> But we are speaking simply of mass unemployment. That alone is not enough to cause widespread despair.

Hahaha ...hahaha

Just wave off 10s if millions of able bodied people in the US alone, with 3 guns per adult; without an assurance they can stay in their home while things are sorted all those lives are more than "simply" upended

Your literacy, ability to put things into simple terms, to skeletonize in rhetoric, is tricking you into false belief.

Based on the age of your HN account, going to assume you're of an "out of touch generation" who still thinks of language as magic incantation.

"Well I say it's simple so it must be."

Touch grass. Your literacy is a sign of mental illness. It leads you to assume reductive statements like yours are iron clad immutable physics. That you just willed the future to react to major social upheaval "like nbd, bro."

Literate people are capable of being quite fucking stupid.

Your post is not the sign of someone who is healthy either, people don't say things like you just have.

Nor is it the level of discourse HN finds acceptable

President raped kids but in the real world people never act so vulgar as I have on HN?

HN is a bunch of ostriches
