Nah, we're not powerless, and we don't all have to collectively agree. We have so many technologies that have been developed over the past several decades that can help solve this problem. Change is constant, this kind of shit is just another bump in the road.

Because they'd rather live their life believing they couldn't change anything than believe they had a chance to change something and missed it.

Shit no dawg. We've had loads of chances to fix it, but one half of the political divide actually wants to end the world so they can get raptured and shit cuz they only believe lies. Most of the population is just people doing what they're supposed to and assuming others are doing the same. Apologies for not joining a radical cell and blowing shit up i guess... short of that, i mean, you can't even talk about killing the people who need killing in any public forum let alone make a plan for it, and actually doing it would require, you know, snipers and shit, so...

I mean, you're probably American. Y'all the ones with weapons out the wazoo. If that were useful, somebody would have paired up and done something about it by now. Obviously it's not, which is good news, cuz it means you can put all that gung-ho rhetoric away and join the rest of us, but i mean yeesh, that was a lot of sound and fury just to signify nothing, nawm sayin?
