      Getting older and seeing that it hasn’t happened yet xD

      I now see the checks and balances in place to prevent society from actually destroying itself. Everything is more managed/controlled than you’d think it is, in a typical “western country” like the USA or Britain.

        CO2 ppm just keep rising, little by little. Covid response showed we could do a lot more, but we just don’t want to.

        You dont see the coordinated efforts of several right-wing billionaires to influence elections and public thought through corruption and social media, as well as the actions of private equity firms swallowing up any market that lets them, raising the prices on basic things like food and housing… all that, doesn’t frighten you?

        I hope you’re right, but I feel like we’re barely prepared for what’s coming next.
