i distrust establishment narratives as a default, but i have no special knowledge around dinosaurs one way or the other. most of the public believes that dinosaur bones exist in whole form instead of being interpreted resin casts of empty spaces "discovered" by rockefeller funded "scientists", so there is certainly a major disconnect between public understanding vs. what's purported to be real. oil as "fossil fuels" is a fake label

in general, i've been a neo-malthusian (and subsequently peak-oilist, with the peak pushed off due to fracking advances and cheap financing) for a long time -- natural resources are drastically depleting, world population is too large, the public numbers are cooked, EROEI which powers industrial civilization is collapsing, pressures are forcing the elites toward population reduction and neofeudalism -- but i'm not so sure these days. the abiotic theory of oil suggests that it regenerates, although perhaps not as fast as the reserves are being exploited. to some extent natural resource limitations are being used as excuse for elite power centralization, so its hard to know whats real and whats fake. but the dramatic decrease in biodiversity and wild animal populations seems real to me

This is why they have periodic cullings to keep the herd in check and historically we’re due likely in our lifetime, something they’re likely testing with Ukraine rn to be hybridized with world war 1 meat grinder and biologics

Again, the goat sacrifice that the Jews did on the holiest day of the year Yom Kippur coming up was to appease Azazel who brought ill-begotten technology and forbidden arts like metallurgy, warfare to humans not Satan/The Adversary - even cosmetics and looksmaxxing

I had this theory that immigration policy the past couple decades has been a sort of neo-colonialism with first world countries robbing former colonies of their bodies. Decision makers saw our population trajectory and decided to start importing consumers. They don't care about nationality or culture, they just want bodies. Not that initiative is cooked so we're allowed a politician like Trump to come in and close off the border.

We've switched from bringing in new consumers to prop up gdp during the population crunch to betting on AI making everything more efficient to keep GDP up.

I think population decline is the biggest unnoticed aspect of our era. We still live with this mindset of growth and needing more housing etc. But that's actually dead. Our children will live with a constricting society. I drove thru the midwest recently and saw lots of towns all boarded up. I think that's the future. Fewer small towns (at least vibrant ones) and greater concentration.
