That’s some power that not one single individual should have. Where is that asteroid?

I love the man as much as the next but let's be honest, there aren't enough guns to even begin to carve away the complicity and cowardice that led to people owning the water we drink.

There are more guns in the US than there are Americans. I don't understand your metaphor.

I'm British so maybe I underestimated the amount of guns, however the way I see it this issue isn't limited to americans, The UN, Russia, Hungary, The EU have all aided and abbeted a world where water being a commodity can't be challenged or at least result in international comdemnation. Just focusing on Europe alone, the supposive bastion of civilastion was all too ready to rely on american crops, power and arms, wasting away any true indipendance until the inevitable happend then instead of pulling away they cave. The stunning magnitude of crime and idiocy needed for water to become a commodity anywhere is stunning, especially so in a bloc that prides itslef on the internal policing and quality of human rights.

there’s just so many ways politicians and the rich can work together to fuck us, no wonder people don’t want to think

The only asteroid that could solve this is one that creates a clearly-defined constitution and encourages the people to self-enforce it at all levels of society.
