    Been thinking about that tweet that goes, “Climate change will manifest as a series of disasters viewed through phones with footage that gets closer and closer to where you live until you’re the one filming it”.

    Metaphorically, this is true of capitalism and its contradictions, not just climate change. Some are more insulated than others for now, but that won’t always be the case.

    I don’t mean it in a scary doomer way either, it’s just like… living through decline is not going to be pretty, already isn’t. And it’s not going to turn around unless the regular people oust the imperialists and the capitalists from power.
