NewBluntsworth Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 23 hours ago, Sieg67 said: John Oliver recently did a thing on carbon offsets. They can work if done right but spoilers, they're often not. He also did a thing several years ago on why the president can't simply eliminate student debt because that's ridiculous and beyond the scope of what can reasonably be asked for by voters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You bitter bruh? He didn't just cancel ALL student debt. He chose to alleviate some of it which I think is reasonable. It's also only one part of a 3 part plan.https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2022/08/24/fact-sheet-president-biden-announces-student-loan-relief-for-borrowers-who-need-it-most/ Edited September 6, 2022 by Sieg67 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't trying to shift the convo to student debt, that was just a topical example to highlight how Oliver's presentations tend to play very favorably to whatever the current climate of neoliberal reformism is at the time his episode comes out (and right now that's "carbon credits can work, but currently they are abused, we'd need to overcome the corruption and fakery that bad actors are using to make a mockery of it, patch that up and regulate enforcement better and then one day it'll be easier for people like me on tv to pretend that it is a serviceable alternative to radical/actually effective climate policy, which ofc is far beyond what can reasonably be asked for ") 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shining light onto corruption is always the first step to solving it. Would you like to contest any of his talking points regarding carbon neutrality? What exactly do you expect him to do?
