Yeah - everyone is shitting on the top 1% here in Germany until they realize that half the population here makes it into that percentile and suddenly it’s the 0,1% that’s the problem.
It’s all about putting the blame on someone else so you don’t have to question if you might be a little bit responsible, too, with your lifestyle…
They’re talking about the top 1% of Germany VS the top 1% of the world. If you reframe your thinking to be about the world instead of just your country, you might find your position as one of the 99% percent changing. I don’t make much in the USA, I certainly wouldn’t call myself rich, but just being employed, above minimum wage, and single means I’m probably above that threshold.

That’s not how math works. Half the population is 50% not 1%
I was talking about the global 1% since that’s usually what those kind of stats are aimed at
Are you implying that the climate crisis is a global issue? I thought it’s all about recycling
Recycling and liking pictures of polar bears.
