Do you have any idea what has happened ? This is the literal end of civilization.

Civilization is ending and you took time out of your apocalypse preparations to make a new account here? To write this? Where are your priorities?

A couple years from now when you are shivering in a cave you aren't going to be thinking "I may not have hoarded enough ivermectin but at least I got the last word on that HN thread".

End of civilization takes a lot more than high oil/fertilizer prices, even if it causes famine in poorer countries.

> End of civilization takes a lot more than high oil/fertilizer prices,

Energy prices factor into everything else, so there literally will be a lot more than higher oil/fertilizer prices.

The end of civilized relations between countries is a sign of sick and dying civilization and we are there already, plenty of other evidence too.

> even if it causes famine in poorer countries.

So compassionate of you.

In the worst there will be some people dying, a lot of people get poor and maybe democracies will be replaced by feudal structures. It's still far away from the end of civilization.

The sun will still rise after civilization ends too.
