"In my country today there are people who are wondering if the Resistance had a real military impact on the course of the war. For my generation this question is irrelevant: we immediately understood the moral and psychological meaning of the Resistance. For us it was a point of pride to know that we Europeans did not wait passively for liberation. And for the young Americans who were paying with their blood for our restored freedom it meant something to know that behind the firing lines there were Europeans paying their own debt in advance."
- Umberto Eco, author of "Ur-Fascism"
[edited to remove "Umberto Eco's words as an Italian Resistance fighter." He wasn't, he was too young.]
I hope there are very few Climate Crisis holdouts at this point.
You'd be amazed and horrified. Most of the people on my local-area social media seem to be full-blown old-school climate deniers.
"Our people have made the mistake of confusing the methods with the objectives. As long as we agree on objectives, we should never fall out with each other just because we believe in different methods or tactics or strategy to reach a common goal."
The US ... can only be described as waging ecological warfare.
The best way to lose a war is to not realise you're in one. When do we start acting as though we are actually at war with these people and systems? When do we start studying strategy and taking risks? Are we all waiting for Climate John Brown?
