I guess watching all my relatives and friends die slow painful deaths would be the ultimate bummer.

"People are idiots. They made a lot of stupid things: costumes for dogs, marketing managers and stuff like the iPhone, getting nothing, but a sour aftertaste. If we would worked to develop science, explore the Moon, Mars and Venus... who knows what the World would have been? Humanity would be able to travel through space, but it chose consuming instead - drinking beer and watching soap operas"
- Raymond Douglas Bradbury.

But! As for me, I think we are still closer now. Because the Yanks have lost any touch with reality after twenty+ years of their "victories", they had around the globe during all those years. They don't even think someone can pay them the same token. They have lost that sense, the fear of mutual destruction. They think they can kill for free forever and nobody would do the same to them.
As I've said - they are idiots and we will strike back for sure.
That's why the sh!t is coming.

I was actually surprised to see the doomsday clock at 3 minutes to midnight. I knew we'd been moving up recently, but still figured we were pretty far away from Cold War levels.
I dunno. In 2001, I thought for sure the world was ending. But I was young then and didn't know any better. I've learned since that--as far as politics and world events and history are concerned--how I feel in the moment is not a good gauge of the reality of the situation. So I get that some people can look at the world right now and see it going to hell in a hand basket, but I am unconvinced.
I see many fronts in which we're making so much progress, despite the uptick in war and revolution and chaos we've had recently. I don't think the end will come for us until the flood waters are at our houses or Skynet is operational.Click here if you're having trouble sleeping.

Originally posted by Serb View PostBtw, I'm pretty sure most of you have no idea about the origin of the word "idiot".
It is a Greek word (hi, Paik!), which means "the one who is not interested in politics".
Idiot = the one who is "privitizing" who cares only for himself and who does not take part in the koina (in the public, in politics)
