  • There are no accepted answers to your question. However, I like to think that string theorists have it right and matter is sort of crushed so completely that you’re just left with a roiling sea of primordial energy - a scalar field, aka, a new universe. It is in my opinion likely that black holes are the holographic medium on which a universe can be projected. String theory supports this thought; it posits that black holes are “fuzz balls”, aka: a mass of unimaginable energy vibrating in many dimensions, aka: a universe. It is a simple, elegant explanation for why the universe exists, and where it came from.

    But that is all extremely hypothetical. Like I said, there are no answers here… yet. There’s a lot of good science to back up that thought, but none of it is falsifiable with our current understanding of physics. We probably need a theory of quantum gravity to start answering these questions.














  • If there’s a civil war in the US, then the country will just tear itself apart. The global economy will completely collapse and society as we know it will come to an end. Maybe Russia and China will be able to re-build from the ashes since they try to be independent from the US, but China is completely dependant on US the US purchasing their exports, and Russia is largely dependent on imports from Europe. I think by the time they can rebuild they’ll be 100% fucked by climate change.

    The only method of survival is a stable US while the economy decentralizes into the rest of the world. Anything else is an extinction level event. It didn’t have to be this way, but the US allowed billionaires to hoard all that wealth instead of the investing it in public goods like technology and transportation and now we have to pay the price.

    Have you read Wheel of Time? The plot in that fictional story is that these patterns of societal booms and busts are cyclical. Humanity rebuilds into the second age which collapses in a different way, and humanity rebuilds again and again and again, over and over, forever. The idea is that humanity can tell every possible story this way. I think we’re at the end of this age but people don’t know it yet. Whether or not we’ll be lucky enough to get a second age of humanity is anyone’s guess; I believe in reincarnation, so hopefully, but probably not.
