I made an attempt to read that guy's book once. Holy hell the man is a nutter, and not a writer by any means.
I made it a quarter of the way through, if that. Absolute waffle.

Yum! π Waffles!
Ironic that someone put this on vehicle powered by gasoline but I suppose that's the crux of the issue; we can just ignore the consequences of our actions as long is doesn't immediately effect us. In this case they're part of the cohort of people that drive to work everyday and indirectly cause the deaths of hundreds of millions of poor people on the other side of the world that they inherently don't give shit about. Mostly in Africa and India, who gives a fuck about them right?
Says the guy using a product of industrial revolution, the car.
I identify as a βhonkeeβ
As someone who relies on a wide variety of medications to survive and is not mobile enough to reliably get about anywhere without a lot of modern conveniences, and who's parter would be dead without the above, and who quite likes the internet
No
Cool story bro, what about the hundreds of millions of people that have died from pollution. Are they better off to?
If you gain this, you will inevitably lose that.
I'll do one betterer
Agricultural revolution was a disaster
True. The native Americans did it better.
You can distill it further. Social hierarchy is the template of all these "disasters". The original sin, if you will. These are all just exacerbations of social hierarchy.
He's not wrong
Kinda weird to put it on a car, though
