I don't buy it anyway. Way back in 2003 you were writing a blog called 'A TIME FOR FEAR' and inventing Islamophobia. Your catchphrase is 'Doom' why would you choose 2019 of all years to suddenly stop being afraid. It don't add up.
At this stage, I almost feel like if you're not frightened, it's for one of three reasons: you're not paying attention, you're currently high on something pleasantly numbing or you're one of the people everyone else is frightened of.

Violent aggressive rap music used to cheer me up but now bartys convinced them all to go psychedelic and make baby noises.
My actual phrase was "the Desmond Morris of Doom" which was true enough in the 2003 days until I got on board with Paul Wolfowitz.
area's affected most by climate change lay in the global south, the periphery that is already being exploited and stolen of its wealth. there will still be plenty of land to live on in case of climate change i think. we're talking about 1-5% of the global population. they don't have any reason to be frightened i think.
Yeah, this is my take, basically. Rising sea levels? Fine, don't live in a low-lying coastal region. Ever-worsening heat waves? Summer home in Norway/Nova Scotia/halfway up a mountain somewhere. Spiraling cost of basic foods? Doesn't matter when you live on Kobe sirloin and caviar. Droughts everywhere? Who cares, if you drink San Pellegrino anyway. Societal breakdown and ramping violent crime? Gated communities, armed security etc.
there's still time to stave off the worst and for us to live in a depleted but non catastrophic future.
yeh this is why i sometimes drift away in negative thoughts. thinking fuck all these green political parties, don't care about extra bicycle lanes or drinking from plastic straws. policy all paid by the working class. if we go down, let's go down together, including and especially the rich.
The rich will still be fine long after the rest of us have frazzled or starved to death. By that time they'll probably be living in space colonies with robots and replicants to do all the work for them.
true, although most of those one-percenters make their fortunes by selling goods and services to the rest of us. once we've starved ourselves to death, their customer base disappears and fortunes crumble. robots don't buy stuff.
You know this thought has crept into my head from time to time over the past couple years: What if a landlocked bad actor in the East (China, Russia, N Korea if we have a falling out) dropped nukes on the blue ice in Greenland when it is exposed in the Summer? Wouldn't this trigger a cascading melt effect that would instantly submerge the eastern seaboard of the US and most of Western Europe? And isn't Greenland unrestricted airspace or at least unmonitored for nuclear subs and the like? You might not even need nukes, and it would hit so fast no one would know who was responsible.
I haven't watched a new Bond movie in many years but I'd watch the hell out of the next one if you wrote the screenplay based on this idea.
Slight flaw is that none of those countries is exactly landlocked. Russia might be more or less OK but most of China's population lives on the coast or in low-lying river valleys.
