Seriously... if you are younger than 40 I don't know what you're all waiting for to take charge of the systems and demand changes to allow you to HAVE a future beyond 2050.

Feedback loops are real. This is not an opinion. Ignoring something unpleasant doesn't make it better. You all - those destined to struggle in the dystopia - should be far more insistent that your lives matter and taking control of the levers of power to protect them. No one else is coming to save you.
