Barron is way too tall.

"within the next decade" sounds like an unnecessarily long view on it. Next Christmas will come within the next decade too but it doesn't mean it'll be 10 years from now.

Napoleon was actually about average height for the time. The shortness thing was just British (?) war propaganda to, for lack of a less on the nose term, belittle him in the public consciousness.
Barron IS still freakishly tall, though. He should either stop doing that or become really good at basketball or volleyball.

And the trend has only accelerated since. Especially now that the fascists are implementing Project 2025 with frantic haste.

so you're 100% on societal collapse by 2035?

but isn't their strategy literally how they have 90 percent of the wealth? seems a crushingly effective strategy. what do you suppose their downfall looks like? does it happen before or after ours?

Nope. As I clarified in my edit, the exact timeline from the headline is usually wrong and never the point.

Not to go off on a quite wild tangent from societal collapse but I think beyond propaganda Napoleon was often flanked by tall and hand-picked elite guards and ironically also old aristocracy generals themselves tall from richer diet and so appeared short in comparison.

Agreed. We just know it's coming so it's time to prepare for battle.

so it should read "something might happen eventually, we don't really know and we are probably wrong, so maybe just ignore this"

Nope. It's DEFINITELY happening. It's just the sort of thing that's nearly impossible to predict the exact timeline of. It could be as soon as a year from now and it could be in fifty.
Either way, the problem is real and worsening NOW, which is the second best time to do something about it.

There's a limit, and at this rate we are bound to get there eventually.
Look at it this way...either there is a finite amount of money, and the more it is amassed by a handful of people, the less there is for others to survive. Or there is an infinite amount of money, and it's worthless.
There really should've been a point of exponentially diminishing returns on personal wealth, like a long time ago. There shouldn't have been any super-rich after the steel barons of the early 20th century. You'd think we would've learned our lesson then.

Does the word "risk" mean "guarantee"?

within the next decade?
We're already most of the way there. Inept, Incompetent, and overtly corrupt governments engraging the population
homelessness, unemployment, unpopular immigration and costs of necessities going haywire
trade wars brewing, Oh, and World War III is basically already in it's pre-game show stage with the fighting in Europe.I'm at the point where Im expecting it any day. the US is just one bad move away from causing an all out revolt, because part of its population rightly thinks that the new admnistration is full of mobsters, tyrants, and fascists.

Elon literally built a doomsday retreat in Texas, where most of the women he's fathered children live. as well as most of his children.
some notable exceptions, Grimes isnt there, nor the child who became Trans. for obvious reasons -

10 years ago, it was a night and day better world state.
Even Trump 1.0, the worst thing in the world at the time was the ISIS threat.
In Trump 2.0, We live in a world with- WW3 Basically in its opening stage in Ukraine, Russia is pretty much fucked, but NATO is fucked too now that the US is run by someone who hates it
- Post Covid destruction of the economy
- The billionares have turned megalomaniac and wormed their way into government ears
- The US had an attempted Coup, the person who organized it is now the POTUS. and the people who participated in it are on the streets
- the gradual increase of uneducated stupidity through social media and MSM TV Brainrot.
We've basically been in a spiral towards armageddon this decade, the 2020s are BRUTAL compared to the mid 2010s.
