Kunstler's partisanship does get tiresome, but I though his latest diatribe was rather funny, so I feel it's worth a read. It seems he has gone from a registered Democrat to some sort of far-right...

Kunstler's partisanship does get tiresome, but I though his latest diatribe was rather funny, so I feel it's worth a read. It seems he has gone from a registered Democrat to some sort of far-right...
If it makes you feel any better, Hungary is on the same path and has been for decades probably, ever since the neoliberal economists from the US came over here as advisors and started dismantling and...
Umair being his usual hyperbolic, acerbic self, this time he puts the boot into Britain and Boris Johnson in particular. A highly entertaining take on how utterly destructive his three short years of...
To me, Trump's election was no great surprise. He represents everything America really values, greed, unbridled wealth, narcissism, brashness, etc...
In fact, even before the election, if most...
To be fair, it's not just an American thing, plenty of places around the world are just as bad or even worse in terms of unbridled greed and capitalism. China, for one, or Russia.
It seems to be a...
An excellent summary of what ails America, why society is collapsing, why the average person can't make ends meet and why the antiwork movement is so important and gaining ground.

This is the collapse thread. I'm talking about devolution not evolution :ttr:
Sadly, I fully agree. Scary times we live in. Looks like the 1930s all over again.
Interesting timelines, thanks.
Personally, I don't expect a major worldwide cataclysm and collapse as in the end of Atlantis, rather a local civilizational collapse and reset as in the fall of...
I don't know anything about Deagle, except that Orlov and now Kunstler referred to the forecast on that website and they are two commentators I take seriously when it comes to the topic of collapse. ...
Pretty much, although I think there are a few important takeaways:
- Our energy predicament is coming to a head, particularly in Europe and China. Germany might freeze this winter and starve the...
HNY everyone!
JHK's forecast for 2022 is an annual tradition, this one looks like it's quite spot on, even if I disagree with some of his points. Still, fun to read.
...
Yeah, I also watched many of his videos. Best source on China, along with his buddy, Laowhy86
I also have friends who have lived in China for years and they pretty much concur with everything he...
This really rings true. Sadly, it's not just Britain and the US, unfortunately many other societies are infected with this sort of imbecility (looking at you Brazil, India and South Africa), but it...
Good points DT.
I'm not a huge fan of any of the late night show hosts. I'll make an exception for Graham Norton, who I think is by far the best one out there, not least because he is apolitical...
Well, I have to agree with Aragorn, this has become a bit too political for my taste. Can we please keep the topic of conversation around the main theme of collapse (which is the only reason I...
Bill Maher is criticised both by the left and right, which tells me, he's doing something right.
A lot of democrats won't actually come on his show, that is because he is an old-school liberal,...
I'm afraid the time for Anglo-American humility has now come and I don't cherish it one bit. It is likely to resemble the period of "Great Humiliation" in Chinese History, which lasted from the Opium...
That might be a worldwide number, at least that's the number I remember seeing about 10-15 years ago, I imagine that hasn't changed by much. I'm not sure how many of those are in the US, but I...
Thanks Fred.
I also appreciate your viewpoint, especially with you being in a Southern State, that's really quite valuable.
I'll correct myself there, it's not the individuals who carry guns...
I get your point, but we're talking about a far-right takeover or coup here. Once that is completed, there would be a purge, so that everyone who isn't sufficiently faithful to the cause, would be...
