Wanting to live in the end times is kind of cowardly since it absolves of you of the burden of building a better future.

Wanting to live in the end times is kind of cowardly since it absolves of you of the burden of building a better future. Some great compelling force will come down from on high and sort it all out.
Since you don't really know what times you face it's more responsible and brave to live as if these are the "Beginning Times" instead. And with great effort you may do a tiny bit of good that lasts a few decades beyond your grave.

those who cheer armageddon or "accelerationism":
so you're happy to see your grandchildren die?
the essential conceit with such people is they have main character syndrome
they believe they will survive
the reality is:
cut your toe, oops sepsis
or they have a cache of gold: dude with a gun gets that
or they have a bunker: you mean your head of security has a bunker
or they believe in their holy purity: their judgment of themselves can be quite flawed, sometimes cringe level

@futurebird I was raised to believe I was in the end times. I grew up in an apocalyptic cult. Though I left, my parents are still in it. I told them I'm fighting to protect the land, and they tell me I'm wasting my time because everything that's happening now is God's plan, and after Armageddon, it'll all be rebuilt into Paradise.

sigh (that is always tough)
and that’s nice and all but I still make my students push in their chairs even on the last day of classes… not quite the same but …
