    I never wrote that.

    No, but you did jump into that conversation. If you were trying to have some other argument, you were arguing with a strawman.

    But if a side effect of utterly dominating the west in decarbonizing has the side effect of saving the climate I’m not gonna complain.

    “Saving the climate” is not the only “side effect”. Another one is destroying the global economy and further diminishing the wages of workers in the US and around the world. But hey, maybe you like being poor.

      Good. I hate the global economy.

      And maybe if the western countries had a lick of sense it wouldn’t end up this way. But we got addicted to cheap plastic crap and let the Chinese leapfrog us.

      Because if we’d left decarbonization to the west it would never have happened.
