Prelude to a Disaster

Every day the news gets worse. Millions of people are displaced by record-breaking heatwaves and droughts, violent mega-storms and flash floods. Unprecedented wildfires burn out of control, scorching massive tracts of forest and brush, and plunging nearby urban metropolises into surreal scenes of mid-afternoon darkness. Meanwhile, scientists solemnly inform us that marine life could be wiped out by mid-century, as the oceans continue to be gradually transformed from vibrant areas of rich biodiversity into the plastic-filled graveyards of industrial civilization. Try as we might… the consequences of our consequence-free lifestyles are becoming harder and harder to ignore.

It’s become widely accepted that ‘global warming’ exists, and that our societies’ current rates of carbon emission are imperiling future generations. Millions of people agree that we are robbing our unborn descendants of their right to an inhabitable planet – something that their ancestors foolishly took for granted. This increasing awareness is translating into a growing consensus that our so-called ‘leaders’ need to intervene in order to fix this problem and correct this historic injustice. Unfortunately, most environmental activists continue to be hampered by a false understanding of how power operates in society, the scale of the problem that we face… and what would actually be required to fix it. In Trouble 23, subMedia takes a closer look at these dynamics, arguing for the importance of taking bold action to defend local bioregions, even as we work towards the total overthrow and replacement of the global capitalist economy.

    More agitprop to get Whitey replace himself with declining-IQ darkies of every sort.  Public acknowledgement of the massive planetary overload of outhouselings is forbidden.  Whites are to intensify their guilt and go extinct in order to enable darkies to consume every last bit of nutrient in the global Petri dish.

    The Perfect Storm is coming, yes.  But when it comes, perhaps the White genosuicidists will be exterminated first.  And then perhaps — just perhaps — the few Whites who want to live can do what needs to be done.  And survive.

    “This increasing awareness is translating into a growing consensus that our so-called ‘leaders’ need to intervene in order to fix this problem and correct this historic injustice.”

    It can’t be fixed, stupid, so get a grip. Do a Kubler Roth and begin adapting and mitigating crisis. OH, and trouble 23, you forgot to list multiple other issues just as bad as climate change. You are carbon trapped and path dependent and choose to whine instead of be honest.

    “As Climate Change Worsens, A Cascade of Tipping Points Looms”
    https://tinyurl.com/sg9anq6 yale 360

    “Researchers’ biggest fear is for the future of the ocean circulation system, which moves heat around the world and may dictate global climate. The researchers once considered these tipping points to be largely independent of each other. Now they warn that the world faces a “cascade” of abrupt shifts in the planet’s climate system, as global warming takes hold. “We might already have crossed the threshold for a cascade of inter-related tipping points,” they wrote in Nature. This “could trigger a shift in the state of the Earth system as a whole”

    Oops, sorry y’all. According to the Kubler Ross model adaptation and mitigation are both parts of the bargaining and denial stages. That’s where I’m still stuck at.

    AFRICAN LION POPULATION NOW UNDER 10,000 SAYS WWF REPORT

    “THE ONCE ICONIC WILDLIFE OF AFRICA ARE RAPIDLY DECLINING AND FOREVER MODIFYING THE ECOLOGY OF AFRICA AS AN EXPONENTIAL HUMAN POPULATION GROWTH, THE RAZING OF EQUATORIAL FORESTS, THE ILLEGAL TRADE IN WILDLIFE, AND THE CONSUMPTION OF BUSHMEAT HAVE CONSPIRED TO SPELL THE END FOR MANY SPECIES. SPECIES ONCE A COMMON SIGHT ON AFRICAN SAFARIS MAY SOON BE RELEGATED TO ZOOS TO PREVENT THEIR EXTINCTION.”

    Congratulations, humanity, you always know best how to fuck up a good thing. Instead of working to make a positive difference, people are too consumed with petty squabbles and stupidity.

    For the good of the planet, Mother Nature’s immune system must kick in soon to eradicate humanity so the Earth can breathe a sigh of relief.

    Bullshit JuanPee, after one has come to the acceptance point he goes forth in efforts to adapt and mitigate. You on the other hand believe one should kill themselves after “partying hardy”. That shows what kind of worthless piece of shit you are. To bad you don’t follow your own advice. Well we know you are “partying hardy” now but maybe you will take the next step.

    Come on stupid, you have been trolling me now for over 2 years. Who is the angry and depressed one? You continue to make me laugh and enjoy seeing you descend into madness that comes with uncontrolled destructive urges. You think you are hurting me but all you are doing is destroying your own life. Keep it up. I like seeing egotistical psychopathic asswipes suffer.

    1484 — The pope establishes severe penalties against German witches & magicians; over the next 300 years perhaps 200,000 accused witches are executed. It’s a mean nasty ugly job, but somebody has to do it…& who better but the Catholic Church?

