Been saying all along. Climate change is only a population problem from the perspective of the super rich exploiters. When the gov gives up on climate change due to the rich investing in politics, you can count on them having a plan and solution that does not involve the rest of us.

even killing the poorest 50% of people on earth would almost nothing to prevent the climate collapse because they have such a miniscule carbon footprint, the richest 1% however..

It's nice global warming never happened.

It did but fortunately nuclear winter balanced it out.

We can just push earth further out in orbit...

Yeah it's pretty clear the wealthy exploiters just decided about 4 billion of us were expendable about 15 years ago... if not longer ago than that.

Since the dawn of humanity, we found ways to make people disposable

You're giving them far too much credit. While these people like to think of themselves as super-geniuses, they can't think any farther than the tips of their noses. Their plan is to hole up on their private islands when shit hits the fan. They can't imagine that they'll be the first to be eaten when food runs low.

Unless they have a plan on how they will continue to extract wealth after the working class is gone, then they are short sighted and will be food for the ultra rich who plan on exploiting them.

Low low prices on fresh uranium and cesium, land value is dropping, BUY THAT DIP! Clean water is going at an all time high invest yesterday.

What being killed by a rocket taught be about b2b sales...

I hate to break it to everyone but we are already in world war 3. It's just that we need way less troops to fight it and you will be shocked to find out who the axis are this time around.

[-] Pilferjinx@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

This time period could definitely be prelude to ww3. The collective world isn't at war just yet.

TIL ~~there isn't a stock market set of emojis. This is supposed to mean "stock market go down"~~ that ๐Ÿ“ˆ๐Ÿ“‰ are specifically "chart" emojis and not aliased to literally anything else for some reason.

[-] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

๐Ÿ“‰ ๐Ÿ“ˆ

These are just generic graph emojis, but it can be argued the stock market graph is a... generic graph.

[-] LodeMike@lemmy.today 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

What in the frick are those called because "stock", "market", "graph", nor "chart" bring them up.

Edit: maybe it was something other than graph that I searched.

[-] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I dunno but they're in the "object" section of my emoji picker.

There's also a bar graph in there ๐Ÿ“Š

Good. They haven't infiltrated quite everything yet.

"What do you poors need to see this for anyways?"

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

So, an economic magazine writes about how war would affect the economy, and you people are outraged?

[-] Lemminary@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Outrage? More like a scornful eye roll.

[-] Noerknhar@feddit.org 2 points 3 weeks ago

Believe it or not, this will have a massive impact on decision making, i.e. on whether we'll have WW3 or not.
