinely doesn’t give a shit.

I’m pretty sure the “lmao” at the end of the tweet is a pretty big context clue that he’s being facetious.

Do you know Kenny Lì personally? Have you asked their opinion yourself, or are you making an assumption based on a dozen facetious words?

I’ll stop treating it like a joke the second anyone in charge does.

Until then I’m going to play the jester to bring some levity to this situation.

In some cases, comedy is how you reach people and get them to seriously consider an issue. Jest on, my friend!

that’s the only way a lot of us can cope with the fact our planet is dying and nobody is doing anything about it. Not going to live my days in despair, might as well laugh at my own misery

Or you could try actually doing something about it.

oh yeah let me overthrow the government to finally put restrictions on the corporations that dump all their waste into the oceans real quick

i as an individual have such minuscule control over the situation it’s statistically negligible

and those who actually try are ignored, to the point their activism doesn’t even get media coverage, environmental activism was loud for a few years and now they’ve been pushed back to obscurity because people got bored of hearing the same old song and dance every other week

the world is dying and there is nothing i can do, so i’m going to laugh at it until we all go down in the climate wars or until (by some miracle) someone with the power to improve the world stops having wet dreams about next quarterly profit reports and has a long think about the world they’re leaving for their children