    1965 — High Seas: Sleeps With Fishes?: Aircraft loaded with a nuclear bomb rolls off a US aircraft carrier somewhere in the mid-Pacific. The plane, with the pilot & the bomb, sank in 16,000 feet of water. It has not been recovered.

    2008 — US: Wall Street aristocracy gets $1.2 Trillion in secret loans today alone, dwarfing the $700 billion publicized TARP loans. These banks (JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citigroup, & many others) were proclaiming their health while secretly being saved & growing bigger by the hidden bailout — raking in an estimated $13 billion in profits from those loans while they were at it — while they continued fighting against government regulation & oversight.

    Fascinating how human civilization trajectory keeps heading towards a very harsh environment, with warnings in articles along the way, yet as a species we do a great job of cancelling any real effort to slow down the degradation at all levels by employing the art of argument.

    I wonder if amongst yeast there are one’s that put out a chemical alarm, there’s only so much sugar left and once it’s gone they’ll all perish, but that is cancelled out by the one’s that put out a counter chemical that says balls to the walls, don’t slow down or stop now!

    “Oh, and after the whitelash comes the white earthquake. Remember that, mrs Pelosi!”

    Populism has stalled. It won’t do much more. Too much of the population are centrist to see either extreme. This is especially true with females. Cloggo has daily wet dreams over this right avalanche fantasy and one can only laugh at him.

    Prelude to Davsaster

    Every day the PO.com gets worse. Millions of good posts are displaced by record-breaking insanity and socking, violent mood-swings and hot flashes. Unprecedented davy socking burns out of control, scorching massive tracts of articles and posts, and plunging nearby threads into surreal scenes of day-long darkness. Meanwhile, scientists solemnly inform us that any life at PO.com could be wiped out by mid-century, as the Davyskum continues to gradually transform the once vibrant areas of rich discussion into the spam and sock-filled graveyards of formerly sane and on-topic conservation. Try as we might… the consequences of davys unmoderated posts and rampant lunacy, are becoming harder and harder to ignore.

    It’s become widely accepted that ‘davyskum’, unfortunately, exists, and that his current rate of ass emission are imperiling future discussions. Millions of people agree that davy is robbing our unborn descendants of their right to express comments and opinions contrary to ones only he approves of – something that davy foolishly takes for granted. This increasing awareness is translating into a growing consensus that our so-called ‘Davyturd’ needs a mental health intervention in order to fix his problems and correct his historic
    insanity. Unfortunately, most PO.com activists continue to be hampered by the fact that there is no moderation for extremists and there is no power operating in this forum, the scale of davys problem that we face… and what would actually be required to fix it. In Troubled PO.com, skumMedia takes a closer look at these dynamics, arguing for the importance of taking bold action to defend sane and coherent conversion, even as we work towards to overthrow of davys reign of terror and replacement of him with something more intelligent and polite, like an inert chuck of rock. or pile of goat-feces.

    Everything is getting worse,why not PO.com also. The Collapse is progressing nicely with debt approaching exponentialality along with Warming. Lowered standard of living protests around the world now includes France. I was born in 1950, population 2.3 billion.I became a nonbreeding tree hugger in 1970. What has followed has been difficult to watch but not unexpected. We as a species are in a crowded elevator at the 100th floor and the cable is starting to unravel. It won’t be long now.

  42. makati1 on Thu, 5th Dec 2019 4:58 pm 

    Sissyfuss, better to be on the 3rd floor when it goes. I moved down the “elevator” voluntarily over these last 20 years so the pain would be less.

    Yes, the world is going to change in a negative way and those with the most “stuff” will also feel the most pain when it happens. Amerikans, especially, as all alive there now have never really known a life of poverty. Even the “poor” in Amerika are better off than the average African. I wish you luck in the coming years. buckle up!

  43. Sissyfuss on Thu, 5th Dec 2019 5:10 pm 

    Mak, Limits to Growth has pretty much destroyed Capitalism so we’re doing Debtitalism til it morphs into Barterism. I’m pretty low on the carbon shoe size but I’ll have to descend much more to be neutral. Very much more.

  44. fully woke cock sucking muzzie lover on Thu, 5th Dec 2019 5:48 pm 

    superturd Why do you make such a fool of yourself. You are so stupid

  45. makati1 on Thu, 5th Dec 2019 6:10 pm 

    yes, Sissyfuss, it is difficult to get to the bottom voluntarily. I had a neighbor here, living in a bamboo hut in our back yard, with no electric, running water, or even an income. He was 72 years old and suffering from a number of diseases. We, along with friends of his and some of his family, saw to it that he had the necessities, some “luxuries, like an electric light and a small radio, and we paid for his funeral when the time came. He did not speak English so he and I could not communicate much.

    I can see real poverty when I look around but, for the most part, these people are still happy and, having never had more, don’t miss it. As I said, the more “stuff” people have, the more pain when the SHTF. Even the “poor” in Amerika are rich compared to the really poor of the world.
