Now that basically the entire planet's economy and civil society is collapsing, what are the implications for literature?

Most people don't have time to read right now, but I do notice there has been an uptick in people being interested in philosophy. People looking to philosophy for answers of what happened and maybe what might happen.

Of courese, people also don't have much time to write. With things sort of "collapsing", people are scrambling to prepare for the future instead.

misery creates great art. if any of us live through the bad times, at least we might have some good books to look forward to.

Not the kind of misery we're entering in. There's the misery of poverty, the misery of war, and then there's a boot stomping a human face forever.

This is sort of a romantic myth. If it were true, places like Africa and South America would have produced unending works of genius

Another explanation is that art is born out of the "dialectic", in sort of a Hegelian sense. The side that is moving Logos forward through history may come out with new ground breaking material, but people forget that many of the greatest works of art were born out of stable and well-funded institutions. Things we certainly do not have right now, and likely will not have in the near future.

There's always self-publishing and online cult followings. I'm not discrediting those

Well you could take into account Blackrock, Vanguard and other asset management firms now own $50t in all western assets and the chinese asset firms are collapsing which blackrock and others are tied up with.

But if you want some appeal to authority, check out the new intel agencies' 20 year outlook report. They basically report destability, the collapse of globalism, and a desperate retreat to localism/regionalism over the next 20 years, as well as unending economic decline and social decline

What the fuck are you talking about

The federal reserve (you know, the world reserve currency) had a liquidity crisis and was printing billions of dollars per day right before covid when 1300 CEOs all stepped down at once. Now we are printing $10 trillion stimulus packages with asset management firms owning literally the entire western economy with 90% of retail buyers bought out of the housing market and mass homelessness exploding due to no jobs and rising rents

"The happening" already happened, sheltered suburban faggots and college students with white collar parents who took the vaxx to keep their $60k job just don't know it

Now, the state is trying to enforce medical martial law as a segway into digital blockchain identities where the person is turned into a 21st century serf, because the old system just collapsed and the elites are trying to save face while still rolling out the 4th industrial revolution

That's because fiat currency is designed to implode, so people have non-stop death anxiety as they watch western markets erode in real time. 08' was the first sputter of the car, hasn't been the same since then. Now we're literally at the point of Blackrock buying up the entire real estate market to either prevent another collapse or possibly convert it into one massive government-controlled housing project. Do you understand the economy is so dysfunctional they had to lock people in their homes and print money to prevent a velocity-induced collapse?

I can't predict the fucking future. Nations around the world are adopting BITCOIN as legal tender along with smart contract partnerships. Why do you think this is?

I get your point, but South America literally has produced unending works of genius - Africa didn't have the international printing apparatus to make much work available worldwide, but you can be sure that in a continent of hundreds of millions, there are geniuses producing incredible work too. Emily Dickinson and Kafka are two western examples of the norm, luckily posthumously published, while those that publish are the exception.
