i don't want to detach myself from the current situation dreaming about the possible horrors of the future while sitting in the midst of a genocide, but i feel this is one of those things you kinda have to think about especially considering the scale of its consequences. this isn't a 'nothing matters we're gonna die in a nuclear war anyway!' kindveof here, this actually is something that we know will happen and are already seeing """""gradually""""" take form. my worries here are primarily the response to the migration. we are already seeing far-right governments take hold all over europe and the west in general and as material conditions worsen the need to further act on their racist class-obscuring rhetoric will increase as they push people into a genocidal frenzy, blaming their woes on the hundreds of millions if not billions of refugees. gaza will be as herero and nama genocide was to the holocaust. the chicken must come home to roost and we will see the methods pioneered by our imperialism brought home. no longer will you be watching a holocaust on your phone, because it will be happening right in front of you, or more accurately, to you.

don't think we should be wasting a lot of time pondering this considering the issues at hand but we have to at least prepare for something along these lines as i do not see a future different from the one i depicted being possible without a radical reconstitution of the west. which isn't an impossibility like some doomers seem to think but not within 10-20 years when it really becomes a problem. maybe our only hope is Hezbollah al-Biritaniu like in children of men
