We do need drastic change. Right now your choices are genocide and climate apocalypse VS genocide and climate apocalypse. The people didn't get a choice.

So what system do we put in place that solves these issuea?

You want to drastically change the system, but thinking about what that means is not part of it? Lol holy shit.

Yeah man. Humanity is disgusting. Personally I don't care for them, but I'm sure you can agree a socialist utopia would be great for human lovers.

70% of all species have been driven to extinction in the 250,000 years we've existed. How many of them megafauna before we even invented language?

Humans drive 150 different species extinct a day, and we're just gearing up for the great climate collapse.

Put aside your human exceptionalism. If we found an organism that obliterates the natural world at such a pace, we'd do everything in our power to eradicate it.

Hopefully we delete ourselves before we spread to other planets.

I've made no such claim. I've only pointed out that if you look around and everyone sucks, you're revealing more about yourself than you are accurately describing humanity. In your case, it's very obvious even without that.

The people in my life are wonderful. Humanity is a disease.

Have a nice day.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
