Can we all agree to stop using terms like political left and political right in such wide context? There are a lot of complicated issues considered to be political, and using aforementioned terms is just oversimplification. There is no need for all of this, it just helps dishonest people. There is even scientific study showing impact of labeling of different proportions es left or right.
My reaction would be: No… hmm, that’s fair. No, just mind control him in secret to make him care about environment. That would be more effective. He is going to have resources to make things more eco friendly.
