A dissenting voice that might of interest here is Peter Zeihan. He claims that the US is one of the few places that won’t collapse in the coming decade. I do claim here is right, but his analysis is, if nothing else, interesting. His book, The End of the World Is Just the Beginning, is an easy enough read.

This depends greatly on the working definition of collapse. If your mere existence becomes illegal it doesn't really matter if the economy is technically still functioning.

I guess if you are are straight white make you will probably be ok. Most of my friends are women and/or LGBTQ, and almost all of them would be considered enemies by the current administration.

Geez. I loathe the administration, but I would really prefer it if people on my side quit it on the hyperbole.

In no sense has the current administration expressed that “women” are enemies.

Feminists, like myself, need to quit it on the arguing “anyone who is anti-feminism is anti woman”.

It’s the exact same rhetorical flourish as “anyone who is anti-Zionism is anti-Semitic”.

In this era of Trump’s statements bearing no relationship to truth, we can’t sink to the same lows. Or the bullshitters have already won.

I wasn't clear. My friends are all vehemently anti trump. That's why he would consider them enemies. Not because they are women.
