Can someone slip a note to Milspec Monkey to maybe not doom so fucking hard? I can't even watch his videos anymore. It's like listening to the Hindenburg crash broadcast over and over in slow motion.

To be fair, he has every right to doom. We get bad news, followed by worse news, over and over again. It's looking rough out there and he's a practical guy who also happens to think we're approaching the biblical end of the world, so his outlook is appropriate for his perspective.
That said, I don't think we're at the end of the world and I do hope and pray that people wake up and we get through this and come out better off, so my perspective is different than his, but I do understand why he and many others are of that mentality.
Even if it all reversed at this minute, the damage already done will take years to undo. People need to be aware of that at this point.
If only people realized that the fact Monkey is still up on YouTube means the endgame he is forecasting cannot be true.
Yeah, he gives some people a feeling of being in the know, which they like. I think he has great insights on certain things too. At the same time, I think he's resigned to the idea that the world will have ended in 10 years time and I don't think that's the case at all. With that perspective, one is destined to be a bit of a doomer and to expect things to continue to get worse.
The mainstream tends not to mind end times type predictions because they generally don't come true on the timeframe expected, which makes us all look unhinged and inaccurate.
