breadandcircuses , 2 months ago (edited 2 months ago) Remember that this is the result of a choice — a choice that has been made for us. It doesn’t have to be this way. Did any of us consent to this? Are we consenting to it now? We can’t opt out. But can we opt in, and force a different choice?

Ceronis , 2 months ago @breadandcircuses "Ecosystems collapsing is terrible for the GDP!" Can I drink or eat GDP? Because I find it absolutely fucking insulting that I'm expected to care about money when talking about ECOSYSTEMS COLLAPSING. "There's nothing to eat or drink for hundreds of miles." "Okay, but how is our GDP?" !?!?!?

breadandcircuses OP , 2 months ago @gharbeia You mean because ecosystems cross borders? I agree with that, although individual countries sometimes do have different approaches which can affect ecosystems for better or for worse.
