Hot and cold weather, as well as viruses, have existed since the beginning of mankind.

Every currently living Coli poster will be dead in 2100 which I don't like to think about

Y'all some depressing ass mafukkers yeesh
100% which is why ignorance is bliss

Knowing comes with a burden. The industrialists that got us here are long dead and they lived it up in excess to our detriment. Our impending Doom is easy to forecast. There's only 2 things to do ignore it and hit the breaking point full throttle or feel like some of us do and brace for impact. We can't pump the brakes anymore. We passed that point. There will 100% be catastrophic weather events that massacre depopulate and scramble humans in ways we have never heard of.

The last time I felt like this strongly I wrote in 2012 on the coli about a plague coming from China. I don't claim to see the future but I can say that I have had strong intuition about it all my life and it makes me a pessimist.

There will still be people around, but civilization will be in decline by then.

You'll have a smaller population of people with a lower standard of living basically just trying to survive climate change as best they can.

Actually everytime a decline in population takes place from mass extinction events e.g the black plague , first and second world.war, quality of life actually went up because demand for a work force would far outstrip the supply.

I'd assume some adaptation against climate change would be implemented and mass migration towards the most stable regions still viable for living in, but if that were to happen planet's population would have probably be declined to between 2-3 billion.

and 90% of every living creature to exist on this planet is extinct. do you think we can beat those odds?

there's a 90% chance we will die as a species

There will be animals and plants that evolve to take over. I think humans will make it. When WW3 pops off, it will affect mostly the most industrialized nations. For example, a lot of battery tech we will need lives in Latin America and African land. If they're desperate enough, China will square up against America and the Euro zone to get it. The last major deposits of oil are in Africa and West Asia too. Theyll kill eachother trying to get these resources. I just pray that they drop the nukes on THEIR countries and leave Africa and South America alone. WWII was fought so Germany could expand on the same scale as Britain and France did. They wanted African land too, the Japanese wanted China and a piece of America. They wanted the gold, oil, labor and metals to feed further industrialization that these regions had. WWII ended formal imperialism and that aggressive colonialism that had been going on since the euros developed advanced compasses, canned goods, and the other kinds of tech they needed to be able to travel across the pacific and Atlantic. The blood that was shed was largely in Asia and Europe. So if ww3 pops off it will (hopefully) only decimate the populations in those territories and leave Africa and Latin America alone. One thing is for sure: a lot of family lines will disappear. You'll see losses equivalent to if you drove from one end to the U.S. to the other in 4 directions and saw nothing. No buildings, no people, no animals. Nothing. An entire country turned into a mass grave.

WWIII will either end capitalism, or twist it into something that isn't as recognizable as it is today.

We'll survive but life will not be like what it is now. Just look out west with lakes drying up. People will relocate. There will be conflicts over resources. The dust will settle and we'll adapt to whatever that new normal is. Things may be like the crappy future in sci-fi stories with people living in large mega cities.

The survivors will come out of all of this with a sense of sober, common sense thought tempered by the horrors of what they witnessed collectively. It will be a trauma that is passed down from generation to generation nobody will have been unaffected by it. Everyone who survives will have lost someone they knew. Capital will not be allowed to develop to the insanity that lead us to that point. The only buildings that will be allowed to be constructed will have to pass green standards. We'll use AI to develop radiation poison curing compounds, enzymes/ genetically modified organisms that can eat irradiated material. Such things kind of already exist:


The U.S. will have a new constitution, which massively overhauls the government to prevent the abuses and outright lunacy( 50 years of jurisprudence just being ignored by the SCOTUS ) that we are seeing right now. Certain things will be enshrined in constitutions around the world as human rights(food, shelter, healthcare, privacy) and these rights will be enforced by military force if necessary. No country will be allowed to have a nuclear arsenal, and any evidence of one being constructed will be punished aggressively. They won't hesitate to merc an entire govt over this. We'll have another industrial revolution enforced purely through sustainable and equitable development and another long period of peace.

That's about as optimistic as you're going to get from me OP.
Yeah breh.. there won't be no usa after ww3. Gotta figure this country is target number 1 for canned orange juice...


And yeah there will be survivors.. but keep it 100%. Too much old and new bad blood. Separate ways and the birth of new nations.

But outside of the usa thing.. I definitely agree.. People are gonna be real sober after all of this shyt :wow:

My hope is that it will give us a clean state. I listened recently to a podcast about the Liberian Civil wars, you see how years of fighting and death just wears people out on both sides and after a while they're willing to let shyt go and start again.

Germany apologized to the jews after WWII and paid them reparations. The rest of Asia didn't get in japans ass enough. Japan didn't suffer nearly enough to make them apologize so best believe when the next war pops off, China is going to go HAM. That beef is still real and they will make them submit the way Japan submitted to the US and now considers America a close friend.

I genuinely hope I'm wrong and we change this world peacefully, but when you study enough history you realize humans are just too married to violence and greed. We need to have an explosion of violence every few generations followed by progress and growth.

Its like the old phrase goes:
Hard times create hard men
Hard men create good times
Good times make soft men
Soft men create hard times

The people who lived under and fought fascists are old and dying, the politicians trying to bring that shyt here in the U.S. didn't live that. They didn't see it for themselves and experience that trauma so they have no problem sliding America into an authoritarian police state and fantasizing about race war and genocide. There are no Civil War vets anymore, so southerners can wax poetic about another one popping off and how 'the south shall rise again' they haven't seen the absolute savagery of industrial war between two equally advanced sides so they can talk all that bullshyt. These are the soft men who are in charge now. Same as those who aren't willing to stomp them out. They think it can't happen here in this day and age while it's doing exactly that right in front of their eyes.
