Collapse by definition is not gradual
- dwroberts 7mo agoGo watch a big chimney stack being demolished. It hangs around in the air for a long time, before it is suddenly gone. But it’s definitely collapsing the whole time.
- unethical_ban 7mo agoThis is really avoiding the obvious point being made. Here's a other analogy to avoid your criticism: if a plane runs out of gas midair, it doesn't immediately crash, but it's going to.
- jmye 7mo agoAhh, good, parsing words. I can tell you have a lot of useful and interesting things to say. So tired of people trying to pass off pseudointellectual pedanticism as useful or additive insight.
