We got some serious massive issues to solve on planet Earth yet instead of solving these we seem to be invested in creating even more unnecessary issues and making the current ones worse

It's almost as if the ones with the most resources only care about themselves

Imagine explaining this to aliens..

@stux They've probably seen it all before.

@bhasic I know right!

@stux Imagine explaining it to our grandchildren.

"Sure, we knew what most of the problems were, and we had some ideas how to solve them, but we wanted to worry about irrelevant bullshit and conspiracy theories instead.

"Sorry about the crop failures, antibiotic resistant infections, and years-long wildfires. We thought preventing those would be boring and mildly uncomfortable for the wealthiest few."

@jmax @stux
"Yes, we encountered the same problem with our ultra-rich."

"How did you solve it?"

"Executed them all, then made being worth more than a certain limit a capital crime. Our rich are now highly motivated to spread their wealth to less well-off people to avoid going over the limit."

@tknarr @stux "How did you solve it?"
"Ran."
