No I’m not catastrophising.

The world is slowly lurching towards a fully fascist led America, India, Hungary, Russia, Netherlands, Germany, Italy and Argentina.

Instead people are either ignorant or blaming wokeism for their problems.

I have no clue what to do and this is literally a car crash in slow motion.

I’m despondent because I’m going to be crushed under the boot when the time comes and my morals get in the way of my survival instinct.

Humans are repeating the mistakes of the past. It’s just so anxiety inducing.

      Joke? Some people say that the Mayans were right and the world did end in 2016; it’s just that it takes a long time for a system this big to fully stop functioning

        That still doesn’t make sense. The world didn’t end in 2016. We are still here.

        Nothing magical happened in 2016 that hasn’t been happening for the last 50 years. It’s a slow grind to the bottom.

        You could argue that 2008 was the end of the world or 2001. Both events has led the economic strife you’re seeing today which is really what collapse looks like. Both those events supersede anything that happened in 2016.

        If anything this is a self fulfilling prophecy and nothing to do with Mayans. It’s a silly argument to make.

  • Organize. The old world is dying, the new world is yet to be born. We are standing at a tipping point not only regarding climate change, but also regarding the future of humanity. It is up to us, how we act and how the new world will look like.

    And even if we loose: Its harder to deport and/or kill you, if a bunch of other people got your back.

    Woke is a hijacked term by the facists it literally means to be socially aware of the problems faced by different people in a society

    About the only palliative measure I can think about is to disengage from society completely, as it’s no longer possible to correct it, and go live in the middle of nowhere until the planet eventually goes to hell. Or until society decides to go fully nihilistic and self-terminate.

    If only this was that simple. A “Democratic country” doesn’t just wake up one day vote for a bad guy and become fascist. This has been happening all over the world for last few decades. All the past politician created few policies out of fear, out of ignorance, out of greed, and out of malice that edged us towards this. And now most of the people have accepted this blatant abuse of our freedom, our privacy, our democracy as just part of life. There is nothing that anyone can do to stop this. Because we don’t bother reading EULA because we don’t demand the companies the governments to do better we just sign away our rights our freedom because we have better things to do.

    I feel you, and with climate change it’s not like we can just escape them and go else where their stupidity will be the death of us all.

    The masses are asses.

    Hi, Why do you think India is a fascist country? I believe its the most democratic country ever. However looking forward to your perspective.

    I have hope for Germany. The past few weeks we had enormous protests(over 3m people protested in total) and multiple petitions against fascists and the AfD(the party that literally want to deportate everyone who isn’t “German”(this means even if you have a German passport, but came from another country youre going to get deportated)) had blown up. Their youth organisation is now officially a right wing extremists organisation. I still have hope, that we may save our country before it’s to late.
