This is insanely naive. There's nothing coming after this, hence the interest at all levels to keep the game going as long as possible. You'll be that comic with the flower complaining about having to till the soil.

Wanting to get it over with is still a pretty reasonable position.

yeah there is nothing after this for the people at the top who are keeping to going at all costs. I don't really feel guilty about hoping for their failure cuz they hope the same on me.

It isn't going to be like changing the channel, despite what every lived experience you've had so far tells you.

i have a history degree I've studied the details of the English civil war the French revolution the collapse of the Roman Empire the bronze age collapse the first world war. Lots of collapses! it was my speciality! I know what I'm looking forward to

But yeah your right, knowing all that it's not really healthy to be looking forward to what's to come! but I also know there will be something after

The collapse isn't going to have a moment where everyone agrees that we've collapse. It'll be larger and larger tent cities, and more and more people dying in hospitals, while millions of Canadians say "I still have a job and a house, it's fine!"

Did you by any chance have to repeat any of these courses?

It would take longer than however long any of us can expect to continue living for society to reorganize to be able to provide any degree of comfort for an ordinary person, not even considering the likelihood of death during collapse/"rebuilding".

Don't worry, the elites' prosperity will be totally uninterrupted throughout this time so it'd be like nothing at all transpired for them with the added bonus of hardship for people who had no cause to suffer!

you don't understand history at all lol. collapse comes to the elite, the most comfortable first. when no one pays the soldiers they go steal the rich guys stuff. the stuff they were just guarding

If you think things are fine and nbd that reveals a lot about your privileged circumstances. In that case I can understand being dismissive of “doomers” (realists) because you better hope it holds up for your sake!

literally no one said things are fine. they're not. there's a huge difference between that, and actual doomerism itt (which is not being "realist" actually, at all)

Certainly, but hoping it doesn't happen quite yet is equally a meaningless proposition.

Honestly it is what eats at me is that we are the cusp of something that is going to loving suck. Quit edging me collapse, just do it.
