Here I thought it was about the ongoing climate crisis, and general degradation and collapse of the ecosystems around us. We’re told it’s a mental health issue to be worried about the world around us.
The ironic thing is you’re comment about being worried about the economy is kind of on the nose as to how we got here. Everyone’s so worried about the economy, and our circumstances withim that economy that, nobody is paying attention to the fact that we’re making parts of the planet uninhabitable right now.
Yeah the issue is rhat we are expected to serve the economy above all else. Nothing but stock prices and quarterly growth matters, which has destroyed our social relationships, environment, media, sense of community, and purpose.
Well, it’s many things. I just happened to pick the economy because that came to mind first, but the general idea of people being depressed because the ultra-wealthy and large corporations are fucking up the planet is still the same.
I mean I don’t see why we can’t fix the economy and the climate and politics all in one fell swoop.
1% control the wealth, and through that wealth they control politics, and they gained that wealth by exploiting the economy. Repossess everything that was gained through exploitative means and redistribute that to the working class. The politicians no longer get lobbied unless the masses want a program. People now have the wealth and financial security to pursue education. Educated people vote to fix the climate.
Problem solved. Eat the rich. It would be nice if it could be done peacefully, but if not then the working class has to employ more forceful measures. I’m not advocating violence(because that’s against TOS), but I am saying that if you truly care about anything around you, then you should fix the one problem causing all of it.

Here’s limited time access to a meditation app and 3 free counseling sessions at the online only therapist of our choosing.

You can’t fix one without the other, they’re all intrinsically linked. https://wcfia.harvard.edu/publications/centerpiece/fall2018/transcript_jodidi11-5-2018
