    Can I just probe this: You believe that, for real, someone is sitting and actively planning to kill people by removing their water?

      All good go for it.

      There’s better ways to do data centers than the ways they cool them that use up the most water, putting them in areas where it wastes even more water, and not paying for it by pushing the cost to the people

      So you tell me what that looks like to you personally. It’s not like the current administration, & big tech have been doing anything good lately

        Personally it looks to me like a bunch of people don’t give a shit about others and conveniently push away uncomfortable discussions about the consequences of the decisions they take.

        But that it still a far cry from Bond-villain “let’s kill them by taking their water”.

          Makes sense. Can see it from your perspective as well. I guess I wouldn’t say most are Bond-villains (Some though truly messed up people want that though)

          Still a lot of them already know about the droughts and climate change yet still do it. So even though it isn’t Bond-villain style can still see them not giving a shit basically translating to fuck it let them die without.
