Absolutely (alt. title: One of the richest fuckers on Earth realizes climate change disproportionately impacts the poors negatively, which is fine, as is continuing to bolster petrolstates). Both the Harvey-specific and generalized climate calculus contain a disregard for a dynamic that enables further wealth disparities. Weird, coming from a wealthy guy! Pedantic squabblings, for posterity (as always, there's just so many goddamn lurkers here): "white christian males over all in all things" is much more of a racist than true-blue populist ideology. "all proceeds to the 1%" makes it even more transparent. Agree with your interpretations here almost completely.
