If we think of the most powerful people as misanthropic Malthusian accelerationists that are aware of how bad the climate catastrophe is getting, many of their behaviours make sense. I'm not saying this is the whole absolute reality, but the data fits and the causal mechanisms are logically sound. If someone else can provide a more correct model, particularly if it changes the following conclusions, I am interested.
If we accept this model, it follows directly that they view the majority (>90%) of humanity as something between a disposable resource to exploit to death and a direct enemy to be destroyed as soon as possible.
Given that conclusion, I ask if it does not follow that all means of self defense and rebellion against them are not justified? Any attempts to dissuade them is against a short timeline of real threat and the urgency this model assumes they are already operating under.
Any other possible models or conclusions are invited. Pearl clutching and explicit (legally actionable) calls to action will be ignored. And any proposed elaborations or improvemrnts are welcome.

This is a good time for an #introduction I suppose.

I'm an #educator from #stl that firmly believes in decentralized self organization, such as #anarchism, #socialecology, #solarpunk, or #librarysocialism.

Also I'm a big #urbanism and #foss nerd and #ebike commuter. I'm very involved in the local #freestore and trying to help organize larger #postcapitalist ventures.
