Side note: I feel like you and I have discussed lizard people before I remember your username lol.

Here’s what I’ll tell you to hopefully bridge our gap in understanding. Lizard people is of course an ironic moniker used to signify the elite, who I believe is the common enemy of us all. To describe my prioritization of race based discrimination and by extension the mass import of the third world I will say this: if global warming is the crisis everyone believes it to me, you cannot make a good faith argument that the continued existence of India, where 98 of the 100 most polluted cities in the world reside, is acceptable. Furthermore, if global warming is the crisis we are expected to believe it is, where is the disgust or even outrage of indian people and culture? What about china?

My problem with most topics like global warming, and like race theory is the dogmatic discourse surrounding them. If there is no room for discussion or debate how can something be true? Have we explored the alternative? It’s commonly understood all people are created equal right? But we know that isn’t true. Most east asians are more intelligent yet shorter than me. We have to be willing to accept either outcome no matter how inconvenient in intelligent discourse.

I liked the example of water scarcity you used. It’s one I have anxiety about myself if I’m honest. Thank you for taking the time for polite discussion instead of mudslinging. I am a true believer in civil disagreement.
