What is Doomer? :(

It is a nebulous thing that may include but is not limited to Climate Change posts or Collapse posts.

Yeah sure, clear more land for development, Australia, it's not like the lack of trees will dry everything out and raise temperatures in a place that is already dangerously hot. What's a heat island? Oh, look, fire!

Oh, you didn't even clear those trees for anything important planned and just stuck up a sign saying "new industrial opportunities!" Boy, that sure was worth cutting into a previously protected forest and killing a bunch of endangered koalas and quolls for!

Oh look, the slop warehouse you replaced that native forest with has a koala for a logo! We sure love our national icons! I wonder where all the real koalas went?

You're not alone. The solution is to run for office, or so I'm told. I firmly believe that anyone who does, even with good intentions, becomes corrupt eventually.

Is it a good thing or a bad thing that I had to look up that phrase?

At least it doesn't seem to happen too terribly often in the US... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_assassinated_American_politicians

that's why they use the heart attack gun instead of a normal gun
