Being stupid in the time of climate change

I don't think it is the Mayor who is stupid but the people who put him in office. /picture taken from internet

It is difficult to have sympathy for people who behave irresponsibly and stupidly then expect others to help them get over the dire consequences of their action and then still blame others for not doing enough for them.

An example would be people  who willfully and gleefully sell their votes during elections and then expect good performance from the officials whom they sold their votes to. There are people too who tend to  deify personalities out of fear or ignorance in order to have a convenient someone to save them but who of course can only fail their expectations.

In this time of global warming and climate change when disasters occur at increasing frequency and fearful intensity, people should be reminded of Darwin's Law: the fit survive, the weak die.

Be stupid at your own risk.
