I'm personally optimistic given what we're seeing happening in China in terms of energy transition. China has lots of scientists who must understand what's happening with the climate, and what to expect. I don't get the impression that there is nihilism in China like there is in the west, so they must think that this problem will be tractable.

I do expect that we will see a lot of global disasters happening as a result of climate change, and life will get hard around the world as a result. But I also hope that enough of humanity will be able to come together to push through these problems and ensure that our civilization continues.

I don't think there's any value in having a fatalistic view on this. We can't know that we'll make it, but all we can do is work towards making the world better and hope that what we do will be enough.

lol no. most westerners still have 0% class consciousness and their main aspiration in life is to become a fucking landlord.

We will because we must

I hope that we do.

My primary concern is the Methane Clathrate Gun Hypothesis.

I think it's unlikely that it will happen, but in short, there is a very real and non-zero chance that a series of massive explosions will trigger globally that may possibly turn Earth instantaneously (at least on the scale of a human life time) into Venus. Billions and billions of tons of methane releases from accelerating global warming that could render life on Earth itself extinct.

If I didn't think that that global socialism is a guarantee in my life time, I would have offed myself by now.

My mindset is diamond-willpower forged in the core of a neutron star.

I hope so, but think not before global ecological collapse

Maybe. This world is rapidly deteriorating, and we've likely already set in many feedback loops that, even if we did a global communism tomorrow at noon, we'd still suffer severe consequences.

This doesn't mean we shouldn't try. We absolutely still have a chance at humanity's survival, and a good one at that.

No

I wish, but unfortunately I just don't think that's possible.
