Some of you guys know this already but r/collapse is recommended to all new users when they join.
r/collapse and r/collapsesupport are full of depressed and otherwise mentally ill people who have convinced themselves that the world is ending to rationalize the way they feel. One of my friends IRL is like this and it's truly sad. I don't know why the frick reddit recommends these subs and I really think it does actual harm to people.
I've been in the situation where my mental problems were exacerbated by online interaction when I had body image issues and browsed /fit/, 4chan's fitness board. It's nearly impossible to get better unless you stop interacting with people who have the exact same issues and rationalizations as you.
Do you think emailing reddit chadmins would get them to stop recommending these subs? Am I a strag for caring about the wellbeing of r*dditors? Let me know what you think.

I think that if things really went that bad it would mostly just affect the third world. The first world is better equipped and if need be can take what they want. Sure we're all about niceness and equality now. But American's are the ancestors of people that killed all the Indians just to take their land. If push comes to shove I think American's would make sure they are going to live in comfort no matter what.

Yeah, but then you have the situation where the 3rd world and even developing nations are cornered animals which won't end well one way or the other. And you would have to hope that enough of the environment remains sustainable in whatever first world you are in.

Europe conquered Africa once, they can probably do it again.

Europe is unironically fricked. They're stagnating in an increasingly competitive world, have almost totally deindustrialized aside from a few select industries in a few select countries, and have few natural resources to sustain themselves in the case of "every country for themselves" levels of collapse.

Fair chance once it hits the fan for them the ones that don't crap out go back boogaloo mode and we get another Napoleon. Big wars await in the future for them.

Neighbor they fricked. Although tbf Egypt's impending societal collapse could bring down their political order in an actual, positive way. Even with radical changes in government I don't see how that could improve their economic or demographic outlooks though.

Once the massive waves of climate refugees begin and some lesser states crap out the EU will change its moralising tune incredibly fast as their citizens trade rights for security, and many have already realised their lack of industry is an existential danger. Slamming shut the borders will be one of the first things to happen.
They'll also probably start fighting anyone who tries stop vital trade.

Several have strong and very modern military forces, so probably those.

This is why we need nuclear proliferation. If Europoors attack this time, the Africans should have nukes ready to commence the mayocide.

Just sink their ships and make the entire southern border patrolled by a swarm of hunter killer drones. We'd have to redefine what a person is, but who cares.
