Be brave and say it.

Well, yes. Humanity as a whole will probably stop sucking ass before it gets wiped out completely. Though it might cost us a few billion. Lives, I mean, not dollars.

Objection: feels like copeposting

Yeah, good luck fighting entropy.

Oh, absolutely. Humans will prevail. But right now the forest is on fire and many of us are the small bits on the forest floor that will be completely consumed by the oncoming fire. The destruction will test the perseverance of everything and the burgeoning that follows will be another minor Renaissance, like the period between WW2 and the Internet. When ignorance reigns and sequels are the only entertainment, expect the worst.

It's not an unpopular scenario - it's just completely improbable.

I don’t want to get along with anyone, but this is the outcome I hope for.

(Everyone just needs to come to the conclusion that I’m right and we’ll be able to live happily.)

I have no idea if we will, but I want to give it the best god damn chance we can get.

I'm very much doom driven, but the past has taught me that humans tend to work their way through it.

Nah, climate change will either finish us or make us beg for death.

How dare you? Drop that optimism and start panicking like the rest of us!

Depends on what one calls a good future. On a long enough timeline, everything (probably) decays to photons in an infinitely expanding universe. On an even muuuuch longer (est. 10 to the 10th to the 10th to the 1.2nd years) timeline, another iteration of this exact universe’s timeline spontaneously exists all over again.

I'll be brave and say that I don't think we deserve to.

This species deserves nothing but a quick extinction.

Edit: Sorry didn't realize what community this was

Don't think so. Nothing in history proves we can. This era seems to be on the way out so we we'll have some sort of collapse.

Fun fact: my exes great grandfather modeled for Rockwell for this painting.

I still think humans

Which humans? All roughly 8 billion humans across nearly 200 countries?

will work it out

Work what out?

in the end

The end of what? This century? History?

and have a good future

Define "good future." Good how? For whom? For everyone, equally?

Some humans will work it out for themselves.

That is all.

We must assuredly all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.

China also is "stable" but an authoritarian shit hole.

Life and the economy goes on but under an oppressive regime

I wish I could still belive that

For a little while. Then it's back to plundering and pillaging. :/

Here's what's going to happen.

Climate change will continue to ravage our planet, devastating vulnerable communities, fueling a great migration to areas that we can still use for agriculture. This scenario means that even if your area isn't terribly affected, you will be affected by the rise in immigration to your land.

As we all know, necessity is the mother of invention so this will lead us to:

-Finally bring to fruition stable fusion nuclear power.

-Invest in space travel on a scale we can't even imagine today.

-Place colonies on the moon.

-Figure out and eventually deploy terra forming operations to bring our planet back from the brink.

Also a lot of us will be psyched to find out that in the future, we'll want to build dwellings under ground, so yes, you may yet get to live in a hobbit hole, and have a small farm on your roof.

Oh yeah, and Greenland will be MAD valuable as an agricultural hub, which is why (I suspect) drumpf is trying (like a child would) to take it.
