    It’s too late imho. I feel kind of hopeless about it, been voting for 30 years to no avail.

      It is too late. Currently I am arguing about voting in politics, knowing that it doesn’t matter. But if you go full doomer you’re defeatist or “part of the problem.” They have no idea what’s coming. Heck, even I don’t and I’ve been looking at this stuff for years. It’s good to know other people get it. Don’t be hopeless though, we have the time we have. Enjoy it as best you can. I know it’s hard. I’ve been watching Kurtis Conner on YouTube for laughs, it helps. He rocks the mullet. I struggled with collapse for years. I still do from time to time. But once you accept it, you start to see how beautiful the world actually is.

        Guys, please take some time to read and reflect this a bit, you dont have to, but it would be cool. So, imo, it isnt too late. Yes, everything is pretty fucked up, got you. But, try to avoid the doomish news and look for the things that are happening at the same time. For example, renawble energies are soaring World-wide and thats fucking amazing! Im trying to say that theres a lot of positive developments aswell. Try to look for those changes near you, i hope there are some. Time is becomming more of an issue, its up to you to lean back and enjoy the beauty thats left, i wont judge you since i know it can be frightening and exhausting to think about the whole Situation while making ends meet. But you said you still see beauty, i hope you chose to defend it. Because, this might be the best/last (perspective) time to do so. There are lots of ways to this. Education, connecting, whatever. Try not to be distracted, divided, we know the cause, have the data. Those in charge led to this and priorities arent switching fast enough for the best of us. And a lot of people are feeling like you and me. societal change has always been a story of anger, unrest and connection. I see some parts of history repeating, but i dont see why we should forget the parts that helped human develop.

        Tldr, together ape strong :o
