Civilization is ending and you took time out of your apocalypse preparations to make a new account here? To write this? Where are your priorities?

A couple years from now when you are shivering in a cave you aren't going to be thinking "I may not have hoarded enough ivermectin but at least I got the last word on that HN thread".

End of civilization takes a lot more than high oil/fertilizer prices, even if it causes famine in poorer countries.

  • > End of civilization takes a lot more than high oil/fertilizer prices,

    Energy prices factor into everything else, so there literally will be a lot more than higher oil/fertilizer prices.

    The end of civilized relations between countries is a sign of sick and dying civilization and we are there already, plenty of other evidence too.

    > even if it causes famine in poorer countries.

    So compassionate of you.

    • In the worst there will be some people dying, a lot of people get poor and maybe democracies will be replaced by feudal structures. It's still far away from the end of civilization.
