  • I like that actually.

    They pollute the air from fossil fuels used to power them causing people to get sick and making the climate worse

    They pollute our water through their massive cooling needs, contaminating the water and expelling their sludge into ecosystems, destroying them while also pumping out massive amounts of water, depleting aquifers amd wells leaving residents with nothing but sludge in their pipes

    They pollute the electrical grid with their massive loads destabilizing it and leaving residents without power, soon to be rolling blackouts, at which private utility companies will increase rates on residents to build infrastructure for them (and all the destruction that comes with it)

    They pollute noise quality with both audible and infrasound causing people to get sick and causing local fauna to flee, decimating the environments miles around them

    They pollute the internet and our knowledge altogether with slop and hallucinations, devaluing human creativity, knowledge, and labor

    They pollute our mental health, causing people to experience psychosis, isolate themselves further, and even deciding to end their own lives snuffing out any potential they once had

    They pollute our communities, making spaces unlivable for many and even using eminent domain to remove people from their homes all while promising to bring in new communities through the 4 new long term jobs they add to the area

    They pollute our towns and cities, forcing themselves in and siphoning our taxes away causing a decline in other protections and services as funding gets redirected, potholes don’t get filled, schools close, services get cut

    They pollute our economy, passing circular money between businesses while devaluing human labor and further privatize gains while socializing losses to eventually leave the taxpayer to pick up the collapse

    They pollute our society as they enrich capitalists, already experiencing psychosis from surrounding themselves with yes men, and allow them to further dismantle institutions to protect workers

    I could probably keep going but that’s just top of mind.



  • That’s called a cognitohazard. An infohazard. Just that knowledge existing is dangerous.

    Just wait until we get 3D biological printers that can print protein chains at home.

    If we make it there. The fire tornadoes say that maybe climate apocalypse has it first. Though nuclear might take the winner since the US has a pedophile manbaby in office that can never admit defeat currently engaged in a lost war.
