For all the concern trolling about muh crime rate done by annoying bougie people, I think it will pale in comparison to what's coming. I think the AI bubble bursting is gonna be the flashpoint where all these other crises converge into one and give a lot of people nothing left to lose, even the ones with nice lifestyles who think they're immune to it. Tons of people fell and never got back up after 2008.

When that happens the democrats are just going to see a bunch of pissed off, desperate people and sit on their asses and wait for them to crawl to them for help like they've been doing forever. That's the beauty of liberal democracy, it's a bear race where you don't have to be the fastest, you simply don't have to be the slowest.

It'll blow up in their faces of course. Or maybe not, and they get to fritter away another 4 years and then do it all again.
