It's just bizarre to me as someone who came to leftist thought because I want to minimize suffering to see others celebrating additional suffering. I'm aware that neither of our posts are impactful.
A revolution absolutely would minimize suffering though, regardless of how it comes about. I don't see how you can think us trundling along doing as we're doing now somehow means less suffering
Either the status quo holds and we all die to climate change, or things collapse, the fascists take charge and we all die from climate change. Either way we’re boned. At least with collapse or decline there’s a chance that the left becomes stronger. I don’t blame people for cheering on collapse, it’s basically the only way things will change at this point.
One can acknowledge all that without going "good news, everyone! More starvation!"
My reaction to this news story has no impact on anyone's life. It literally doesn't matter at all

You mean a revolution that ends with your ideal outcome.
"A revolution" that happens now or in the near future is probably going to not be that. It's probably going to end up with the fascists empowered.

What if the good thing that you obviously have in mind is bad? Hmmm what then????
I see this is going nowhere. Have a good one.
