    with the investment bubble how it is and the U.S. economy how it is I don’t think there will be any winners from the collapse except for the Chinese really

    not that I’m saying “don’t pop it” just like haha this-is-fine i live here. We bought a house a year ago and money is increasingly stressful. If my partner loses her job, that’s it for the house, I can’t keep up with it on my own. And shit, they might get rid of me if they have to “tighten the budget” since I just serve vegan food for lunch. I tell myself I’ll always have a job because kids will always be going to college but that isn’t a fuckin’ guarantee. I’m just in constant doomer mode so that at least I expect the hell we live in

      I feel you, the Russia-Ukraine War already cost me my first job and now the AI bubble will likely cost me my second.

      But financial stability was always a fiction not a fact for me. The more important thing is that it will produce a large source of revolutionary fervor, which a organized far left can direct to victory.
