Let say in that brawl he wins what happen and how is they movie change
Like Spain had all this wealth they could have spent building up libraries and their economy, and they chose this? Why would they have chosen wars? Like, what was the reason? Why did Spain need to go to war?
It is very likely that a lot of those suicides would be prevented. Automods and moderators would ban the video before it could even spread.
Authorities would realize how the smiles work after suicides started happening en masse. People would start connecting the dots and realize that if you see a suicide, it passes to another person. I would argue that it would most likely lead to an internet blackout (Iran and North Korea are great examples, and let's not forget the Chinese Firewall). This would probably lead to quarantine zones run by bots or AI. The smile curse would likely die out because it would be stuck in those quarantine zones.
feel like this whole human extinction idea really undermines how smart humanity actually is.

I love the dev team's work on the game, but focusing entirely on pure survival is the wrong approach. While a collapse event would unfortunately result in massive casualties, key specialists like doctors and engineers would be incredibly valuable assets for rebuilding. You need people with technical expertise to build things like electronic fences and defensive structures.The comparison to the fall of Rome doesn't hold up for two main reasons. First, many of Rome's aqueducts were actually maintained well into the 1900s. Second, while Rome only had a few thousand specialists, the modern world has millions. In a collapse scenario, average people like you and me might not survive, but warlords would actively protect specialists. The faction with the most experts is the strongest, so people would avoid killing them and instead use them to train the next generation.The biggest flaw in the "pure survival" argument is that it completely ignores books. There are billions of books preserved in libraries, homes, basements, and universities. We also have hobbyists and military manuals. Because there is an abundance of literature on metallurgy, medicine, and engineering, the information won't vanish. Specialists are a necessity, and nobody has a reason to destroy these resources. Literacy will inevitably endure because people—especially those with resources—will teach their children. We simply have too many books and institutions today for knowledge to completely disappear.TL;DR: Specialists are too valuable to kill, and there are too many books in the world for human knowledge to just vanish
I hate all those posts because they will only show the best parts of China—you know, the downtowns and the rich areas of China, the places the CCP wants you to see. Like, they will show the high-speed rail and the great places, but the poverty in China they will never show. Instead, they will show the poor places in America or Europe, but never their rich areas. Then compare those areas and say this is why china is successful. I am not saying all of China is poor, but acting like China has no poverty is pretty stupid.
​
I want to know this because I heard a lot of people say they will never trust America again, but these people are acting like the European far-right is not on the rise. So, I was wondering: if their right-wing parties won, would we see people saying 'I will never trust Germany, the UK, or France' because of their supporters? Like so what if their pro free healthcare you can have a racist welfare state. ( i am not calling conservative racist)
They can use their drug empire across the world and it total war until only one is alive
America is on the verge of collapse? Shut up, no it’s not. I’m tired of Reddit saying this.This is kind of from an Iran war post where people somehow thought the Iranians dealing with hyperinflation—preventing them from buying food, causing gas lines at fuel stations, and the possibility of Tehran dying of drought—was somehow comparable to the average American.
We are not on the verge of death. People tend to overstate how much people want a civil war. Trust me, as a guy who lived in Senegal and heard news about Mali, it’s not fun, nor will it improve anything. Do not get me started on how bad urban sieges are in general.America is not on the verge of death. The average American will probably live to his 80s. Yeah, the cost of living sucks, but it sucks everywhere in the developed world. Name me a place in the developed world without a cost-of-living crisis. I will give you the polarization, but let’s be real here: will the average American who has a job and a family really fight for Trump if he attempts a civil war? Or will Greg Abbott really run the risk of death and stand up for Trump? We are not that bad. In general, we still have electricity. This is not to say America does not have problems, but conditions will likely never reach a point where people consider civil war. Realistically, the Republicans will probably not start a dictatorship because that would cause a ton of backlash, and the GOP party will put themselves over Trump—so will the billionaires.
Geopolitically wise, I think people say China will overtake America, but that’s doubtful. We have seen nations trust China less due to overproduction harming their industries. Let’s not forget Taiwan, debt-trapping, and the nine-dash line. China has failed multiple times, like in Myanmar. I am not saying China will collapse, but I highly doubt it will surpass America knowing its population and other issues. I already answered Iran's problems, and with Russia, you can see why Russia is not a good partner, is losing ground in Ukraine, is economically strained, and is having a bad time against the USA.
So, what I meant to say is that no, the USA will not collapse. The world would not be better if it did. And the thing most people don't realize is that in two years Trump will be gone. If the Dems win, they could fix some of the issues, and if the Reps win, we're either going to have a more cautious JD Vance or neocon Marco Rubio.
