Because they’re complicit

Both are good. I’m not convinced it’ll be enough to stop things, but a massive help still

I think we’re well past the chance of urban designing our way out of the climate collapse.

We need to make major changes in our consumption to even make a dent, but I say our best shot is cold fusion and carbon capture. Those are obvious longshots.

We’ve created a runaway greenhouse gas effect. Even if we cut emissions to 0 temperatures will continue to climb.

Obviously cutting emissions to 0 would give us more time to fix this mess though

That’s the issue isn’t it? Things aren’t bad enough that armed rebellion would be successful. If you tried you’d die and the vast majority will simply call you a terrorist and move on. Maybe you’ll get some popularity like luigi while the state works on executing you.

So instead people protest, but at best that may swing one or two votes in congress, but not enough to stop anything.

But as things get progressively worse and the state becomes more authoritarian revolution will also be harder as many will be tossed into a gulag before they can take up arms.

Plus any armed resistance will be used as an excuse to declare martial law.

Seems like a no win scenario. The current best chance is he has a stroke and Vance fails to govern effectively

Feels real bad man. A lot of people that voted against this are going to suffer. For perspective 74.9 million people voted for Harris. That’s greater than the entire population of France (68.3 million).

The number of people that didn’t want this is massive. But a few more people in this country did want this so now millions have to suffer.

Maybe the depression this causes will give the US a chance. We seem to only have progressive reform when the economy collapses. When the economy is good voters shift to destroying the system because it’ll “lower their taxes”. Maybe Americans are a lost cause
