This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.


Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.

How about denying climate change?

I know, we have tried this since many decades and it hasn't worked so far. Maybe we have to deny reality harder.

I used to be an accelerationist. I mean, I still am, but I used to be one.

Got plenty of that, see the YouTube comments for any local weather forecast.
