What it will do, a real democracy, is to change the weighting, it won't take away your greed, egoism ignorance and hubris. that one is for you to handle. What it will do is to give other values than profit a chance to be heard, without interpretations. It will show us who we are.

And if you won't?

Well, there will be other species.

All of, leaving a possible change to the few countries closest to a democracy. And the change must come from you, demanding it.

What I think you need to understand, from my point of view, is that the ground from where it builds are you. Also that the game produce streamlined 'role models' that 'fought' their way up. Combine those two and ask yourself how probable it is that this game will change? That's a main reason for why I tell you that there will be no revolution coming, no matter who wins a civil war.

All of it played from a top -> down  definition, in where the bottom layers main purpose is to generate the profits making the top layers able to 'decide'.

Should add what that game builds on. Greed. egoism, ignorance and hubris. There are other variables too naturally but I would call those the main ingredients of the game. Then how it express itself will depend on wealth and social structures. As when it comes to 'Aid', or 'human rights' etc etc.

And the reason we keep doing it?

Our game of inequality.

What it means is that the global warming we see today is different from those earlier extinction events.  We're digging up fossils, producing green house gasses as CO2 and methane. They store heat, releasing it they warm up earth and oceans, melting the Arctic and Antarctic, creating wild fires, storms, floods and droughts, and decay. And doing so releasing even more CO2 formerly bound in the ground. And when it comes to the oceans there will be a boundary for how much CO2 it can store, over some defined time period. That one will depend on stuff like winds, underwater streams, circulation between deep water and shallow etc. It's a whole earth system changing.

I should add oxygen deprivation (dead spots) and acidity to what happens in our oceans today. Combine that with over fishing getting more desperate the less life exist in those shallow layers of the ocean where we catch most of our our food fish. And then we have artificial fertilizers and other compounds as plastics leaking out in them, topsoil deteriorating, getting worse on containing CO2 etc etc etc. If I made a whole list of our disasters I would need to get drunk.

And the game, built on values and beliefs.

If that is what you mean you have a really good point to how people thinks, the way we define somethings worth, and ones wallet.

It's like precious metals, isn't it. what we deem to be worth something. Like paintings going up in value after the painter dies.

Alternatively you mean that people valued a face card more and gave, let's say two 3:s for one face card? That's funny :)

If you by it mean that they had all possible values? As in a face card and a 2 and a 3? And those without face cards didn't? Was the distribution of values equal?

I don't get that one Alan? The guys starting with face (picture) cards owning all other cards?
A trade imply a exchange of cards?

No it's not dangerous, it's about the data you get out of them, depending on how much we know the data might change but the consensus is already here. and nobody is arguing that CO2 must be what comes first. It's a major driver though, and why it is is because it stores heat, that's pure physics, and so do other green house gasses.


Sorry, data is data, what I mean is that the interpretation of them might change with more knowledge. It doesn't change the reasons behind global warming though, or the physics of it.

We can't fight it through this game. And we don't want to change the game.

It's a downward spiral, like a war, but not like any war we ever fought before. And there is no motivation to fight it.

The point I'm driving at is that the game of inequality can't change.

And the same goes for the other borders the EU use, and how they are used.

Well, that depends on why they leave, and what options they have, don't it? And it will get worse as it deteriorates.
