Any one of these crises could lead a nation to collapse. The USSA is facing not one of these crises, but all of them.

Imagine upon the event horizon where all segments of society collapses practically overnight due to various factors of unsustainabilty just mentioned, then upon that event horizon all the forms of human malice becomes unleashed, no longer regulated, limited, or restrained by the state because the state itself has collapsed. It will be a time that the global world order as we know it breaks down and is no longer able to function or even give the illusion that it can function. America is the heart of the global world order. The world practically revolves around the USSA. And there is no plan 'B' for when America as we know it comes to an end.

This is all the accumulation or even conglomeration of human unsustainability compounded over time- an unsustainabilty which was previously ignored and swept under the rug, but cannot be ignored any longer as finally everything catches up to us in a perfect storm of total human self destruction, this is the future.

The grand finale of disequilibrium simply takes over everything and no-one can stop it. Modernity requires large amounts of expendable human energy in its input or application, but once you force diminishing returns on the majority of the population to which tremendous costs or stresses outnumbers all forms of social rewards eventually such a system will break down just like all others previously have in past human history. Our "technologically advanced" society is no different. In fact, our technologically advanced society will only ensure things will collapse immensely more quickly and violently due to technological efficiency, the collapse itself will be equally efficient.

Have a wonderful day everyone.
We are fine in MAGA country. We live well and have laws and enforcement to repel anarchy.

Meanwhile the large urban areas descend into chaos. It is a democrat dream come true. Look at all the democrat success stories they have to show the benefits of liberalism- Detroit, Camden, Watts, Compton, East St. Louis, South Chicago.......................................... The democrats seek to bring such an idyllic life as those areas to your city.

Well, aren't you just a blazing ray of sunshine?

I'd say we are definitely on an irreversible downhill slide. I hope I don't live long enough to see the total collapse of this nation. I'm 65.

And no one seems to want to fight back. Everyone stays in their coccoon and no one says a gosh darn thing. I wonder what it will take?

Threads like these save the environment because you don't need to waste billboards to hang around your chest with "End of the World is Nigh", signs.

I guess the bars are closed so edgy sociology majors can't name drop "late stage capitalism" in their convos trying to pick up chicks so they come here

In Hindu theology, there is an age called the 'Kali Yuga- an age of dissolution, in which all forces that were previously held in check by a higher law and influences of a superior order pass into a state of dispersion and chaos. The world today is not merely in the 'Kali Yuga,' but the very final stages. This is the very final stage of dissolution, and no force alive can reverse it...

"MAGA Country" has plenty of its own problems- it is being ravaged by drug/alcohol abuse, suicides, obesity, etc.

And in the Bible it's called "the end of times."

The end of the order of things as we know it.

It's not the "end of times," just the end of a particular cycle...

And now "scientists" have joined in on the chorus to tell us the earth's climate is going to kill us.

Whoopee! Should we all just pull the triggers right now and get it over with?
