       @mori_au It's hard because I'm not in a position to do what I think needs to be done, but if I was financially secure such that I didn't need to work anymore & my family would be provided for, I would stop working, find similarly situated people who care about trying to save the planet for the next generation & spend the rest of my time on this earth working with others to (1) figure out how to change the trajectory we are on (by any means necessary); and (2) organize people to make that happen.

       @gulovsen 1/2 This is not intended to be flip or snarky, but an honest question:What might happen if everyone under 30 voted?I’m kind of in the same boat as you. I’m disabled, on a fixed income, so I lack the means to organize for real change. I agree with most of that article. But it seems to me that the only way we will see real change is revolution. Not armed conflict but strength in numbers, united with the goal of dethroning the plutocrats.

       2/2 As long as the planet runs on profits, there will be a small group of the super rich exploiting everyone else. I don’t think I’ll see real change in my lifetime, but I have faith in the power of motivated, organized younger people.The old foundations crumble with people like #AOC, #GretaThunberg, #KhaleaEdwards, #TajiChesimet, #AshtonMota, and dozens more, affecting real change by protesting, raising awareness, mentoring other young people, and showing how activism can make real change.
