Devastating Logic.

Last night realised caring for nature, politics and our environment is mostly a middle class concern. It’s led by TV personalities for people with enough money and time to act. They, we, consider it the right thing to do because of education and awareness. All well and good, but. Those who’re struggling to make ends meet, who don’t have the time to think about it or the education and awareness to appreciate our upcoming problems consider it differently. We’re, ‘the one’s who have too much time on our hands, have a bee in our bonnet, are too comfortably off to understand the real practicalities of ordinary life.’ They definitely don’t think, ‘they’re better educated and know more about these things than I do so I’d better listen to them.’ So it all becomes a well intentioned shot in the foot. Have we become the creators of Trump supporters and Brexiteers? A chill descends. Only Greta Thunburg escapes this puritanical umbrella. And the wealthy are no better. They’re so comfortably off and equally uneducated to worry about global warming; they already have an air conditioned chill-out room, home cinema and gym. It’s hard to know what to do for the best. The best I can think of is laugh. We’re not wealthy but comfortable enough to survive Trump and Brexit, and even the pandemic because we’re aware, we think. It’s the unthinking unaware that’ll take the brunt of all these problems. So manya manya manya thickos you brought it on yourselves! You should have thought about it. Tough love I know but someone's got to do it.
