To have any chnave we have to engage in demand destruction. There are NO solutions involving growing the economy, we’ll fuck around trying though and make it much worse

It doesnt have to mean a shitty life, it does.mean a differnt life eg no car and cycle and PT means no car costs, denser quieter cities, large houses banned, small really well insulated homes only, less deaths from car polluton etc. We need to ban flying, close airports etc

All we’re doing now is greenwashed nonsense and blah blah blah. At mimum we should be building no more roads and only funding e trains and e bus lanes etc

We’ve barley started with planned withdrawal from coast lines.

We either crash the economy (preferably equitably) or we collapse civilisation, were out of choices, we have left it to long. Neither the ALP nor the LNO are up to the task but that’s on voters supporting those assholes.

A lot of people wrongly though that.

Mostly the rhetoric I heard in personal conversations was conservative talking points about blaming The Greens for not allowing enough back burning and blame The Greens for not allowing nuclear.

Insee some if the same.stuoid nonses spouted in the Canadian less by conservative polticans there.

The Greens have never been in power at the state or federal level and can’t draft legislation. The conservative LNP have been in power literally for decades and drafted all the legislation but here we are.

I Vote Green, me and the another 128 Australians.

I am sure we won’t get out of this.

You’re in good company with that line of thinking

DANIEL KAHNEMAN is not hopeful. “I am very sorry,” he told me, “but I am deeply pessimistic. I really see no path to success on climate change.”

Kahneman’s views are widely shared by cognitive psychologists. As Daniel Gilbert of Harvard University says: “A psychologist could barely dream up a better scenario for paralysis.”

Thay said, I keep my emisisons low, vote green, but plan for the worst while hoping for the best.

SUVs made up 20% of global emissions growth and 55% of car sales globally in 2023 (slrpnk.net)

This is just insane. Not only are cars themself mostly unnecessary, if the right infrastructure is provided, but SUVs also use more resources to run and be produced then small cars, without any advantage over them. So an obvious waste, which could easily be cut to reduce emissions....

Then he’d be Biden 2.0 and what’s the fucking point?

That has pretty much been the case for decades. Labour haven’t been *left" since Gough Whitlam was PM.

Israel is just fighting a war now, and they did a lot to avoid it.

Imagine punching somone in the face for decades, they strike back and you bawl abiut them starting it.

It’s like a domestic violence sufferer finally striking back after years of abuse.

I have never seen something awful, aside from.perhaps a Trump speech.

Bearing witness to human atrocity is a duty IMO. If thats what you mean?

Well, as an Australian I’d hope they’d not come here either, happy to have refugees and help then out as much as possible but not Americans.

As to brain drain, you come from a country that’s destroying the planet, acts like a spoiled child when it doesn’t get it’s way, (look at the reaction to the ICC arrest warrants for Israel) you’ve created a monster that has little to admire, the “brains” that created all that will hopefully stay there.

This is a country that has threatened to invade the Hague if any US person or allly is indicted by the ICC for example. Churlish doesn’t even begin to describe it, stay there.

Only in the same way that Coke and Pepsi are differnt

As Orwell pointed out way back then, they’re both sides of the neo liberal coin.

If you want Tory vote Tory or Labour, if you want chnage Vote Green.

Nothing chnages if voters don’t

Well yes but Vote Green to at least try and move the political dial on this and hope the completly and utterly fucked can be dialed back in time to just fucked.

We’re decades behind on this because of the intragience of voters reelecting the same sorts of polticans. I am not sure we have time to come back from the brink but one things for sure, neither the ALP nor the LNP are at all interested in anything but pushing us over the edge
