It's becoming way more noticeable now in the normie spheres but this is something for you all to think about and possibly be somewhat amused by how fucked it's going to be that even the normies and leftists won't be able to deny what's happening in front of them.
You know how I've always been in favour of accelerationism these days for the sake of making those fuckers miserable? Well it seems to be happening on day to day scale. Another reason why I'm so determined to simply gtfo and I highly advise anyone who hasn't to do so because it's going to get fucking bad and I've been a bit autistic and compiling a list.
. You know how leftists always argue 'muh ethnic food?' It's always incredibly average now or shit and I can whip up something within five seconds at home that's a million times better. I think I am now determined to avoid that crap, hell even an average ready meal from a supermarket is a million times better
. Indian call centres ( Always been a thing, but it's definitely gotten worse, they barely speak English so any kind of standard has completely dropped )
. Delivery drivers almost all becoming migrants aside from a couple of boomers, also barely speak English, one person came to my door and had a bloody speech impediment. They seem to be allowing even clearly disabled people who shouldn't be doing customer service, bad Idea if they can't even talk right and no it wasn't a language issue
. Quite a serious story happened recently which I think was posted up here where a migrant nurse who couldn't even speak English properly couldn't get an ambulance to help a dying boomer this also completely wipes out the leftist argument of using migrant labour to take care of us all when we get older ( Leftists just view migrants as a servant class and nothing more )
. Migrants are not integrating as if it wasn't obvious and are making schools infinitely worse than they were before and parents are actively putting white kids especially in danger sending them there
. NHS was always a pile of shit but it is impossible to get a doctor's appointment anymore so that's definitely going to start costing lives and major health issues, you're always directed to go to their website like it's tech support instead of ever being able to talk to a real person. Only a retard would claim that mass migration didn't cause this and mean it
. Something leftists especially will be deeply uncomfortable about discussing, third world hygiene level standards are being imported here as well along with the migrants and it's starting to effect the UK too because of course it fucking is. It's going to be unavoidable that we'll get potentially life threatening diseases spreading, which again, is why you get the fuck out of the cities and get some major distance from hot spots
I am fleeing the country and going to the fucking mountains before these actual low IQ retards start taking over infrastructure and policing which they almost already have. On the plus side, this is going to affect leftists and normies way worse than me. The migrant shit does actually concern me far more than anything the deep state does simply because of numbers.
Something extra I also like we've all been noticing too, even in Hollywood the back end standards have dropped massively because the companies are doing everything they can to avoid paying people properly they're relying on either AI or cheap foreign labour. This in turn is making even entertainment shit for the short term and yes frustrating but will be worse for the normies and leftists because that's all they have the mental capability to watch.
Everyone in here should have backup plans, I'm not talking about another job.
Have a place in a rural area, have ways to protect yourself, not just martial arts something with reach. Have some knowledge of how to provide such as basic cooking or even how to grow food.
These people are so incompetent and rather than admit their plans have failed, let it all burn. It wouldn't surprise me if all the useful idiots die first and their enforcers abandon posts to look after themselves.
Oh yeah definitely, this shit will hit the cities worse, it's the disease factor that concerns me the most because of how much that spreads when things get really bad and because the leftists and especially the government will never admit to what's going on they would sooner blame whitey than the new migrant arrivals for the problems being caused. We've seen this is the case with Ireland with that girl getting attacked so we know which way the hammer is going to fall when things start getting really bad.
It's also important to get to know your neighbors well. If they live responsibly and think like you, they will be a vital asset. If they sport purple hair and they're telecommuting for work in California while flying a pride flag out front, make sure your dogs scare them.
And make time to go to town hall and PTA meetings...make it clear to everyone emigrating from the cities to rural America that their bullshit is not going to be tolerated, so if they want to stay they'd better learn English, throw away their Satanic literature and put their work boots on.
One of James Lindsey's recent podcasts mention the AMA (American Medical association) going full commy and pledging bullshit. This is Lysenkoism and will cause us to lose medicine. Or at least set it back decades as ideology trumps medicine.
Fucking with food and medical care is what gets the marxist kill counts into the 10's of millions.
Honestly, there's not much to lose IMO. Sure, there are some really cool, cutting edge things which are not doable without massive medical infrastructures (cancer treatments, non-invasive surgery robots, stuff like that), but the biggest things that modern medicine have found out - or rediscovered in a number of cases - are mostly going to survive a collapse unless it is truly massive.
If we can get rid of most heart disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity and substance abuse that will solve a huge proportion of western medical issues and if a massive collapse hits it will forcibly get rid of those (one way or another) pretty quickly.
And a lot of the knowledge we've gained (hygiene, nutrition, antibiotics, how the body works, etc.) all that should survive. Sure, you won't be able to just pop down to the drug store to pick up a prescription when SHTF but just having a few extra tubes of topical antibiotic in a first aid kit will help a ton and hopefully last a bit - at least for immediate family - until things stabilize.
Anaesthetic and access to basic medical supplies will be the biggest loss for 80% of non lethal things I'd say.
Just having something dry, sterile and wrapped for a wound is pretty helpful and not easily replaced, especially if infection is a larger threat too.
