    short anecdote:

    I met a girl from afghanistan recently and it kinda made me understand why it’s so important to accept these people. they’ve really been through a lot and not accepting them would be a bad mistake.

    It’s how people say: you’re against migration until you’ve actually met some migrants.

    Still, it sours me that we talk so much about migration and migrants and so little about the reasons for migration, which are the horrible wars that the US and allies have fought in afghanistan and nearby countries for long time for practically little to no reason. honestly, it’s the US’s fault, and they should take some responsibility and actually care for these people, even if only financially.

      This is not really the community for doomer sci-fi. And I don’t think it’s particularly healthy to consume it. It just demotivates people who are (or would be) fighting for a better future.

      we have failed to stop climate change

      So far. But there is no definitive end point. We know the future is going to be rougher than the present but that is all.

      This is the horrifying and inevitable future because of neoliberalism

      And neoliberalism can’t be beat?
