Who cares guys, soon food shortages will start. In Europe they started rationing fuels. In Australia gas stations are out of diesel.
We are trully doomed.

A bit tangential: it’s narratives like this which can create sudden crashes on the stock market.
Speculation at some point meets reality. This is when market crashes.
So, your proof is that some dire predictions in the past, about other things, by other people, were sometimes true?

This is incorrect.
far be it for me to question your prophetic capacities. i wonder, do you have any historical examples or logic-based arguments that our doom of nigh?
Oil (diesel), gas and fertilizer is the backbone of the worlds agriculture. With shortages of all 3 the food production goes down dramatically. Even if the war ends today it will take years to bring back production to previous levels. In my opinion the effects will start showing up in food prices in the next few weeks once food producing countries realize the food shortages could happen they will start restricting exports.
why are chefs baking bread? there's buildings to construct.
Not sure why you are getting downvoted. The scariest one is the fertilizer situation which means less productive harvests, which means hunger.
Because it's whataboutism which is basically propaganda. It doesn't add anything to the discussion, and if we put too much emphasis on other unrelated (but still important) issues, the site wouldn't exist at all.
Example: Why are you posting here when you could be solving world hunger? Don't you care about starving children?
