Separation of church and state.

Why do you need hope ? Hope means you have no idea and no solution but have hope.

Nature is a wonderful curative.

You know you will die no matter what happens, we all do, just enjoy life until you die, helping others is a wonderful purpose, in doing that you may find some peace?

Or maybe you need a fecal tranpslant (serious, see the link)

I use Mint (LMDE) on my laptop amd desktop. Dual booting is an issie if you use Windows and have the installs on the same drive. I went Mint only. (18onths now)

No issies with the isntall, there will be some apps you can’t use, I ditched them amd changed to other apps but thats an issue with shitty vendors not with Linux itself

I use the command line very occasionally, 95% of everything can be done with the GUI

Mint’s a good a place as any to start. Has a good support forum if you have hiccups. Understand this is new for you, so you’ll need some effort.

Well, a planned implosion would be a good thing.

This is not that though.

Why’s he so worried? The system is absolute shit and he’s worried about change? Collapse is for the greater good.

Sounds more like he’s worried about losing his job.then anything else, i quit work when I was 35 and am now 59.

We need the entire economic system to collapse, or will collapse the biosphere and be completely fcuked. We can’t keep eating the future.

Societal downfalls loom large in history and popular culture but, for the 99 per cent, collapse often had its upsides

Bevase were car beained assholes who keep voting for the orthodoxy.

Always interesting to hear from him but I do take issue with his stance that we won’t transition becase we can’t have society as is because renewables can’t replace fossil fields, as though there is no altertive but the shit show we have…

We could redesign a low energy use society that respects the laws of nature and lives within the biospheres limits. Eg having the top 10% emit like the averge European cuts emissions by 32%, not enough but a great start.

We won’t though, so the issue comes down to … collapse is inevitable?

While I dont disagree with you, this aeticle is about internal migration though. Where do you accomodate 15,000 evacuees from a fire etc.
