Or you could just engage with what people are actually saying, rather than throwing a facetious tantrum that people disagreed with you and hurling ridiculous strawmen.

Have children fund raise for it through lemonade stands and you'll have the perfect Entrepreneurial American Dream Feel Good story for any local news station.
"Local kids raise funds to stop constant oil spillage".
Damn, a huge passive aggressive sarcastic post by someone talking about the personal responsibility.
Guess personal responsibility about being wrong about such takes as "the local neighbourhoods should have engaged in more million dollar infrastructure projects, or just moved" is beyond you.
Fun hint: Your ideas of infrastructure were in fact good takes, you somehow missed that the billion dollar company who profits from the line should be bankrolling them. But please, accuse us all of being emotional because we didnt think the local home owners association should pick up the tab for that one.
To add to that, to and anticipate of the attempted counter, it's not only that the companies should do that, but that they could do that.
Even if you were to argue that the local residents should take the measures mentioned, they can't, it's totally beyond their power. They tried protesting for years because it was something they could do, it just didn't work.
Correct, it's the corporation's pipeline so the corporation is solely responsible if it leaks or breaks down and is soley responsible for cleanup. That's what Personal Responsibility means
The only way for We The People to prevent this sort of thing from happening gets a ban from most places on the internet as soon as you start getting into specifics.
Because I'm *damn* sure you don't mean "vote in a government that will regulate this shit out the wazoo and nationalize the fuckers if the corporations don't play ball"
Well, the precedent is the Boston Tea Party, and the problem is products ending in the water already.
Less flippantly, it's not We The People, it's a small subset of The People who actually care, and the smaller subset who care enough to do anything. Imagine if the government decided to spend taxpayers money on fixing problems facing Native Americans. People claiming to be We The People would get angry and post with their guns.
I am, of course, not saying anything everyone doesn't already know.

"I've realized I lost this argument, but I can't possibly admit I'm wrong, so I'll passive-aggressively exit the conversation in a way that makes me feel like I actually won."
Are there enough people on these forums to constitute a brigade? How about 'Sectioned'* or 'Fire Teamed'?
*yes yes, I know.
