Ha. 'Taking action' is a total joke at this point.
I literally have doctors and technicians in the family, yet I can't even talk about climate change and the existential dread it fills me with because its 'hysterical' worrymongering.
...They watch Fox News in the morning.
They recycle! They're nature likers!
Honestly, I don't get what it is with older folks and information hygiene. Am I going to turn into this? They're intelligent people, and I swear they weren't always like this. I just don't get it.
Point being, these activists are shouting into a void that will change no minds. A while ago I would've posited 'the climate solution is burning Facebook/Fox to the ground,' but honestly I don't know what can be done now. We're too far gone.
I think it is largely that older people have seen humanity hurtling towards Doom their entire lives. Continuous existential dread is very stressful. Putting your head in the sand is profoundly comforting. There are no known viable solutions, and the not even half measures are going to take generations. Shifting their outrage to small social issues is a lot more pleasurable.
