It's been like that for a long time, and it's not just outright SJWs, this cancerous "culture" of fear affects a lot of normies. For example, notice how nearly any discussion under a reddit post that involves someone acting irresponsibly in a car (e.g. pretty much anything on r/idiotsincars that gets enough comments) has some retard talking about how "a car is a weapon" and "two ton killing machines" and similar dumbassery. The purpose of these comments is to signal to everyone else that "look how good of a person I am, I'm terrified of cars! I shake in fear every time I get behind the wheel, that means I'm responsible!".
It's not just fear, though - it's general uselessness. How many people have you seen say "oh I can't cook at all", wearing it as a badge of pride? Or "oh, I'm useless at math"? In a better world, anyone too stupid to throw together a decent stir fry or mac and cheese, or balance a budget and calculate the interest on a loan, would be at the absolute bottom of society, looked down upon by everyone else - but in clown world, being a useless piece of shit, or at least claiming to be, actually seems to somehow increase your social status among normies. These people mistake weakness for humility.
Of course I'm not against acknowledging one's weaknesses, that's definitely important, but there's a world of difference between "Yeah, I'm not a great cook, but I can manage" and "I can't even make myself a cup of tea, tee hee". Fuck the latter, the people who are really like that should at least have the common decency to hide it.
I'm terrible at cooking, but this is the fate I have chosen. It's not a matter of pride, I just failed to make that much time to learn (and I'm also bad at it).
The consequence isn't too bad because it means I eat lots of fresh fruits and vegetables. However, my food is typically cold, salad, or sandwich.

My trade-off was physics and programming.
Sure, that might sound like a fair trade-off... but if you compare how often I could have made myself mac & cheese, versus the amount of times I've benefited from explaining quantum tunneling; you'll find that the Mac & Cheese would have been the better investment.
There's a million basic cooking videos on youtube, my man. There's no excuse unless your arms don't work. Feeding yourself is an essential skill, especially for someone who has been telling people to buy a Galil for ages now. You can't eat all the agile managers and youtube content creators we'll be soon hunting down for sustenance in ruins of once great cities raw.

Are you kidding me? I bag one of those babies and i'll be set for years. Everything will taste like Code Red, though.
No, but I don't think we're anywhere near that level of crisis yet, nor will we be soon. That's just not how power changes hands. I don't see any of this as a civilizational collapse. Those tend to happen when civilizations are isolated. Typically, if a non-isolated civilization collapses, it's because people simply move. The civilization didn't die, just the old cities did because they couldn't adapt. That's honestly the worst case scenario of what's going to happen.
More likely this is just the beginning of the change in the fundamental world power structure.

Jews in New York City specifically. That's not because I think they'll have to hunt deer in New York, it's because they'll need that to oppose lynchers.
