Not that Soviet Union, Eastern European socialist states, China etc have been great for the environment.

That’s not true, but I don’t care to refute a talking point from 1991. Google it .

I don't know why you'd even bother to make a reply at that point

[–] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Just googled it. None of the top 10 countries are socialist.

What exactly did you google?

[–] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

“It.” I googled it.

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I expected nothing less

Lower your expectations. Then you’ll never be disappointed.

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Would go into negatives in this case

[–] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Can’t go any lower than criticizing the one thing that can alleviate climate change, but it might be worth a try.

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You've done a great job of convincing people with this totally useless conversation.

[–] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Maybe. But I did reiterate that socialism is the only political economy that stands a chance at dealing with climate change.

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I just noted that so far the track record isn't great
