How the fuck is one of the most rapid mass extinction events a 'niche issue'? This is a literal global holocaust. Billions will be forced to flee their homes. Tens of millions will likely die due to disease, famine, drought, and be killed for the mere act of seeking refuge in the west.

    yeah instead we should be focusing on real issues like which social/racial minority to blame all the problems rich pieces of pig shit cause.

    dude what the fuck even are liberals in their own head? i see so many of them, in so many words, saying "the way to beat republicans is to become republicans. that's how you win elections". WHAT'S THE POINT OF BEATING REPUBLICANS IN ELECTIONS IF YOU'RE JUST ALSO A REPUBLICAN? FUCK YOU, this is why no one is voting for these people. they will mock anyone who rightly points out both parties produce the same material result and then they are literally so fucking clueless and out of touch with reality that they will follow that up by basically saying "but yeah we're the same lol".

    “Well but you see, we all decided that all the destruction caused by climate change is worth it if it means consooming delicious treats! Let people LIVE, dammit! (Unless you’re a minority, then you need to be removed from society because white men find your existence annoying.)”

    Our opponents are mentally literally children.

    "I was smart enough to live at a high latitude and will probably be insulated from major consequences because I only have 20-30 years left, and I'm assuming the government is going to mow down migrants at the border, an event which I will pretend to be sad about if it even makes the news. What matters is that RIGHT NOW there is a president who doesn't have the aesthetic the office requires."

    It's almost like the ruling class deliberately threw a large distraction in front of the longer term threat...

    Mountain lions are scarier than bears though, we can all agree on that right?

        Nahh. You can scare bears away with a loud noise. The cat's going to drop out of the tree and you die never knowing what even killed you.

        Not saying every grizzly's going to leave you alone or run off, but if I gotta choose, I'm never taking the cat.

          There are way less mountain lion attacks than grizzly attacks. And a grizzly is down to eat you alive.

      This galaxy is bound to implode and all you can think of is the weather getting a bit warmer at this particular pixel?

    I would love to know what issue they think could possibly be more pressing than climate change. I have a feeling it isn't the genocide of Palestinians

      Just think of all the homes 50 miles from the coast now that will be beach front properties in the future. The people on the beach now can just sell their homes to aquaman
