Climate Change Skepticism #1 deal breaker on OkCupid
« on: March 31, 2022, 12:46:17 PM »
What they used to say about mixed religion marriages I guess can be applied.
They say 89% of women and 83% of men "care" about the environment.

^^^The first question I have after reading that is what is the age demographic of OkCupid users?  I suspect it skews relatively young.  And if it does, I am not at all surprised about climate change concern: I see it all the time amongst my younger relatives and the younger staff at work.

A significant number of young people are convinced climate change is going to literally kill them. 

The loons teaching them this are doing a lot of harm.

Of course it's going to kill them! It's going to come out of a dark alley, bludgeon them over the head with a chunk of sea pack ice that broke off the shrinking Antarctic Shelf, and steal their carbon credits!

BECAUSE IT WILL!

Never looked at OkCupid, but if I was on there, I might just advertise that CC is BS, just to weed out the women that can't see through the lies.
A plan is just a list of things that doesn't happen.
Is defenestration possible through the overton window?

If I were still single I would leverage this toward my lack of desire for children.

Climate change? Yeah that's cute. I was on dating sites for both the BT and AT epochs. My supply of batshit crazy liberal chicks slowed down after that election.

I'm so contrarian that I didn't respond to the thread.

I would say I "care" about the environment.  Somehow I doubt that means the same to me as some of these people.

They love being told that without climate change none of us would be here.

History is that of white evils against POC. Anything else never existed.
