At least they didn’t elect their evil overlords, but I guess this isn’t the place for complaints about politics. At the very least, I’m not anti-democracy, just very scared that America has re-elected the worst decision they ever made.
Capitalism, on the other hand, has clearly proven a terrible choice of economy for long-term health of humanity, regardless of whether the government lived under is authoritarian or democratic. Some of my favorite things in life have been capitalist in origin, but they were not worth the direction we’re heading.
Self preservation isn’t selfish. Nobody sane wants to see somebody else die for no reason, and almost everyone has a family or a group of friends they care about, however limited or fake. Collapse helps nobody, look at what happened to Russia, and if society would collapse not even capitalism would survive. Too many executives can’t afford the price of assuring their own safety for them to just carry on into a cyberpunk or industrial-feudalist society.
