Humanity has wiped out 60% of animals since 1970, major report finds

At the end of the day, the left is no better than the right.

Communism, socialism, capitalism, fascism, etc. All have built to excess like cancerous growths on the earth.

Until we focus on a minimalist approach, and one where we understand less can be more, we are going nowhere.

We have our priorities completely fucked up. We queue for days for an iPhone yet walk passed the homeless. We will invest into buying a house for 30 years yet cannot give up a room in that house to shelter someone in need. We play video games to level up yet have no intention of levelling up our society.

We really need to get some sense of perspective. No political ideology is going to fix this. People need to take action themselves.

If every taxpayer put £1 per month into a pit, that's £30m a month. Are we really going to pretend we don't have that £1? Funny how people have it for beer, drugs, video games, TV, Netflix, the list goes on, but not just £1 to help those truly in need? I think it's bullshit.
