So far we got Haiti, Ireland, Iran, Cuba, and The Philippines collapsing. Am I missing any?
RottenFarthole@reddit
Ireland? Am I missing something?
FifthMonarchist@reddit
Famine
RottenFarthole@reddit
Wasn't that like 200 years ago?
Mormanades@reddit
Funny thing about history is it often repeats itself and political leadership fails to learn from the past
RottenFarthole@reddit
No doubt that it will repeat itself, but Ireland has not "collapsed" yet, that's what I was pointing out
Julian_Thorne@reddit
It doesn't need to collapse to be collapsing
RottenFarthole@reddit
In that case let's just say say everywhere is collapsing cause that's the truth

Why are you dragging Ireland into this? We’re still one of the safest and most happy nations on the planet with a remarkable economy. We’re at no greater risk of collapse than any other European nation 😂

You forgot Venezuela, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Egypt, Bangladesh and Pakistan.

Ah yes right you are

Ireland is not collapsing.
Julian_Thorne@reddit
I think we're at the point where a national crisis isn't just another crisis, it's the beginning of collapse

When this madness reaches India, that's when things get interesting.

First we need to open and close the straight a couple more times. Then we can maybe embargo Haiti to let them know they have tariffs they need to pay first
GalaxyPatio@reddit
It doesn't matter, and I'm so sorry, but it's really bothering me: it's "strait".

Gotta fix the trade imbalance too, we can't help until they buy their share of American made cars.

And then post random memes to distract from the Epstein files and other important issues for good measure.

I'm not giving my money to any country, government, or organization. Not my problem. Best of luck. Cheers mate.

Haiti should be a shining star in the Caribbean. It’s currently places not due to the people.

If we have real immigration enforcement, why is this our (US) problem?

So heartbreaking. Especially since if the US had just left them alone they would likely be doing as well or better than the Dominican Republic. I haven’t been back for a few years now but it’s really shocking to see the architecture of their prosperous times contrasted with the daily struggle now. Makes me wonder how much longer we have before the homeless are setting up in abandoned gas stations or the old Nieman Marcus stores here.
jake_long11@reddit
you are completely correct the intervention to reinstate jean artstide was a complete failure and the rice crisis to allow us grown rice into the market crippled local rice production. Haiti should have closed its borders completely to the US and should have been fully independent.
BerryLanky@reddit
You want humanity from this administration?
behavebeaver@reddit
Six million, and to think there’s some policy dial we can just turn to fix it. At this point, the situation has its own momentum. It’s no longer something that can be reined in or managed from the outside.
We’ve lost the ability to dictate how this ends, which is a hard pill to swallow. All that’s left is how to respond to this. We can’t force stability back into existence, but we still have to figure out how to act while the ground is shifting.

Haiti has truly been exploited, abused, and punished by France, Spain, and the United States over the course of many centuries. Calling it a disgrace would be a monumental understatement.

The following submission statement was provided by /u/madrid987:
ss: Statistics from the island clearly demonstrate the severity of the collapse. Over 6 million people—more than half of the total population—need urgent humanitarian assistance to avoid succumbing to hunger, disease, and violence.
"We are witnessing residents at their breaking point, facing a severe humanitarian crisis where they cannot even access essential services," they warned.
