What gets me is that we know we are driving our species to extinction, and every other species along with it.
And instead of trying to stop it, we are actively fighting against the people who want to fix things.
To be fair not every other species, life will carry on just fine once we’re gone, new species will evolve to fill the niches left empty by the species we killed off. Just give it a few million years.
The devastation we bring upon the planet will be disastrous in the short term (planet time scale), but it’s just a new set of living conditions for evolution to bump up against. Us humans and many other species decently high up the food chain will suffer greatly, but I have no question that life will continue. There’s radiotrophic fungi growing in the Chernobyl containment. Life will find a way. Humans - we’ll see.

Maybe, we don’t know what climate change has in store for us. The most extreme scenarios in models are starting to play out right now, and we’re only at the beginning of what’s projected to occur.
Judges get really finicky about outside influences on their jury.
Hold up a sign about jury nullification outside of any courthouse. You’re going to have a similar outcome.
It kind of makes sense, in theory the litigators of the prosecution and defense are going to present their arguments. And the jury should only use that data to make their decision.
What boils my blood, is where one side is not allowed to make an argument, which is common sense, but for some obscure reason, weird ruling, ancient president, one side is not allowed to give relevant data to the jury. I.e. back when weed was a big deal they busted a guy for having a bunch of weed, but they wouldn’t let him mention to the jury that he had paid the legal weed tax stamps for his weed. Seems like a highly relevant piece of information. Highly contextual
So the law she is reminding them of is written on the front of the building behind her. Seems ridiculous to be charged for that and is just this shitty government clamping down on environmental protest.
If the punishment is steep for a protest, time to move from paper to bricks
The decision to prosecute Warner was made by the government’s solicitor general, Michael Tomlinson KC, a minister and the Conservative MP for Mid Dorset and North Poole.
Oh look, the Tories are displaying their green credentials again. If this lot had any chance of winning at the next GE they wouldn’t be doing this.
You forget, you’re a subject, not a citizen.
Get back to work.
The fuck is wrong with the world. Grizzled oldie/social worker, holds up sign for justice, gets sent to jail. These officials are part of the largest gang in the world.
Nothing good has ever come from conservatism. Conservatism brings only oppression and death.

To actually be immune, you need to dump a bunch of CO2 into the atmosphere, so as to increase the odds of an intense storm flooding the street.
