tl;dr my country is literally on fire and the politicians refuse to help
I know there’s a lot going on in the world, but you probably haven’t heard about what’s happening in Australia.
we’re on fire.

approximately ¼ of australia’s population is in catastrophic fire danger. A catastrophic fire level means your only chance of surviving is leaving before it’s too late.

it’s Spring in Australia, and rainforests aren’t meant to be dry enough to burn, yet at the time of writing this (11/11/19) there are 71 active fires in NSW (43 out of control), and 51 active fires in Queensland - not including those that have already burned before now, and there are more in other states. Sydney is already rated “catastrophic”, the first time this rating has ever been used there since its creation in 2009. That’s right, we had to add yet another level of destructiveness, because “high”, “very high”, “severe”, and “extreme” were no longer adequate. To quote the Fire Danger Ratings, “for your survival, leaving early is the only option”. conditions tomorrow will be the worst they have been, and people are evacuating as we speak. the fire fighters are preparing as best they can.

This isn’t just about people losing their homes; people have died and will die, countless animals have already lost their lives and many more will still perish. our land, our lives, and our hope is up in flames and will soon be nothing but ash. the annual fire season has not even begun yet. this is only the beginning. my native land is burning, and there is nothing i can do to stop it.

the government refuses to acknowledge that we are in a climate crisis. the fires have never been this bad. we have been in severe drought for more than a year which has only contributed to the force of these fires. the Prime Minister Scott Morrison has done nothing but send his “thoughts and prayers”. He will not accept aid from other countries because he is too egotistical to admit that we need it. All the while the people of this land are suffering. Climate change needs radical human change to be combated. we are already seeing the results of years of indifference, and this is barely the beginning of something that will only get worse the longer government’s and big companies refuse to act to counteract climate change.

Our government has also cut funding to Fire and Rescue NSW by 35.4%, the Rural Fire Service by 75.2%, and QLD Rural Fire Service by 26.42%, resulting in closures of services; they don’t have the resources to cope. We are fighting a losing battle against the results of climate change. and this is only the beginning.

The Green New Deal involves turning away from fossil fuel energy in return for electronic and solar, and the biggest component for that green energy is lithium batteries.
Bolivia is undergoing a right wing US backed coup as we speak. Bolivia has one of the world's highest concentrations of lithium.
Do the math.

>New interview with Gamefreak employees comes out
>They're pretty much depressed as fuck and have been for years now
>They state that they purposely don't make any effort anymore because they know that any Pokemon product will selll no matter what
>Superiors know and endorse this
>Spirit and creativity completely dead, their superiors overwork them constantly, they only stay for the ridiculously high pay
>Game looks and plays like shit
>The mass cut of Pokemon and moves could be avoided if the game was programmed properly but they still do it like they're in the 90's
>Recicled animations for pretty much anything
>The final cutscene is literally static images
> You have to pay for a service that may or may not guarantee that you'll be able to play with your old Pokemon in the future
>The Pokemon Company takes down multiple videos complaining of these isuues but only of small channels that cannot defend themselves
>The day after the interview the current director of SW/SH likes multiple tweets of mindless consumers saying that the game is good anyways
>Masuda who waits days to answer to people complaining about the game, answers immediately to these tweets
>The fucking "#ThankYouGamefreak" starts trending
>Suddenly the interview and the critics are obscured once more
