Regional collapses have happened. This will be the first global collapse.
If it happens, it will be much earlier than you hope, as millions, then tens of millions, then hundreds of millions force their way across borders, and fascist governments ride that into power and then start a global thermonuclear war. The refugees will only be fleeing crop failure and increasingly murderous kleptocratic government.
It is already starting. Lots of governments are flirting with dictatorship, and many have got there already. US and Brazil have drawn back a hairsbreadth from the brink, but for how long?

- lazide 4y agoI'm not saying that you're wrong (or right). There is a LOT of scary stuff going on right now, for a lot of people. I'm just asking you to slow down a bit, and take care of how you are now. Otherwise, you'll never get to the point of any of the other stuff mattering anyway - and likely make it a lot worse for yourself in the meantime.
