Is this even a possibility? It’s happened throughout history several times before
What degree of fucked would things be in your country, and would you be able to survive?

"collapse" isnt a great word for large scale trends because in civilizational terms anything less than ~100 years is a "collapse" but to humans thats multiple generations and it feels painfully slow,

i think we're in collapse right now and theres still tons of opportunity at the individual level to get rich (maybe more than ever), but that opportunity is zero-sum and comes in the form of scamming the average person

instead of inventing a new useful product or drilling a new oil well, today to get rich youd probably create a platform to trade options contracts on a leveraged prediction market that bets on whether zelensky will wear a suit next week. there is almost no real growth

but money will keep getting printed and so you can still get rich

Holy shit this.
Our leaders are only alive because of normgroid distractions like sports and booze, and the working class can sill afford to house and feed itself (barely.)
Modern life has fucking nothing going for it.

If the power went out tomorrow I’d bet 50+% of people would be dead within the week, no bullshit.

Just think about most people
>power out
>water stops
>what water you can get is most likely contaminated
>filth accumulates
>illnesses begin popping up
Most people would probably drink dirty water and die.
There is always a meme of raider hordes but how many people do you know that can even run 5km right now? You think they’re going to become super raider when they’re calorie deprived, dehydrated, and sick?

mobs of armed people going door to door through suburbs, demanding food, (including tender children to cannibalize) from terrified inhabitants as the logistics of food supply breaks down. I foresee dying surrounded by a few of their corpses in the smoking embers of our houses....
