We’ve been in a state of near society collapse for at least 100 years now.
Not from a real “collapse” point of view.
The last real collapse which ended civilization was the end of the bronze age.
The end of the Roman Empire was way more transistory in comparison.
Yes, civilization was set back, yes, rulers changed, but if you scrap the whole renaissance/ enlightentment propaganda about the “dark ages” there were more things that survived than collapsed.
In the end we’re living in the same civilization as Aristotle, Augustus Caesar, Charlemagne, Elizabeth I., and Bismarck.
Let’s hope global warming / nuclear war doesn’t take care of that.

I keep hearing about this Oppenheimer movie, and it just makes me want to hear Alan Oppenheimer say “I am become death! Destroyer of worlds!” in his Skeletor voice.
Yawn,
quotes about history from people that don’t know much about history to make a generalization like that.
It’s a doomer’s wall tattoo.
