Fister Roboto posted:My favorite is the people who are on the bargaining stage of grief, ie it's not going to be THAT bad. My dad's a big fan of saying that people can just move north to Canada and Siberia, which will of course be perfectly hospitable and ready to support billions of people with zero effort. The temperature of those areas might become livable in our post-climate change hellscape while India ends up abandoned, but the current days of easy food production in the quantities required for the current population to not drop by low to mid double digit percents will be completely, irrevocably rear end-hosed sans lube. Rough estimate is about a century per inch of topsoil, assuming an otherwise balanced and lively ecosystem in perfect conditions (like nutrient rich rains rinsing off mountains and accumulating in valleys) and less ideal places, you can double or triple that time. Siberian wastelands are....not that. Edit, that's also just talking soil. Latest I read was something 30-40% caloric drop in production of staple crops like wheat and rice, purely from the excess atmospheric CO2, which is another point you're likely to hear, "Plants love CO2, they grow better with more of it, it'll be fine!" because they're loving stupid and swallowing any excuse they can find on Facebook to ignore how truly, thoroughly, hosed we are. bird food bathtub fucked around with this message at 19:37 on Aug 3, 2019 |

A lot of the recent mass shooter "manifestos" are also super dense with sarcastic extremely-online bullshit sourced from the infected cloaca of 8chan and the like specifically for the purposes of trolling.

NPR was going over the Rod Blagoya-whatever thing on the way home.

Which is why people on actual suicide watch get poo poo like basically-paper hospital gowns and the like.

Eh, fits right in with Supply-Side Jesus talk. For-profit imprisonment isn't lucrative enough, let's throw a veneer of Good Christian Stuff on it and force them to work for free. Much more profitable when then government supplies your slaves and pays for their food and shelter. You don't even need to buy them from across the ocean and take care of them anymore! No private investment needed, just socialize all the costs and take the profits.

There's also a loving brick wall of motivated ignorance in this country. A whole big god drat lot of people want to hear about how 'the racism' is over and they're not the bad people that did it, and at the same time they want to hear about how everything is the fault of anyone that fails the paper bag test. Anything that goes counter to the simple pablum they get spoon fed to them by their preferred media sources is something they're emotionally motivated against understanding.

So those ICE raids where kids went to their first day of school then came home to locked doors and found out they're likely going to be orphans now? My first thought was, "Man it's hosed up that the employees keep getting busted for this poo poo because racism but the people hiring them get away with it time and time again." Well gently caress me sideways with a cactus, I wasn't cynical enough. The racist cruelty isn't just the point, it's also really profitable to call in an ICE raid on your own employees if they dare to do something that might even hint at being organized labor. https://twitter.com/carterforva/sta...ingawful.com%2F

The fascist playbook has already been written, we know what the Republican response to deep dicking the economy will be. The only two questions left are which out-group will be the highest profile when they need a target to redirect their base's anger away from themselves and how far they'll push to cripple democracy to stay in power during the upheaval.

Our current poo poo-ministration has already hosed things up so bad and so deeply that it's inevitable things are going to go to poo poo, and hard. All I really want is for the crash to happen on Strong Daddy's watch so the mouth breathing idiots that only ever politically respond to themselves getting directly hosed over don't have anyone else to blame. 30%-ish of the country are just lost causes and will gleefully blame it on someone darker than a paper bag, but Republican propaganda is gonna land really flat with people outside of the CHUD-o-sphere if he's actually in charge when everything he's done blows up. If they successfully kick the can down the road long enough that it ends up on someone else's watch there's a lot of really dumb people that will buy the bullshit smokescreen that he didn't actually do the damage he's done.
