Following the capitalists down their road of burning the world for short term private profit, laughing about rebranding the damage they do as "externalities," is also the end, and if we want the truest of ends for our species with no survivors, save a few self burying sociopaths in bunkers watching the last flickers burn out, then we're doing exactly what we need to be doing and we need only watch them do it.
There is no hope in maintaining the current course. None. We have the technologies to destroy the human habitability of our only world, the short term private profit motive to use them with reckless abandon, and no government or regulator they can't buy standing in their way.
The practicing sociopaths have all the keys. What is the defining characteristic of a sociopath? "Benefitting myself will hurt other people? Pfffff 💵😂🖕"
