      Well unfortunately for humanity, minimizing, reframing, or simply ignoring man-made climate change doesn’t matter. Distorting reality works great on humans, probably why humans are so eager to try it on climate change, but the physics of our little fishbowl are absolute, it is immune our stupid little human vs. human capitalist propaganda tricks we pull.

      I’ve come to find that almost poetic in the absense of hope. All the lies we tell each other to fuck one another over to get a little more than our neighbors, “I don’t have anything” to the hungry homeless person, “raising interest rates to increase unemployment will help poor people” from the fed to the willful idiots, on and on.

      Say what you will about the coming famines, droughts, superstorms, and novel viruses that come will bring our species to its knees, all of those events will be honest. The climate warned us, it was measurable for over half a century, it basically screamed “there WILL be consequences” as the scientists translated for it. I’m positive millions to billions of willful fools will cry and claim no one saw it coming, but climate change, more than any human government or company in human history, will be Promises Made, Promises Kept.
