10. The whole world is in trouble & the GOP is to blame. Almost entirely to blame, right now.

The GOP could completely change the direction on the lack of action on the climate crisis but they deny and obstruct. The only explanation I can think of, that the rich keep voting for them, is that the 1% think they are insulated against climate change. And maybe they are. Maybe Antarctica and the northern regions will become enclaves for the rich, while the rest of us die in floods and drought. Then they can reclaim what habitable land is left when the eaters are gone.

It will be interesting to see what northern state MAGAs do when the migrants in their communities are no longer brown people who speak a foreign language or have a different religion, but fellow white, Christian Americans from southern states that aren't habitable year round. Or out of water. People think that can't happen even as it's happening.

It's not looking good for the human race. We may survive, but we are getting knocked down a few pegs. Maybe a lot of pegs.
