Nah. It might be collapsing more like The Great Dieoff (claimed in 1970) scheduled for the late 1980's. That had the advantage of the environmental degradation built in that has only gotten worse since then. Peak oil had its shot in 2005, but that was a real fart in a whirlwind. Nuke war has always been pretty reasonable, but that one hasn't gone anywhere in half a century either, but we can cross our fingers because it could happen fast nd give folks what they've been looking for like...tomorrow.
I'm good mostly with the environmental angle nowadays. Certainly politics isn't even on my "here we go again with the end of the world" scenarios. Yellowstone going BOOM has a better chance than politics. And Planet X. Again.
