We just need to vote harder! If we get out there and support Democrats like Manchin and Sinema, one day things will get better, at least for the fossil fuel industry. Right?
The real situation is so very much worse that most people cannot bear to consider the truth.
I agree with your assessment. Bills like this are a huge setback, because politicians can say, look, we passed a climate bill, what more do you want? Same as the ACA, which set back the fight for universal, free health care by already 13 years, and probably will for decades. Only socialism has any chance of turning the ship around. Capitalists have no choice but to chase profits at the expense of the entire living world. Capitalism=death.
I’ve been an environmental activist for over 50 years (& BTW, it’s too late)! Thinking we shouldn’t pass this while we can (knowing Progressives will continue the fight), is like thinking trump’s violent, racist Amerika is ready to vote for the Green Party!
So, have at it—stick to your “guns no matter what” & die anyway ‼️

The Democratic Party is where progressive ideas go to die. The streets are where they will come alive and grow.
