      Sorry to tell you this, but if we suddenly woke up tomorrow and made all the possible drastic changes in a single day, it would take well over a decade for the effects to even start setting in.

      The chaos we are living today could only have been prevented by starting many years in the past. So is the reality of very long geological cycles and feedback loops.

        A decade from tomorrow is better than a decade from a decade from now

            As more extreme policies become required, fascists gain power because of the increasing disruption to the way of life that the average person in the region is accustomed to.

              i think the people who were gonna be fascists anyway are already drunk on that mentality, regardless of what we tell them at this point.

              i think theres already a foundation being built in the world’s stage to fight back.

              i guess we will have to see on that one.

        Drastic measures can mean prevention, mitigation, or retribution. It’s too late for prevention, so right now mitigation is the next best thing.
