This is the reason we’re should focus out efforts to make a ruckus and force decision makers to enforce carbon neutrality BY NEXT YEAR instead of by next century. Of course that won’t happen but that would be the reasonable way.
Unfortunately, they’d probably call in the military in the case of a general strike. At least try to assassinate the leadership.
Guillotines might result in less and more well directed bloodshed. Though, I don’t disagree entirely. That kind of violence, any kind of mass violence, ends up at least somewhat with spillover and misdirection.
We are all tired and angry, and it would seem violence could provide an amount of catharsis and finality. Yet I think the situation is too dynamic to be sure of a positive outcome. Peaceful but firm methods should be tried first, at least.
Will just result in new draconian laws being drafted and enacted. Watch how fast people lose the right to peaceful assembly if it actually affected the ruling class.
Yes, we did invent it. However, that was done by a small group of people that have been in power for generations, and kept it difficult to change to a better system.
What I’m trying to say is that I think most people probably don’t find it very fair that someone like Bezos can just be so ridiculously rich.
If we just give up, then there is a 0% chance. If we try, then the chance of succession isn’t zero. We have to try to be optimistic. Yes, the world is fucked, but hey, giving up is just accepting that and allowing it.
Maybe when I see the magical communist revolution where humanity doesn’t destroy itself I’ll be a believer, but until then, I think humanity as a whole is a destructive force for bad.
I don’t really think communism in the extreme version is currently a solution, but there is a simpler solution for now for the ultra-rich if you tax them for a large amount of money proportional to the income let’s say 100% after 10 million per year you quickly fix (I guess bandaid-patch) a big problem with capitalism.
But I drive my car less, that should do it! /s

A general strike? Say the word
God, I wish.

I mean people set fires and bombs in pursuit of the right to vote and we could argue that climate change is far more existential.
Don’t kill the wealthy. Redistribute their wealth and make them part of the working class.
It’s a fate worse than death in their eyes.
The Reign of Terror was a bad thing, actually.
You overestimate the usefulness of political violence in domestic matters

Hard to say.

I think some rights you either have, fight for, or you just default to being a slave
Fuck humans, let em all die, the rest of the species on earth will be thrilled.
Don’t blame the symptom for the disease.
Capitalism didn’t just pop up out of a vacuum to fuck humanity over, we invented it and have continuously supported it to do so.

Maybe we can change this.
You really think that’s going to happen? Lmao. Yeah sure, and next we’ll have world peace and end poverty.
Greedy, easily corruptable and prone to violent authoritarianism- describes like 85% of our species now and throughout recorded history.
Stop nice-washing humanity and wake the fuck up. You’re not going to end capitalism, too many people benefit from it to let you.

Good lol, let humanity die, no other animals have extinction events named after them.

We lost the class war, the climate is fucked.
Most species on earth will be dead in any situation that wipes out humanity.
Hopefully another super predator doesn’t evolve and create its own extinction event 😵
The first super predator to wipe out life on earth also did it through climate change, which I find kind of poetic.

Don’t worry it will happen. It won’t be long
