I believe we're in an unprecedented time and very big things are going to happen in the next few years. It seems that the west nearing a tipping point with the far-left and far-right both growing at what seems to be an exponential rate.
Is there going to be another 1930's type clash? Are we headed for uncharted waters or am I suffering from confirmation bias and naivety? I don't believe the west has ever seen times like these so oldfags set me straight or back me up.

Not an old fag, but my father lived through the great depression, you best start hoarding food that lasts for a long time Leaf, just in case.....
I'm an elderfag 27-year-old and it's always happening
The financial system is on a brink of destruction. Major chaos will ensue. Degeneracy is on it's highest levels and the far right should be put down before they destroy the kike plan of nwo

I already have lots of rope and other useful tools but I wonder if i'm being hopelessly optimistic.
>>79706512
>lots of rope
You seem prepared for the right kind of happening.
>>79706229
Think worse, sunshine.
Much worse.
Old fag here
I'm 49
The hardest modern redpill to swallow is that modern life modern society is one driven by the illusion of collapse. It's always been like this and it never changes. By keeping people fearful and greedy for potential scarcities it stops them being rational and unified.
It's always been like it has now.
However, this is the closest people have come to making it stop thanks to technology.

REEEEEEEE
>>79707135
you can't use 4chan until you're 18 so that would put oldfags at at least age 30 which is exactly who i'm looking to answer
>>79707203
>you can't use 4chan until you're 18
>>79706942
I want to believe you but this modern society has only existed for a few decades. Only three decades if you count the fall of USSR and widespread technology as a new era.
>>79707283
wasn't really looking for age per se either just people who've been following happenings for a decade or so
12th year on 4chan. Been here since the first iteration of /new/.
Nothing is fucking happening, it's the same shit we have always had. The pendulum is just swinging the other way now.
AMA
>>79707386
so you're looking for people to share their experiences from the 1930s and how they compare to today?
>>79707442
>The pendulum is just swinging the other way now.
To the right I assume? I feel like the pull from the far-left and far-right are both growing ever stronger by the day and this societal rift is nearing 1930's tier.
>>79707442
What's it like to make shit up on the internet?
>>79707520
I've been on pol only since 2012 and only started following current events and history within the last two years. I feel like i'm witnessing something snowballing in the western world but part of me also believes nothing ever happens, well except brexit, trump winning the gop, fn almost winning, austria about to elect a nazi tier president and the far-right wave sweeping Europe. Then there's the left which seems absolutely out of control as well. Hmm.
>>79707203
you cant watch porn until youre 18 either
>>79707520
does this answer your question?
>>79707556
Yeah to the right. People are not afraid to get called racist anymore and the truths about certain things like migrants/islam/EU policies/etc. are coming out.
>>79707583
Would be useless since we are all anons.
>>79707331
Even before the fall of the USSR propaganda ran hot about all out nuclear war, invasions, and spies destroying culture, and markets collapsing.
It's like 1984 some names are changed but the song remains the same.
Injecting fear into the public mind is the single greatest weapon our rulers have. It's why it's so important to be rational and not be like this >>79707135
Oldfag here.
Yes things have gotten worse, and we are reaching a tipping point. It's not going to be pretty.
In the 50s, Suez, Korea, 60s cuba, Kennedy, Vietnam, 70s, nukes nukes nukes, energy shortages more Vietnam, Cambodia, 80s, yay money money money Russians in Afghanistan, 90s yay money money money Gulf War, 00s 9/11 more war in Middle east.. no, nothing changes. Now you've got the internet to talk about it, that's all.
>>79706229
You do realize that people rioted - cities burned - all over the United States and Western Europe during the late 1960s, right? That the Russians funded terrorist organizations like the Italian Red Brigades, IRA, and the Red Army Faction that actually went out and killed people to try and spark a revolution?
The only thing that makes this seem special is that you're all a bunch of kids who grew up after the Cold War. Fuck, most of you probably have no functional memory of 9/11 or life before the iPhone.
>>79707777
Because /pol/ is a giant containment board: it's an echo chamber by design. You might as well think cartoons are suddenly popular by browsing /co/. People are getting upset - they've lived spoiled lives over the past two decades and now they're lashing out like children. This happens every couple of decades; you wait it out and rebuild afterwards.
>>79707777
so are you going to ask a question or is this more of a cathartic thing for you?
>>79707794
i guess, maybe. not really. it's just the natural progression of a problem that started earlier
>>79707859
whatever you do, don't listen to this retard. rational is what they want to be so you can easily be controlled. free speech sometimes needs to be limited? yeah, that's rational! civilians shouldn't have guns because they are a danger? yeah, that's rational! the government has your best interests in mind and wouldn't possibly turn on you? yep, that's rational too!
>>79706229

stop talking you worthless faggot. people like you are the problem and i think you might be a shill
>This happens every couple of decades; you wait it out and rebuild afterwards.
your life experiences are a small blip on the greater picture of civilization. you haven't lived long enough to draw any correlations or patterns worth shit yet here you are thinking you have some greater authority or knowledge about something. you don't. people like you are the biggest problem. you try and convince people that with age automatically comes wisdom and you know god damn well this isn't the problem. you're still the same little shit you always were except with a wrinkly ball sack

b2reddit you stupid pussy where you can continue to be "rational" and surrender all your guns and rights to your government
we're trying to clean up a mess you dumb asses created by being "rational" aka complacent
