What is Doomer? :(
It is a nebulous thing that may include but is not limited to Climate Change posts or Collapse posts.
Include sources when applicable for doomer posts, consider checking out !bloomer@www.hexbear.net once in awhile.

I remember back in 2018 that there was this big climate report that said we had 10 years left or else climate disaster would be inevitable. I remember because I was dooming over it hard.
But now, 6 years later, the goalpost shifted to 2035? Again the "in 10 years" thing?
This feels like it's trying to sell people hopium on something that can no longer be fixed. Make us think we have some arbitrary deadline so we'll remain calm.
It also keeps feeding into the fascist frenzy that "climate change is a hoax, they've been saying the world will end since the 70s"
And... that's not at all what the science said ever.
