I'm very, very familiar with the collapse community and how they view the world and if I'm totally honest if their ideology resonated with me at all I'd just go blow my brains out (like so many collapse people do)
It's a very bleak, hand wringing ideology that offers nothing to anyone so I'll just say I disagree. On the eve of the Russian revolution (1913-1917) there was a foreboding sense of doom amongst the middle classes. All poetry took on a bleak tone, artists became absolutely nihilistic and hedonistic and all sorts of end of the world scenarios were propagated amongst the middle classes because they understood Tsarism was dying but didn't realise something else was being born.
In the 80s it was the spectre of nuclear war as USSR died
Doomerism in US is just another manifestation of this inability to cope with the collapse of US empire.
Which is why (US)doomers don't believe anything can be done to change humanitys course
