Yeah, people growing up the 80's heard about nuclear war and ozone layer and acid rain and lots of other stuff. People freaked out then too and lived recklessly thinking the future was lost. But most people just lived their lives and didn't go live in a bunker. That's what's going to happen here.
Life just sort of happens, even when the doomer memes get upvoted to the front page
Yup and life happens fast. You really only got like a good 15 years to "sorting hat" a good position in our society. Success is determined pretty fast between grades 10 to whenever we all finish school. If you're in an area with advanced classes then its even earlier.
