    Climate change is literally on position 4 out of 5 for voters. People are absolute fucking morons and at this point I think we should just go extinct. This is ridiculous.

      Humanity can go extinct. We deserve it. I feel bad for all the animals we kill along with us.

        It’s difficult to extinct us. If will take a thousand years of volcanoes, bad harvests, pandemics without vaccines, etc.

        We’re just so many now.

        What’s a lot faster is to wipe away the achievements of civilization, pushing us back into a state where starvation, disease and suffering are the norm and not the exception.

      If you can’t afford your bills you don’t care about climate change.

      Edit: I know, that climate change will only worsen your financial situation, but a lot of people don’t see the long term effects on them and the economy.

        Part of the reason why you can’t afford your bills is climate change and it’s going to get worse, doesn’t prevent people from taking their car to drive 500m to drop their kids to school!

        Well, the conservatives will sure help the little man to have more money in their pockets. (PSA: they won’t)

        Also, if the land you live on is flooded or dries out, you can’t live there anymore. That’s the far greater threat to peoples’ existence. They just think they’ll be among the lucky survivors and only some nasty brown people will die.

          It seems anti-immigration is driving all these right wing votes. And xenophobia manifests from the naïve idea that immigrants will somehow reduce incomes.

        What is the priority then? I guess the sensible option would be to tax the rich more, and fight for a better distribution of wealth, right?

        But that is not at all what the blue and right parties are standing for, quite the contrary.

          The human is primed for tribalism and these parties are exploiting that bug to offer the always-attractive solution of “this group of people is to blame”. This time, it’s Muslims and generally immigrants.

        If you can’t afford your bills you don’t care about climate change.

        Well, then you should even more care about climate change. Like I said, morons. But we all know that the rise of the far right isn’t because of people’s bills.

          The Bad financial Situation of people is one reason why people tend to vote for the right wing parties. Its not the only one, but its part of the problem.

            The main & absolute biggest reason is racism. And again:

            Like I said, morons.
