We are doomed. Another thing that Dementia Joe has screwed up. And, I think we can all agree that this is a pretty bad screw-up.

Hyperbole. Another way the GOP types avoid any discussion or change. All or nothing? Nothing every time.

Unless someone can figure out how salvaging a livable environment can show greater potential for accumulation of capital than extraction and consumption, we're pretty much F'ed.

Capitalism is based on the ridiculous notion that you can enjoy limitless growth in a closed, finite system.

In biology, such behavior of cells is called "cancer".

The older the gop types, the pale male and stale guys, think they won't live long enough to see the bed they shit. It's like those neighbors that live in s house they can't afford, lease cars beyond their means and drive boats they refinanced their house again for. Their credit cards are maxed out and their kids go to schools they are in debt to. They will never earn their way out of their lifestyle so they keep buying on credit snd plan to die before the bill finally comes due. It will be their kids problem.

Well put Johnny. Will there ever be a point when the Right says it was wrong about unchecked pollution and the necessity to do something about it?

I was right.

Yes, you like the prog model, don't you? So, pale and extremely sutpid guys yell "Covid!!!" and proclaim that we are all going to die unless we spend trillions and take away everyone's freedoms.Likewise, they yell "global warming!!!" and proclaim we are all going to die unless we spend trillions and take away everyone's freedoms. Now that most people have seen through those hoaxes, there will soon be another one. Leaving our kids with $30 trillion in debt and climbing ain't going to go so well either. The difference is that we aren't frightened, helpless and stupid little girls. You guys are.

When the rain falls, it doesn't fall on one man's house. Pabs it's going to rain on you too.

Maybe, maybe not. But if it does, I will deal with it. I won't be tearing my hair out and squawking about I need the gov't to save me by spending my money, raising taxes on other people, and telling me to stay inside until 2 years after the rain stops.

You are comfortable that your personal wealth will allow you to dodge the worst effects, which is pretty common for middle to upper classes. But the working class and most of the global south will be left to try and survive in worsening conditions, and it's highly likely they will "come for you".

I am comfortable in the fact that I will deal with whatever comes down the pike. The global south is already coming for me. Check what's happening at the border since Dementia Joe came to power. I am doing fine nonetheless.
