@KeithMcNeill Folks really need to be looking for ways to starve the petrofascists at every opportunity.
Greenhouse gases are baking the planet; every stage of fossil fuel extraction, transport, refining, & use releases toxic pollutants; petrofascists pollute our politics in the U.S. and abroad; fossil-fuel dependence leaves people poorer and leaves nations highly vulnerable to geopolitical instability.
Self-control and Independence will be key to our victory.
We need to break their control by challenging and overcoming our fears, and breaking down the psychological barriers and group identities their hierarchy enforces.
Equality must first exist in our minds before we can bring it out into the world.
True Independence comes after we plant our own food, manage our own shelter, and we dont need their coercive economic system to live.
It's hard, but doable.
