    People aren’t ready to vote on the grounds of ecology either, I live in one of the largest democracies.just ask yourselves what are the grounds on which people in your country vote on?

    When was the last time voting caused systemic change? voting is made to sustain the system , it will never allow you to tear it apart. a Revolution will destroy the current system and replace it with a better one.

    Reform will not solve the climate change, but a radical change in our consumption model will, such a change is inevitable either through a Revolution or through collapse of our Eco-system. one of these options will have more suffering than other. that’s the reason to believe in revolution

      If people don’t vote with ecology in mind do you think they’re going to start a revolution for it?

        No, both of these things require educating the masses, point is that only one of them is effective for systemic change.

          Ronald Reagan was elected and managed to significantly impact the American economy (for the worse, it lead to a large increase in inequality). Why don’t you believe that the same can be done the other way?

            Neoliberal polices doesn’t challenge capitalism it extends it. Environmental policies directly challenges capitalism how is this comparable?
