Considering how much money has been poured into AI, once the bubble bursts it will be a nightmare. And then they will introduce CBDC (digital concentration camp as salvation)

The main thing is that the train is going faster than expected, even if its engine fails due to overheating.

Would be hilarious if AI killed us all as foretold but it was the bubble and resulting depression that did it and not the actual tech

You are greatly underestimating the coming depression, because it will eventually be followed by a digital dictatorship and the collapse of our civilization.

You don't understand a global resource like information. Why would a market collapse in America cause digital serfdom in Europe? What would compel any other nation to follow in the steps of a collapsing superpower?

Further, let's say that you're right - what steps or actions would follow after the collapse? Who would enforce any of this shit? The billionaires who are the only ones who lost money and power? The politicians who are suddenly not getting paid by those same billionaires?

Fuck it, let the bubble break. Fuck the shareholders. Let it break down during Trump. Show the MAGA he only brings ruin.

My bet is a Q4 26 or Q1 27 bubble pop, so it happens just after US midterms so republicans can blame Dems, because their base is dumber than dirt and will greedily gobble up the party propaganda, no matter what their lying eyes say.

you absolutely overestimate what little understanding or control the tRump fascist regime has on economic issues (amongst other)... the timing you suggest would be a master class in planning... Mango Mussolini's only mastery is in diddling kids

You're incredibly naive if you're limiting your view of what is possible to only what trump can do, and not considering what his billionaire cronies can try to do, too.

I have yet to see them doing anything smart...
