"We don't have to do anything, the scientists and engineers will work their asses off to solve this problem that we caused by not listening to them in the first place"
It's logic like that that makes me laugh when people call leftists "lazy".
Want to know who's lazy? Comfortable, privileged people in the global north who can't be bothered to think about the consequences of their actions. They're absolute philistines that care for little beyond their own pleasure, and while it's cool that some people to innovate solutions. It gets these smuglords to point and say "see, they will clean up after me! Now let me consooooooom in peace!"
