Normalise saying “fossil methane” instead of “natural gas”

Annoyed_Crabby ,

Just Methane will do, fossil methane implies there’s a better methane out there

Tlaloc_Temporal ,

On one hand, synthetic methane is set to be rather important in the medium term future. On the other hand, bio methane is probably the worse greenhouse product at the moment.

Annoyed_Crabby ,

I mean, if it’s methane but using another process to create it, it’s still methane, a very potent greenhouse gas, that’s so far hard to regulate and very easily leak unnoticed. It’s “better” than obtaining from oil, but still, it’s methane.

[insert methane is methane meme here]

Tlaloc_Temporal ,

Specifically synthetic methane will be efficiently burned, and much of it will be burned outside the atmosphere, so it’s hardly a greenhouse risk.

I’ve been calling all fossil fuels ‘artisanal energy’. It will eventually become as practical as other handmade, small batch products.

Another facet (at least specifically in America) is to de-stigmatize discussing personal income among the working class. We’ve been melt-brained hard to think it’s as private and taboo as discussing one’s most deep and darkest sexual kinks when really it’s just a tool of the owners to keep workers indentured in the wage-slave economy.

I think it isn’t going to be that effective a phrase. People don’t understand why having lots of money (hoarding wealth) is a bad thing, necessarily, and it sort of implies that, if they were to just spend it it’d make the initial hoarding fine.

Gotta also focus on the fact that they essentially stole that money from workers through labor exploitation. The bare fact that they got the money to begin with is the problem, not just them holding onto it. If they were to spend it all on horrible capitalist enterprises rather than hoarding it, that’d be even worse. Even if they spent it all on “philanthropic” efforts, that’s still worse than the workers having their fair share and the government being able to actually have that money to spend on social programs through taxes.

The problem with this is that if billionaires just sat on their fortunes like a dragon sitting on treasure it would be much better than the way it is now, where they pump their billions into “nonprofits” that try to manipulate society to make it even better for them and worse for normal people.

Or just oligarch or power addict. In the eyes of most people, wealth is about luxury, material goods and fancy toys. Of course that’s part of it, but at a certain point, wealth is no longer about luxury and toys, it’s about power and having control over resources everyone else depends on.

Arguably true. Please post actual memes next time, OP.

I was thinking nigglers.

Cause they’re niggling us all

More from oil! More from groceries! More work for less pay!

Endlessly niggling every aspect of our lives

herrcaptain ,

I see where you’re coming from but that feels dangerously close to a certain other word I’d rather not use. I’m also not sure of the etemology of that word, but I wouldn’t be shocked to find out it has something in common with the other one.

nailingjello ,

Meiser???

billgamesh ,

rockSlayer ,

I’m old school, I stick to calling them boss, capitalist, and bourgeoisie
