Wouldn't that incentivization lead to sterilization on class lines pretty much 100% of the time?
Unfortunately, yes.

moving from fossil fuels to nuclear power
Yes. It’s not pretty or desirable but it’s 100% aligned with reality.

Well, not really because death and declining health are inevitable. But taken in terms of turning otherwise healthy bodies into diseased bodies then yes it’s a similar line of reasoning.

Do you have a top three favorite operas?

You ever thought, "Man, **** the planet!"? Earth ain't special.

I dont actually, havent had the pleasure of exploring it. I used to work with an amateur singer, and I went to see his performance at his church, which is what turned me onto it. I just think it sounds beautiful.

Oh wow our ignorance makes our planet look special. Praise jesus.

I don't want kids but making that decision for others is an extreme level of authoritarianism
That’s true.

Mother Nature is the most hideous dictator of all time. If you burn through your renewables faster than they can replenish she forces you to eat yourself.
