cops guarding dumpsters full of expiring food, power companies redirecting grid energy to rich neighborhoods, hotels price-gouging when people are most desperate. this is a little taste of what climate change will look like under capitalism regardless of who is in office.

honestly this is on the B*den admin for pushing vaccines as the end-all-be-all & also telling vaxxed ppl they don't need to mask. they've intentionally shifted the conversation towards personal responsibility as to avoid having to give out stimulus checks, rent relief, PUA, etc

clear cutting a vitally important forest that mitigates drastic weather events + supports an array of plant + animal wildlife should be considered domestic terrorism. not to mention it's an extremely shortsighted move as we need more trees + more stored carbon, not more police.

one of the worst things colonization took from us & the natural world is the loss of plant varieties. for example, in India prior to the green revolution in the 1970s, there were 110,000 landrace varieties of rice. post-revolution, 90% of rice varieties were lost.
