Sounds like a lovely guy /s
For those who didn't read, he said that student concerns over climate change were dumb because it's not going to affect him personally, and he's rich and they're not, so they should just be grateful to live in the world that revolves around him and shut up. Paraphrased, but only lightly.
It hasn't come to a point where they're afraid to say that shit in public, and honestly I think that needs to change.
Basic pitchfork economics. I'd imagine this cunt is high on the list of examples to be made, if the time were to come.

What bothers me more is I AM the main character in this story called life, and that git of an NPC was coded to think he is... and because he's an NPC, he was given everything to create further drama in MY story! /s
Okay, only slightly being sarcastic... ;)
