Presenter is not me, and I claim no credit, but wowzah Scott Galloway really crystalizes and cements some notions I've picked up from the punk side of solarpunk.

on top of that, this whole plea to the rich fucks in the audience is just gonna make them think "you're right, I do need to think about my children. I better amass as much wealth as possible, so that no matter how fucked the world gets, my children in particular can buy their way to the best life."

Interesting perspective. I didn't hear that message at all, but rather that we need to seriously review who gets the lion's share of our (USA) state and federal taxes. I can see how the message you quoted could be extrapolated from his presentation, but it seems to me that it would be a misunderstanding of the goal of this presentation.

It doesn't matter what he intended. It matters what actions his audience will take.
