Fighting for survival and killing each other like animals would suck arse. I for one like having a roof on my head, 3 meals a day and access to the entire world at my fingertips. Sue me.

Happiness is a choice. Life is wonderful. Sure you have bad moments but everyone does. Get up each day with positivity.

No.


Any retatd who says they want society collapse so they can go survival mode hasn't given it much thought. It'd be terrible.

But are things really worse today?

If you consume the news a lot it will seem that way, but I have cut back on keeping up with the news on a regular basis. I follow sports an all, but try to avoid the other shite as much as possible.

Yes things are unsettled out there
I've noticed the last five years and I felt like I wasn't really present as it was happening
But the pandemic, the shutdown,n the fear that fricked people up ,, their afraid and protective/selfish

Yes. I earn an extremely enviable salary, I enjoy my colleagues and my bosses, and generally enjoy what I do. That being said, I can’t help but feel like vast swaths of the best years of my life were given to people who would absolutely frick me right over if the chips were ever down; absolutely a trade off and the definition of work, but I think we often still feel the evolutionary tugging of our hunter-gatherer ancestors to migrate and it runs against our current lives within society. Thousands of years ago our ancestors gave up that freedom for the safety and security of settlements.

No. I have no desire to live in an age and time when every single day I wake up and know that I am likely in a fight for my family’s literal survival. If I fail, I likely die, and whatever individual or group kills me will then kill my son and likely rape and kidnap my wife and daughter. Once society and civilization has truly been cast aside, in a true apocalyptic scenario, that is probable scenario whenever you run across another tribe. I don’t want that for my family.

Your entire ancestry fought and died for you to live the good life and you want to throw it all away because it’s boring.

Jfc people are weird.

What foolish grandstanding. There are many areas of the world that are lawless and bloody. The Sudan immersed in brutal civil war, the Sahel where Jihadists prowl, the Al-Shabab controlled areas of Somalia, eastern Congo, the wastes of Mexico and areas in South America where sadistic narcos rule, Myanmar, Haiti, the list goes on and on. You should go to one of those places to satisfy your supposed desire. If you aren't beheaded, tortured, or enslaved in short order, you'll be begging to return to the greatest democracy in human history. Don't wish for horror.

Yeah I agree with most guys on here.
Last night I put my baby girl to bed, then I poured 2 Abita ambers into one glass. Started drinking those while my wife got our son settled for the night. She joined me, and had a glass of chardonnay while we streamed a show on Prime. After which we fricked on our pillow top mattress, in the air conditioning…
Sure, I dream of living like my papaw… but he grew up on a sharecropping farm in Yalobousha County and lied about his age in order to enlist in the Navy at 15 and ship off to war.
Makes you think… cold beer, air conditioning, fine women, and soft beds are something to consider

I was hoping to peel off a few super fly honeys with whom I would sire bands of semi-feral children who form a loose creation cult centered around my cock in which they refer to it only as The Pilot.

Sale your house and move to a 3rd world county. It isn't that hard to do, but you had rather sip on your Starbucks and cry because you had to work a few extra hours.
