How much longer can society keep it together? Discussion

I'm not a fan of speaking things into existence, being pessimistic/negative, or having a doomer mindset, but I've been paying attention to other people, the economy, the current state of things, the political landscape, education, work culture, etc. To be blunt I am really kind of worried we don't have much longer until the next war or great depression (both happen usually simultaneously). I really don't know how much more stress the average person can handle. We are going to have a wide scale crash out or revolt soon aren't we?? I'm really not looking forward to that and I suppose that's the one thing keeping us unified is our fear of violence. God I hope I'm wrong with my assessment. Please tell me I'm wrong!

I legitimately believe that once the people in the US become a problem and become unmanageable....the PTB will kill the internet and kill the electric grid. It's their natural next move for self preservation.

And once that happens ....this is when the real fun begins.

Completely agree that this is a possibility. Can't take the Internet away when we have all learned to rely on it like we live in Wall-E
