At this point, I'm much more worried about shorter-term effects as this reality becomes more tangible for folks. We already have spikes in heat-related deaths, people dying in their homes. The despair... No, that's the wrong word, nihilism? from young generations is devastatingly sad to me, not to mention alarming. The political powers in the US have orchestrated the fear and hate just enough to keep the people at each other's throats, always just out of reach of true class consciousness. These days, I can't really be motivated to play the games anymore either. If no one else cares, in meaningful, impactful ways, why should I?
