Still no engagement with actual arguments brought up several posts ago at this point. Still more attempts at derailment.

Speaks for itself. I shall leave it at this then.

Here I go again, not being respectful to the troll who fantasizes about oppressing me.

Okay fine, you'll get one last chance at making a substantive point.

Judging by your posts, you seem to be acting from some sort of libertarian framework.

With that in mind, let me ask you: Is what you propose not directly against the non-aggression principle so highly valued by said ideology?

If your energy consumption burns down my forest or drowns my beachfront land, you have initiated violence against me, have you not?

Stopping you from doing so would be well within the remit of a night watchman state by that standard. It would be you that attempts to oppress me, not the other way around.
