When I was a student the story was the 2/3 of humanity “was hungry”.

I myself have been hungry three times a day, all my life. Fortunately there is a remedy against that.

Everyone just wait, in roughly 5-10 years the world will start to fall apart. The horsemen will start to ride and a lot more people will starve and die. On a slightly happier note, If anyone wants to make a deal with me i can make sure you will not suffer, for at least 10 years anyway.

What we have ahead is the perfect storm of BAD. We have the economy, ecosystem, climate, and our civilization on a negative trend. This at the same time we are deceiving ourselves with techno optimism of an opposite direction. Our status quo is pumping out hopium and delusions of plenty. This type of spectacles is playing out globally. In the past civilizations that exhausted themselves had new places to move to both physical and mental. We are now systematically and ecologically at the end of the line. A planet has been consumed and a vital climate abruptly altered.

Many of us who are honest and see things for what they are feel this. We know this is going to end badly. We try to tell others but it is of little use. The world is on a gradient with momentum. It is lost in false vision of a manifest destiny. The inertia of limits and diminishing returns to problem solving has swung the existential momentum towards collapse. No amount of talk will change that. Our social narrative has not yet adapted even though science is clearly telling us of this end.

We can adapt somewhat. If we adapt we can mitigate some of the pain and suffering. Most of what is coming can’t be solved. There are no solutions to predicaments. We will pay a price for our hubris of knowledge and individual advancement. Market based capitalism and liberal democracy ensured we would take life to the limit and we did. Wow was it wonderful. This is beyond a political fix like we had in earlier generations. This is about natural consequences. We are so far into a hole of insanity that there is little hope at the top. Civilization is completely lost in itself from religion to academia.

Where there is still meaning is you as an individual. Meaning has always resided in the heart. It is when we look for meaning outside ourselves at times like this we get lost. Find a good place and good people. Practice relative sacrifice. Downsize with dignity if the circumstances allow. If you want to preach about this tell those who will listen but you are deluding yourself if you think you can change the world. Begin your hospice of spirit. Get ready for a new reality of death along with decline and decay. This will likely not be a Hollywood freak movie so in addition stop the fantasy. Long periods of tedious uncomfortable boredom will be punctuated by terror and loss. The other option is walk cavalierly into the jaws of death enjoying life while you can as you are. Many have a rich and wonderful life but that will surely not last with all the existential traps ahead for our global civilization. You can’t build a civilization into a global racket with no future and expect anything to shake out good from that. The best we can hope for is a shallow decline and a reasonable die off. This type of circumstance will be difficult to manage by people who have grown weak in spirit and with bodies fat and lazy. We still might have hope to strengthen mind and spirit in the boot camp of reality ahead.

By plundering, raping, burning and looting vast amounts of resources and biomass that will never come back. Far beyond the carrying capacity of earth for an extended period. That is how we got here…

This they call “real issues” and no further mention is needed…

It is also called creating Hell on earth ASAP or human nature.

Whoever wrote this is so deluded that it brings forth feelings of nausea.

Let them look at reindeer island population..

The peak year they were more than ever – and possibly very wellfed the year just before… The year after peak… 42 dying animals left. A few years later.. 0…

The situation is the same – just in slow motion because of the scale…

BTW, US obesity has nothing to do with ample food supply. It reflects the consumption of carbohydrate laden food, i.e. the cheapest food to produce. You see the obesity afflicting the lowest income classes. Now why would that be? Because people with higher incomes spend their time at the gym? No.

Notes for the ignorant (denialism):

Malthus (Reverend T.R.Malthus) is a brilliant English economist who explained scientifically the mechanism of occurrence of famines!

This list is available here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_famines
his work was a great warning against the phenomenon (and custom, families with many children!)
His work is still valid; where it raises too many children, it comes to the new phenomena of hunger and wars.
Nowadays, we do not have the possibilities of such a rapid development of agriculture, to Keep up with a new one (if any) the demographic explosion.

Malthus in 1798 obviously did not write anything about the oil.

The depletion of raw materials is a new problem and a lot later.
At the moment a lot of risk wasteful exploiting oil and other raw materials.
Optimistic assumptions that senile be a very long time, are unreliable.

