Study Finds the Wealthy & Celebrities Aren’t Changing Their Flying Habits to Reduce CO2 Emissions
Some are responsible for a thousand times more CO2 emissions than the average.

A new study by Swedish academics has found that most wealthy people and celebrities are not changing their flying habits to help reduce climate change, with some responsible for a thousand times more CO2 emissions than the average.
Imagine my shock.
The study, carried out by researchers from from Lund University, reviewed the social media accounts of well known celebrities and wealthy philanthropists, many of who relentlessly virtue signal about climate change.
Based on the information posted relating to travel, researchers calculated the starting point and destination for flights and then worked out likely CO2 emissions.
Climate activist Bill Gates was responsible for approximately 1,600 tonnes of carbon dioxide, while flights used by Paris Hilton and Jennifer Lopez emitted 1,260 tonnes and 1,050 tonnes respectively.
These figures compare to a global average of 100 kilos per person per year for air travel, or in other words more than a thousand times higher.
According to the researchers, only a minority of the individuals studied have altered their behavior to minimize or stop flying.
“Their lifestyles are norm-setting and identity-building. Above all, young people dream of traveling around the world in a similar way, without having to worry about money,” said Stefan Gössling.
Once again, it’s very much a case of do as we say not as we do.

David Rothschild Ridiculed For Complaining About Elon Musk’s Privilege
“You’re literally a Rothschild.”

David Rothschild faced ridicule on Twitter for complaining that Elon Musk grew up in privilege, with one user telling the economist, “You’re literally a Rothschild.”
The farce was kicked off by Rothschild, a market analyst, tweeting, “Rich white son of emerald mine owner who grew up in apartheid South Africa is the real victim in our society #ThoughtsAndPrayers.”
The snarky tweet was in response to Musk saying he can no longer vote Democrat because they have become the party of “division and hate,” and that he will vote Republican.

The response from other Twitter users was swift, and ‘Rothschild’ quickly became a trending topic.
“You are literally a Rothschild,” said one respondent.

Rothschild countered by claiming he had no links to the banking dynasty.
If I did come from a wealthy banking family (which I do not) and you hate elites, why would you be mad at me for advocating massive inheritance taxes, rights of workers to organize, more spending on infrastructure to increase economic opportunity? Would that not be a good thing?

As to Rothschild’s apartheid smear, back in March Musk vociferously denied his family ever owned an emerald mine, or that their money came from exploiting apartheid.

George W. Bush Inadvertently Condemns “Unjustified and Brutal Invasion of Iraq”
He meant to say Ukraine.

Published

Former President George W. Bush endured an awkward moment during a speech when he meant to refer to Ukraine but instead condemned “the decision of one man to launch a wholly unjustified and brutal invasion of Iraq.”
Whoops.
Bush made the error during a speech where he compared Ukrainian President Zelensky to Winston Churchill.
“The decision of one man to launch a wholly unjustified and brutal invasion of Iraq. I mean of Ukraine,” said Bush.
Freudian slip, much?

Bush blamed his age for the gaffe, joking, “I’m 75,” but his entire presidency was replete with similar such moments.
Bush’s reference to Russia eliminating political opponents from participating in the electoral process can equally be applied to Ukraine.
President Zelensky recently signed a law banning political opposition parties if they are deemed to be “pro-Russian,” a vague smear that could be applied broadly.
He also nationalized all television networks in the country, freezing out any possibility of dissent.
A YouTuber who criticized Zelensky was also recently detained on an international arrest warrant in Spain and faces possible extradition at the behest of the Ukrainian government.
Last month, footage was released of Associated Press accompanying armed men from the Ukraine Security Service as they kidnapped and arrested dissidents from their own homes.
But yeah, Putin bad!
AP accompanies Zelensky's SBU thugs as they kidnap Ukrainians who speak out against the regime. This is an obvious propaganda piece designed to normalize crushing dissent. Imagine how they act when cameras aren't on. https://t.co/8YjRbQXDqT pic.twitter.com/o55SwvhvIH

Tennis Star Warns Ban on Russian Players Sets Bad Precedent
Ideological purity tests for all public figures?

Published
5 days agoon
16 May, 2022
Tennis star Daniil Medvedev says Wimbledon’s decision to ban all Russian and Belarusian players from this year’s tournament sets the precedent that sporting authorities can eliminate competitors for their political views.
The Grand Slam previously made the decision on the grounds that allowing players from those countries to compete would be a victory for “the propaganda machine of the Russian regime.”
However, both the men’s ATP and women’s WTA tours have slammed the move as discriminatory and threatened to strip Wimbledon of ranking points in retaliation for the ban.
Russians and Belarusians are still allowed to compete in other tournaments under a neutral representation.
Current world number 2 Medvedev, who has already called for peace in Ukraine, says the ban is “unfair” and is dangerous because it “sets a precedent and puts other sports competitions in an uncomfortable position.”
In other words, even after the war in Ukraine is over, sports professionals could face career ruination because they oppose or even just refuse to comment on whatever the latest political ‘current thing’ may be.
One can easily imagine a future where prominent public figures are punished for failing to endorse the ‘right’ political candidate or express support for whatever contemporary hot button issue is on the agenda.
Novak Djokavic was already punished by Australian authorities earlier this year for refusing to take a COVID-19 vaccine.
Medvedev also asserted that it was his right to appear at Wimbledon under current immigration laws.
“Currently in the United Kingdom, Russian self-employed workers have the right to work. So if I have the opportunity to play Wimbledon, I’d be delighted,” he said.
As we previously highlighted, the French Open tennis tournament has also warned Russian players not to make political statements in support of President Vladimir Putin if they wish to take part in the grand slam.
Ukrainian tennis star Elina Svitolina also previously demanded that Russian and Belarusian players be subjected to ideological purity tests before they are allowed to compete in international tournaments.
