We prepare for the apocalypse we want, as said by someone or other.
So I guess the question is, why do we want an apocalypse?
Fascists, the antichrist, blood drinking oligarchs, the singularity, capitalism, socialism, global warming, everybody knows there’s someone out to get them.
I guess it’s easier that way.
Look at the world, and repeat after me
Look at your life, and repeat after me.
The devil made me do it.
