Why the People get the COLLAPSE they deserve
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
You may already be familiar with a saying that says, people always get the government they deserve.
But here I'd like to introduce a variant of that, which is that the people also get the collapse they deserve.
And by the people, I don't mean some group isolated from you and me.
Unfortunately, we are also caught up in the aggregate stupidity of humanity, which, you know, the human race, by and large, even though it has a few very capable, intelligent people, by and large, it's...
It's a race of incredible stupidity at this point.
Sadly, no education, living on toxic junk foods, zombied out on pharmaceuticals, or recreational drugs, opioids, whatever.
Humanity's not that bright at this point, and so humanity's going to get the collapse that it deserves, and unfortunately, you and I are going to have to try to survive all of this that's coming.
So that's the topic of today's podcast.
I thank you for joining me.
This is Mike Adams here, the Health Ranger.
I'm the editor of naturalnews.com and a lab scientist.
I run cwclabs.com.
And I'm the author of the book, Food Forensics.
So with the title of this, you might be thinking, well, what kind of collapse does humanity deserve?
I mean, does anybody really deserve a collapse?
And I guess deserve isn't perhaps the right word.
It's actually more of cause and effect.
That you get the effects that you set into motion.
Because we live in a universe of cause and effect.
It's true in physics, it's true in chemistry, and it's true in economics.
And so if you have a bunch of people who keep voting for themselves, bigger and bigger handouts, more and more debt spending, larger pension payouts from pension funds that are going broke and so on, eventually you have repercussions.
Eventually the effects catch up with you.
And that's what we're facing now, because I believe we are very close to peak humanity.
Peak humanity, you say?
What is that?
Well, I think that we are at the largest population we're going to, well, we're close to it, that we're going to see ever.
I mean, we're over 7 billion people on the planet right now, and we're growing and expanding the population rapidly, especially in developing nations.
And yet the natural resources are running out, like the water aquifers that irrigate the food supply of the world.
This is true in China, India, and the United States.
Ever heard of the Ogallala water aquifer underneath Oklahoma, Kansas, Texas, parts of Colorado, and so on?
Yeah, it's dropping precipitously, and it's going to be out of water soon, and that means America's breadbasket will have No easy source of irrigation for all the food that they grow now.
But that's just one example.
You know, look at what we've done with Fukushima nuclear power plants.
The fact that if we have a grid-down scenario from a solar flare, which NASA says has about a 1% chance every year of happening, Then essentially all the circuits that control the nuclear power plants get fried by the Carrington event, you know, the electromagnetic effects of a giant solar flare, what's called EMP, electromagnetic pulse if it's detonated from a nuclear weapon.
And then the nuclear power plants go into meltdown, hundreds of them nationwide, because there is no backup plan Beyond the onsite generators and onsite batteries, which both rely on complex electronic circuit boards that will be fried.
And thus, we're going to have anywhere from 200 to 300 nuclear power facilities in North America going into a meltdown which will destroy the possibility of human life in the Northern Hemisphere for at least 300 to 400 years, and probably millennia, frankly.
So these are things that we, the human race, have set into motion.
We've set these things into motion.
We've built the nuclear power plants that run on the laws of physics.
You know, radioactive isotopes and how they give off energy with predetermined half-lives and so on.
It's all been set into motion.
And now all it takes is a trigger event to unleash absolute destruction and hell upon humanity.
Because humanity is pretty stupid, really, as a whole, isn't really looking at how to prevent these things or how to live in a sustainable way that will have a future for food or water or life, frankly, on the planet.
So we're at peak humanity.
And it's also true that we're at peak, you know, fill in the blank, like we're at peak pharmaceuticals.
Did you know that too?
I think that we are very close to the time in human history when the most pharmaceuticals are prescribed.
And the reason I believe this is because the pharmaceutical industry is already telling us that they've run out of antibiotics and superbugs are taking over in hospitals such as C.diff or MRSA, other superbugs as well.
They are killing people and the drug companies have no drugs against them and antibiotics are running out of strategies, chemical strategies to fight the superbugs.
So the era of pharmaceutical medicine is coming to an end.
It doesn't mean that it won't exist in some small form.
We'll always need anesthesia.
We'll always need some antibiotics.
We'll always need, you know, certain drugs for certain things.
We'll always need insulin, for example.
But The era of everybody being mass drugged from cradle to grave with anywhere from 5 to 15 prescription pharmaceuticals, that era is coming to an end.
There's so many things that are coming to an end.
I also believe that centralized government is coming to an end because we've seen now the folly of having a powerful centralized system telling you what to do.
When Trump is in office, the left goes absolutely insane because they don't like that president telling them what to do.
When Obama was in office, the right went similarly nuts because they didn't want Obama telling them what to do.
In essence, both parties agree that the idea of a central government dictating to you what you're supposed to think and how you're supposed to act and what you're supposed to buy or not buy because of tax incentives and so on, that that idea is really alien to human freedom.
This idea that a bunch of bureaucrats, hundreds or thousands of miles away, can sit there and decide what you should do It's a foreign concept to both conservatives and liberals.
Well, maybe foreign concept isn't the right word, but it's the antithesis of what most people actually believe about the way they want to run their lives locally.
So peak government may be upon us.
I see the collapse of centralized systems in the works.
