A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit.

It is absolutely incredible that the only thing that outweighs their malice is their gross incompetence, which for better or worse may be our saving grace in undoing this mess

Automakers had to lobby for this to happen, he’s either a moron or he’s running a racket… oh wait it’s both!

I respect your optimism, I truly hope you’re right. I don’t think we’re locked in for human extinction just yet, but we have a lot of work to do as a society to avoid that.

Spoiler alert, we’re fucked. That’s what the assessment would have said at least.

You’re right. If the government did not already have a history of essentially human trafficking innocent people, I would be much less inclined to care about this

Once again, Gen X left out of the conversation when they still make up a large percentage of the workforce lol.

Being a millennial in the workplace right now is giving me whiplash. Boomers are essentially the old guard and their ways of running business are going the way of the dodo, though I was brought up in that climate and sort of got used to it. While work environments had a tendency to be toxic, I did find some merits in their approach.

Gen Z is almost like the polar opposite reaction to boomer workplace culture. While I think going away from that is a good thing, I also think there have been overcorrections. The culture clash is noticeable and the fact that the old guard seems to be ignoring it only adds to the challenge.

What “illegal immigrants” in their right mind would be out partying at an after hours night club with everything going on? I wouldn’t be surprised if there were a few, but 100? This reeks of steamed hams. 100 migrants localized entirely in this illegal nightclub, in this political climate? I would like to see the evidence

Is that good?

Just like Gen Z fucked up by being in elementary school or even diapers instead of buying property in 2008. You’ve goofed by not building factories instead of eating, where’s your grind mentality?

I could hear a handful of podcasts out there saying this unironically. Society is cooked

They just don’t want to acknowledge it’s happening already because that would drive markets further down. It’s happening.

I don’t particularly want to watch the world burn, but if it’s out of my hands you might as well pass me some popcorn 😂

This guy literally sourced all of his claims from a fake economist who was actually an anagram of his own name. I wish I was joking

But, but.. I thought we were bringing industry back! I thought we were STRONG and POWERFUL and everyone was going to be riding on bald eagles with gold bars in their pockets under Trump 🙄

This timeline is ass.

A recent study performed by actuaries, not environmental scientists, predicted a possible 50% global drop in GDP by 2070-2090. 50%! Scientists have been sounding the alarm for decades, but you know it’s bad when actuaries are doing the same thing. When the alternative is certain collapse, the alternatives become priceless. No matter what happens at this point, global society cannot exist in its current form in the future.

You know what they say about broken clocks

It is very important to remain sharp and swift in a time like this

Now this is epic

Chat, are we cooked? (Yes)
