    The small oasis’ as the planet dies are targeted to be controlled by the rich, they own the weapons manufacturing companies, the medicine labs, the agrucultural tech; they will undemocratically call the shots and you will know your place.
    Sounds like we’re on the fast track to this reality.

      It really does. It doesn’t so much where i’m from. I’d say most, by no means not all, would feel pretty lucky in their comparative situation.

      But internationally the unjustified levels of private ownership, and rentier capitalists doing sweet tenths of fuck all, and ongoing inequities, has captured and crushed the dynamism of the Post War settlements.

      Regardless, we need to, as we can’t continue as we are ignoring the laws of nature but I’d rather we did it in a managed and equitable way i.e.

      Instead we seem to have defaulted to the oligarchs and us peasants as a way to organise our society and voters will enable that to continue at the next election.

      Not quite sure why people choose that but here we are.
