#collapse

32 posts24 participants7 posts today

Il y a un demi-siècle (1972) que nous savons que la #croissance a ses limites.
Insouciants et grands adorateurs du tout-au-capitalisme à l'américaine, nous avons persévéré dans la gabegie #économique et le pillage #environnemental plutôt que de gérer proactivement la #décroissance.
Nous voilà aujourd'hui, non pas à la croisée des chemins, mais au pied du mur:

c'est le #Collapse ‼️

Yesss ✌️

Ah meeeerde, ça finit en #guerre mondiale ce genre de conneries humaines.

Bah, qui vivra verra...

“We have lots of bad economic policy in the world, but we’ve never seen anything this amateur or purposely destructive at the national level from a G7 economy,” says Gillezeau. “I think that there are pretty reasonable odds they cast themselves into another Great Depression, right?”

Toronto Star · Bruce Arthur: Donald Trump has pushed America into a golden age of stupid. Now’s Canada’s chance to be smartBy Bruce Arthur

i'd have A LOT more respect for the #collapse folks if you just said what you feel, which is you want the western world order to break before it breaks the biosphere.

ffs i even agree with that. you have any idea just how many people feel you on that?

BUT IT'S NOT A PLAN!

There are people who think Trump is smart.

“There has certainly been no piece of trade policy in my lifetime that is at this level of stupidity, right?” said Rob Gillezeau, an assistant professor of economic analysis and policy at the University of Toronto. “It’s not grounded in anything intelligent. Like, they’re kind of just like ignoring economics altogether.”

Toronto Star · Bruce Arthur: Donald Trump has pushed America into a golden age of stupid. Now’s Canada’s chance to be smartBy Bruce Arthur

bro see, this is exactly the problem i have with you guys lately. how often have we been thinking this in the last 40 years? last time because COVID?

why don't you just spit it out already and say that you wish for it to #collapse bc it obviously sucked for the environment? jesus christ.

and even then, systems can have multiple stable states? neo feudalism is one option for that?

Pretty interesting attempt at a minimal OS designed to run literally anywhere.

collapseos.org

> Winter is coming and Collapse OS aims to soften the blow. It is a Forth (why Forth?) operating system and a collection of tools and documentation with a single purpose: preserve the ability to program microcontrollers through civilizational collapse.

especially the #collapseaware-in-bio dudebros. you know that the bigger half the globe has lived though this since the beginning of industrial imperialism? you are not special. not even close. and you still have an 5-earth-overshoot-lifestyle.

preaching living-with-less while jetting from #collapse conference to #collapse conference...

you know who lives with less? 99% of humanity. ask sub-saharan africa about that one.

and with "i mean you #ClimateAction" i mean the white privileged dudebros who whined about their personal freedom during COVID while disabled people told them to wear a mask from day 1, who voted for jill stein when black ppl told them not to & the white privileged dudebro accelerationist who have exactly 0 to lose from #collapse but who won't shut the fuck up about it while everyone else loses their job.

why are these people in your movement. clean up your room, or slide into irrelevance.

Failed State watch: "In practice there will be nothing liberating about it. Over the two months since returning to the White House, Mr Trump will have brought America’s overall tariff level to its highest since the second world war, setting the country up for slower economic growth, higher inflation, more inequality and, quite possibly, fiscal trouble."

The Economist · Trump’s “Liberation Day” is set to whack America’s economyBy The Economist

America is dead. The exceptional nation that invented airplanes to semiconductors to the internet, is now a third world fascist dictatorship. The masses are fat and stupid. The political class corrupt geriatrics. The business class criminals.There is no hope. All that is left is Canada, Europe, Australia, NZ, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, and a few Latin American democracies.

Bangkok Post · Tower collapse puts builder in spotlightBy Philip J Cunningham

Occupied Korea is facing a demographic crisis, characterized by a record low fertility rate. This is leading to a shrinking and aging population, which is expected to cause economic collapse due to a reduced workforce and depleted pension funds. The country will also struggle to maintain its essential infrastructure due to lack of workers. Socially, this may cause loneliness and cultural decline.

DPRK is learning a bit of "Do nothing. Win." technique.
