3 years agoPointless assertions of a doomed future, nothing more than an attempt by media to maintain viewership by hitting your adrenal glands.
The assertions in the article are the same baseless assertions of an inevitable collapse that have been cited time and time again both before and after Trump’s presidency. They weren’t right about the predictions then, and aren’t right about the predictions now. It’s the same as any doomsday prophet pushing the year back once again. This expert will be analyzing our red flags 20 years from now. Once 2025 hits, the new right-wing coup alarm will sound in 2030. Then 2035. Then 2040. So on.
The USA is tribalistic, has high wealth inequality and poor labor conditions. Like throughout our entire history. We are in a state of stagflation as we have been in the past. We are not in a civil war. I’ll take speculation about a right-wing coup or an economic meltdown seriously when we hit that point.
Technically, doomsday speculation has to be right if you do it long enough.
