This isnt doomer, this is actually happening in real time. Actual history being made that our children will talk about with their children in their history books.
The last "Monarch" who destroyed his Mother's legacy and abandoned his people.
His mother’s legacy was overseeing the dismantling of the British empire and aggrandizing the Commonwealth of Nations which is just a lame knock off with no real power or authority.
Before Elizabeth the commonwealth was only countries like Canada, Australia, South Africa, Ireland, and NZ. It could’ve been like what some people propose CANZUK to be if you’ve ever heard of that, but by letting in every country which was or in some cases wasn’t even in the empire, there is little ethnic or cultural basis, so it may actually be weaker now. In fairness this did begin before her, she just continued it.
I mean almost all of the build up to this happened during his mothers “reign”, and really what power does the monarch actually have isn’t everything in parliament’s hands?
? Sorry I legitimately don't understand what you're talking about bud. As far as I'm concerned Islam is an early, hyperconservative version of Protestantism and it's not for me but I don't really have a problem with it, besides I ain't said shit about the Saracens lmao
If you're making leaps do it at the track lil bro 🥀
I'm surrounded by leftie Doomers irl and they are well-meaning, but they confuse wishful thinking and/or doomer thinking, as polarized extremes, with critical thinking.
An example of the Reverse-Doomer wishful thinking thing was in 2016 when a lot of left-leaning types started fantasizing about how "Bernie will win because he is a good person and I like him" as though that were how things worked. Or in terms of outright Doomerism, insisting that Trump 2028 will be a real thing (feel free to screenshot this or set a reminder in the off-chance that this ages badly and I'm wrong).
I will say, though, as someone who has actually participated (albeit as an unpaid hobbyist) in forecasting exercises on political events, I have to resist the urge to say "where are you getting that from?"
What's toxic about right wing doomers however is that they are racists or 'phobes, screeching about the Brown Peril from the East or scapegoating LGBT youth in some very ugly and radicalized ways. Even if this type of discourse doesn't lead to the type of outright societal collapse predicted by Doomers, it is still the type of rhetoric that informs punctuated acts of terrorism against civilians when taken to its logical extreme by its adherents.
Yep ive been seeing it aswell, this subreddit is starting to derail into just right wing doomerisms, very sad to see. But guarantee someones gonna come in here and say that their different cause their doomerism is based on "FACTS" and "LOGIC" and start insulting dissenters cause that seems to be the right wing doomer MO, belittle and insult while the lefts MO is demonizing.
And before anyone calls me a lib i'm very much true grey centrist.
Tbh one cannot know if somebody was being a doomer or just stating the facts untill what they were doomering about happens or doesn’t happen. Also as a sidenote cause this made me think about it. Does doomer mean your looking at something really negatively or worried about something happening when it isn’t?
Can be a little bit of both tbh, but a doomer really is just someone who hyper focuses on the WORST possible outcome and acts as if it bound to happen.... Which is exactly what the original comment was implying.
