"That kind of change and revolution doesn't happen overnight."
There's understanding in Jim's voice as he stares down the cliffside to the hovels and people down below. From everything he's learned talking to Furiosa, the old society was pretty cut and dry, with women having little to no freedom. That at least, seems to be changing.
"Besides, even as you change, the world at large is even slower to do so. Change too quickly, and you might become a target." He scans the lands as far as he can see in as many directions as the cliff allows, blown away by the sheer vast emptiness of it all. "So you get water from an aquifer underground I take it. When's the last time it actually rained around here?"
