    When famine strikes, aren’t you gonna be so happy our society is set up the way it is because the “needle” is moved far from where you want it to be

      If (not when, defeatist) it is, it won’t be because of my defeatist attitude. If I go down, I go down fighting. You go down whining. Maybe you should be part of the solution?

        Right, cause your attitude will fix everything. Hope will save the day. You sound like you think life is a movie, reality is right around the corner and nature is not too kind to people who think they are above it

          I think hard work gets us there, not bitching and complaining. Children like you motivate me to make the world better for everyone, and I put my money where my mouth is. And I’m damn good at what I do.

          As for the rest of whatever you said, I don’t understand the relevance, but I’m sure it’s designed to make people feel like they can’t have an impact, and that doom is inevitable.

            Doom is the path we have laid. You reap what you sow. Until we get off the path of doom, I’m gonna keep talking about trying to get us out of it. Seems you have plans to fix the world. I wish you the best of luck :)

              Feel better about yourself knowing that you served as a prime example of how to break the exact mind set you’re promoting. Working hard towards a solution is the answer, and talking about it in the way you do I think serves the exact purpose you intend, asshole.

              And for those who aren’t in the capacity to push the needle as hard as others, sometimes hope is all you have. Hope in good people doing the right thing. Like, literally Obama’s campaign poster. And you’d take that from them? That’s heartless.

                When did i promote a mindset? I was just saying that this list

                Inflation is out of control. Housing is unaffordable. The healthcare system is broken. Everyone is drowning in student debt. Ecosystems are collapsing. We’re constantly on the brink of war.

                Is still true no matter who or what controls the government
