I know that de-platforming has become fashionable, but its use is still very controversial.
Although the cartoons deemed to have been inappropriate used the image of a very public advocate for action on climate change, I think that they both made pertinent points:
One, that if we need more EVs we are going to need huge quantities of batteries which require the miners who are hand digging the cobalt ore to work faster.
Of course Tesla is reducing the quantity of Cobalt and may even be able to eliminate it, but all the other manufacturers are a long way behind.
Two, that children being brought up in Poverty might actually prefer the lifestyle the activist says has/will be stolen from her.
The Third world is entitled to the same standard of living as us, which is going to require the generation of huge amounts of Energy.
I think we all agree on what has to be done, but some of us put CO2 emissions lower in the list than others.
And I don’t that that naïve appeals to emotion by this particular activist, help rational discussion on what money to give to each of the solutions.
I didn’t “like” the cartoons, partly because of the point our Moderator has made, and partly out of cowardice.
