This cartoon from “Bloper” presents humankind’s response to climate change thus far.

Virtually every educated and intelligent person on Earth, including our scientists and our political leaders, understands that the temperature of the Earth’s atmosphere and oceans is rising, and that we have very little time to avert the catastrophe that comes along with it.

We are, however, also living with a small number of extremely wealthy and powerful people whose greed defies description, who are quite happy to inflict untold misery upon all our planet’s life forms if ignoring climate change enriches them even further.

The Republicans seem to have coalesced around the anti-communism/socialism narrative, setting aside all other messaging re: the economy, affordable groceries and gasoline, jobs, allowing Iran to build a nuclear weapon, etc.

We’ll have to wait and see how this plays out.

In a nation that has, to a large degree, lost its ability to think, it’s possible that voters, especially the most unintelligent among them, can be convinced that the Democrats are leading the United States in the direction of China, North Korea, or the former Soviet Union.
