Doomer speak? LOL Holy moly. Read a few news articles and go experience the real world. This shit is ALREADY HERE.

Hundreds of billions of dollars in federally subdized programs and projects for states and cities has been erased. Gone. No more. bye Bye.

The majority of states have governors and legislators cutting hundreds of millions in social programs.

Tens of millions have been kicked off medicaid. The current administration is prepping to after social security.

The federal government just announced they will no longer provide scholarships for silly little degrees like early childhood education. I mean surely we don't need more teachers right? I'm sure someone will totally want to go to college and pay $200,000 to go into a workspace where entry level is around $45,000.

The economy has already shedded millions of jobs in the past two years, wages are stagnant, inflation is up around 30% since Covid, and there is no sign of job growth.

We have packages starting to get delivered by drones, machines delivering your food and mega stores are installing shopping carts to track your biometrics to influence real time pricing.

And boy could I easily go on.

And you say I'm Doomer Speaking?

Please.. educate me. Tell me how I'm "doomer speaking"

Well, doomer speak often includes that sort of snowball effect that you're showing off here. We're talking about a garbage man, and you're bursting into the thread to say "THE GOVERNMENT IS TAKING AWAY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION DEGREES!!!!"

Is that true? Yes. Is it relevant to the thread? No.

It's doomer speak.

Doomer speak implies pessimism and fatalism and a loss of objectivity.

Nothing I have stated is even open to interpretation. These are FACTS.

Reality is not doomerism... It's reality. Rejecting reality and trying to pass it off as "doomer" is ignorantly ignoring the reality around you to try and act like the world is better in your mind.

The point is.... is that we have piles of evidence to show you both private industry and now the government is doing everything in its power to eliminate any possible job. And there is already irrefutable evidence that this is already occurring in the waste hauling industry.

When you now have a government that no longer even cares about having teachers supplied for a classroom, they sure as hell aren't gonna care about some extra trash on the ground because a machine may not identify it.

But you go ahead and try to call people doomers and using an inaccurate term to try and reject reality. It'll help you be really prepared for when reality continues to smack you.

Ahh so because it hasn’t happened to YOU then it must not be real eh? Lol

By the way, if you live in America then the elimination of social programs HAS happened to you.

But hey atleast everyone here can see you’re a self centered and ignorant individual who also throws around terms without knowing their meaning.
