Can we though? People 100 years ago were much better, made of much stronger stuff.


I 100% believe something like this is a possibility, things are so profoundly bizarre right now it feels like something is fundamentally wrong on a "reality is literally broken" level.

The way people have turned on such basic things that make a human human, on such basic things that make society function, it's so insane I wouldn't consider any explanation too crazy.

I think of John Titor, maybe some scientists time traveled to prevent Y2K, but monkeying with reality like that only made things worse in the long run? Maybe it was some accidental experimentation, like the LHC, that broke something.

All I know is something is seriously screwy.
While I'm not the most upstanding of Christians and think words are terrible evangelization, sometimes I just have to mention scripture I am reminded of. In this case, Second Timothy, chapter three, the first five verses:
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
The instruction manual is abundantly clear here. Therefore I will not live in the pod, eat the bugs, or suck any girldick. I will keep working with the good people I am blessed to be near and hopefully make my bunker innawoods in time.
 
That's one weak ass pandemic if it qualified.

We got through the early 20th. We can get through this.

This is going to seem unrelated but I promise it is not. So, let's discuss time travel. One of the big questions posed about the practicality of it is: what happens if you go back in time and change the future? It seems like it would be paradoxical and impossible, but how frequently has humanity thought something impossible only to discover we were limited by our own ignorance?

Let's gloss right over the practicality of how it happened and presume that it did. All of us left behind are in a timeline that no longer happened. Now one possibility is instantaneous destruction, which obviously could not have happened in this case. This leaves two major possibilities:
  • Gradual deletion- life carries on as bits and pieces of this timeline begin to disappear. In multidimensional/non-linear time this means our future is just as likely to disappear on us as the past (reminder of just how little we know about our past). But, from our perspective something still has to happen. Well, what happens sometimes when software goes to use an asset and finds that it is not there? It uses something else instead that it still has. If this is the case I regret to inform you that humanity as we know it is entering it's Endless Eight arc.
  • Dimensional Merge- unironically there is the possibility that as we get shunted back to the true dimension, things that were changed are replaced on at-least a temporary basis with "assets" that were not deleted (sometimes with slight modification).
I'm not sure what the take away is from this but it struck me as terrifyingly not-impossible.

Not that much. They put on a better front for the most part. Now granted, we're going to come out of it even worse than we are, but we are going to come out of it.

You're not wrong, just that it's always been this way in one form or another.
 
Life is pain, and if any one tells different, they are selling something.
