private planes, yachts, private chefs, etc seem like such an obscene amount of luxury it shouldn't be allowed somehow. public services would be better if the wealthy were forced to use them, then they might actually care about the constant shittifying of everything

Apparently more people here agree than disagree.

I think owning a small plane is fine. I'm not officially against owning a larger plane... Idk..

Aviation makes up about 2% of global CO2 emissions which is a lot but also not a lot. It's not the smaller planes, it's all of the passenger and cargo jets (mostly).

Anyone who has taken a cruise and is harping on jets is a hypocrite.
