What absolute societal despair does to a mfer. I agree 100%. The choice is now this uncomfortable, unsustainable reality vs a completely unknown. Odds don't look too good.

I’m definitely coming off as a fatalist and alarmist but I firmly believe there is a path forward that includes all of us. Just the cost will be severe and unexpected, I hope we’re ready. And while my natural inclination is that of least resistance and less pain, I hope it is achievable within our generations. Let us bear the brunt of braving a new world that our children and their children’s children know better lives than we do.
