Natural disease (perhaps anti-bacteria resistant bug)
Nanotechnology
Climate Change
Deleterious mutation load (most dangerously lowering IQ)


Of those:

-Natural disease/virus now

-In the near future I'd add bio-weapons (eg engineered super virus that kills mostly everyone except the incels, but they die out naturally via non procreation)

-Distant future I'd add Climate Change to the list

-Very distant future I'd add AI.

Is your DML a shout-out to the film Idiocracy(2006)?

What is he implying by saying "except incels"? That if some super-virus STD was created undisciplined people like Robtard would die because they couldn't stop themselves from having sex; despite the threat of death?

Where on the #Existential Threats List should we put the Active Attempts by Leftist Fascists to Destroy Western Culture?

What with all the DANGEROUS Triggering they do and claim?

No that's when the new ice age begins, you don't think that a new ice age begins the second that the previous one ended do you? That's like saying a basketball game doesn't finish until you start your next game.

You're wrong. I don't know what to tell you. The correct information is in the post you quoted.

When the glaciation disappears from both the northern and southern hemispheres, you can then state that the ice age has finally ended.

I suppose if you're talking about the Quaternary glaciation then we are currently in a interglacial period, but going by the 100,000 years rule, this warming period should have ended about 2000 years ago.

So Robtard is conceding to the fact that he would rather have sex, knowing that there's a chance he could contract a deadly disease, than sit it out for a while?

AI isn't doing shit in the near future. People hype it up because few can actually understand what happens behind it.

I'd fear disease; anti-biotic resistant bacteria specifically.

This could also come as a result of chemical warfare.

People and the mob rule mentality.

Look at the state of the West now. People are willingly given away their freedoms just because someone else thinks differently from them. The older generations would be sick to see this.

That is why the Founding Fathers of the U.S knew to make this county a REPUBLIC. Not a DEMOCRACY!


eek!
