@Theblueone I feel like Biden is scoring a whole bunch of singles which is good because we're behind, they're not enough because we waited until we were down by a hundred to start.

We need bigger and more proactive action. The fascists are no worse off now than 4 years ago and we're going into another election where they have a strong contender to which we don't appear to have a real answer.

@Theblueone
I think the reason this is so difficult to grasp for so many people is a lack of creativity or imagination.

People can’t wrap their heads around the #ecosystem failures of #ClimateChange.

Don’t Look Up was a parody of real-life, and people who didn’t like it or get it are too self-serious, pot-committed to fake invulnerability.

The simultaneous collapse of multiple #institutions is so far-fetched that it’s easier to pretend it’s not happening or isn’t real.

@paninid People don't grasp that "The elites will come up with something to save us" isn't gonna happen...

Not realizing we're watching their plan. Enriching themselves, locking themselves up in enclaves and fuck everyone else. Gaza? Police crackdowns on protests? Letting infrastructure rot away while legalizing drugs? Doubling down on disruptive/distractible AI & surveillance technologies??

That's it. That's the plan.

The runaway wealth inequality is the response to climate change.