Yep there is no cause for concern whatsoever. No indication at all that a big fucking hammer is about to fall on you and yours heads.

U.S. Communities Clobbered by $53 Billion in Extreme Weather and Climate Disasters in 2016

” These damage costs, however, underestimate the total economic consequences of extreme weather: They do not take into account the destruction of natural assets—such as wetlands and parks—health care costs, and the economic impact tied to loss of life.”

“NOAA recently assessed 30 unusual weather events in 2015, and concluded that 24 of them were exacerbated by climate change.”

https://www.americanprogress.org/issues/green/news/2017/01/19/296860/u-s-communities-clobbered-by-53-billion-in-extreme-weather-and-climate-disasters-in-2016/

In a decade from now the 2016 disaster year will look like a fucking paper cut and all the surviving deniers will live out the rest of their lives in fear and shame knowing they did nothing to protect their loved ones because they chose their tribal emotions over pragmatism. Given what I know of the humans, I bet there are plenty of denier tards who are only playing at being deniers for tribal acceptance reasons – similar to claiming to believe in that infantile ‘invisible man in the sky’ fantasy. Since there is more than enough inertia in the system to easily wipe out civilization and probably do in the humans entirely (combined with the rest of their cancerous activities) you best take steps to protect your loved ones and property even if you still must maintain the group denial stance lest you be shunned.

Abnormal Antarctic Heat, Surface Melt, Giant Cracks in Ice Shelves — More Troubling Signs of a World Tipping Toward Climate Chaos

“The overall picture is of a critical frozen region undergoing rapid change due to the human-forced heating of our world — a warming that has brought Antarctica to a tipping point, for such fundamental alterations to Antarctic ice are now likely to bring about a quickening rate of sea-level rise the world over.

Surface Melt Visible From Satellite

During 2016-2017, Antarctic surface temperatures ranged between 0.5 and 1 degree Celsius above the already warmer-than-normal 1979 to 2000 average for most of Southern Hemisphere summer. While these departures for this enormous frozen continent may not sound like much at face value, they’ve translated into periods of local temperatures up to 20 C above average”

NSW heatwave: Records tumble in Moree, while Sydney set to swelter with top of 40C

“As the mercury soars in Sydney today, spare a thought for the people of Moree in northern New South Wales, who are in the midst of a record-breaking heatwave.
Key points:

The town’s residents have sweltered through 27 consecutive days where the temperature has exceeded 35 degrees Celsius — a state record.

The previous benchmark was 17 days, and the bad news is, there is no respite in sight.”

Sri Lanka hit by worst drought in decades
Dry spell affects more than a million people, with authorities warning of more water shortages.

“The lack of rain last year has lowered water levels in rivers in parts of the country. With less water available to drain the sea salt, supplies have been contaminated, especially in the town of Kalutara, south of the capital, Colombo.

In the village of Kaluganga, more than 200,000 people are affected, as they lack access to clean drinking water.

With rain not expected for another two to three months, the government is warning of worsening shortages.

Reservoirs in the country are running low and some are now down to a fifth of their capacity.

“This drought is affecting both the agricultural and the hydro-power generation,” Lalith Chandrapala, director general of the meteorological department, told Al Jazeera.”

“For the last two days here on the farm large flocks of snow geese have been flying north.”

Back around the new year, when we had close to two feet of snow on the ground, and temperatures of -10ºC, there was a flock of several hundred Robins still in the area. They normally migrate south around the end of September. I wonder how many of them survived.

Apneaman on Tue, 24th Jan 2017 12:58 pm 



Lucifer, the reasons I think the invisible man in the sky (all 10,000 of them) are a fantasy is, #1 I have seen no evidence for for anyone of anyone of them existing ever – zero zippo zilch. #2, I have studied every field out there under the human behavior umbrella and much of it matches my observations and conclusion that the humans, by necessity, live in a permanent state of denial.

Is denial the secret of humanity’s success?

“Denial’s basic idea is that the big breakthrough came when two things happened simultaneously.

First, humans became aware not only of their own minds but also of others’ – they were able to put themselves in someone else’s shoes and to imagine what even people they had never met might be thinking. We can do it with fictional characters as well, picturing how, say, Homer Simpson might react to this article.

