TW: Don’t lift the rock if you’re not ready for the snake.

I don’t know if I’m ready for the “snake”.

Despite having joined the collapse sub years back, I never really took deep dives and just had a generalized idea as I’m not an active Reddit user. I also downloaded “Limits to Growth” book and read half of it.

I’ve seen a widespread sentiment of acceptance, rather than pessimism as if an imminent doomsday were certain.

For me, becoming collapse aware would be grounding the general ideas I’ve had about societal stagnation, climate change, or a not so unlikely nuclear war. I see widespread psychosis here, and I want to know whether it’s unfounded or not.

I still struggle to pinpoint the hard fact , study, statement, forecast, that tells us for certain it’s coming to the biblical levels of suffering people mention in this sub. So if you don’t mind sharing with me, what was the “moment”, “fact”, “study” that made you fully accept collapse as the imminent future of our species ? (Aka , lifting the rock).
