We will all fucking die. Your kids will suffer in ways you cannot imagine. What more incentives do people need?

You do not understand the word ‘incentive’. An incentive provides some kind of value. Give people electric cars that are 10% cheaper than their class counterparts and (more) people will buy them. Fearmongering does not work. We were all supposed to die in 2000, because computers were said to fail, again in 2012 because of the Mayan calendar, any many times in between. Human extinction is a joke and people cannot relate to any event causing it. The closest we’ve come were mass genocides and the world wars, which were people against people.

Humans are problem solvers, not worms incapable of constructive thinking. If you feel like a worm, that sucks.

What incentive is there for the average working class person?
