      We have a flu pandemic every year, we just slap the label of “seasonal flu” on top and forget the half a million people that die covid-cool

        if it does what it potentially could do it would take us from the brink

        i have two frightening predictions about modern humanity “lucking” out from shit

        pandemics used as social shocks to slow tragjectories towards political self destruction

        and a limited nuclear war essentially forcing us to do something about climate change

        COVID was/is just a taste. the other thing hasn’t happened yet.

        i hope im wrong. until we get socialism these are the only things that will stir humanity and basically be a large scale sacrifice to prevent total extinction
