Who would win?
2700 soft nerds with at least one billion small pieces of paper each
VS
300 million chimps with access to the internet and Mountain Dew™
What I didn’t see coming was mountain dew becoming the drink of the ppl
You gotta Do the Dew before you do the deed.
I’m all jacked up on mountain dew
3 squares a day and lots of admiration vs unlimited access to distraction-ary cat pics
Some prisons let you have a kitty
I did electrical work at a state prison in Nebraska a couple times. Most of the inmates had tablets with semi restricted internet access. So they still get the cat pics
Lol, like anyone here is going to do anything other than protect their own comforts
And as always, GenX just forgotten.
Not forgotten, too many of you guys are sellouts. They’ll die in the climate wars so they’re covered.
Please refer to me as Oregon Trail generation.

Path to the right is not mutually exclusive from the left.
This is the way
I say we embrace the French culture and take up guillotines.
Who’s to say you can’t get conscripted out of prison to die in the climate wars?
Surrender and/or nade the commissar tent?
Russia already is doing this!
They’re so ahead of the times!
No, don’t throw the younger generations under the bus to clean up our messes.
If nothing else we are ride or die with them.
Unfortunately you won’t die with us, you’ll die much sooner, not choking on a lack of oxygen or dying of dehydration.
We need more elders like those in Japan who volunteered to clean up nuclear waste because they wouldn’t have to live with the long-term side effects of being exposed to radiation.
As elders, y’all wouldn’t have to live as long in jail ¯\(ツ)/¯
I mean. Heck, if you have a terminal illness I don’t see the downsides really.
Just get a vasectomy so your children won’t be wage slaves. EZ
jail is not fun. no computer.
Sneak one in in your butt
By 2028 this may be possible idk.
Depends on the country
Which country has both abusive crony-capitalist billionaire CEOs and fun jail?
Even better, a European CEO, where prisons are nice and cozy.
Now I just need to figure out which crimes would get me life in Norway without hurting anyone. Maybe that’s not a bad backup retirement plan to be honest…
For me American prison sounds a lot worse than whatever comes from climate change, so personally I’d pick that.
Plus the two aren’t mutually exclusive. You could just as easily go to prison and then just be abandoned there once the climate becomes uninhabitable anyway. Wouldn’t be the first time:
Back in 2005, when Katrina hit New Orleans, prison guards abandoned prisoners in locked cells as the floodwaters rose chest-high. Several thousand of those inmates were eventually rescued, but then miserably housed on a broken piece of interstate, directly exposed to the Southern summer sun.
For now. Give it a few decades when the effects of climate change start forcing people out of their homes, cause widespread crop failure, kill thousands with heatwaves and storms, etc.
If you’re choice is between
- losing your home, starving to death, or in some way dying in the streets
Or
- losing your home, starving to death, or in some way dying in the streets after holding those responsible to account a la the adjuster
More and more people will choose option 2.
I mean even thinking that that’d be the actual situation for me where I live in few decades vs. spending those few decades and rest of my life in American prison, it’s going to be a very easy decision for me
I mean, come on. Uncertain future some decades ago vs the certainty that I’m rotting in an American prison for the rest of my life starting now. Easiest decision of my life
It very well could be the rest of your life in both cases.
Yes and that still gives me some decades before something might happen vs spending those decades and the rest of my life in American prison. I mean have you really considered the options here lol
I think you’ve misunderstood. I’m talking about the choice that people make when these effects start happening, not a choice now. Of course most people aren’t opting to get violent yet, there backs aren’t yet against the wall.
In that case I wouldn’t worry about either choice if it’s decades away. I’d wait and see how bad it gets before making the decision.
Sure. But my whole point is that we’re headed in that direction.
You’re more likely to die in a heat wave in prison right now.
IDK maybe that’s more reason to fight, just to the death.
For now that’s the case. But if there ever becomes a time when life outside of prison means starving to death, dying in a heat wave or storm, it won’t matter.
People still have things to lose. But people are losing things.
When you take away people’s reason to live, their time, their hobbies, their ability to raise a family, their loved ones, you make those people very desperate…
…you might not be glad that you did.
glares in Nick Fury
very apt quote.
“The most dangerous man is the man with nothing to lose”
on the plus side, i now know that if a climate disaster doesn’t do me in, the french revolution 2 electric boogaloo will

This would be me if I took the three squares with free housing and healthcare route.
I bet that’s why poisoning was so big before guns. Like who has the time to learn archery.
