Then who are you? Do you even know who you are as a person if you don’t have the ethics to make a stand? Do you just meh all over your morals? Just give up on everything you believe? Or is it that you don’t have morals, and you’re just making excuses?
Oh yeah. Here I’m just a silly little installation wizard who contributes here attempting to be meaningful and provide conversation nuggets. In real life I’m playing that balancing act between ethics, my resources/influence, and trying to not burn out.
I’ve done plenty of things based off of morals without it being the “smart” or most personally beneficial decision. AirBnB just isn’t one of those due to how much I can save and put towards local restaurants, bars, and tipping when I finally vacation. I also don’t trust hotel corps to use my money ethically, and have used an AirBnB maybe once a year on average. I’m hoping I can have another actual vacation soon since it has been 4 years.
Also, I strongly believe that my responsibility is taking care of my wife and family first, then community/political contribution.
What about you? Where do you stay when traveling where there aren’t friends or family?
I don’t travel. Like, at all. The most I travel is the 20 miles it takes to get my kid from his mom’s house. I don’t need the luxury of burning CO2 and ruining the housing market to have a good time.
Neat! I’m glad you are comfortable within your bubble.
On a different tonal note, it’s very impressive you have the resources to single-handedly ruin the housing market, but choose not to. /s
I’m satisfied being well below average in CO2 contribution. I need to see new places in person, and that need serves me much better than putting all my efforts into lowering the CO2 average consumption by another -0.002 kg/year.
Who TF is comfortable? Definitely not me. You don’t have a need to travel, you just don’t give AF about anybody but yourself. Tell people in low-lying island nations why you “just can’t help yourself” but to flood their homes because you can’t sit still.
Yeah, that doesn’t happen because of me. You can keep trying to shame me as an outlet for your anger from the ultra-wealthy and large businesses if that makes you feel better.
Unprofessional opinion tho, trying to make yourself feel more morally correct because you have different needs or can’t access them isn’t the healthiest way to express these feelings.
The average Joe is not accountable for any meaningful amount of pollution until after the private jets are prohibited. My city does what it can with local ordinance, and I do what I can to contribute to carbon neutral initiatives. Reduce has been the big focus this year. I’m thankful to have a place to bring my own bottles for soap, shampoo, laudry detergent, deodrant bars, and such.
You judge people before trying to know them and ask questions. Your assumptions hold you back.
You’re right in that the average Joe isn’t the most accountable, but the average Joe can hurt the companies and people who ARE most accountable. That means not indulging them, and definitely not giving them money.
Be better.
That’s the struggle every day, Pooptart. Every day; and in a system that doesn’t want me to.
