Here's another post, but it's not about the apocalypse, but about the life of an obedient citizen in this future. Take a look, maybe you'll find it interesting, but you'll need to read everything carefully -- https://lemmy.world/post/36867409

I'm curious how long you've been waiting for the apocalypse. Honestly, I've been waiting for it since 2015.

Remember, a garden will do you more good than a gun.

Garden won't do you any good if someone with a gun can take it from you.

I was actually kinda waiting for that. Both is best. Peak survivalism is a neighborhood that coordinated their gardening efforts and will all shoot anyone who steals their crops.

Me, living in a city with a a basil plant as only garden and a cat as only weapon: guess I’ll just hope for the best!

Thats true now though, and the taxes you pay subsidize the thug with the gun.

Well, it’s even better to take care of it not alone.

Nah. I think I'll do fine with just a gun. Plus whoever finds me can use itvtoo! Gift that keeps on giving.

But muh power fantasy!

The idea of society collapsing seems so far fetched at this point. Humans are inherently social creatures and have lived together since the dawn of time. People think it would just become the purge or something, but when we look at it when other societies collapsed they just keep trotting along through the hard times.

It's going to be a bit difficult to keep 'trotting along' without food or water. But hey, 2030 is a few years off still, so how about an even closer apocalypse? Did you know there's now a chance for a double blue ocean event in the next ten months?

All you have to think is the Inuit and desert dwellers have done it since the begining of time. Its just extreme changes, but they worked with what they had.

"trotting along" throughout history often involved routine cannibalism and slavery, and has never involved the environmental catastrophe we're barrelling headfirst into

I just wanna live long enough to play gta6 and eat pizza rolls.
