      I love being dehumanized. There’s at least half of America that doesn’t support this crap, and voted against it. But yeah, we dont deserve anything.

      Okay but what about everyone else? Because they’re not getting that data either.

      And what about US-American climate scientists? Like the climate scientists are not to blame for this.

      Be kind to people, be ruthless to systems.

          No? Everyone else doesn’t deserve access to US-American climate data? Because even if US-Americans all unilaterally deserve the worst, then what about the innocent people the empire has damned to a climate-related death?

          Buy guns and sacrifice.

          This is individualistic thinking. I absolutely support armed insurrection against the US government, but we gotta organize, we gotta gather support, we gotta get the masses involved in their own liberation.

          Individualistic tactics by those with high risk tolerances need to be complemented by collectivist actions.

          It’s just not as simple as “buy a gun and go out in a blaze of glory”.

                Your comment is a good example of why “the right” is dominating your country. You’re a hostage in your own country and you defend the culture that got you there. You fight using the tools “they” gave you on purpose because “they” know they will fail. You are a culture of owned flesh and blood, like cattle. And the truth is everyone is too indoctrinated and made to live submissive to fight the reality of the situation or to live for actual humanity.

                Now face it, the tax you pay pays for the shit you claim to hate. And you still pay it. You fear the reality that if you lived for actual humanity you would need to make a real sacrifice of YOUR life. The culture you represent already kills people so that’s not the issue for you. The issue is you fear for your life. You fear that sacrifice, not the end of the lives of others. Don’t act like paying tax for the military to kill isn’t like paying a hitman. The fact is your fear for your own life IS how this machine was built. By people that feared real life so much they pay for this machine to do the dirty work of existence. They think it’s the default state of human life to have that privilege of people murdering for them.

                People see through the bullshit now… Don’t try to claim you’re innocent when you’re paying their taxes to fund wars and camps. You are them.

              Then do it. I never said anything about not planning or a blaze of glory.

              You said “Buy a gun and sacrifice” but without any discussion of what to actually do with those guns. Maybe I read too much into your words, I’ll cop to that, but it felt like you were implying that buying guns and nebulously “sacrificing” are the solutions. My point is that we need to actually do stuff with those guns and our sacrifices.

              And strictly speaking, I did not say that you said those things. By your logic, I could accuse you of putting words in my mouth…but it’s more likely you are just trying to read the subtext of what I said, which is absolutely reasonable.

              People standing for humanity don’t give a shit about your political system or nation.

              Okay fine boycott us I literally don’t care, I fucking hate this country…but to do accurate climate research, you need climate data from across the globe, right? I mean sure you could interpolate the missing data, but would that be physically accurate? Probably not.

              The way you people talk your talk is just as bullshit as the methods of the right.

              No lol, leftists are incredibly rare in this country so even when we do go out and do stuff, it gets drowned out by liberals and liberal media. Like there are absolutely people arming themselves, doing mutual aid, protesting, doing direct actions, etc., but the culture here is working against us.

              Like the Mafia boss ain’t shit if he’s alone. Under that metaphor, there just aren’t many mafiosos around here.


              Like I literally do not disagree with your commentary about US-American culture and I am perfectly willing to let you vent at me about my neighbors and even myself, but you’re missing the forest for the trees here. This isn’t a W for you. It just sucks for everyone.
