What do you predict the next happening will be? So far there have only been two happenings in the 21st century:

>9/11
>COVID19

That's it. Everything else has been a nothingburger. What do you think the next happening will look like? I imagine it will be 15 years before something happens again

Not sure if that really counts. Recessions happen all the time, even bad ones are still nothingburgers.

I agree with the other anon. 2008 didn't count. It was right when I was graduating college and I still found a job without much effort. Nothing happened besides the economy getting worse. Our way of life didn't change like with 9/11 and terrorism paranoia and over the top security shit or covid and permanently working from home.

Even covid was a nothingburger. The only reason it had any impact on anyone's life is the governments colossally bad response to it. If not for the news media you would never have even known the virus existed.

Someone will use a nuke, it probably won't be a strong one and it will hit a low population area. Then other countries will use them too and then we get a MAD situation and all die

It wasn't a nothing burger because it drastically affected the life of pretty much everyone on the planet for literal years and permanently altered the state of the world. The reason is unimportant and trying to argue that the reason matters in any way shows a fundamental lack of understanding of what a "happening" is. Shut your fool mouth, sit down, and listen.

>All die
Vastly overestimating the power of nukes again aren't we? And yes South Americans are people too yet were too irrelevant to get nuked

Nothing ever happens fags always remind me of this song. They project their own boring lives onto the rest of the world and act like if anything doesn't personally affect them that it doesn't count. And the thing is that eventually something will affect you and no one else will care much about it for that same reason. A loved one close to you might die from cancer, you might lose your job, your girlfriend might cheat on you, you might get in a car accident, etc. And the rest of the world will be just as indifferent towards your own personal tragedy.

I swear, It's like this entire generation became even worse narcissists than the boomers and that's impressive.

Another thing that makes that song particularly funny is that it was written over 40 years ago. So not only is this attitude nothing new, but even back then it was mocked as the naive myopic worldview of small boring people who lack empathy.

So basically a happening is the media making a big deal about nothing? If that's your definition then a happening can happen whenever the jews want for no reason at all.

Like this bullshit riot in LA right now. Trump is on track to deport fewer people than Biden. This entire thing is a media fabrication. But because they show pictures of ICE on the news every night retards think its real life somehow.

Based on historical cycle models:
>Within 5 years
Democrat swing (they get house/Senate/etc)
Mild recession
Major political scandal (bribe/sex/etc)
Air war or blockade
Crime or drug wave
>10 years
Major recession
Low tier ground war (similar to ISIS war)
Republicans get house/Senate back
Major natural disaster
AI backlash
>20 years
Medium ground war (Iraq scale invasion).
Left shifts from identity politics to environmentalism as it's core message
Right shifts from populism to tech-fututism as it's core message
Republican party implodes (as neocon center dies off) becomes the independent party
Some new technology comes up (maybe asteroid mining or something ) causing a economic bubble on the scale of dotcom
>40 years out
Major border war breaks out (India Pakistan maybe)
China collapses into warlords as resource depletion and population decline reaches critical mass.
Full backlash against woke comes into effect, everyone becomes "fuck your feeling" edgy.
Green tech finally reaches all levels of society
A new-quasi religion is formed (probably a mix of practical spiritual practices like meditation + science + protestant ethics)
>80 years out
Fascism under a new environmentalist name and ethic code sweeps the nation
The new religion takes over, the old bureaucratic college educated "deep state" and elites are replaced.
America become a quasi-fascist state
Third world war breaks out, but with bad demographics it is indecisive
Supranational unions start forming (with the western powers forming on block).
>160 years
Molecular compilers come out, production is in the hands of individuals , fair currency collapses to crypto (which has worked out the kinks by then). This gives bands of people power over centralized states.
Neo-fuedalism people start to associate with their local region then supranational unions
>320 years
US empire enters is "fall of Rome scenario" since molecular compilers give band of people military grade weapons

The fact is that the middle east has always been in wars. Nothing ever happens is a largely true western philosophy. Very little of what happens changes people's lives. I can easily take your argument and spin it around by saying that most things in the world just don't affect the average person in a major way. Prices go up and down businesses might die but the average Joe generally just has his quality of life bumped up or down by most shit going on. If you can live your life without watching the news and have it be completely the same then maybe what's on the news isn't relevant and it is accurate the say that "Nothing ever happens". You are literally the old bill hicks joke. It used to be television now it's social media. It's all over exaggerated.
