Damn, the one thing she’s right on.

that’s a coinidence, guess what I’m going to blame America’s impending economic crash on?

I think disappointment in people is a very reasonable attitude. In fact I think cynicism towards people in general is one of the core defining attitudes of our time, and it transcends political boundaries.

But as a filthy leftoid, I believe that there are socio-economic forces which are responsible for how people are in a given era. The spread of misinformation on the internet, social alienation, poor education with no media literacy, logic or critical thinking - these are not innate flaws in human kind, they are failures of society that can be fixed.

So you can see we have a real problem, because leftism and even liberalism is built upon respect for and faith in humanity - but very few act like it.

You mean all that oil money that was spent on lying to the public and bribing politicians could have been spent on solving the problem this whole time?

Amazing how easily it’s happened with barely any effort. We could have fixed climate change 50 years ago but the fossil fuel industry wanted their money so now the earth is fucked

A guy in the US drives about 40 miles on average a day and there’s evs that can do 10x that now
