He’s not really wrong though lol.

Most of the supports have already collapsed in America about all we have left is the ability to placate people with infinite treats.

If that goes away people are gonna start noticing literally everything else sucks too.

Mate, even if every corn-syrup and animal-protein-slurry dispenser in Amerikkka was destroyed, feudal capitalism would still reign. See Haiti.

the government must estabilish a national treat monopoly that forces all treat employees to buy a portion of treats from all other treat dispensories via a sovereign treat employee fund

I assume he is coming at it from a “the kids are too woke to work anymore” angle, maybe unfair but he has a blue check which must be treated with reflexive hostility.

Yes, I am plenty familiar with the concept of ‘supply and demand’…

I demand you supply me with my treats for minimum wage!

Wait, “Dairy queen” sells burgers? I thought they were like…a sundae/milkshake shop.

I’m starting to think that every business in America sells burgers and hotdogs regardless of whatever else they normally offer.

They’re so good too.

Yeah most of them also sell hot food like hamburgers, corn dogs, etc.

Some stores only sell the cold dessert stuff, but a lot of them have a hot food menu too.

The blizzards are also really good. Lmao.

Hot dogs are actually pretty uncommon in fast food. DQ, Sonic, and Auntie Anne’s are the only ones I can think of that have them.

I mean, they’re kinda right, not in that societal collapse is when no double chunky munky blizzard, but societal collapse looks like that in that it’s a fair bet as a precursor to societal collapse. I think it’s pretty reasonable to think the treats will be the first to go and the loss of the treats will precipitate more chaos.
