     @breadandcircuses @PaulaToThePeople not from my side. At least not completely.

     Blaming anyone is never a good thing, but just "blaming" the system often is just an excuse for the single person to do nothing.

     An Individuum has the power to change social norms! How do you name your account? Power to the people!

     Yes, the system has to be changed, but this also can be driven by me and you.

     Just an FYI: If you blame individuals (which are not #billionaires) on the #ClimateCrisis I will ask you to leave the #ClimateJustice instances. We don't do this here.

     Don't get me wrong: It's good if individuals do "their part" in tackling the climate crisis, by changing their habits and lifestyles, but blaming them, when its clearly the #capitalist system's fault is just wrong.

     Be #vegan, consume sustainably, ride your #bike, don't fly.
     There are many good reasons to do so, e.g.:
     👉 it's the right thing to do
     👉 it's healthy
     👉 you're a role-model for others
     👉 if many people do this, it slightly changes how companies act.
     👉 it fosters your awareness for the issues

     But also be aware that its a droplet on a hot stone. Non-wealthy individuals won't fix the climate with their daily choices. We have to *demand* action by the big players.
     And I don't mean blame China!
     All of us need to demand radical climate action by our governments.

     So please:
     ✊ #protest
     ✊ #strike
     ✊ #unionize
     ✊ #block
     ✊ #sabotage peacefully

     We can do this together! I know we can.

     #ConsumerBlaming is #VictimShaming

     Oh and one more thing. If you blame the amount of people on this planet for the #ClimateCrisis or obtrusively advertise for being childless for the climate, I'll also ask you to leave our instances.
     This is literally #EcoFascism.

     @anubis2814 said it well here: https://friendica.myportal.social/display/e65e1095-8164-e613-26b0-f53262095010

     I personally won't ever have children. But if you want children, please procreate!
     Raise radical little rebels that will change the world! ✊