For anything major accident related, losing Xrays and MRI's will be a problem too. We're already losing them you're just probably not aware. Most reports are very subjective based on the person writing the report.
For unprepared people, especially in cities, yes. (And MRIs may well be hard to get back). But, doing a little study and/or preparation now, sterile bandages, painkillers and limited anesthetics are quite doable. I'd say it's probably better (and certainly easier) to stock up now (it's not like bandages or gauze goes bad) but if you want to make a sterile bandage take a section of cloth, wash it, and then either have it under a hot iron for a few minutes or wrap it in foil and put it in an oven at lower heat for a bit.
Painkillers and anesthetics are a bit harder (especially general anesthetics), but asprin and nitrous oxide were developed in the mid-1800s (not to mention a wide range of less effective but still better than nothing alternatives depending on your local area), and medical xrays in the late 1800s. Is it possible that things get bad enough that we regress 100+ years? Maybe in certain areas but I don't see it happening universally and it's not hard to stock up now so that even if things do go horribly you and yours are set for a couple years. At my local grocery store, I can pick up gauze at 50 cents a yard, a box of bandaids for $8, and (depending on your preferred dosage and brand) painkillers at <$10 per hundred.
If those things are available, remember they rely on a complex system to get to your local store, will the quality remain the same? what use is buying a non sterile bandage?
Someone will likely steal your supplies too if they get into that short supply.
My suburban high school was in the top 1000 back when I was attending it.
I checked it recently, and it dropped down to about the 3 or 4000s now.
Conveniently enough, the demographics of the high school changed significantly. It used be majority white with a notable hispanic minority (like, 25-30 percent iirc or a bit more). Now its majority hispanic. Make of that what you will.
I would take hispanics as neighbours any day of the week over what's coming next, that's how bad it's going to be getting in the UK.
Hispanics can be a mixed bag. The main issue though is how totally unfiltered it is because the propaganda and policy push by Democrats to give illegals as wide of a berth as they can muster. The sheer numbers are staggering, and they end up reproducing like crazy once they're over the border.
Which ends up playing out like Trump's infamous line "They're not sending us their best."
I did write criminal :P

Most important essay of the decade. Everything is going to fall apart.
Websites don't work any more.
I haven't been able to put any credit card into Delta from Android for years. Get some bizarre error message on each one even though they are all valid.
Oftentimes, I'll be in an online shop, I'll go to checkout, and it will ask me to login. After figuring out login, it blows away my entire cart (I guess substituting whatever data my account had which was an empty cart, versus the session they had going with my pseudonymously which contained items). You know that costs them money. You never want to take a cart away from a customer who is about to buy.
The lack of specificity in error messages too, instead of specific errors it's always "unknown error please try again later"

I know this is weird but if you're on a normie website try using Microsoft Edge, yes I know ew Microsoft but for some reason on normie/boomer net if you go through the process again with that browser it might magically work. I've found that was a weirdly common work around for sites that would break on stuff like Brave. Silly things like customer service chat pop ups not going up correctly and so on all tied to what type of browser you're using.
It could be. I have to have all kinds of stuff in my normal browser so I'm not tracked. Although when you are making transactions, there's little that you can hide.
I've done it before.
Another website that didn't work is eBay. It wouldn't let me place any bids. But their app, for some reason, does. I even contacted eBay about this saying it didn't work in Edge or Brave or Chrome. They said to use the app.
Aye. In general, some websites just don't want to cooperate at all with anything except for Chrome and maybe Edge. I think usually it's because of certain automated privacy settings that conflict with whatever half-assed implementation a site's using for certain functionality.
If they have not yet outsourced it to AI that will be the next step, and modern medicine is tech support, you just can't turn people on an off again xD
Fuck can you imagine how bad that's going to get? AI going and randomly giving the wrong diagnosis to a patient and writing out prescriptions for shit and morons will fall for it all thinking it's real. Yep, no, fuck it, mountains or just anywhere where the dystopia hasn't really reached.
In some ways it might be better than a lot of the clueless shit tier doctors that patients have to put up with. Although at least with a doctor you can yell at them or get them into trouble for their fuck ups.
No need to imagine it, I read the white papers (was while back so the amount of errors could have changed, but it was fun :D)
OP will like this article:
https://www.palladiummag.com/2023/06/01/complex-systems-wont-survive-the-competence-crisis/
That's been posted twice now lol.
Whoops.
Smart people around here.
You're just scratching the surface here unfortunately.
DIE is racing us towards a competency catastrophe.
You think it's annoying that call center reps can't pronounce English, ok, but that's the least of your worries.
Panes are going to start falling from the skies. Infrastructure is going to fail. Power grids will shut. The state systems will turn openly corrupt. Everything everywhere is going to get worse and more dangerous. Your town will increasingly resemble cities south of Sahara.
And you'll have the abandonment of meritocratic standards to thank for it.
I suppose there's a chance AI will advance in time to save us from the worst, but that's assuming the AI doesn't kill us itself. And anyway, woke programming won't allow AI to do anything about the crime, nor stop you from becoming an untouchable caste, so either way you're fucked.
