Again, so glad to hear I'm not the only one to come to this conclusion.
"For Burke, the real enemy was predatory capitalism. It was the economic system that devalued humans and elevated machines. It was the resulting culture that drove fear and alienation over community."

on anger. She doesn't mention the legacy of patriarchal Christian teaching for those of us who grew up 'in the church', but, as usual, she's right on the money.
"Despite all these documented examples of highly successful entrepreneurs flourishing on anger, the influencer class pushes an entirely different playbook on everyone else. They tell us to smile all the time. They tell us that anger, outrage, sarcasm, and criticism don't get you anywhere."

Simple, straightforward, to the point. Jessica Wildfire is the real deal.

Yikes. A well written as well as depressing post. Makes me more thankful for my (comparatively better paid) K-12 teaching job.

Yes, many billionaires have invited Doom to planet Earth, but that does not mean the rest of us have to be willing servants to their undesirable house guest.

We can make it leave ...

It doesn't have to be like this.

We don't have to turn into rhinos. We could ditch this normal for something else. All we have to do is stop pretending.

It would be easy.

We have the knowledge and tools to survive. We could build tiny houses for everyone. We could build root cellars. We could build earth tubes. We could leave these shitty jobs and ugly McMansions in the desert. We could localize our supply chains. We could let go of beef. We could build rain catchment systems. We could get around on carts and bicycles.

We could ration energy and electricity.

We could be happy.

We're not miserable because of viruses or heat indexes. We're miserable because this system forces us to participate in our own destruction. We're miserable because we know deep down that we're in trouble, that we have to adapt, but we're still expected to sling lattes for assholes, all the way up until the moment a wildfire or a flood engulfs our neighborhood.

We're miserable because we're forced to watch the world burn on our phones, and then we're accused of doomscrolling.

Isn't that something?
