@KyleighLemmond [name pseudonymized] [ontology] [03]: @alan_poirier Looks like everyone has benefitted from #fossilfuels - ppl in Africa would benefit more if the #woke #climateers were not preventing their access to grid scale electricity and #coal-fired power plants.

Context "the inactivists - a loose coalition of fossil-fuel interests, conservative ideologues and supportive politicians and journalists - seek to redirect responsibility for the problem away from the fossil fuel industry and towards individual consumers, as well as developing nations in the global south. When solutions to the climate crisis are proposed by inactivists, they tend to be timid and unambitious, with faith in future (as yet unrealised) 'green' technologies held up as a reason to shy away from serious structural changes now." https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/nov/11/inactivists-tangling-up-the-climate-crisis-in-culture-wars-manston-airport-kent #PloyManufacturingDoubtClimateInactivism https://www.isdglobal.org/ #IdentityGlobalSouth #OrgClassifPPUKConservativePartyCraigMackinlay #OrgClassifPPUKConservativePartyJulianKnight #OrgClassifPPUKConservativePartySteveBaker #OrgUKClimateChangeCommitteeCCC https://www.theccc.org.uk/about/ #PhenomnClimateChangeAnthropogenic #PolicyDecarbonisationZeroCarbon https://youngfoee.eu/news/climate-myth-2-its-all-china-and-indias-fault/ #PhenomnPropagandaDisinformation #AdvocacyUKInstituteForStrategicDialogueISD #OrgClassifPPUKConservativePartyNigelLawson https://seanforachange.medium.com/how-a-wealthy-uk-thinktank-is-spreading-climate-denial-through-facebook-ads-abc52390df47 And https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2014/sep/02/nigel-lawson-climate-sceptic-organisation-funders #IRLEconomistNeilRecord i.e. #WebsiteDeSmog [DeSmog] And #OrgClassifPPUKConservativePartyNigelVinson "Both are linked to a free-market thinktank, the Institute of #AdvocacyUKInstituteOfEconomicAffairsIEA, which has admitted taking funding from fossil fuel companies and has also argued against climate change mitigation". #IRLBusinesspersonMichaelHintze #AdvocacyUKGlobalWarmingPolicyForumGWPF http://www.thegwpf.org/global-warming-policy-foundation-launches-campaigning-arm/ i.e. #WebsiteNetZeroWatch / https://www.netzerowatch.com/who-we-are/ #CatchcryCostOfNetZero #AdvocacyUKNetZeroScrutinyGroup https://www.lse.ac.uk/granthaminstitute/news/misinformation-and-propaganda-campaign-on-net-zero/ #NewspaperUKTabloidDailyExpressJamesMurray #OtheringElitesLiberalCulturalEducated #AdvocacyUKGlobalWarmingPolicyFoundationBennyPeiser #MetaphorWarfareCulture #TheoryDragonsOfInactionDiscredenceDenial #IRLWriterAdamCorner https://adamcorner.uk/

"Habermas sees the modern public sphere as, in many ways, the victim of its own success. As it expanded far beyond its original basis of educated male property-owners, material inequalities could no longer be set aside, but rather became the subject of public debate (1962 [1989: 127]). And this debate was no longer a matter of rational-critical analysis of state action by the assembled public, but of negotiation between interest groups which bypass public reason. Instead of the approximation of society to the ideal type, what emerged was an impoverished pseudo-public sphere, lacking its original capacity for rational-critical discourse, easily manipulated by states, corporations, and interest groups using the techniques of 'public relations' (1962 [1989: 176, 236]). Its role now, as in the feudal era, is to acclaim decisions which have already been made." [encyclopædia] #IRLPhilosopherJurgenHabermas #TheoryThePublicSphere #PoliticsFeudalism [Wikipedia]
