  • Being in the US isn’t giving you better data, if anything it makes you emotionally attached and blind to the obvious. Humans are the same. We often know our friends a lot better than they know themselves. I understand you don’t want this to happen, but not wanting it doesn’t mean it won’t happen.

    There is massive historic precedence. The roman empire to name one. Except never before has an empire collapse overlapped with the fastest recorded ecocide and environmental collapse.

    You may not be aware of all the datasets I’m aware of. It sounds like doomer, but it is data based so it unfortunately just is doom. Hard to grasp, I know, it’s why people with terminal illnesses also stay around as long as possible.

    The USA will be there in 10 years, but it won’t be called that, and won’t have any of the respect and glory it still has some of today. It’s not a country. It’s more like a european union that falls apart as soon as things start getting tough. Your very demented pedophile president is personally directing FEMA to withhold disaster relief to blue states. That can’t last another 10 years, let alone 5. Not with the disasters scheduled in the next 3 years. States will simple secede from the union, and as resources will be scarce, war will be inevitable.

    Never before in history has the ruling empire by both capital and military might waged a war against it’s own people, whilst very carelessly trying to light a match to the middle east and south america and soon parts of europe, whilst also diplomatically and economically alienate all its former allies with erratic tariffs, whilst ignoring both its own domestic rule of law as well as the international one. Smarter dictators started wars with foreign nations as a way to unify their people and bolster nationalism, this regime is only trying to make the oligarchs who installed it wealthier.

    10 years is a short time for a nation to collapse, true. But you didn’t start collapsing today either, my American friend. I wish you all the best.


  • 90% is not in use for a reason. Even if 5% can still be started for agriculture, nature doesn’t instant-produce food. Field cultivation often takes multiple years.

    You’re forgetting the US is no longer a democracy. This is the last emperor on the throne right now, running a kleptocracy to the tune of billions. To keep control he installed the certifiable most incompetent people in his ‘cabinet’. None of these care about the country or its people.

    They were installed by a foreign influence and their job is to dismantle the country. This level of burocratic incompetence will reign till the end of the nation, probably in less than 10 years.

    2045 is bad for the entire world, the US will be far sooner.

    They are an insanely divided nation in the middle of an empire level collapse. They are a violent people. Their civil war which has started with ICE wil only get worse, their oilgargy only making life less tennable for so many.

    You will have riots and strikes, and essentially just people shooting each other. It’s already happening but tuned out of the media for now. But it’ll get worse, and at some point a prolific tiktoker or youtuber will livestream something nearby and that will be an accelerator.

    There are already thousands of americans that have to choose between getting medical care or food. Thousands more that have to choose between feeding themselves or their children.

    There is no scenario in which the USA survives the next 10 years.






  • I look forward to the day a documentary will be made about the 5 people/bots who serially post on Lemmy, possibly unaware they won’t be able to sell their account for karma, and what the people behind them look like/who they work for.

    “Da, good comrade, now do the one with the jealous girl looking at the boyfrend checkout other chick”

    “What caption?”

    “Something about Linux distros”

    “Ok, and now this one”

    “But this is straight from .ml propaganda stack, should we?”

    “JUST POST IT”

    It’s truly insane what these accounts pump out in “content” every day, and how it keeps getting upvoted.

    Mostly because that documentary would mean the fediverse became actually relevant.

    TLDR; Fediverse, lemmy particularly has very lazy bot detection (it’s basically on the people reporting them to mods, and then mods willing to do something), and is in the middle of being overrun by them, and their agendas are questionable.







  • More than ever before, life is truly what you make of it.

    The very affluent can live among the very poor. The darkest skin tones with the lightest. The happiest among the depressed.

    Beware of garbage in and garbage out.

    Your thoughts will become your words, those words will become your actions, and those actions will become your world.

    It is truly a blank piece of paper.

    (Unless you wear certain tshirts, bring your children to school in the usa, etc)

    The world is changing very rapidly, and the future will be a rough ride for many, but the art is to understand that there are things that you can change and things you must accept.

    And it’s a rare show. We’ve never had environmental collapse overlap with the fall of an empire before on Earth. Only death is certain (yes, even for you Elon)
