Keep yourself cool to worsen the problem? sounds like a great plan! /s

AC users anywhere in the world where temperatures / humidity are in a range that humans can adapt to are morons.

Passive cooling and designing buildings to not overheat during summer in the first place is the way. And phoenix or Las Vegas shouldn't be much more than a gas station, they're unlivable hellholes without permanently pumping enormous amounts of energy in.

Absolutely agreed.

I have AC and heating and live in a very human-fiendly climate. I don't feel like a moron running it off my green power to heat and cool a very well insulated house beyond what the geothermal handles.
