Trying to work with Biden to stop climate change? Sure, dude, I get it. But now praising people like John Kerry like they're some climate warriors? Like, why???
It's really depressing that shit like this happens to every god damn person/organization that gets even a second to sit at the table with the powerful (I know this is just one small interaction, but they've been acting like this for a while now).

If you're framing potential apocalypse as a "national security threat" then no you have not even the remotest fucking idea what we're up against and what's required to deal with it.
Talking about potentially billions of deaths in the next century as if he's ginning up support for invading and occupying some failed state with a dictator we installed, fucking pathetic.
That's not how the military would approach climate change.
The military would instead, be building more walls and pushing for broader border security and preparations against potential migrants (MORE funding to ICE, MORE funding to DHS, etc etc). The whole idea of the military handling climate change is to paint migrants out as a threat and prevent them from entering the country and leaving them to die elsewhere. Further more, they would be protecting US interests across the world in fossil fuels and raw minerals.
If anything, the military will be occupying the US, which is the same result if they are ever handed the keys to deal with the pandemic we're in right now. A truly terrifying, and scary as shit scenario that few people aren't really talking about.
