does anyone know if its worth the potential disappointment to have hope for a better tomorrow

[godisafujoshi]

Yeah because if you have hope you can feel good until the bad happens. But if you don’t have hope you feel bad until the bad happens and then you feel worse

[elbiotipo]

why bother caring about the environment when 1. It’s so obviously a lost cause and 2. There’s definitely going to be a nuclear war?

And what are you doing about it Anon? Learn about ecological restoration or get out of my way.

[elbiotipo]

If you read ecology books printed in the 70s and 80s, they were absolutely convinced that whales and tigers would not survive the century. There's a whole plot in Star Trek about how whales are extinct actually. Here in Argentina, we were sure that yaguaretés would have gone extinct. It was thought that rainforests would be forever lost, because there was no way that such complex ecosystems would be restored.

Now, you can go to Península Valdés and find that the whale population there is growing year after year, people can see them from their windows. In Iberá, where yaguaretés were extinct for over 70 years, there's now a population of 35 and growing, after being reintroduced just five years ago. As for rainforests?

We've becoming very, very good on restoring them. Natural environments, when given space and time to heal, can return to that they were. And after all, all natural enviroments are managed by human societies. It is up to us to implement a good management, un buen gobierno.

I firmly believe our children and grandchildren will see a restoration of Earth like never before.

Millions of people are working on this. You can learn about it, perhaps even become one of them. Or be a pointless doomer in my ask box. Your choice.

if there are people who care, it's never a lost cause. at one point, kākāpō, a nocturnal flightless parrot species from aotearoa, were thought to be entirely extinct for decades. until 1977, where booming calls from males were heard on the small island of whenua hou. now, thanks to people who care so much they dedicated their lives to caring, kākāpō numbers are close to 300. despite the setbacks. despite the small gene pool causing infertility and health problems. people cared so fucking much that they survived. this is one of COUNTLESS, countless similar stories. I'm studying ecology so that I can go into conservation and all around me, every day, I see people who care enough to put years of their lives into learning about and solving environmental problems. I don't know man. hope isn't just some nebulous thing. it's tangible if you do something with it.

one of my favorite twitter accounts that is defunct now is it was this account called like Crazy Optical Illusions or something and they would just post popular optical illusions but edit them so they werent optical illusions anymore and they would just pretend and people would be very confused / angry in the comments

The National guard is being deployed to Los Angeles to support ICE.

Trump border czar says National Guard will head to LA to fight anti-ICE protests

Tense confrontations between police and demonstrators in L.A. continued for a second day on Saturday, in response to operations by Immigrati

Mask up. Black bloc. White citizens to the front.

ICE and the LAPD have been firing rubber bullets directly at protesters and utilizing weapons like tear gas.

[cannabiscomrade]

The military has arrived in LA.

[cannabiscomrade]

Water and saline are the only thing that go in eyes.

Flush temperature burns for at LEAST 15 minutes. Brush off dried chemicals from chemical burns because water may activate the chemical.

Traffic cones over a canister can reduce tear gas range.

Wear ear protection if available. LRADs are no joke and will make you go deaf. Over the ear is best.

Write your “in case of emergency” in permanent marker on your body. Also any bail fund/pro bono lawyer.

You can and will be identified if you do not cover your face and any identifiable markings/hair color. KN95 plus a bandana or other cloth over the mask.

Medics will be primary targets. Protect them.

Live updates: Trump deploys National Guard to LA in response to immigration clashes | CNN Politics

President Donald Trump signed a presidential memorandum deploying 2,000 National Guardsmen to Los Angeles to disperse protests that began in

There are reportedly 300 troops on the ground in LA as of this morning. I would assume the number to be higher than what’s reported. Trump signed a memorandum to deploy 2000 troops. The border czar is threatening to arrest elected California officials if they “impede ICE”.

Compton was attacked by ICE agents last night and the community showed up.

The Bail Project is a general reputable bail fund out of Los Angeles that helps people around the country.

The National Bail Fund Network is similar and regularly works with both protesters and immigrants.

If you have any individual or more local bail funds, please comment them so I can check and boost.

btw these are "rubber bullets"

they are also called "baton rounds" and have been known to cause serious injury and even death

and these are "bean bags"

that's a shotgun shell. It is fired from a shotgun. The cloth is kevlar. Inside the kevlar are... the same lead pellets that a normal shotgun uses. The kevlar sack prevents spread and penetration. The beanbag round has less gunpowder than a standard shotgun round, but still sends this projectile forward at about 180 miles per hour.

They love to say "rubber bullets" and "beanbags" because they sound harmless, but they are not harmless at all. Beanbag rounds like this have caused injury, permanent disability, and death.

Just so you know what's happening when they report "rubber bullets" and "beanbags"

The democratic party would rather try and whitewash the nazi billionaire who mainstreamed nazi talking points buying twitter than literally do anything that their progressive anti genocide base wants.
