i feel this whole clock thing is such a liberal jerk off grounded in idealism not materialism. theyve been edging on 89 seconds to midnight since 2024.

i remember them moving the clock forward when north korea did some missile test a long time ago, as if north korea are the global aggressors ๐Ÿ™„. and of course it was 7 minutes to midnight during the cuban missile crisis.

trump threatening war on like 5 different countries is worrying, but i feel its mostly just MIC stock manipulation.

My suspicion is that the clock accelerated significantly because of climate change. Even if we don't nuke each other, climate change is a slow burn, self-inflicted destruction by humans. Either way, both scenarios lead to a hot extinction.
