The overall message here I think is: action is still necessary, but the reality is that we’re too caught up in politics and economics and we missed our chance at mitigation. Now we need to look to how to cope with what’s coming.

    No we can’t. Nothing is going to stop the profits.

      Yes we can. Doomerism only guarantees our failure. Collective action still matters, it still has an effect.

      Capitalism will bring us to ruin if allowed to continue, and we will indeed need to have a reckoning with it, or perish. If you want that reckoning to be tried, then join in your local communities, organize, unionize your job, help your friends and family unionize theirs, and prepare together.

      At least then we’ll have a chance.
