    Focus on “joy” and hope you are rich enough to feel really good about life until it all blows up?

    That seems to be the stance of the younger and the wealthier left, and you can see the nightmare self hatred that is already causing if you aren’t.

      i can’t tell if this is supposed to be sarcasm or not but this is godawful moral advice.

      “stay comfy and forget about it if you can”

      do we or do we not have an obligation to be stewards of the earth? obviously the decision is a personal one. i guess i’ve decided with my post existential thoughts that we do, and that if you don’t agree with me, i don’t want you on my team. or the planet for that matter.

        Its pretty godawful advice.

        But it’s advice I do see going around and people taking seriously.

            Do you ask everyone that question or you decide I know something you don’t?
