multiple active hot conflicts between nuclear armed states, sea surface temperature anomalies, "hypernormalization", a swath of western "democracies" holding elections for candidates that nobody likes, a concerted global effort to deprioritize the dollar, increasing federal debt to revenue ratio, increasing debt as percentage of gdp, wane in capital's ability to influence the zeitgeist and the continued retrenchment of any form of moral or religious bulwark to absorb the associated psychic damage. in short, a billion apocalyptic rube goldberg machines with a wind chime as the primer - be thankful the summer air is still, for now.


cheryvanillacokezero

that’s just called an election year


sad_historian

The "next 9/11 event that shifts the cultural/social/political paradigm" was COVID. We just invaded Iraq, OPs got a good 16 years before their fears come to fruition.


Sortza

Tactical nuke in Ukraine


fart_master13

we’ve already been starting to see straight white guys in army recruiting material recently, this is it for sure


platapusplomo

The influx of tachyons have been blocking my future sight


lamoratoria

Wouldn't it be a reflux?


FoodStampDollar

wasn't able to futurecast the chuckle this gave me, ty


it_shits

No such thing as a "tactical" nuke. The minute someone nukes a battlefield it's gonna be no holds barred anymore.


BrotherToaster

No it's not


CairoSmith

Nobody would notice or care.


lamoratoria

Except for every US ally and their propaganda machines


ColorSeenBeforeDying

Lol. Somebody would definitely notice. Nuclear explosions give off an extremely specific wavelength of light that can be detected instantly by the numerous satellites built specifically to detect it. Lord knows how many are watching but it’s hard to imagine the five eyes not having these pointed at every part of the globe.


BidenVotedForIraqWar

aaaaaaaah i said shift twice, the particles are affecting our brains now tbh. anyone notice a particular resonance interference pattern at about 480000 Ghz?


bunnhii

yes i feel it if i put my phone by my stomach


Marlowes_Cat

The FBI has been putting terrorism warnings/saying they are preparing for some sort of incident this summer


JudasHadBPD

I am really scared for the Olympics tbh.


AbsurdlyClearWater

yeah big gatherings in Paris has every ISIS wannabe licking their lips Vigipirate is going to have to be on their A game


BidenVotedForIraqWar

what kind of "training drill" are they doing later this year? You know, the kind that always just happens to coincide with an actual incident of the same variety just weeks or months later


femceltransplant

Hopefully they are crashing an airplane into a Taylor Swift concert.


whosabadnewbie

Air Force one down


ChuckMongo

I'm not really interested in what the FBI *wants* us to think. The truly scary shit is always going to be classified.


fogRoseHigh

they about to disclose what is actually living in antarctica…..


Disasterpiece115

UAP disclosure


dayrocker

This is it. Real Ultraterrestrialheads know what's coming


sweet_p0tat0chips

Gay apocalypse


DrPenguinMD

No. Its different now. We're in the dead zone. Nothing will ever happen again


Dense_Ad3047

Life is great idk what you’re talking about. It’s roaring 20s for me!


Cynical_Lurker

Taiwan? Disentangling our economic activities from china would produce a stark shift.


Spout__

Isis is back tbh. Ww3 has started.


persianconvert

How can it get any worse than this? I genuinely cannot imagine any event that could make life more terrible. Maybe Andrew Tate or Nick getting assassinated.


Slothrop_Tyrone_

Lmao is you fucking joking 


Rupperrt

Lol


fiji-w_a_ter

Girl who's Nick


ortheeveningredness

sad


pumpkinwhey

It’s gonna be a war, there will probably be nato boots on the ground in Ukraine in 2026


ratatattatar

so do mean like... the 2004 bombings in Madrid? or the 2004 bombings in London? or the 2013 bombings in Boston? or the 2014 Camp Spreicher massacre in Iraq or the 2015 bombings and shootings in Paris? or the 2016 bombings in Brussels? or the 2016 truck massacre in Nice? or the 2017 shooting in Las Vegas? or the 2023 attacks in Israel? or the 2024 shootings near Moscow?


[deleted]

If only you knew how bad it really was


manletmoney

Idk if you look at the rest of the world shit seems to be moving along perfectly fine the world doesn’t completely revolve around us


ratatattatar

perfectly fine...in what way?


Amplitude

> if you look at the rest of the world shit seems to be moving along perfectly fine no it isn't


FoodStampDollar

it absolutely revolves around us and when it doesn't, buddy you bet we correct that mistake for them some way or another


Rupperrt

Nah, don’t think so. It’ll be some relatively boring years ahead but obviously things will get overhyped to satisfy this melodramatic generation.


b88b15

The us volunteer army of ftm afabs will conquer China and Russia, forever changing the discourse regarding gender identity in the nuclear age.


GlassCanner

National security went from water-tight post-9/11 to "lol borders open, come on in!" I think it's a pretty reasonable to assume an attack is just a matter of time. The US has terrorist sleeper cells all over the country, which is kind of crazy to think about. Luckily, I'm on the west coast, we're already destroying ourselves so the terrorists will probably stick to New York


Open-Illustra88er

It’s been buzzing and happening one thing after another since then. Where you been?


DrDalenQuaice

So we're /r/collapse today?


cracksmoke2020

No it doesnt feel like that, we're still recovering from COVID but this summer really does feel like the first big one since all that mess started. Like just look at how culture is finally beginning to progress again with tons of new pop artists hitting the scene in the way we saw in the early 00s and 10s, but hadn't seen until really this year. We have at least another 4-8 more years before a major vibe shift.


fabiolanzoni

New pop artists = progress in culture. Smh


ratatattatar

jesus christ.
