SGGeorwellWe don’t have room in the carbon budget for a world war.
Why are you under the impression that there is a world war coming? What specific events? I’m genuinely asking.
The global empire of capital is trapped in two losing wars of attrition and keeps on desperately escalating in both cases?
Why are you asking me a question? I just asked you one. Why would that instigate a world war? I’m asking you because I don’t know, not because I’m trying to argue with you.
Honestly, I wrote my comment with a questioning tone because I wasn’t sure if your original comment was being sarcastic or something. I guess people don’t understand that this Iran war is much more serious than Vietnam and Afghanistan put together, on top of the Ukraine war still ongoing
Ok, so the strait doesn’t open. Who joins whose side?
The line has already been drawn. The only meaningful wildcards are the Turks and the Egyptians. The question you should be asking is how long until the gulf monarchies run out of unperishable food? That hits much sooner than the Global fertilizer crisis, we won’t feel the business end of that until harvest season in the northern hemisphere
And then do we all die?
Now you’re starting to get the gravity of the situation
I’m going to kill myself to avoid this all.
You strike me as a hasbara troll, not someone who’s actually depressed. I’m not good at talking people out of suicide anyways.
If you really are thinking of ending your life, talk about it with a trusted friend instead of some assholes on the internet like myself
I don’t know what that is.
I spent the last 72 days sober, and for fucking what? To starve to death due to a Trump war? I’m not depressed really. Just tired. The world is ending and I’m supposed to go to work? Fuck that. If I’m going to die I’m going to do it on my own. I’m not going to let the government cull me when the food runs out.
This comment does seem for real, I’ll bite
Hasbara is the name for the Israeli propaganda machine, especially the paid influencers
What I’m describing is in the direction of the worst-case scenario, there are many other scenarios that could unfold - nobody knows.
I personally think suicide is THE difficult moral and philosophical question, I will certainly not be claiming there is an easy answer and I don’t personally like the standard responses like “permanent solution to a temporary problem”
Why did you choose to make the difficult choice to go sober?
It doesn’t matter. I’m going to the store to get whiskey. Probably play some Apex and then I’m doing it. Fuck this, I’m done.
It’s a dark time. I don’t judge you. DMs open if you want to talk
a_gee_dizzleHey man, the war could end before things get bad. No one knows at this point. At least stay alive long enough to see how things shake up. You never know you could be pleasantly surprised.
