GoKawiilCommentary warns against 'exit culture' responses to overlapping global crises
An opinion piece argues that climate breakdown, inequality, technological disruption, war and weakening democracy are compounding into a single overlapping crisis rather than separate problems. It criticizes what it calls 'exit culture' — responses ranging from wealthy individuals buying private security and property, to hard-right nationalist movements, religious escapism, and tech utopianism promising escape via AI or space — as dangerous fantasies rather than real solutions. The piece also cautions against a left-wing tendency to romanticize institutional collapse as automatically progressive.
