Rich, (mostly) white men, whose policies have taken us to an ecological brink, still think they are superior to the rest of us and deserve to continue to rule. The Republican Party in the US has the power and influence to change the global narrative and lack of action on the climate crisis and they do nothing. They do worse than nothing. They deny and obstruct while our planet burns. We are totally unprepared for what's coming down the pike and these (mostly) men are totally unqualified to lead. Humanity is headed for full on FUBAR.
