You seem to have reduced the very thesis of what I was saying to the point where you excised it entirely.

“Don’t get shitty drunk and then drive” fits just fine.

“Be a technology person who doesn’t use technology because our power isn’t green.” potentially falls on the far side of that line of personal responsibility.

You don't sound too confident.
In what?
In your self-exculpation.
Depends on the subject. Some I’m at peace with (see my original post) and some I haven’t quite worked out to my own satisfaction.

The concept holds, in either case. It’s the only reasonable approach, imo.

I hear a whole lot of "what I can't" and next to none of "what I can." Not where I'd want to be, but it's no skin off my nose, either. Good luck holding on to your soul - good luck, and I hope you end up not needing it.
