Quote of the day (from @pluralistic )

"We’re in the polycrisis, a widening gyre of climate emergency, inequality, infrastructure neglect, rising authoritarianism and zoonotic plagues.
But that’s not the bad part."

So what is the bad part?

THE BAD PART IS THAT THE PEOPLE WHO ARE IN A POSITION TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT ARE ALL TELLING YOU THAT THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT, YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN.

I see an inverted pyramid of critical issues with an inability to address them due to partisanship & overconfidence in limited knowledge.

The people who are in a position of power are more powerful than those claiming powerlessness & self-reliance. They're intentional organized crime, a deeper explanantion getting my accounts locked/suspended both here & on Twitter, but there's enough common knowledge for accurate inference.
