In an era of climate anxiety, geopolitical tensions and rapidly advancing artificial intelligence, apocalyptic thinking is no longer confined to the fringes of society

Doesn't help that the US military are saying the recent war in Iran is to start a holy war and bring about the apocalypse. A death cult with nukes that want to take as many of us with them as they can. How is this being swept aside like every other "end of the world" theory? They're actively orchestrating it.

Fuck it. I’m going to live like this is my last day in my life. Anyone else fancy for a beer?

Worse: they are now using AI to determine targets, amd they want to make fully autonomous weapons

Unfortunately that's just a symptom of a much deeper problem. USA is almost completely brainwashed by zionism (christian, jewish, atheist, etc).

Yes, that's the point. They all want the apocalypse for various fashy/religious reasons.

I feel like it's not fair to get proof that we are killing the planet with CO² and instead of stopping it at a reasonable time, they instead hid that from everyone so that they could make it happen faster so that Jesus would come back. Our species is commiting suicide at the behest of a death cult with extraordinary PR. How are we all just allowing this ...?

Because we don't feel the heat on our backs yet.

Who exactly has been saying, officially on behalf of the U.S. military, that this is the U.S. military's goal for the war?
