Europe is pretty fucked too. MAGA inspired political parties (many, if not all, sponsored by tge same people who support MAGA) with the same idiots or evil people you guys have in America in several countries… the future’s unfortunately looking VERY bleak. :/
Basically the world is fucked. Its bad only going to get worse I can only assume this is the start of a trend that is going to take a 80+ years to run its course… Fuck me
Yup. We were born just in time to see the world around us crumble from idiocy and vileness. It’s happening everywhere and looking at the newsat this point is just… exhausting. You are told to dustract yourself and find community - which is great! - but THIS is still the reality we are moving towards.
Unless there’s a pandemic of intelligence out of nowhere, it’s probably the end of the modern world in some soon-ish timeframe.
Although we are going through an extinction event, and I suppose if it’s one severe enough to kill anything over a certain size, humans will probably go along with it.

yeah, the modern world is mostly defined by full employment, which comes from technological progress. so unless there’s a new invention to kick something to start of the scale of the industrial revolution, yeah large-scale employment (with meaningful pay) and with it democracy are done for. intelligence isn’t gonna change anything about it unless it can bring said inventions.
maybe spaceflight can generate some jobs but i don’t think it would be enough, only a step. yeah, we’re heading for a new medieval age. better get cushy with it.

I think you’re being way too generous with that estimate there. We’re probably gonna be extinct before that
