Seeing the System, Not Just the Smoke

[…]this isn’t a pile-up of isolated crises. This is a metacrisis — a systemic failure driven by the logic that underpins our civilization. It’s not just that our tools are malfunctioning — it’s that our operating system is obsolete.

Emergent ensemble behaviour and evolutionary (including sexual selection for conspicuous consumption and winner-takes-all) are probably already sufficient explanation for us having near zero degrees of freedom collectively.

This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.

Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.
