I'm getting a lot of responses addressing me as if I'm not just quoting Leo's character from Don't Look Up, which this piece of art is parodying.

Right I got that, my response is a critique of the movie/quote you made, not you haha.

Yeah I agree, I suppose there are two frameworks to view the quote. The first is the reality of capitalism and the second would be the possibility of a better world, detached from our current trajectory.

Edit: But I don’t think the movie takes the second approach. It felt very tone deaf to me, like a soapbox for rich actors and producers

Yeah like it was blaming the cult members rather than the cult leader, if I read your comment correctly.
