Optimistic calling it "middle period" at this point.
Took the Roman empire ages to die after it was already dead.
They didn't have the internet. Or Jets.
It'll happen much faster here.
It may even still be here if not for that rat fuck Ricimer.
It's also awfully optimistic to imply that we're all still going to have internet access afterwards.
The internet will survive the fall of the United States
The meme isn't about the fall of the USA. It's about the fall of capitalism.
Why wouldn't the internet survive the fall of capitalism? It started in universities wanting to share information faster, not for profit.
Because the fall of capitalism is unlikely to be peaceful and attacking core infrastructure like the Internet is a tactic that either side may wish to use in an armed conflict. Not the best reason, maybe, but there it is.
Ummmm.... did you read it? United States. iirc thats the US in USA.
Dont get me wront capitalism and other problems are bigger than america and what not. But this meme is specifically about the USA and cocaine.
Edit: IN not IS
It says "priestly caste called businessmen". Ergo, for that to be a thing of the past, there need to be no more businessmen, not no more USA.
This is so accurate. Like priests, business types possess a specialist knowledge that misrepresents an entirely made up complexity as arcane truth that the plebs could never understand.
Like priests, their real job is social control in service of the powerful. The early mesopotamian temples have some of the earliest examples of accounting because they were largely for craft production and resource storage and management.
And just like every delusional ceo, they claim responsibility for anything good that happens and blame others for anything bad.
The priests I was thinking of take ayahuasca and communicate to spirits while in a fursuit.
Sounds like a chill weekend tbh
Priests are just cthulhu cultists in modernity, preaching the end of the world so that you give up now and those in power stay in power. It's why a pious life does not lead to priesthood, only a college degree.
So few understand god that they don't even understand the sciences that formulate their beliefs. Of all creeds.
Saw this on here one day
That link gives me a 404 error
Weird... it is for me now too, but I watched it right after I posted that comment
Cruelty Squad lore be like
if you wanna hang out, you've got to take her out
Are we talking about the Spacing Guild?
The spice melange physically mutates you, so it's more likely to be meth or krokodil.
Gta5 covers the topic well.
