And much more boring … and half the population will fight us about it too. We’ll all go down fighting and arguing with one another while our world burns and destroys us.
So many guns and nukes and you expect people to silently go down boringly? When shit hits the fan, people are gonna try their hardest to take the food and livable land for themselves and fight each other to the last man
I keep having that debate with my wife who keeps stating that nuclear war is inevitable and that we’re going to blow ourselves up.
Yes there is a chance of that happening … but my biggest argument for it not happening is … MONEY. If the world blows up, it will destroy the majority of the wealth of millionaires and billionaires who all rely on an interconnected web of communications and finances and a global market in order to justify their wealth. If the world falls apart, the majority of their wealth goes down with it. They don’t care about who lives or who dies or even if millions will get killed … but they do care about losing their money.
And to me, that is the biggest reason why we will most likely not see any nuclear war any time soon.
So if there is not going to be any nuclear armageddon, the only other thing that will happen is a slow gradual degradation of our civilization over the next hundred or two hundred years as we slowly cook to death … while we argue with one another about it all.
Hundred to 200 years? You’re one optimistic person.
We’re hitting major climate tipping points within ten years and there’s no brakes on this train. Things will go from “this sucks but it’s bearable” to “global famine wars” in short order.
It’s okay, the apocalypse is going to be much slower and more painful.

Humanity, has a long history of not realizing mistakes until long after it’s been done.
It all started with some douchebag fish thinking that dry sand looked comfortable
You see, what it was is that the sea was getting crowded and ancient fishbro just needed like five minutes of peace and fucking quiet…
