The tiny class of private shareholders making it this way.
I personally have pity for rank and file Republican voters.
They were simply easy marks our education system intentionally failed to teach critical thinking and reason to because obedient laborers don’t need that, and were then spoonfed sensationalist lies that appealed to their fears and anxieties, the easiest avenues for indoctrination, for the last half century under the guise of being “news” for the private profit of private shareholders and to turn them into useful idiot dependable votes for those same private shareholders to effectively capture their regulators and government that was once meant to protect us from them.
As just one in an ocean of examples, Fox “News” has been telling these poor sad bastards that “man made climate change is a hoax for scientists to sell books!”
The only public assistance recipient that, by rhetoric, deserves to be called a welfare queen.

When I buy a game, I want a game.
Not yet another platform to bleed my wallet dry.
“herp derp AI will never turn on us, we can just unplug them lol”
Hey now that’s not fair.
We have a globally recognized national pastime that defines who we are as a people really well.
We lead the developed world in mass shootings.
No one lets their kids shoot their other kids as they gawk and do nothing (except make ad revenue off the coverage) like us Americans. pew pew pew Murica pew pew. 🇺🇸
Coldest, shortest summer of the rest of our lives.
Hope all the Pop Figures were worth it.

I mean, I’d agree with you, but the humans that actually aren’t a threat to the planet, that lived in homeostasis with the Earth, barely exist anymore, the humans with flags saw to that.
For the record yes, the developed world’s quality of life should be much, much, much, lower, and the very concept of economic growth/metastasis should be a widely accepted slur at this point, as it’s killing us.
Part of not being a threat to Earth is also not building and maintaining, let alone growing a massive military industrial complex, which means being destroyed by humans that want your shit and don’t care about the future doing it, so it’s a paradox.
Market capitalism is destroying us, our homes, and literally our only habitat.
Their guard gates are mostly decorative. We could save our species and the habitability of the planet.
Instead some think we can petition the government they’ve fully owned for half a century to mitigate the harm they bought our government to commit with abandon, lol.
Why? We’re all about validating cruelty under the guise of because the Bible tells me so.
The US, my shithole of birth, will do whatever is in the economic interests of the owner class, and Israel is sadly a very good customer and business partner. But yeah, the politicians will absolutely thump a bible in front of some idiot constituents to keep selling it.
It’s tradition.
Honestly, in the course of our species living in servitude to a few thousand sociopaths who’ve used their capital/power to convince us that meaningless productivity for toxic economic metasisis is “the only way forward” and the meaning of life, I’ve come to realize their terraforming of our only habitat against our physically fragile species in their blind, reckless pursuit of ever moar is a purely accidental mercy.
Extinction is far preferable to generation after generation sacrificing themselves from cradle to grave solely to enrich our modern pharoahs of avarice and their nepo progeny without end. Sometimes extinct is better.
You’re free to disagree, of course, but better to see the silver lining in what our species is quite literally dead set to do and well into accomplishing. Im just glad greed caused climate change won’t permit this torturous, exploitative civilization to continue for more than another half century or so.
Weird line considering what we’re willing to do to nation states to keep their citizens from cooperating socially rather than competing against one another to keep their resource extraction rights open to our capitalists for maximum exploitation.
Let me answer your question with another question.
Will the masses literally having loved ones killed by greed induced climate change ever accept that the toxic social opiates they’re fed to remain complacent (social media, fast food, unnecessary plastic crap, literal opiates, etc) aren’t worth burning our sole, shared habitat and any future for humanity in the name of short term private profit, and both bring justice to them and accept the necessary reduced quality of life that will come with the necessary destruction of the supply chains destroying the human habitability of the planet for millions of years?
Because incremental change would have been an option… Half a century ago when we were loudly warned. Drastic action is necessary today, the kind that will make a billion including possibly you and I starve. I argue that if there is any decency in our species… At all… we should, otherwise we’re telling all potential future generations to go fuck themselves over our Postmates and Pop Figures.
