Curtis Yarvin once said, during the 2020 election season, “I’m so pro-Trump that I’ve actually come all the way around to being pro-Biden.”

The counter argument is that a swifter collapse will be more acutely painful.

Better to delay. They're strong, but we're growing. This is a good trend. If collapse happens now, we're at a disadvantage.

You may be right.

The important thing to know is that the end destination is the same, whatever the path.

I think Alan Watts would say the journey is more import than the destination.

Exactly. And that is why.

We all end up dead eventually, so enjoy the journey here and now.
