Literally had my dad tell me that people only ever voted for themselves
While I can accept that a lot of people do that, the implication that he doesn’t vote with at least some thought about his children or wife was a little worrying
Similarly, he’s also said that climate change won’t affect us in our lifetime. This might be (somewhat) true for him, but for me?
if you are alive Feb 8, 2026, climate change is already impacting you drastically. saying otherwise requires ignorance. and i mean that in the original sense. not just never being shown the evidence. the willful choice to ignore that which is above and in front of you every single day
What I mean when I say he’s a little correct is that it’s feasible to ignore most of the effects up till now and assume it’ll continue as it is currently
It’s incredibly ignorant and incorrect, but it’s probably not going to get to the point where we all die before he does first

He probably thinks it isn’t real, rather than “it is not affecting me right now, but will probably be unmanageable in 20 years”