It might be several years away or even a couple of decades away for all we know, but it's coming.
Peer-to-peer cryptocurrency has proven something very important, even though Bitcoin is in a massive mania.
Nevertheless, it has proven that You don't really need a centralized authority in order to engage in peer-to-peer transactions.
And if that's the case, why can't we have peer-to-peer democracy?
Or why can't we have decentralized local government, decentralized freedom?
Why do we need centralized totalitarian regimes ruling over us at every level, whether it's medicine and science or government or the money supply and economics?
So all these systems are at a peak right now.
I think you could almost say we're at peak everything.
It's a bit of an exaggeration, but the essence of it is true.
We're at peak everything.
So many systems that have been built up now are on the verge of either collapsing or being made obsolete.
Peak food, for example.
We are at the peak of chemical agriculture and mechanized agriculture, corporate-run agriculture.
And a lot of the things that that agricultural system depends on are disappearing, such as soils and soil microbes.
You know, the food is becoming contaminated even just because they're growing it in contaminated soils that have been heavily saturated with glyphosate and pesticides and so on.
You know, the water is running out.
We're at peak food.
I'm not sure that as a planet we can continue to grow more food under this chemical agriculture system that is really a short-term system.
So getting back to the premise of this, most humans living today are short-term thinkers, very short-term.
And as a result, they make decisions in the aggregate that cause humanity to be on a suicide path.
In other words, people get the collapse they deserve.
So back to pensions, back to, you know, peak food, peak oil, peak government, peak medicine, all these systems have been created.
By individuals who were thinking in the short term, often based on greed.
They wanted their big corporate bonuses.
They wanted their patents.
They wanted their power in a government office and so on.
They were thinking short term for their own gain, but not thinking long term for the interests of humanity.
So we're going to get the collapse we deserve.
Again, not you and me individually.
I don't think you and I deserve to be part of a collapse.
If we built a society, it would be sustainable.
But it wouldn't be popular because, see, popularity of ideas comes from the short-term gain.
If you want to get elected as a candidate, you have to be popular.
And how do you achieve that popularity?
Well, you give out stuff.
You hand out free stuff.
You expand the welfare state.
You promise more handouts, more government spending for more special interest groups.
If you do that enough, you'll get elected, regardless of the party you belong to.
And so the people vote for long-term financial suicide because they want the short-term benefits, again, because most people aren't that bright.
Which, actually, I need to refer to another podcast I recorded not long ago that said After the collapse of this society, as we rebuild a new society, we really need to think very carefully about who has the power to vote.
And I know this idea seems blasphemous to democracy, but look at where democracy has put us in terms of a collapse and financial suicide and stupidity in Washington and so on.
All those people were sent there by voters because the voters, by and large, are not qualified to vote.
So, to avoid this in the future, we need to make sure that people who are allowed to vote are qualified to vote.
We need a qualification system.
And even if it were just very basic, like you need to be able to read three paragraphs, parse the information, answer three basic questions about what you read, even that alone would eliminate probably 40% of the voters because they're absolute morons.
We must ensure that people can read information, parse information, and connect ideas in a rational way.
Intelligent way before they're allowed to vote.
Otherwise, what's the point?
You got to understand that our constitutional republic was founded in a day when people were actually more intelligent than they are today, vastly more intelligent.
They didn't have as much, obviously, science.
We didn't know as much science and medicine and all these facts and so on, you know, back in the 1700s.
But people were bright and They were sharp.
They had skills.
They were rational.
They weren't drugged out on ADHD drugs either, by the way.
And they weren't zombied out on fake news, CNN, or eating processed junk food like McDonald's all day.
People were healthier and more resilient and more capable 200 years ago than they are today by far.
One of the things that typifies humanity today is this sort of insane decline, this collapse of capability, this collapse of intelligence.
And with the collapse of the intelligence, if you don't limit who votes in a democracy, so to speak, then you're going to get a democracy that collapses for the simple reason that non-rational voters can't vote rationally by definition.
And so, you multiply this across the whole world.
Like, have you ever seen the traffic situation in India?
Who came up with that?
Just a bunch of short-term thinking people.
I know a really bright PhD India guy, you know, an Indian from India, who's an awesome guy.
And I said to him one day, I was saying, we need more people in our lab who are like you.
And I'm like, we need more Indian people to come to our lab because all you Indian people are so bright.
And he said to me, and again, this is an Indian guy saying this.
He said, oh, no.
Most of the people in India, not very bright at all.
Sorry, that's a poor accent.
I'm sorry.
But he said basically the people around where he came from, they're dumb as rocks.
Stupid.
He said only the super smart Indian people get the PhDs and come to America and end up being encountered by people like me in laboratories and so on.
He's like, no, run-of-the-mill Indian people, dumb as crap, according to him.
You know?
Which is probably true about everywhere.
There's probably a big sector of society that's not too bright wherever you go.
And so, this is how we end up with, you know, peak humanity.
And a global collapse that's now on the verge of happening.
Because people aren't too bright.
And the ones who are in charge have been put in charge by people who aren't very smart.
So that's why we're going to get the collapse we deserve, collectively.
And it's not going to be pretty.
And I hope you survive it.
I hope you do well.
It seems like it's coming sooner rather than later.
And you'll need a lot of good information to stay informed in order to make it through.
