How do you explain periods where there was prosperity and an autocratic shift at the same time? Like Early Modern Europe or present-day China.
Are fear and prosperity exclusive? Or can your nation be prosperous while it is fearing climate change?
Hmm, I guess.
That being said, where I live, there's fear but it's not really about climate change. Yet, this is a global trend. I don't know, I guess I don't really have a better idea, but just fear seems a bit too simple.
Fear is the mind-killer, the little death that brings total obliteration.
