No one alive will experience a better climate than we have today. But young people will experience a much more dangerous and chaotic world in the future.

well, yeah, but also the vroom-vroom assholes - there are so many who fight efficiency and buy the biggest truck our the loudest most ridiculous exhaust for their sports car, they literally derive enjoyment from making things worse. And then there’s the smooth-brainest, the coal rollers, who fuck up their shit intentionally to make it spew toxins they can maneuver onto peds and cyclists.
the world is burning, when are we going to turn some of this focus back to a modicum of personal responsibility?
Vroom vrooms don’t matter as long as we keep shipping shit around the world and burn coal for energy
nope. it all matters now. every fucking bit matters. we’re already at 2c.
it’s all got to matter from here out.
That’s all true, but the rich have outsized power to influence the system. They have an impact on education and politics that in turns breeds the “vroom-vroom assholes”, the coal rollers, the right-wingers, the anti-abortionists, the “my way or the highway”, the tankies, and so on.
More successful people are fine, but those super, mega, ultra rich fucks who play the system to fuck the world for the rest of us, those fucks have to be taxed back into normality or get a visit from Luigi.
hope springs eternal.
