    Is it really being a "doomer" if fucking nothing has been done for decades about this and so-called "pledges" from the corpos burning the planet down were always bullshit and are now officially being abandoned?

      Yes, because "doomer", conceptually, is a coping mechanism used by people who cannot accept the reality of the horror that is coming down on us and instead of trying to cope with it and come out the other side ready to do whatever is possible to mitigate the harm they reject reality entirely.
