That's a deeply unfortunate take, at any rate. While I think we can all summon up the desire.... in january..... for warmer weather, we fail to acknowledge the profound global changes which must certainly be in place to afford us such repreive..and our dependence on those other places in those moments of longing. In a do-nothing climate future, it's certainly warmer for many of us global northeners in january. I'm used to seeding tomatoes right now and in a few short years that should be the conventional model in my region. It's also poorer, less certain, and more desperate.
In that context, I can understand why some people fantasize about being the last men standing - but in mere reality, those people are human dross. Even...and especially... among the last men standing, they have no place. Useless eaters - and it's at this point I invoke the ancient boogeyman. Yes, I will absolutely kill you and take all of your things to buy just one more day for me and my own. I...am only middle of the scale or lower on the order of horrors you will have to face for the privilege of warmer winters. This is hardly an acceptable view of future outcomes - and it obviously has nothing to do with fair shares of damage or feasible climate tariffs.
