To me it is like giving crack to a crack feind. Takes care of the problem short term but still stuck in the same spot. Basically the US is an oil fiend and will do anything and I mean anything to get our hands on it. For the long term prupose I have no idea …do you?

    Get rid of Conservatives. That’s your first step. Their regressive nature makes moving past fossil fuels next to impossible.

      Imo the two party system basically always devolves into two pro-authoritarian parties, sponsored by capital owners.

      like I’d say the “democrats” are just a GOP-light version in terms of representing and realizing progressive topics. Even in parliament systems I feel like this is an issue, greens become more and more conservative in some countries, and esp a certain middle-left party, I have in mind, is basically just doing what the conservatives want with no own agenda anymore… so in 2 party systems this overton-window shift seems even easier to establish idk
