There are entire books written about this. People here just don’t want to write one for you

They weren’t talking about YOU.

Fox News was on satellite in Britain for more than 15 years.

Also, you have TalkTV and GB News now.

But England literally has a King

Honestly, that’s just a very responsible thing to do. Good for you

Yes, we know…

ABSOLUTELY. And that first movie was before the nuclear war, so it’s literally all about an energy crisis. People feel so comfortable in their modern world that they seem to not be able to imagine just how close to losing it all they are

You joke, but if you met anybody that lives in Syria about a decade ago, they would tell you this is exactly what it looks like. It’s what it looked like for people about a year and a half ago in Palestine, and it’s what it looked like to Soviet citizens in 1989. So keep making jokes, don’t believe it, whatever. But it IS happening

I believe “complete” is relative in this case. Collapse is a process and not an event, people seem to miss that a lot. I think a lot of the reason why people only see it in retrospect is because they’re all waiting to see some big glorious fire ball. But the truth is, collapse is mostly boring, and then concerning, and then terrifying.

Buddy, collapse is happening RIGHT NOW. You’re in it. Whatever Mad Max post apocalyptic vision you have? Throw it out. What is happening right now outside your home at this moment, this is what collapse looks like.

They do if you use the right accelerant!

They are happening. There would be a lot less in the underground if it was some thing you heard about. But real work is being done. People being moved for their safety, certain apparatus of the state sustaining sabotage damage, etc. Things are being done.

Yes, absolutely agreed

If I just let my dog go out and be free and wild, he would be dead within a week. He’s 12 lbs, doesn’t know the difference between poison and food, and thinks he’s bigger than most predators. There’s no such thing as a Dachshund in the wild. We have been domesticated by dogs and cats just as much as we have domesticated them. Our whole cultural trajectory exists because of that. The story of humanity is the story of domestication. You’re deluded.

My last HR rep looked like Ms. Frizzle

As an American, I can assure you, there absolutely was a deliberate and systemic call to eradicate Native Americans. They were (and often still are) completely dehumanized (there was a period of time in America where bounty hunters could be paid for “Genuine Indian Scalps”. It’s also still happening, it just seems like nobody cares anymore.

Take the border for example. It’s the biggest thing that nobody will shut up about. The border. Border. Border. Border. But what do they fail to mention every single time? Who’s home are they building that wall through? Who’s land is that?

The Spanish were appalled by some of Columbus’s actions, sure, but withing 50 years that cranked that dial up! Or did you think all of those missions and plantations built themselves

Thats a very propertarian view of a non-propertarian issue. You have what you use. What you don’t, you don’t. If you leave your house vacant for too long a period of time, then somebody might take up residence. But if people don’t just move into your home while you’re on vacation now, why would they in a hypothetical system where the concept of property is radically different and presumably everybody has a home? Unless you’re talking about second homes? Because that’s a non starter. Nobody needs more than one home.

Same, dude. Same.
