This is true.
Theres a current in environmentalism that recognises this and is trying to counteract eco-fascists.
The main problem with humanist ecology is that the mechanics of consumerism & capitalism makes us all complicit => therefore making a very good case for an anti-human ecology.
Space there for a third wave of nihilist ecology - pollute until the earth kills us all, leaving a nice quiet rock floating in infinite black solitude, untroubled by the incessant whine of human thought.

Can I take bets out on the election at Vegas, or would they argue that its pre-determined and therefore not a real sport? Debates are pretty much Political Entertainment.
I've spent the last 2 years regretting not placing bets on my political "hunches" so I guess that says that 1) it is and 2) it isn't.
I have only ever placed two bets in my life, both on Irish elections (and in particular the demise of recumbent parties), both won to the tune of about €200.
Best bet ever would have been a grand on Hillary, take the early payoff and then put it on Trump.
lol. A step too far. Polls have been unerringly accurate and the margins are nowhere near as close.
Dont ruin your record.
Was going to add, if not this time, then next time! But didn't want to muddy the water
Clearly I'm a Macon man.
No, I wouldnt do that, and who knows what might happen, but Brexit polling was in the margin of error. 538 gave Trump a 1/3 chance.
Le Pen has, to be generous, a 3% chance. She's nearly 30 points down.
