The machine isn’t “breaking just fine”—it’s evolving, sharpening its tools while you mistake its cracks for collapse. It’s not holding society together; it’s bleeding it dry. You think people depend on this machine? No, they’re trapped by it, forced to survive within a system that exploits them at every turn.
And hunting? Spare me the tough-guy act. The system is already hunting us—through poverty, debt, and despair. Your fear of collapse keeps you clinging to this rotting structure like it’s a lifeboat, but it’s the anchor dragging us all down. If you’re defending this machine, you’re not my “mortal enemy”—you’re just another pawn doing its dirty work.
That's what the oligarch's think. It won't be the first time the powerful have ignorantly destroyed themselves.
Absolutely. It's in the math. A middle age existence could never support the number of people alive today. If Americans had to grow their own food, most would fail spectacularly. We depend profoundly on specialization and trade. We can't live as islands in this modern world.
There is nothing tough about hunting, and it's just what will be. You are ignorant trash who doesn't care who your ranting destroys.
