This is absolutely not true, but true for the capital class.
It's very very true. People are just focused on their day to day. I'm not attacking the individual, I'm just acknowledging that people have bills to pay, kids to raise, personal goals.
Climate change is a societal level issue, so individuals have opinions, and a few options to pitch in, but generally no ability outside of voting to affect mass change.
There's always armed revolution, but nobody's going to do that if they won't even stop voting for climate genocide.
I really do think that at this point, armed revolution is the only thing that will make any meaningful change. We already see that politicians don't give a fuck about us, corporations and billionaires won't do anything that will affect their bottom line, and no matter who we vote for, they get bought out. Sure one party is a little less evil than the other here in the states, but we're coming to a point where the entire system is straight gridlocked because "we've tried everything and we're all out of ideas!".
Although, should it come to armed revolution, half the idiots with guns will start shooting at their fellow countryman while muttering about [insert hot button culture war topic here] instead of going after the group that is responsible for all this shit. So I dunno.
I'm going to keep voting against fascists and authoritarians, but I ain't holding my breath that it'll all get better soon.
me and 20 guys go out and arm up, put on boots and fatigues, fill a backpack with rations and ammo
???
climate crisis solved
Try 20000 and you'll maybe make a dent.
Against the US military's resources? Lol. The second shit hits the fan, the military will begin domestic operations to "keep order," and anyone within their ranks who becomes a consciousness objector will be executed on sight.
You forget that the military is made up of the common person and a lot of people who see and feel first hand exactly what the government fucking them up the ass is like.
no revolution in history had just 20 armed dudes who tought they could individually change the world
