Life is super cushy for a lot of folks, and it's hard to rebel against something that is this undifficult

John Galbriath wrote a book on this, worth a read IMO

that said the time to rebel is now because somewhere around 2030-2035 ,it will be too late and too many tipping points will have been crossed


which is why we won't solve this, It's contra to how humans behave.
