@davidrevoy there’s no fire in Ba Sing Se
@davidrevoy I know you're talking about global warming, but one time at my job at a picture frame shop, there was a massive fire on the same block (not our building, but about three storefronts down) and my boss wouldn't let us go home early or even make a plan to evacuate the art.
Spent all day telling customers over the phone not to come down because the road out front was completely blocked off with fire trucks.

@pencilears Oh no. Yes, the allegory is about Global Warming/Climate Change, but it is also broad enough for many topics. The real main topic is about the delusional response of people refusing to see the emergency, so your experience totally matches that.
@davidrevoy very accurate. sadly!
@davidrevoy Ha! Pure fantasy. Has nothing to so with real events! ;-)

@Jalella *wink* *wink* 🙂
@davidrevoy "Well okay, there are some scattered flames... but that's all part of the natural cycle! We've had fires before and survived, and anyway it's not our fault and there's nothing we can do about it."

@davidrevoy I literally peeled off a fasch sticker today insinuating that the climate collapse is "green propaganda" and a hot summer is all fine and dandy, so this is frightingly timely 🤢

@jfml I feel it. I wrote this one after being confronted also to situation on my trip back from Paris.
How some people respond delusionally to any stressful 'global' situation... In this comic, the first guy diminishes the effect, the woman in second solves the problem selfishly with money (the higher class dodging the issue with their resources), and the last dog-man blames a minority (racism).

@davidrevoy @jfml

@davidrevoy je pense que la dernière case va pouvoir resservir en réaction meme ><
@davidrevoy Exactly the local public broadcast here: "There is no heatwave, we really love 38°C and the hotter the better, record heat yeah!"
@davidrevoy
...this is fine...
@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org
Not understanding your reference for there's no fire here if , the fire is about south Europe. but if about fire in the Middle East then it makes sense

@spirillen Many topics. The fire is just a metaphor.
@davidrevoy the City dwellers are the perfect electorate for the current German government 😂😂
@davidrevoy Everything is fire!
i feel this comic spezialy
@davidrevoy oh and also: "There is no war in Ba Sing Se"

@xarvos 👍Yes, a direct reference to that, and also to the famous "Our house is on fire" quote of Greta Thunberg.
