Fossil fuel companies are aggressively suppressing anything that gets in their way, and within a generation or two, human lives begin to take a greater and greater toll, until the Earth orbits a third of the way from the sun. It becomes nothing more than a ball of fire. Until we realize that peaceful protests are completely ignored and economic protests are impossible under the current system, so violence against those who lead us to such destruction is justified in self-defense. How long will it take?
“These companies don't care about you or your children or grandchildren. They have no qualms about burning down the planet for money, so why do we have to do anything to survive?” Will you have no qualms about burning them down?'' Added quote from Mangione.
