The increasing frequency of heatwaves is not simply a climate problem. It is a complete political reality.
Capitalism is plunging us into the inferno by sacrificing our lives on the altar of profit.
The heatwave: a stark reminder of inequality.
Those who try to reduce this disaster to a natural phenomenon or individual behavior are complicit in unspeakable violence. This political stance aims to absolve the true culprits: capitalism, large corporations, and the states that protect them.
The heatwave strikes with targeted violence the most vulnerable and isolated, exposed workers, the homeless and those living in inadequate housing, working-class neighborhoods, and so on.
It is not the rich who suffer, but everyone else, considered a commodity by the vast capitalist market. Downplaying climate change is protecting the profiteers.
Capitalism is condemning us to the flames.
Heatwaves are killing people. And meanwhile, political leaders and those in power refuse to take the necessary steps to stop this headlong rush. Perhaps because they themselves are contributing to the problem...
Believing that we will escape the flames by simply entering the voting booth is sheer blindness.
The origin of this conflagration is known: it is the direct consequence of productivism, extractivism, and capitalism in all its forms. It is the result of human activities carried out with the complicity of the powerful who protect their interests.
Their credo: produce, produce, and make people consume until life is exhausted. This credo throws into the flames the fauna of which we are a part and the flora on which we depend!
Capitalism plunders everything: water, land, forests, and even the air itself. Our response must be commensurate with the attack: capitalist expropriation and a radical change in the way we produce!
Down with capital!
Down with those who give the orders!
Down with all power, wherever it comes from!
Let's expect nothing from the market, the state, or bosses. Only a collective awakening, coupled with the establishment of a real balance of power against this deadly system, can save what can still be saved. Mutual aid, solidarity, and the systematic refusal to submit to liberal logic have now become existential imperatives. The future will be determined by our ability to organize ourselves to defend ourselves against the predation of a handful of exploiters.
Everything will come from us.
For self-management, for social justice, for complete emancipation!
