    For me American prison sounds a lot worse than whatever comes from climate change, so personally I’d pick that.

      For now. Give it a few decades when the effects of climate change start forcing people out of their homes, cause widespread crop failure, kill thousands with heatwaves and storms, etc.

      If you’re choice is between

      1. losing your home, starving to death, or in some way dying in the streets

      Or

      1. losing your home, starving to death, or in some way dying in the streets after holding those responsible to account a la the adjuster

      More and more people will choose option 2.

        I mean even thinking that that’d be the actual situation for me where I live in few decades vs. spending those few decades and rest of my life in American prison, it’s going to be a very easy decision for me

        I mean, come on. Uncertain future some decades ago vs the certainty that I’m rotting in an American prison for the rest of my life starting now. Easiest decision of my life

          It very well could be the rest of your life in both cases.

            Yes and that still gives me some decades before something might happen vs spending those decades and the rest of my life in American prison. I mean have you really considered the options here lol

              I think you’ve misunderstood. I’m talking about the choice that people make when these effects start happening, not a choice now. Of course most people aren’t opting to get violent yet, there backs aren’t yet against the wall.

                In that case I wouldn’t worry about either choice if it’s decades away. I’d wait and see how bad it gets before making the decision.

                  Sure. But my whole point is that we’re headed in that direction.

                    We are. But it’s just American prisons are so horrific that you’ll really want to wait and see how bad it gets before choosing to put yourself in one.
