Is it a hot take to like the original mad Max the most or is that the standard opinion? I found that one way more unnerving than any of the others

I found that one way more unnerving than any of the others I've only seen the first and the second but I kind of consider them to be in the same vein as alien/aliens, or terminator/terminator 2. Both absolutely fantastic but also so different you can't really directly compare them.

Who wants these climate migrants (Westerners) in their back yard? Destroying the economy, spiking inflation, stressing our energy and water grids. We must think of ourselves before we think of others. The world is tough and it is unfair but it is not our duty to bear the burdens of those who have been met with misfortune. We must create a security force to prevent these people from destabilizing our civilization and if these people get to our territory we must establish 'migration facilities' to 'concentrate' them as we do not know what type of diseases these people may carry.

Hubbert posted:im already there quote:The impact of global warming and other ecological disruptions build slowly over time, and governments and ordinary citizens alike have every reason to hold things together as long as possible. He underestimated feedback loops. And I think covid clearly showed us the only thing governments and citizens try to hold together, is the illusionary capitalist economy, which they'll cling to even to the detriment of preventing real ecological disruptions.

Radio Ecoshock podcast has been rereleasing old episodes, and this weeks' was one from COP24 which is an interview of Greta Thunberg. I had to turn it off after 15 minutes due to the very uncomfortable knowledge that nothing at all has been achieved since then to make things any better.

the u.s., tho, is an empire built on suffering, brutally and with horrific atrocity after horrific atrocity in stride of inflicting maximum suffering upon everyone everywhere for the sake of extracting profit, so i'm sure it'll be fine sufferingpack as far as the eye can see hold on, i'm getting word about the tendency of the rate of profit--

If I had any hope left in fixing the climate the amount of people I have run into in the past month that are furious about being "forced to eat bugs" would have eliminated it.

You give people a gross nonsense solution to think about, rather than any real solutions that achieve anything, and then you create anti-climate change pushback. Since this is created in the RW by the media but not on the left it makes the opposing side more likely to support the nonsense solution and more likely to support future nonsense solutions lest they be lumped in with those narsty CHUDS. It's a simple effective strategy that they use for mostly everything these days. On the left it's "we gotta do whatever it takes; I'm a faithful believer" on the right it's "why should I eat the bugs when jina and indiuh are still polluting". With the former you get nice compliance with non-solutions, happy citizens doing their part. With the latter you get correct observation (futility) leading to disavowal of the entirety of remediation efforts End result is the rich stay rich, get richer, poor stay poor, get poorer, we all die. Eating the bugs is a personality quirk in your poverty to death or rich to death timeline. It's not a climate change solution. Climate change solutions sound like: house the homeless so people don't die from weather, provide universal healthcare and preventative care so people don't die from weather/illness, stop waging war so that lands do not become barren and to curtail among the largest CO2 emissions, expropriate the ruling class so they can't take private jet flights and own 10 climate controlled homes, nationalize water, nationalize oil, nationalize power, nationalize farming. You remediate climate change by eliminating class as a non-negotiable. Rather than talking about that we're talking about bugs.

I mean it wouldn't stop the climate from warming. Too much emissions lag, too much aerosol dimming to overcome, too many feedback loop genies to shove back in the bottle. It would let people live a little longer but they would still in all likelihood die prematurely from the inhospitability of the planet. For what it's worth I'd participate in the revolution despite this correct observation.

Lmao "ban non-indigenous hunting" is a loving brain worm Just ban hunting and stop going off about "traditional foodways" when the entire planet is suffused in microplastic and those foodways have been obliterated by five centuries of kapos and genocide "Ban non-indigenous hunting" is a surefire way to make immediate, mortal enemies of the white rurals

bakelite rules and is a good example of why the problem isn't plastics, its capitalist consumerism driving waste like single use plastics. i have a number of things that are 70+ years old, make of bakelite and still completely functional.

Speaking of invasive species, there's so many more lantern flies this year than last. Last year I thought they were kinda pretty but they're actually ugly as gently caress and I can't stand them. They barely fly they just tumble onto your leg and tumble off like looossers.

Mr. Sharps posted:i got to see it last time it went off and yeah it was a decent day hike, probably six hours out and back total. water and snacks is all that was needed, the real threat was the wind was so strong at times that it could catch the lava plumes and end up raining scalding hot razor sharp chunks of rock all over the trails. the drone footage is definitely impressive but seeing something like that in person was pretty amazing and imo worth it i saw it too, it was incredible. i could *hear* the lava splashing in the caldera. i'll never forget it i think a lot of elderly folks and outright morons might have regretted the trek, though
