the one meaningful takeaway I have from [current dustup] on here is that I'm seeing a lot of what looks like class animosity, and it's entirely possible that ends up being just as deep a faultline as race.
something to think about

@duke Lots of LARPing muddying the waters too (religion guys that couldn't describe their beliefs to a child, TRVE ARYANS that will be forced in to Astolfo cosplay camps the instant shit hits the fan, etc)

@BanditHeeler
EVERYONE is LARPing until shit hits the fan. That's just the way it is. I got shit on brutally for saying I wanted to get the fuck out of dodge before things get even worse than they already are, and if that's people's opinion, fine, but the truth is that literally nobody REALLY knows what they'll do or who they'll be if muh collapse actually goes down - and that's fine; how could they?
One thing I WILL say is that if you honestly believed some sort of societal collapse was imminent, I would think you'd want to make as many friends and build as many reliable social bonds as you could.

@duke People are self-interested at the end of the day.
No amount of yelling or shaming will change that.

@duke Given how bad inequality is in America and the fact that it's getting worse, class animosity is going to be a huge issue
