This video doesn't get posted enough--I heard about it months ago but only just now watched it.

They're cutting down all the trees to burn as fuel.

        But fight for what? What's the solution to this? The timescale for nuclear is way too long to be a solution either. Sorry but shit like this makes me just want to give up

          Nuclear is 100% ready for prime time, and the only serious obstacle to its proliferation is effete NIMBY liberals.

              Damn, if only there was something we could do with nuclear waste, other than throwing it in the sea 🤔

          My plan was to get Bernie elected, but they wouldn't even give us that. I'm trying to do some programming ideas and learning about socialism through this site. I just learned Greenpeace is fucking sellouts, woohoo.

          I think they won't go for nuclear because it's not profitable enough. Capitalism is taking money from the easiest places first, and that alone will destroy everything. We need regulation with teeth to even hope to stop any of it. Or we need a global strike and global revolution.

          As a long shot, SimCity predicted 2030 for nuclear fusion. Let's invent it and use it to mine bitcoin!
