Yes, we live in a plutocracy and a few thousand ultra-wealthy fools have purchased influence with institutions worldwide helping them destroy the climate within fossil fuels for personal profit.
These people are not evil geniuses. They are idiots and they are literally insane. They are insane because many of them are engineers and understand the science and KNOW THAT THEY ARE DOOMING THEIR OWN CHILDREN. They don’t care. They are insane.
You know who’s also insane? The billions of ordinary people around the world who allow the wealthy idiots to kill their children. But we are insane not because we believe them, but because we submit to their will.
There are billions of us who love our children and care about the Earth. There are a few thousand idiots, nearly all of them impotent old men who will be dead in a few decades or sooner.
We should send them packing today. They are pathetic and powerless if we chose to disobey them. They produce nothing. They know nothing. They do nothing. They are foolish AND weak.
This summer is going to be very hot and very dry. There will be more wildfires, more ferocious and deadly than every. People will see that our “leaders” area pathetic and useless. Tempers will be short. This could be the Summer of Fire and our opportunity to sweep away the old order worldwide, the order that is killing our species. This could be like the Arab Spring or the fall of communism. This time, the governments and institutions everywhere that have failed to protect the Earth could and must fall: the United States, China, India, Russian, Brazil, more.
It’s the billions of us vs. a few thousand impotent losers. We can do this—with surprising ease—if we just decide to act. Read Summer of Fire. (I’ll provide the link.)
