If you want to live in a post-societal-collapse there’s no one stopping you from squatting in the ruins of an abandoned town or village. There are thousands of ghost towns all over the world.
Society isn’t collapsing because everyone keeps driving to work in a crying mess every day.
Give it another 10 days
Be the collapse in society you wish to see.
That’s Žižek’s dream. “You gotta go out and revolt, but one day, I hope we’ll find the big magic button and the whole system comes crashing down at once” or something like that.
I’m part of society and just collapsed from a panic attack.
I’'m doing my part!
Cut to a billionaire pushing orphans into the orphan crusher.
I’m doing my part.
Cut to individual in black block throwing a Molotov cocktail.
I’m doing my part.
My nephew is voting for Trump because “I can’t afford a house so I’m hoping he’ll crash the economy.”
Does he understand if that happens then along with housing market, the job market will also collapse? Unless he has few millions stashed away, he isn’t going to buy a house in Trump’s second term.
