Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

The planet will still be more or less habitable. But those countries that insist on being capitalist (losers) are going to struggle to maintain many things that are taken for granted as weather gets more extreme. More: heatwaves, snow, storms, hail, floods, etc, at 'novel' times of year.

On top of already-crumbling infrastructure that will be left to rot for another 27 years? While all those juicy 'cheap' resources needed to rebuild things dry up because the global south finally turns off the extraction pipeline?

The good news is that everyone else will join us in agreeing that the capitalist ruling class are a laughing stock and out of their depth. Tbh, I'm an optimist and I don't think the working class will let the capitalists continue for that long. But I've been wrong before, especially when I go off hope rather than analysis.
