It's like these fuckers are intentionally destroying us from the inside out for a quick buck.

They're old. They're not going to be around for the bad parts and they don't care about anyone but themselves.

The bad parts are already here and they're going to get worse.

We can’t talk about the actual solutions in this specific news community.

Too bad we’d get banned from this community for talking about solutions.

Getting rid of Chevron puts the entire environment at risk. Now any case of a corporation spewing out any sort of toxic crap anywhere doesn't end up getting halted by the EPA, it gets put in front of a judge. And believe me, it will only take a few of those before we get to "corporations are presidents, my friend" in terms of what they can legally get away with.

Talk is cheap. 🤷‍♂️

Sort of. Chevron wasn’t good either. It put the expertise on the corporations in the field. The way to correct it would be to put expertise on the regulating bodies, like the EPA.

Better than what we have now. Unless you think the corporatist courts will even end up ruling in favor of the plaintiffs.

They already were favoring the defense by designating them the experts. The Chevron Deference was determined when the court ruled that they should defer to Chevron’s expertise when they were defending their case, since no one understood the field as well as they did.

It’s just trading one broken system for another. Both are completely asinine and corrupt.
