‘Risk’ analyses largely ignore the dangers of the climate crisis. Unless we wake up to them, they will soon outweigh all others

I mean…Russia stands to benefit the most from climate change. Followed by Canada.
A few degrees centigrade and just about everything below the 40th parallel become unhabitable. That leaves the northern border states in the US. 350million of us gonna squeeze into Washington, Montana (fuck Idaho) N.Dakota Minnesota, NY, New Hampy, Verminion and Maine? IDK about that.
For the first 20 years of my life I thought we would step up and have a plan to avoid the worst. That next 20 years I was waiting for real coordination to be heard over the politicking. The last few years I realized we do have a plan. And that plan is the exact one I thought was waaaay too barbaric for modern times but now I’m convinced it’s the only outcome we’ve planned for at all.
And that’s to build the wall and drop a machine gun every 20ft. There’s ~200million people between us and South America and the army has way way more ammunition stored up than just that.
So the choice of having the world’s rich humbled down to the common man and we all degrowth or slaughter 200million people, America has chosen blood.
We’ll always choose blood
I still don’t get why profits are so fucking important, but I’m sure that’ll someday get me thrown into the juicer
Affluenza.
Once you have so much it’s obscene, you don’t have any peers.
Without peers, you don’t have true accountability. Without accountability man becomes monster
It should be in the DSM, seriously. Then we can argue we’re legislating a maximum annual income limit for their own good, to protect their mental health - and we wouldn’t be lying in the least.
Ever met a wealthy child?
Monsters. All of em. #eattherich
The truly sad part too, is real connection to the past, to humanity, that wave of empathy and seeing your place in the chain, happens when we are doing the same mundane things that those chucklefucks think their too good for. First time it happened to me I was meading the dough for some daily bread. And it was like the history of my ancestors and I all merged into one, all around this one activity.
People without people aren’t people.
Maybe we the American people should look at who’s blood we’re choosing and why. I’d much prefer a peaceful resolution than violent revolution, and those preventing it need to step aside or face real world consequences, not * real rich world consequences.
We can it climate change because all we know is that the balance of the Holocene is over
It will be less hospitable to humanity because we’ve long lived in ideal conditions. Will it benefit Canada and Russia? I’d argue “no”, because the polar vortex is no joke. Stable climate is good, unpredictable climate is bad
