Death … Especially death of hundreds or thousands
No one cares until people, lots of people start dying … because it implies that everyone is at risk of getting killed by these events.
In the meantime, when there’s just damaged houses and people calling in their insurances … it’s all just a curiosity and a neat headline.
No one will care until we see the death toll rise

You know, i used to think that too. Then Covid happened and it turned out that even more americans dying every few days than did during 9/11 from an easily preventable disease still saw outright denial and anger at anyone who took even the simplest and smallest of precautions.
Yup. I’m fairly convinced that once things do get bad enough, those same people will do the same thing they did during the early times of COVID, ie. lash out violently at anyone trying to fix the situation and even blame the “liberals” for creating it.
I doubt they’ll literally ever be able to adjust to the idea that maybe all this shit that’s going on is humanity’s fault, not to mention that at this point they’re the ones most staunchly against doing anything to fix the situation so they bear even more resposibilty. Or they should bear more at any rate, they just won’t – it’ll be easier to murder leftists and concentrate on making everything worse so they’ll have even more excuses to murder us.
Yeah… Sadly this is the most likely outcome.
