    There’s always armed revolution, but nobody’s going to do that if they won’t even stop voting for climate genocide.

          Against the US military’s resources? Lol. The second shit hits the fan, the military will begin domestic operations to “keep order,” and anyone within their ranks who becomes a consciousness objector will be executed on sight.

            You forget that the military is made up of the common person and a lot of people who see and feel first hand exactly what the government fucking them up the ass is like.

      I really do think that at this point, armed revolution is the only thing that will make any meaningful change. We already see that politicians don’t give a fuck about us, corporations and billionaires won’t do anything that will affect their bottom line, and no matter who we vote for, they get bought out. Sure one party is a little less evil than the other here in the states, but we’re coming to a point where the entire system is straight gridlocked because “we’ve tried everything and we’re all out of ideas!”.

      Although, should it come to armed revolution, half the idiots with guns will start shooting at their fellow countryman while muttering about [insert hot button culture war topic here] instead of going after the group that is responsible for all this shit. So I dunno.

      I’m going to keep voting against fascists and authoritarians, but I ain’t holding my breath that it’ll all get better soon.
