So you're honestly still using some subjective "doomsday" website as a source - the same one that has been claiming that the end is nigh for a decade?
The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists is a nonprofit organization concerning science and global security issues resulting from accelerating technological advances that have negative consequences for humanity. The Bulletin publishes content at both a free-access website and a bi-monthly, nontechnical academic journal. The organization has been publishing continuously since 1945, when it was founded by Albert Einstein and former Manhattan Project scientists as the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists of Chicago immediately following the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The organization is also the keeper of the symbolic Doomsday Clock, the time of which is announced each January.

Crikey Biggles is on itIt's not a website. It's the bulletin of Atomic Scientists, founded by Einstein, Oppenheimer and others, and they've been keeping track of how close we are to Armageddon since well before the internet was a thing:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulletin_of_the_Atomic_Scientists#Founders_and_contributors
The current members are:
So, it's the opinion of several Nobel laureates, Ivy league professors, PhD's etc.
You know; campaigners a lot smarter than you or I.
They literally publish peer reviewed academic papers for scientific journals.
I know you like to get your information from grifters on Instagram, but the above source is a tad more reliable than yours, and is far from just 'a website'.
The clock has been ticking closer to midnight for a while now, with existential threats like climate change, the prospect of WW3 and Artificial intelligence all present and threatening extinction of the human race, and in an environment further destabilized by misinformation and disinformation online and the deteriorating global order to deal with the above threats.
But hey. What would those guys and girls know. Keep getting your info from Rogan and Tate. They're the ones you should be listening to.
The Collins familyWho is 'they'?
Hahaha ohmygod, you still belive there's pedo shit on the laptop.Give it a few months and we’ll see. The real question is why hasn’t Hunter been charged with the other stuff on the laptop? Corruption, pedophilia, selling State secrets, She’ll companies, etc.
Ahhh that takes me back, vintage QAnonNothing we say or do is going to change what’s coming!
Isn't he secretly President right now?I’ll guess that we’ll find out in his next term when Trump is president again.
Nothing we say or do is going to change what’s coming!
It was in a folder named "Pictures of cats" so they obviously missed it. DuhHahaha ohmygod, you still belive there's pedo shit on the laptop.
The laptop that Trump's DoJ (fair's fair) had for 12 months before the 2020 election
The laptop that just got officially entered into evidence for Hunter's trial
But sure you're probably right, all those Republicans who have been desperately trying to squeeze the Bidens for years now probably just missed it or something
That's a fair cast list of giants of the scientific community there to be fair. However, having a "clock" set by people who, despite clearly being experts on how nuclear weapons work, don't have a crystal ball to determine when/if they will be used is still pretty subjective. There is no equation to explain human psychology or geopolitics. Climate change can be somewhat modeled mathematically, but no models are showing that we are "minutes from midnight".It's not a website.

Well we've been told that the end is nigh since the 90s m8... or probably for all of recorded human history, now that I think about it. It's like an innate religious-style trait.It's an opinion agreed.
Held by people who are geniuses in multiple fields, from physics to geopolitics, to information technology, to environmental science to history etc.
And of course you can make an educated guess as to the future. Humans are pretty darn predictable.
All nuclear treaties have been torn up (START, SALT etc). NATO are currently literally arming a European State at war with Russia, who are actively threatening the use of nuclear weapons, while conducting fly overs of Europe. Russia are armed with Hypersonic missiles, drastically reducing the decision-making time between launch detection (or an error on the screens at NORAD) and making a decision on response.
Meanwhile the USA and Europe (plus India and others) are democratically backsliding or embracing the far Right.
Disinformation and misinformation is flooding the internet. Each year the planet gets warmer, and new diseases are springing up like wildfire on a near annual basis, with new disease vectors to travel through.
Meanwhile tech companies are working furiously on AI, yet another existential threat to human existence,
Were literally one mistake from Armageddon. You do see that right?
Since the 80's and before. Just bet that he/she is wrong. You cannot lose.Well we've been told that the end is nigh since the 90s m8... or probably for all of recorded human history, now that I think about it. It's like an innate religious-style trait.
I'm not saying you're wrong, the exponential advance in AI seems dangerous af. With nukes I would hope the concept of MAD continues to work out. Even the most sociopathic of the wealthy and powerful don't want an outcome that would harm them.
After editing your post it’s now a pretty good post.It's an opinion agreed.

Europe seems to be, but if so, wouldn't it then benefit the left to think about what they've done the last few years and alter their tactics as people are clearly not liking things?Meanwhile the USA and Europe (plus India and others) are democratically backsliding or embracing the far Right.
Bill Clinton was president over 30 years ago.
The scary part is, he's still younger than both nominees!

Mass immigration seems to be the big ticket in a lot of places. Scale this shit back in a big way, get many voters back on side...
That, for many, isn't a 'race' thing like the left will want to make it too. It isn't sustainable what many countries are doing
What a day ET. On top of it all, the other great man had his $44.9B pay package from Tesla approved. Not quite as high an amount as he deserves, but ample.Do join me in celebrating this in Elon SRP thread. The meth-enjoying communists over there need a little more positivity in their lives, bless 'em, and it's once again up to us to provide it.Happy Birthday Mr President.
The great man announced he will go on the Logan podcast.
Rogan will probably have him on at some stage you’d think.
Younger people look to be leaning more and more to the right, which is really good.
Meth heads should be happy. Only 3 sleeps until Christmas!What a day ET. On top of it all, the other great man had his $44.9B pay package from Tesla approved.
