It’s obvious that a second Trump administration will be worse in almost every conceivable way from what a Harris administration might have been.

But let's not fool ourselves into believing that a Harris victory would have been *good* for our climate and environment. We've been going in the wrong direction for at least 20 years under Presidents from both parties — and there's no reason to think that Kamala Harris would have charted a different course.

When it comes to our climate and environment, we can't blame either the Democrats or the Republicans. We have to blame both. We have to blame capitalism.

You may not agree with everything in the essay linked below, but I expect it will make you think. Sarah Miller (@sarahmiller_22747) presents some “hard truths” about where we are now, how we got here, and what the future might bring…
_______________________________________

For liberal America, this election season has not been fun. It has not been honest. It did not turn out well. And now that it’s over, the time has arrived for a dose of brutal honesty. Forget about Donald Trump’s real and perceived lies. We have lied to ourselves for too long.

Our country and our world are in a dire state. That state has everything to do with the climate crisis, species extinction (possibly including our own), wars with no end in sight, dysfunctional geopolitics and domestic politics, and worst of all, irrational devotion to economic growth that is literally killing us.

The energy transition demanded by the climate crisis is an area where facing up to hard truths is particularly vital. It is also the area of our misguided American experience of the last half century that I know most about. A long career of writing about the energy industry tells me that recovery from our binge of self-deception must start with admitting:

1. Trump’s presidency will not bring the great change for the worse in US energy policy that establishment environmentalists claim it will. Not, tragically, because Trump is better than they say, but because the Biden/Harris administration was much, much worse than hoped.

2. The US is not a leader in positive climate action. It has not been under Biden, and it will not be for the foreseeable future. On the contrary, both political parties seem determined — in practice, if not in words — to lead a reactionary defense of fossil fuels.

3. Climate breakdown is much more advanced than widely admitted. There’s no time left for a carefully designed transition, or even a thought-out, gradually implemented shift away from the devastating paradigm of economic growth. An economic collapse is the only evident path to slower climate destabilization.

There's a lot more in the full essay, including some suggestions of books to read, along with action steps for those of us who are ready to start off in a new direction.

Graphic from the Washington Post, which shows that "America's crude oil output has increased under Democratic and Republican administrations." A bar graph charts the increase in US crude oil production in millions of barrels per day from 2005 through 2023. After staying roughly level through about 2012, oil production has since then steadily grown.


Far-right Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel #Smotrich announced yesterday that 2025 would be the year to fully annex the West Bank and eliminate “the danger” of a Palestinian state, stressing that #Trump's victory in the U.S. election will be an asset to achieve this goal.


“The only way to remove the danger of a Palestinian terror state from the agenda is to apply Israeli sovereignty to Jewish settlement in the entire Judea and Samaria,” he added.

Last month, Smotrich called for the full annexation of the occupied West Bank and the Gaza Strip asserting the need to establish illegal Israeli settlements in the heart of Palestinian territories and the expulsion of Palestinians seeking statehood.

In 2001, I swore to defend the Constitution and the freedom of The People of the United States. 9/11 happened a month after I started basic training, and in 2003 I spent 5 months in the middle east doing my duty.

22 years later, The People thanked the service of veterans like me by voting in a draft dodging insurrectionist who has threatened to suspend the Constitution and who just loves to cozy up with our enemies.

You know what? You can keep your thanks.

Specially Americans, Britts and Germans funding and arming the genocidal regime of Netanyahu.

The role of the #Gaza genocide in Kamala #Harris’s loss

The cause of #KamalaHarris’ disastrous failure in the 2024 presidential election will forever be debated, but there are good reasons to believe the Israeli genocide in Gaza played a significant role.

"Die schweren Kampfhandlungen müssen endlich eingestellt und ernsthaft an einem #Waffenstillstand gearbeitet werden. Denn ohne Waffenstillstand wird das Sterben nicht aufhören, wird das Leid kein Ende nehmen – das Leid der nach wie vor über 100 Geiseln und ihrer Familien. Und ebenso das Leid der Familien in #Gaza."

Across the world its becoming clear that both inflation itself & wages that have not kept up with price rises are key issues for voters & are causing major problems for incumbent Govt.s

Some of this pressure is being deflected into blame politics & the use of identity as a political weapon of division.... but, of course, ironically the very appeal to identity, reveals the continuing importance to voters of their material standard of living.

As such a failure of 'identity politics'?

As I thought, they do not want young educated users of social media, that will challenge the two major political parties.

Going forward, who will be more in danger of losing their minds?

The reporters treating Trump as if he is not the "eating the cats/eating the dogs" convicted criminal that will likely burn the remaining remnants of democracy to the ground because they don't want to lose their jobs or get thrown in jail...

...or the people at home watching them do it night after night as if this is all normal?

#politics #journalism


Going forward, I'm tuning out journalists that talk about North American politics without talking about race, religion, and the state of our information spaces.

Economic anxiety ain't it.

#politics #journalism #democracy


Trmp may/probably will cause U.S. allies to become stronger militarily & economically through economic alliances outside the U.S., so ironically he will weaken U.S. overall influence on the world stage
That's if he's successful

Barbarian IDF in action : investigation by the Hebrew newspaper #Haaretz: The occupation army refuses to protect aid trucks coming to the #Gaza Strip, and bombs the #Palestinian police, when they advanced to protect the aid from looting


Israel is maximizing their total control over aid entering Gaza to starve as many Palestinians as possible.

By preventing the local police to handle the food, they push desperate people to attack the food in poor depression to grab aa much as they can for their families and themselves.

Instead of letting local activists to take the food and distribute it to those in need, they are creating the modern version of the #HungerGame while the world stands by and watch the close to a million people in northern Gaza to fight each other in a desperate attempt to survive.

This is the entertainment for the evil monsters in Israel and the "civilized" world.
