I predict something important will happen in Glasgow 11/ 5. Neoliberal establishment won't be able to get away with performative half-measures this time. They won't just be met by an army of "protesters;" they'll be met by the power & force of the desire for a survivable future.
On Friday Nov 5 I’ll join the climate strike in Glasgow, during #COP26 Climate justice also means social justice and that we leave no one behind. So we invite everyone, especially the workers striking in Glasgow, to join us. See you there! #UprootTheSystem @fff_glasgow

I predict nothing substantial will happen 11/5 because while massive protests give those engaged in them a sense of accomplishment they have no effect whatever on those for whom the masses are an expendable "resource".

BUT...the protest movements are gaining new maturing and strength. I feel that.

Your conclusion, while commendable optimistic, relies on the false premise—that those in the power structure have a conscience. They don't. Our only hope is that we can counter generations of conditioning and get people to understand they must all be replaced by legitimate means.
