Why do you think cash for clunkers happened ? All a plan to get rid of repairable, affordable, non government/corporation controlled cars. Its been the plan since the tech came along to make it possible.

2027, your car is mandated to be filled with cameras, mics, and air sensors , all of this sent to a database, or you cannot drive. This is not conspiracy. This is real.

Really hate this era. Can I skip ahead 70 years after collapse or go back 30 years please ?

If this takes 70 years to collapse humanity won't be here to witness it.

Nah, collapse is happening in 10 years or less. I figured 70 years would be where its all either rebuilt again or a total wasteland.

[–] 1k3@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

No - collapse is happening now and accelerating. Collapse is a process.

Ah. Understood and agreed on.
