    How I hate this fucking strawman is indescribable. If we ban private jets you are still not gonna stop polluting the planet for no reason.

      Don’t ban them. Tax the shit out of every facet of them. I want them to pay twice as much as it’s worth to remove the carbon footprint, and then you can fly all you want!

    I wonder how many of the people upvoting are themselves upper middle class, living super priviledged lives compared to the vast majority of humans on the planet.

    “I am living within reasons, look at him”, has always been the favourite strategy for shifting middle class guilt.

      There you go, attack your allies. Not even upper class, just upper middle class. We’re so wealthy I can afford to take my family to the local artisanal Pizza place! Our RAV4 is the hybrid edition! Can’t afford private school, but our public schools are nice!

      It’s us versus them my man. I’m a lot closer to poor than I am to a private jet.
