    I need F to understand these images.

    I think the 1% get it, they simply don’t care. It’s too hard, so, they’ll drink up as much money as they can from the rest of us to invest in bunkers from which they will watch the rest of the world burn.

      The way that Capitalism is set up, is that if you care about anything long-term whatsoever - even long-term profits - you’ll still be put out of business by the psychopath who is laser-focused on the next quarterly earnings announcement.

      A lot of species extinctions happened because natural selection took them down a blind alley and left them there to get pulped.

      I always wonder how long they think they will survive after they make it through the apocalypse in their bunkers.

        I’ve experienced it. At that heat, the wind isn’t a relief. It’s like the burst of heat from opening your oven. True misery.
