    Destroying aircraft seems like a very ecofriendly thing to do, same as killing humans

                  It’s so cool 😎🥰 You missed but it’s fine, you’ll never realise, I’ll work double as hard! Let’s be those who intervene instead of blaming and moaning bro!

                  Be positive now, okay:)?

              Humans are animals, which are a part of the environment. The major cause of human and environmental collapse is a bunch of rich pieces of shit upholding a cruel, unsustainable system and leading you to believe that’s just ‘human nature’ & how things are and have always been.

                yeah I mean this is essentially what I wanted to express here. Being an ecofascist makes no sense because you’d essentially be killing all the humans to protect the humans.

              Correct, but we also have a disproportionate effect on the rest of nature.

              Like yes, cancer is human cells, but that doesn’t diminish the damage they do to the rest of the human cells.

          More importantly, it kills them when they’re old and already contributed most of their pollution and the cancer care also wastes lots of plastic and resources.

            Cancer care doesn’t cause nearly as much waste and resources as elder care does, though. Smokers benefit the system because they die a decade or two early.

              Money yes, but they’ve already reproduced and had most of their carbon emissions by that point. That’s a different metric.

    It’s satire. Original tweet was about an environmentally friendly radar system from Raytheon

    The fact that so many people actually fell for it is worrying not just because reality itself has become satire but because this post should be painfully obvious. Ain’t nobody marketing missiles to anyone who cares about the carbon footprint.

      Not going to lie. I believed it and thought ‘wow between this and the knife missile that greatly reduces civilian casualties Rathiyon are probably most morally upstanding war profiteirs of our era’

      now I am just disappointed

        The knife missile was actually kinda awesome in its own way tbh. Ridiculous precision for super long distance murder with as few casualties as possible.

        It’s also frightening that it exists.

          the knife missile is so emblematic of the entire military industrial complex. can’t stop engaging in unnecessary resource wars due to unnecessary casualties. instead, the military industrial complex will develop and sell a product to allow the killing of specific people in public spaces. and the more you think about the idea of being at a produce stand and someone standing next to you turning into a fine red mist, never to exist in physical space again, the more distopian it seems.

          it reminds me of the episode of star trek where they encounter a planet that has eliminated war via coordinated computer simulations and voluntary genocides.

              It’s the Hellfire AGM-114R-9X

              A while back it was used to kill some dude without the other people in the same house being collateral damage, so it got meme status for a while.

                Question. Are the knives really needed? I feel like getting hit with what is essentially a 5 foot long, 7 inch wide bullet, travelling at mach 1 would prove to be equally efficient at killing single targets, as strapping knives to it.

                  it reduces the risk of missing because the target bent over to pick up a quarter, or stepped to the side because they saw something interesting. the knives in question are basically swords that deploy radially from the missile body like an umbrella.

                  There have been times it’s been used against a whole carful of people, and cars are bigger than seven inches.

        Average person’s carbon footprint is 7 tons CO2 per year. Killing just one person will make a bomb environmentally friendly.

    You’re not going to beat the mosquito or rotavirus when it comes to environmentally friendly killers. Lethality, prodigious. Carbon footprint, minimal (small amount of flatulence, don’t worry about it). This comment was sponsored by Gnawed VPN.

      I heard they’re coming out with a new one that does have the seeds but they’re all non-natives selected for maximum ecological impact. You win some, you lose some
