  • Depending on the context, this may or may not be a false dichotomy.

    If considering the act of voting in an election in a country with a two party system, each with a different shade of neoliberalism, then there are two choices realistically, and picking the lesser evil is a decent moral choice.

    If considering other countries or primaries where there are more than two options polling above 2%, then it’d be a false dichotomy.





  • Fossil fuel are getting progressively harder to produce, since easily accessible oil and gas fields were the first to be exploited, and are (soon to be) depleted, leaving hard to reach ones. So they’re getting more expensive even without taxing them.

    Renewable sources are getting progressively cheaper.

    The EU is planning to enforce CBAM soon, and other may follow and tax import from country that have 0 carbon tax.

    So even if they’re not motivated for dumb political reasons, they’re going to feel more and more financial pressure.
