One of the recent climate papers on the topic (from accredited researchers but not yet peer reviewed) estimates “The earliest year (mean 10% percentile level) for a potential AMOC collapse is 2037 and the latest year (mean 90% percentile level) is 2064” and “Applying the same procedure to SODA and GLORYS results in 91% and 92% collapse probabilities before 2050, respectively” - which if proven to be even remotely true is not just concerning but actually apocalyptical - it means mainland Europe might begin seeing +40 summers and -20 winters in the next 20-30 years - which makes it practically impossible to develop infrastructure in that timeframe that can survive such harsh temperature swings.
For anyone that has kids or is under 30 and plans on trying to survive - as preppy as it might sound - I would recommend starting to think about underground dwellings and controlled environment hydroponic gardening asap.
Riiiight, that’s why on a lemmygrad post literally defending Russian war camps as western propaganda (and how the oppression of Uyghurs was completely fabricated) I got downvoted to hell for even suggesting that China was complicit in Uyghur ethnic cleansing, as if they’re not de facto enforcing Putonghua onto all ethnic groups within its territory - but they said it’s fine since why is teaching people skills and languages bad…
I’m sure you’d make the same argument that it’s actually to the benefit of a third of African counties, India and the Philippines for their official language to be English. See the British empire just wanted to teach them languages and free market skills so they could escape their “poverty and backwardness” (the literal words the Chinese gov uses for Xinjiang residents) - so I don’t see how your point about “none fully support Russia” stands when hardcore MLs are literally full out defending any actions Russia and China take as not only justified but morally good…
