The only way we're going to solve the climate crisis is through bloodshed (in Minecraft), I guarantee it. There's too much money in it for anyone to willingly give up their golden goose. However, most people don't want to kill each other and most people especially don't want to be the first person to pull the trigger, because those people rarely live to see the fruits of their labor (in Minecraft). As such, might as well pretend there's a potential alternative that doesn't involve murdering people (in Minecraft).

When more areas become unlivable due to temperature or rising sea levels, and more harvests start failing due to extreme weather, shit will get real fast.

(the joke being that you're probably not the target)

I was joking that we are all fucked because climate change and nobody really doing much to actually address it.

They've already started using razor wire traps in the Rio Grande to murder refugees fleeing the tropics.

Clock is ticking until they deploy landmines.

Wonder how long it'll take for conservatives to essentially legalize hunting refugees for sport

There are already instances of sheriffs deputizing citizens to help "police the border."

Now the psychos who couldn't actually get a job doing this shit are allowed to do it for free.
