Yeah. I remember that “it changed everything.”
My point is nothing will change because LA is burning. No amount of climate catastrophe porn on the internet, or nightly news is going to cause our oligarchs to stop burning fossil fuels.
They would absolutely just rebuild/replace the sign and make it out of recycled plastic drinking straws or something, and plant a bunch of trees to symbolize the importance of carbon neutrality. Nothing learned.
As horrific as these fires are, I do believe major Hollywood landmarks burning to ash might, possibly, have people think about considering planning to plan about a way to maybe fight climate change. Which would be a whole lot better than the current situation
I dont have a lot of faith that when the world (especially America) wakes up to what's coming it'll result in us embracing peace on earth and goodwill towards our fellow man.
Yeah, except the kind of 9/11 where instead of using it as a pretext for a racist persecution complex that kills millions, everyone will just continue to ignore it and not do anything significant about it as we all continue to burn year after year.
Yes, but I just didn’t know if you meant the burning Hollywood sign would make us go to war against climate change and fix it once and for all (good) or destroy other countries in the name of fixing climate change while actually making it worse (bad).
Can’t wait for a bunch of celebrities to make a video signing in response to the people who lost their homes. If only their vast wealth, numerous connections and large mansions could somehow help… Could you… imagine
i was talking to chelsea about how he's always so right because we were sharing our distaste for "this looks like a warzone" and "this looks like it's from a movie" being the stupidest descriptors of all time
Ngl, that would be actually kind of cool? Like… I honestly think it would help the world a fuck of a lot more than hurt it. The ultimate symbol of comforting American / capitalist illusions burning in the fires of American / capitalist realities and consequences.
What we are seeing now is like 9/11! For instance, Lawrence O’Donnell on MSNBC is reporting on new fire outbreaks and does not know if his own house has burned.
Remember when Iran kept having weird accidents at all its industrial facilities that were tangentially related to nuclear energy or aeronautics, and Iranian physicists kept winding up dead, and Stuxnet infected millions of computers and led to keylogger malware using the same delivery vector?
Anyways expect developing nations with high CO2 output or a lot of people in vulnerable areas to start experiencing energy sector industrial accidents and political unrest via 'destabilization'
you guys are missing the obvious, we need to give all our landmarks guns, the hollywood sign needs a gun, the grand canyon needs a gun, there needs to be 4 guns for mount rushmore, one for each head.
Honestly, I think a lot more needs to burn down before people do anything. At that point it’ll already be too late. Yet today, we aren’t doing enough. Fate has been sealed.

MANIFESTJNG THIS
Goddamn, I wish I were joking with hyperbole.
Which is almost the same thing
Hope she’s well!
(3000 in the towers and 3000+ for GW's illegal war) he literally killed more americans than 9/11 for no reason :) what a time to be alive!
I need to see the literal downfall of Hollywood.
🎵Pour some radioactive quarters on me!🎵

Or sends us into two pointless wars, destabilizing entire regions.
Or tells the firefighters that helped out to go Fu€k themselves?
