    So, do we agree that climate policy has been mixed-bag both in “The West” and China? (Everybody is touting their green tech while still building new fossil fuel extraction and plants)

    Even if you were sure a tankie government would deliver better on climate change, what are the odds that “the revolution” leads to a full fascist government instead?

    Surely the Right outguns us 10 to 1?

      India has said they won’t stop developing until they have the same standard of living as the west. I’m willing to live under fascism if my kids can survive on this planet. That’s not even a difficult choice.

        Yeah, the international politics of climate are absolute shit. I think we have to survive and resist this worldwide lurch rightwards before that will change.
