"The dirty secret nobody talks about is how much all this is going to cost and who's willing to pay for it," Darren Woods said on Fortune’s Leadership Next podcast.

“we’ve waited too long to open the aperture on the solution sets in terms of what we need, as a society, to start reducing emissions,” Woods told Fortune

      Is it playing devil’s advocate to say that criticism should at least be true?

          Awh I’ve never been called a class traitor or a corporate boot licker before 😂 good to know that we’re willing to throw the truth under the bus, I always thought that being better than our enemies was the way but I see now that petty things like the truth are the real enemy. Thank you for opening my eyes.

            Pay no attention to that troll, friend. I’m all for makeing CEOs/billionaires accountable. But what you did was good, and you don’t need to explain yourself to a troll.

              Just shut the fuck up. That’s not even the point. OP was simply clarifying what the article said, without outside editorializing.

              I am in favor of making CEOs accountable, but all you’re doing is staining the cause with an irrelevant conversation. Wait… is that your goal? Are you a fucking Russian disinformation agent or something?

              Go back to reddit.

          What the fuck, what kind of bullshit is this? This is not how a sane discourse works. This is the worst case of ad-hominem/strawman I’ve seen in a while.

          “Yes, OP, you’re right that the CEO didn’t say that. But do we need the truth prevailing here? He’s a CEO!!! Why are you defending him?!”

          What a load of bullshit.

              I definitely just ignore or block “durr prove it” types.

              Nah I’m not going to waste my time and energy compiling sources and whatnot just for some asshole to go “nuh uh fake news LuLuLuLuLuLz”

                You don’t do that for the poster. You do that for other readers.

                When someone makes a completely stupid comment, like “Drink bleach to kill viruses,” I won’t go and reply “no you wrong!” I’ll reply “For anyone reading, that’s a dangerous advice and here’s why [citations].” I don’t care if the poster then replies with “nuh uh, fake nooz.”

                (I didn’t downvote you, by the way.)
