How do you guys cope? Asking for a friend

It's a crazy time to be alive to be sure as we're watching the existing world order creak and splinter. Western capitalism is buckling under the weight of its own contradictions. Climate chaos, mass extinction, wars of desperation, the crises pile up as the system enters terminal decline. Yet within the rubble, there lies a possibility for a different world as well.

The Global South is rewriting the rules of the game and shaking off western exploitation. Look at China's green tech blitz, vaulting past the West in solar, EVs, and nuclear power. Or Vietnam, massively slashing poverty in the past three decades while building a socialist economy that leaves IMF orthodoxy in the dust. These are blueprints for the rest of the world to follow. The axis of power is tilting away from extraction and plunder and toward socialism. The failures of neoliberalism are discrediting western model even in the west at this point. While reactionary backlash will escalate as the west becomes increasingly desperate, there is a potential of a better world on the horizon, and that gives me hope for the future.

Chores often feels pointless in those times

Me too thanks
