When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion — when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing — when you see money flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors — when you see that men get richer by graft and pull than by work, and your laws don’t protect you against them, but protect them against you — when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice — you may know that your society is doomed.

Then maybe sex shouldn't have been made enjoyable so only those who want kids have it (and I've never had it before you ask). But I guess that's another topic.

Civilizations are always in danger of collapsing. It really wouldn't take much at all. Power goes out for a month or the water purification facilities go down for a week and you got you some doom.

Re: How Can You Tell when a Civilization is in Danger of Collapse?
Depends on what you mean by "civilization." You could make the case that almost all of modern history has been one contagious civilization. However, if you mean modern nation-state, generally speaking they collapse due to replacement population scenarios. Not so much because the native population is not breeding, but because they have expansionist policies that kill off vast swaths of their most viable breeders. The Romans found this out the hard way. It was a good run, but they eventually depleted their military nucleus with expansionist wars, i.e. their men were all on the frontiers. Eventually, Rome was forced to hire mercenaries to defend their holdings and the Gauls ended up sacking Rome.

I'm beginning to feel the same way. I know it's a fucked up position to take but it is what it is. The world has an uncanny knack to wear you down. You try to live your life in peace but people just don't respect others anymore.

I'm ready for war. I'm tired of living in a shithole.
