yeah, let’s keep things just the way they are and stop hoping that societal changes can be a motor for improvement
all I’m saying is there aren’t alternatives YET, but situations like this could create a positive change in mindset and eventually infrastructure as well. fine by me if you want to be a glass-half-empty kind of person
So when people can’t afford basic life necessities today so poor people starve and go homeless, but that pressure has some unrealized future benefit the current generation likely won’t live to see, that’s glass half-full for you?
I’m hopeful for better too, but I’m not going to be happy about human suffering.
Climate change is an extinction level event. You don’t think that is going to cause suffering? You’re clutching your pearls at the idea of trying to prevent extinction so you obviously don’t care about human suffering.
