Who is going to allow this to happen?
It is actually working as designed.
But yeah it does look like the abuses will never stop. So it is possible that US will just collapse from within like USSR due to inability to provide its population with necessities like housing, healthcare and education.
When covid happened some commentary was going around it could be US Chernobyl type event.
It seemed clowny back then but things have really taken a huge dive since then.
I guess when Chernobyl happened, plebs in USSR never imagined that the prole crushing machine would collapse within half a decade.
Having lived through a few coup detats, I don’t think the decline just started. People have been saying we’re doomed since early A.D.s. There are way too many ideological ways to live life. To each their own, but in the end our own intrinsic values necessitate valuation of things and power. TL;DR: this is happening everywhere, all at once.
Nukes? I’m cool with it, at least I’ll know we’ll all go together. I would rather fear a miserable life and play my best move against it, even when it’s a minor rebellion compared to what it’s fighting against.
