Collapse

This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.


Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.


RULES

1 - Remember the human

2 - Link posts should come from a reputable source

3 - All opinions are allowed but discussion must be in good faith.

4 - No low effort, high volume and low relevance posts.

Location: Southern Germany

A significant flood following exceptional rainfall. One of these once-a-century events that are likely to happen once-a-decade now.

Increased violence towards politicians, including knife attacks. Further escalation in the NATO-Russia conflict, including attacks on Russia's nuclear triad infrastructure. Obviously trying very hard to provoke use of tactical nuclear weapons.

Things in general continue to degrade: quantity and quality of goods and services, the general economy, mental health of the population.
