The point is about a snowballing larger societal collapse, led by the US and UK. (But it will reach everywhere eventually.) If you and your friends are rich and dull enough, you can ostrich-hole it for a while yet. If you want to see the ca

It's part of a model update loop. If this theory is factual, are there any parts of your world/self-model that would be in conflict, and need updating to be more accurate? After updating your model, are there any other parts of yo
