“Too much focus on solutions can separate us from the gravity” what the fuck. All the focus on doom has people saying it’s too late to try. Focusing on the solutions is the only thing getting shit done at all

I think the idea is that probably around 4.5 it becomes un airable on national tv

Okay well I think your just wrong. Hell, even the law thinks your wrong. Using art as reference can be dangerous if your work is not meaningfully different and you pass it off as your own.

It was pretty clearly AI. The braids and tail make no sense

We do have a better idea, it’s called communism as imagined in the solarpunk movement

Well I think that’s a very limiting way to have a conversation. You are now placing an expectation on everyone to spend time to make their posts about topic A longer so it can include topic B. That makes it less likely people will engage because post length is a big factor in attention.

Secondly, many of the people excited by crypto, and nearly everybody engaging in solarpunk discourse, recognize the problems with the current system. So OP addressing people who have been led into thinking crypto will solve XYZ is a good thing. Those people know we need change, they just got excited about the wrong change, OP trying to steer them in the right direction is a good thing.

You sure are going to bat for it as though it were

Your last sentence

Sounds like you want a system that is distinct but similar to what we have. But that’s extremely un-solarpunk. Solar Punk is about imagining a better world that doesn’t rely on bad systems anymore. Crypto is still a tool of the capitalist system at the end of the day, and that makes it the enemy.
