Having now reached the “supermarkets offering loans to buy food” point I am Genuinely fascinated to see just how far late stage capitalism can go before people finally wake the gently caress up.

I see Pippa Crerar’s fairly underwhelming scoop for her first week in the hotseat at The Grauniad is that Truss, to the surprise of no one, feels the working class in this country have it too easy and should be herded into Shenzhen style slave factories.

There is no lower bound. If there was one person who had all the money, and everyone else on the planet served that person, that could continue indefinitely. Well, this thread doesn't like doomerism of course, so when I say indefinitely I mean within the constraints of thermodynamics and our biosphere.

I am not ruling out the possibility that I will end up as some sort of screaming skeletal revenant forever battling in the armies of the final tory pm, but at least I will be better equipped to deal with the weather. And the screaming will be cathartic.

Tesseraction posted:I will be the doomer this thread needs: we're all going to die About 94% of the historical human population is currently dead, but that leaves 6% of winners who have never died. I have a proven track record of being alive, and my projections show that this state of affairs will continue indefinitely. In fact, I anticipate growing increasingly more alive year-on-year for the foreseeable futute.

The bank is going to reposess the leftovers if you don't keep up repayments. Which will then be sold at auction to enterprising second hand pizza dealers from the home counties who will have a television show where they do up old half eaten pizzas and sell them at a markup.

There are oldies in my local Nextdoor group debating why burglaries and petty theft are rising in my area. The answer is to get our MP to get more police and have them patrol all over town every night apparently. Not even a single mention about why people might resort to stealing poo poo in the first place.