Psychologists call this having a full theory of mind. It manifests itself in uniquely human activities such as teaching, torture, romantic infatuation, organized sports, grandmothering, cuisine and even blushing. That human superpower can lead to a Mother Teresa or to a Hitler, Dr. Varki points out.”

“And so comes the second necessary breakthrough – the ability to deny reality, including the reality of death: I know that I’m going to die but carry on as though I’m immortal, meanwhile spreading my DNA around like nobody’s business.”

“His worry is that we are using our powers of denial to ignore what he calls “local climate destabilization,” also known as global warming.

Most types of denial, he says – about high national debt loads, or eating too much red meat or smoking cigarettes or refusing to wear seatbelts – aren’t fatal to the entire species. Climate destabilization, like a nuclear holocaust, could be.

In fact, if his theory is correct, it might also explain why we haven’t found intelligent life on other planets: Perhaps life there evolved much as it did here – depending on creatures that became fully aware of other minds and their own mortality, developed the denial mechanism and then blithely wiped themselves out, taking everything else along for the ride.

Denial, our secret weapon, could turn out to be too much of a good thing.””

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/technology/science/is-denial-the-secret-of-humanitys-success/article12428138/

Grumpy Dave Cohen wrote 3 excellent pieces linking the humans denial to their destruction of their one and only life giving biosphere.

Adventures In Flatland -How Goes Life Among the Humans?

“Conspicuous By Its Absence

Ever since humans discovered the scientific method, nearly 500 years ago now, they have formulated theories about nearly everything. There are cosmological theories, theories of physics, and theories of biology and evolution. In the social realm, there are many, many theories of political economy. You name it, and there are competing theories about it. All the important stuff has been covered—almost.

Conspicuous by its absence is a comprehensive theory, or competing theories, of how the human animal functions. There are some old philosophical debates which reside, and deservedly so, in history’s dustbin. And that’s all there is. This lacuna is not an accident; it is not an oversight. You might think a species which creates so much of its own suffering would be eager to figure out why that is so, and try to fix the problem, but, tragically, such is not the case.

Indeed, there is thinly disguised hostility toward such theories, or distrust of them, on those rare occasions when humans think about themselves at all.”

I am so tired of morons who haven´t read a single line of what Malthus wrote, even in the stinking Wikipedia.

Malthus: Overpopulation = resource depletion + environmental destruction

Jevons: Technofixes = increased overpopulation + increased resource depletion + increased environmental destruction

Bartlett: Failing to understand the exponential function dynamics = collapse

Malthus was a clergyman who wrote openly about people having kids like rabbits, which is inherently an atrocity against the supposed “sanctity” of life but sadly, a heresy to every known religion. Still unable to get Malthus when we are in the late stages of the second phase of Bartlett´s exponential growth dynamics. What a fucking disgrace!

Pre roots of War and Holocaust

What is the deepest secret of the people influencing the
 world politics (called “Masons – Illuminati”)?
There are plenty of frivolous theories from
 mystical, after these totally crazy for.

Probably they understand well what he discovered T.R.Malthus + additionally the following case:

Probably the truth is that they invented gods
 calling for numerous children.
How did this happen?
Let’s look to history. Its origins are divided human history into 4 stages:

golden age,
silver age,
old copper,
iron age.

Most likely, this should be interpreted as follows:
In the “golden age” population density was very low; conflicts hardly existed, there was abundant opportunity to make ornaments with gold, eg. a “Scythian gold”.

In the “silver age” (she came when Jupiter Saturn pushed into Tartarus, [and what it -for devouring children, which was a form of population control? ;-)]) – This room harmony has begun to spoil.

In the last period – “age of iron” probably invented as gods calling for numerous children.
Inspiration is attributed to the peoples who invented the money and usury, such as the Khazars, the Israelites and Phoenicians … [to check]

The motivation was simple: the “golden age” when enough goods for everyone, no need to take loans at interest …

In the Middle Ages Waldenses they found (apparently) that calling for numerous family church proclaiming that “the source of all good” because of this is, in fact, is the source of “all evil” and for this reason they were exterminated by the Inquisition.

This is a new and interesting look. This is a must see!
The need for more well-educated people!
