. . . But I thought that I read, (and I could be wrong) that Streep had actually done a nude scene.

Re: My original point about privileging the older but powerful over the young who can both contribute to the gene pool and who will have to live (or die) in a future made by the old and powerful--the one character in that scene whom we know had a child managed to forget about rescuing her child.

I think that was a deliberate story-telling choice. It was a way to hammer home the point that the only protective instincts at work in the minds of our current older politicos are the instincts to preserve their lives, personal comforts and bank accounts. They really don't care what sort of a world future generations will have to face.

Hell, even I tend to seek cold comfort in the knowledge that I will be dead before some of the worst shit hits the fan vis a vis the coming environmental show-down. I don't think such thoughts because I don't care. It's because my mental health is so fragile at times that the only way I can get through the day is to remind myself that I won't be here to see some of the crap to come.

Frankly, I don't know how thoughtful, aware people young people like Greta Thunberg hang on to any shred of sanity. Anybody who tells her to "lighten up and enjoy life" and "go back to school" so she can prepare for the future is an utter asshole.
