i’m not sure why so many of us have fallen into this… “there is no other future” thing…

there are other options. plenty of them. there is no singular solution. we could always just say “no”. and that’s that. that would be one option.

why do we feel like there is no other way? why are we afraid to say “nah”?

I suspect because some of these things would require us all to say no, which is difficult to coordinate and enforce.

It's not impossible, but it's not as easy as "just" saying no, as a society.
