I fucking hate this. Its all for literally nothing. For fucking money. Money. Imaginary pieces of paper. Even worse, imaginary numbers on a fucking screen. Data. It’s all for fucking nothing. We won’t avoid the 1.5 C mark, and it might come in 5 years. 2 C would mean basically the end of any semblance of normal, at all, and the collapse of the global south. Forget even 3 degrees, I’d probably already be dead. They won. They fucking won. No revolution in the Imperial Core is possible. Everyone is a chud, or a lib, or a left anticommunist. We can’t fucking win. It’s over. The world is over. doomjak

    Look, I get why people say this, but ‘There will be 100k or so humans living in a dead biosphere filled with plastic and unexploded ordinance with an increasingly out of control climate’ isn’t exactly a comforting thought when we are looking at the magnitude of unimaginable human suffering that everyone who lives that long will be witness to before humanity gets to that point.

    Extinction? Yes, it’s possible that humans avoid it. But that seems irrelevant to the whole seeing the apocalypse before we die thing.
