Your problem is that you falsely believe people are inherently rational.

Well then we weren't going to make it anyway.
Not at all, you could just as well make the same point about capitalism as a whole. Capitalism is a failed system that ought to be overthrown yet the vast majority of people are not taking action against it. It all has to do with the hegemony of the bourgeoisie who manage to continuously perpetuate disinformation through the media and all sorts of societal platforms. It's much harder than you might think to go against this hegemonic discourse.
The difference is the left tends to operate under the idea that capitalism will eventually collapse itself. The proper thing to do then is to simply prepare, push for better conditions for the working class in the time being so that when the opportunity arises people are not so oppressed and dejected they lack the energy to take advantage of the situation, and maybe look for opportunities to try and remind everyone we exist. Its already been said, random terrorism is not good praxis. The thing i mention though is not the same, there is already proof that marx inspired ideas can work, and are a real thing.
Further if some leftist terrorist did something it would just hurt the image of the left. If soft spoken well respected tenured professors who are experts on climate go suicide bomb the UN, people are going to go "what the fuck just happened?" and take notice.
LMAO waiting for the next 50 years and see the nothing that happens is the only reason i don't want to kill myself at this point
Is climate change denial considered an American thing? I've seen the assumption (the poster being American) be made over the last few years and have always been curious.
I've seen it pretty much everywhere but it's mostly bootlickers that do it of whom a vast portion are amerimutts.
There's nothig left to do, people are retarded and don't give a fuck, just do whatever you want for 12 years, kill a rich person if you can, stay safe though
I don't see how the comparison doesn't work. Some leftists ARE also taking direct action against multinationals destroying the climate (look up Ende Gelände for example which just happened yesterday) but in general the vast majority of people take an apathetic stance both towards capitalism and towards the effects of multinationals on the climate. They aren't apathetic out of their own fault though, but because porky keeps them like this.
It's a grave mistake to assume things can't really be that bad just because no one is taking radical action. Most people still aren't aware of the necessity of such action, and the ones who are are too isolated and unorganized to do a whole lot about it. I wonder what kind of thing you'd expect to happen if the situation really IS that bad? Literally climate experts suicide bombing the UN?
