It’s not just Italy. It’s literally every country. Society is circling the drain and it’s all design.
Our billionaires and politics all want what is coming. They aren’t on your side and don’t represent you.
I feel like everyone knows we're all together on a sinking ship and the people of the upper levels are using the corpses of the already-drowned to stay afloat themselves. And the more drown, the easier they can stay afloat.
But... It doesn't change the fact the entire ship is still sinking and even they will eventually drown. Just a little later than anyone else.
I've started thinking everything I have been taught is a lie, our society isn't sustainable and we're going back to caves. This doesn't prevent me from continuing my work, but I just don't take it for granted and I don't expect to be able to earn anything durable from it. I'll function until I can, when climate change kills me or I grow too old, I'll die and that's it.
