I was mostly joking, but there is a zero chance we could keep the Earth inhabitable without massive violence and restriction of "freedoms". You say "people can suck it up" but they won't, at least not willingly. US elites will literally kill millions of people to maintain favorable conditions in the oil market. They will not play ball and they have more power than all of us combined. They need to have that power forcefully taken from them with violence if we are ever going to do anything for the climate.
I said that they "can" not that they "will". Sadly I know our masters are too whipped by capitalism to do anything. They'd have to be forced by the people revolting. As conditions turn to shit, they might just have to to avoid extinction.
