      And they’ll all burn regardless. Me and you as well. The money and all it meant will burn with us. All these stupid little arguments about class lines are all without value in the face of our self made apocalypse.

      You’ll just have to pardon me. I’ve been paying close attention to the actual biggest, most important news in human history that so many seem to want to downplay or ignore. It’s basically already over and the wealthy are still stomping the gas on it to extract more wealth and power.

      That’s money for you. Our stupid ass ape brains just couldn’t handle the money game we invented. At least the wealthy will be suffering too as they are left to fend for themselves.

        Hey collapse-aware friend,

        I definitely get the frustration of having that level of awareness and looking around at others discussing things that seem pointless in comparison. Especially early on, if it happens to be a recent thing for you.

        That being said, people aren’t going to suddenly stop living their lives because of where we’re personally at, and saying doomer stuff unprompted is generally just unproductive overall.

        Plus, the sooner everyone is aware, the faster collapse will happen. So might as well let people enjoy what they have now. As you said, it’s basically already over.

        Personally, I enjoy giving shitty, brutally honest answers to job applications for jobs I don’t actually want, to be particularly cathartic. Because who cares about companies.
