Honestly, I think Godzilla would make a lot of things better. If all the worlds governments are focusing their efforts and militaries on it, then they wouldn't be able to continue focusing on this speed run into world fascism and pointless international wars.
we have videos and pictures of a genocide and ethnic cleansing that's literally live streamed into devices in the palm of our hands every other minute of every day, but over 60% of americans still can't recognize it as such.
Ok..regarding this, I seriously got a text this morning from some political thing that started off by asking, "Do you stand with Israel?" I responded with something along the lines of, "No, I don't support genocide." Which they responded with, "Israel isn't commiting a genocide, it's only defending itself and.." blah blah blah more Israel talking points. It's sickening.
So it's not just "Americans can't recognize it" as much as a chunk of Americans are getting shoveled Israel propaganda to such a degree it's easier to go along with the lie than face the truth.

I mean we already have a climate crisis that's threatening our entire civilization. Do you see governments uniting to deal with it in any way?

To be fair, a giant lizard is WAY harder to ignore or sell as a hoax.

Okay but I promise you that being on the coast where Godzilla makes landfall would NOT make anything that you have better.
