Yeah I thought timing was interesting since I haven't been online in about a week when the other thing was posted and came back to this post. Btw it looks like SSSuper and Prime Super are the only ones on the list that seemed to actually be ethical.

Any super fund that claims to be ethical and or sustainable while investing in fossil fuel should be fined and sued.

Do we plan on joining the anti meta pact? in c/meta@aussie.zone
[–] Gamers_Mate@aussie.zone 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I can understand the appeal of growing numbers but I don't think the risks outweigh the rewards. Unlimited growth is unsustainable anyway. We can exist without Meta. Meta is a poison pill that will eventually monopolize the fediverse if it has its way. This will not be the first time they killed off a decentralized platform.
