    You are—tragically—100% percent correct in my opinion. That is as I also see, the reality we live in. The shortsighted Neoliberal imbéciles would choke to death on a dollar if they had to eat their way to a penny.

    However.

    Even though things will, to heavily understate, suck, I’d urge you to not fully give in to despair. Last time Fascism rose, it bit them in the ass and they backed the other horse eventually.

    I am not looking forward to dodging (or liquidating) brown shirts and Nazis, so if we can avoid that and just be poised for when climate catastrophe puts on the knife-edge of “this has never happened before” that would be great.

    Those with thoughts like yours will be needed. The Resistance will need leaders and scholars to delineate the purpose.

    Reality sucks and we shouldn’t have to fight for it because of thousands of greedy piggies, but it’s manifesting and we’ll have to decide.

    We need to vote. We should all vote. Then start working on what we need beyond that in what little steps we all can. The literal morning after the election, preferably.
