We are in the end game now.
Update; seriously though. At one hand climate emergency is at its peak, on other we see extreme polarisation and marginalization of minorities and other communities within most societies that used to be relatively stable. How does one remain calm knowing it's impossible to fix it all alone.
It is still possible to fix any of these problems.
But not if we collectively throw up our hands and give up.
Idk man, feels like it's rigged from top to bottom. The country I come from, the media is fully controlled, the opposition is barely functional, and the public support for the current leaders is tremendous, despite all the hate speech and unscientific temperament. One person speaks up, 10,000 silence it back.
