Nothing makes sense anymore, the entire world just feels fake and incredibly tense. I wish I could go back in time and ask the Romans and Byzantines if they had a similar feel before their empires' collapse. People say "don't watch the news" but we're all just passengers on a derailing train, and it's hard not to look on the window. What are we headed towards? Will things get better afterwards? When will things make sense again? When will people be kind again?
Good discussions yesterday, wanna keep it up. Favorite takes so far:
>Everything is always collapsing and being remade in different forms. Chaotic reformation is the constant in history. It is easy to lament that things do not remain the same but hard to adapt to what is now. Are things going to be difficult? Absolutely. Will it be as bad as the thirty years war or the mongolian invasion, or the fall of Ur? Hell, maybe. Probably not, though. People on an individual level aren't nearly as dangerous as they used to be.
>ask the Romans and Byzantines if they had a similar feel before their empires' collapse. You generally can't pinpoint the moment an empire collapses at the time. Some warn of a collapse generations before things start going bad, others deny a collapse has happened even after the barbarians have looted the palace and set fire to the vineyards. By the time most well-learned people of the empire know that a collapse has occurred, it has already been replaced by a successor empire (or descended into tiny warring kingdoms)
Whitepills welcome. We can navigate the world together.
>When will people be kind again? People have never been kind you moron. I dunno what fairy-tale bullshit about the world you've believed up to this point, but the way the world is now is how it's always been. There's no such thing as fair, and the sooner you get that into your head the sooner you can begin acting like a real adult instead of whining on Any Forums like a faggot.

It's going be very real and almost a test of endurance, but there will be fun, bravery and good times too. Be strong and prep well, The fake times are ending, this was a small period of humanity.

Op is demoralization shill restarting a second thread after being called out
No because I made a typo, take your meds you obviously spent every waking hour on this board.

I don't mind this take, but we never lived in a world of such dissonance. At least, not that I know of. That's why I wonder about other sunset eras, if people lived in the same sort of dissonance over the state of their nations.

agreed user. something changed when the pandemic hit. collective shock, collective awakening, i have no fucking idea what it is but i know i feel it, i know you feel it, i know everyone feels it whether or not they choose to admit it. what we are heading towards is most likely a new world restructuring. without borders. right now we're transitioning away from an old/dead world. it's going to be gradual but unlike anything seen before in the span of humanity history-- the fall of romans, as history depicts was more or less overnight. this will be drawn out because of old ways clutching tightly to dissolving pearls. the wealth disparity has reached such extremes that it's actually impossible to move forward anymore. and humanity kind of depends of progress for survival. without it, as a whole, we are worthless. old method corporations will be torn apart, probably through falling profits(or revolution) and new method corporations will grow in place. chances are in the future, if work is still a thing, we'll probably be working for a company halfway across the world. and it'll be for maybe a few hours out of the day. the 9-5 waste needs to be condensed in order for progress to be rejuvenated. wasting away for 6 hours browsing your phone and working for 2 hours is just stupid. technology is not waiting around. its growing exponentially. and archaic systems are just simply refusing to adapt-- education is a big one that needs to evolve, but the education that most of us were brought up will cease to exist, since now you can access nearly anything your mind desires within a few clicks. why bother spending months having someone explain it to you? then you look at companies, especially tech companies, who tout to their customers how worthy their product is for digital communication but demand their employees (also customers) to return in office. this dichotomy of foolishness has been exposed, on top of lack of progress it just no longer makes sense, as you said.

Wealth disparity always runs in cycles. It's directly proportional to populism, which usually acts to resolve it. Look at the Huey Long/New Deal era, it took an intentional wealth distribution to calm down the populace. Not many people realize Depression-Era America was headed towards massive civil strife until FDR came in.
I get the digital think, both of us here, being on Any Forums get that. But the fact is that the vast majority can't into internet beyond Facebook and Instagram. Automation has to be intentionally stifled to give people jobs like any Stellaris playthrough.

Sometimes I really think this is true. The last 80 years are statistically an anomaly in human history in terms of prosperity and peace for the average person.

>we never lived in a world of such dissonance we didn't, but it has existed before. understand that we were lucky to experience the world we did, because most did not get to

Because the tribe perverted it to serve themselves and ruined the European utopia.

Uncurbable levels of terminal retardation. No amount of cyberbullying can fix you + ESL

Of course not when you've only be around for the last 12 years.

This is what's going to happen. Balkanization. Here in Canada, I reckon Alberta and Saskatchewan will team up once shit hits the fan and they get tired of the Liberal Cronies. If it happens, I will leave Ontario and go help the Albertans, even if it means death.

can you provide other examples? genuinely want to learn

>I don't mind this take, but we never lived in a world of such dissonance You didn't because you're a young faggot that thinks his 20-something coddled years on the planet make him a man. You're a child and you know nothing of the world.

I have plenty going on but all this shit just puts a damper on everything. Should i just stop looking at the news? Is it that simple?
