It’s true that even the worst case IPCC projections are woefully optimistic. They almost completely fail to account for impacts beyond emissions or feedback loops or loss of keystone species, etc.
The claim was that the planet would be uninhabitable not merely that catastrophes would happen. The person you replied to is entirely correct.
OP literally claimed that climate change would make the planet uninhabitable for humans, which is blatantly false. The person you are responding to is entirely correct, and now you sound like the smug one.
It would take nuclear war to require the rich to hide in bunkers. Climate change alone will not make the planet uninhabitable for humans. Of course, climate change is not the only factor contributing to the impending global ecological collapse, but even in a worst case collapse scenario, humans will survive. Life will be extremely unpleasant for most of us, but the billionaires would be just fine. That is, if we allow them to continue existing after their system of capitalism destroys everything. Hopefully it doesn’t take total collapse for us to gain class consciousness and achieve socialism though.

What if my senators and representatives are milquetoast corporate dems? Seriously though, there’s only a handful of Dem politicians who don’t take AIPAC money. I don’t think we’re going to get progressive leadership any time soon.

But it’s his turn.
The entire point of bourgeois democracy is to give workers the illusion of freedom so that the capitalists can continue extracting wealth.
Unfortunately reality is pretty doomy.
Protests aren’t enough, we need to unionize, organize tenant unions, create revolutionary cadres and do socialism. It’s the only way to stop the oligarchs from maintaining their ownership of us.
He actually paid money for this ~4-5 foot long model of his oversized truck and put it on the stump of an ancient redwood tree. Doesn’t get more car-brained than this.
Sorry for the potato quality, we were driving by and didn’t want to stop and let him think we were admiring it.
No tolerance for Nazis, or people who vote for Nazis. No tolerance for MAGA, or people who vote for MAGA.
