Not-So-Bold Prediction: The same people saving the Israel-Iran situation will lead to a world war now will be saying that the US Election will lead to a civil war in November. When neither happens, they will move on to saying the next current thing will cause a world/civil war.
PS I'm not saying "Nothing Ever Happens". That meme is retarded. Significant things happen all the time. They just don't change everything overnight.
Yes, we've been hearing this for a long time. I'm with you, I'm not saying nothing will happen, of course it will. The problem is that there is so much ego and attention seeking in doomsaying - and it is clear - you tend to get distracted and miss out on life, money, and many other things that otherwise would have enriched your life. This is classic on youtube, for example. It's fairly classic here since you get people who are dismissing the big gains of things like the S&P, BTC, etc - sadly yes the financial thing is the only thing you can do with planning on getting to other more sane countries as the west degrades.
I'm still looking for the last big thing that this site got right. All I see is Jim Rickards, Zeihan, Kyle Bass et al type doom saying. And as guest says, nothing happens. Meanwhile they dismiss the other posters who actually get things right. Even shun them. I find that really odd for a site that I presume might want to seek the truth and how things are.
