What's funny about this is that us collapseniks often pointed to r/futurology as being a hopium/copium sub, but that's waned away these days.

Also weird that OP is using "FUD" to describe a non-financial subreddit.

FUD isn't a finance originated term.

2020 and 2021 were basically the first years on record where the world as a whole got worse, according to UN HDI stats dating back to 1992. Combined with Internet sensationalism and the tendency of humans to be averse to declines, you get a lot of dark thoughts even here.
