It’s like we’re flying towards a brick wall, and corporations and republicans want to put their foot on the gas, because the faster we go the more money they make… until impact of course

Many of them are dominionists who actively want the world to end so Jesus will come back. These people will kill us all for their fairy tales.

Ironically, Christians are commanded in the bible to be good stewards of creation. Many apparently take that to mean destroyers of creation.

man reminds me of this guy in a big suv being interviewed and saying how god wants us to use all the oil before jesus comes back. thats why he put it there.

That’s true, but there are also many wealthy (aka greedy) people who figure, because they can afford to live anywhere, that the problems won’t affect them personally. Or, even if they recognize the problems will be inescapable, there’s the rush to just grab a little more before the everything comes unglued.

That's not so much a theory as much as it's an explicit strategy that isn't even being hidden. Look up the apocalypse plans from the tech bro billionaires. They don't care about trying to stop it, they're just trying to make as much money as possible so they'll be in a better position, and they don't care if they accelerate it while they do it.

I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

You might get your wish sooner rather than later. You just won't get to live on any other planets either because you won't have survived what we did to this one.

Wherever you end up going, take as many of those politicians as you can with you.

I'm leaving because of those politicians! Why would I want to take them with me? I guess I could drop them off at the Sun for you.

They're always going on about how great god is, drop 'em off in space where they can be closer to him.

Oh of fucking course they want to dismantle what few fucking climate policies we have in this country. God forbid the EPA says you can’t dump your shit water in natural mountain springs so we don’t contaminate our drinking water. How DARE we want to attempt to lessen the impact of climate change on our planet so that future generations just might not have to live in an unlivable world.
