"End of America"

this was extremely interesting. and creative. i still think that secessionism is going to be the end of us all though. B)
 
It's mostly fun just to play around and see how high you can get the Human caused --> Everyone dies ratio.

The highest I was able to get combined Russia Hits the Button, Robot Overlords, Supercollider, and Voluntary Human Extinction.

Resultantly:

You are a bloodthirsty misanthrope. You believe mankind is stupid and fallible and that America will destroy itself in a bloody mess. You'll know you're right when: The United States succumbs to a torrent of Russian nukes; we clone ourselves, get bum genes, and die.
 
"North America abandons its arbitrary borders and splits into regions with cultural and economic similarities, such as the ones laid out in Joel Garreau's Nine Nations of North America."

I read that book in college and it is probably one 'apocalypse' I would push for to happen.
 
You are a humanitarian internationalist. You're convinced mankind will terminate America—but at least we won't off ourselves in the process. You'll know you're right when: Everyone on Earth pledges allegiance to a world government; the feds default on the national debt.

Well, not quite how I'd describe myself, but the last sentence is close enough.
 
Originally I got what Deck Knight had but I examined everything a bit more and played with it again and got this with Loose Nukes, Overpopulation, Super-AIDS, Asteroid, and Food Supply:

You are a fretful doomsayer. You don't know whether to blame man or nature for the impending apocalypse, but you know it's coming—and it's going to be really, really bad. You'll know you're right when: A group of baddies lets smallpox loose in the United States.
 
I got the same as bob3rt.

I think it is basically because I expect the human race to outlive america. Which seems pretty reasonable since it is unlikely that the reverse will happen..

Have a nice day.

Mankind is stupid and fallible - check.
America will destroy itself - check.
Succumbing to Russian nukes - it's gonna happen eventually.
We clone ourselves - we're already cloning bits of animals and we're not gonna stop there.
We get bum genes - check.
We die - check.

I think this is the third time something online has ever given me an accurate analysis of my personality.
 
You are a Gaia-hating doomsayer. You're sure the natural world will destroy us, and there's nothing we can do about it. You'll know you're right when: America gets crushed by an asteroid; a new ice age buries us under a glacier.

Yes, America will destroy itself.
 
I only picked 4 things... in likeliest chronological order:

1) Wall Street cleverness (or just Goldman Sachs cleverness would suffice)
2) China unloads US Treasuries
3) Default on debt
4) Hyperinflation

You are a humanitarian internationalist. You're convinced mankind will terminate America—but at least we won't off ourselves in the process. You'll know you're right when: Everyone on Earth pledges allegiance to a world government; the feds default on the national debt.
 
You are an anthropocentric pragmatist. You think the American citizenry controls its fate, and we won't screw up enough to destroy the human race. You'll know you're right when: Vigilantes along the Mexican border start a war over immigration; the United States has a socialist revolution.

push button warfare/theocracy/privatisation/wealth gap/superaids

I was disappointed by the absence of Panarin's inanity, though.

picked: Robot Overlords, Big Brother (smart AI), Super AIDS, super viruses, and drug resistant germs
 
I picked everything that looked like a natural disaster and got:

I chose The Matrix, Obama as God, End of English, Outer Space Emmigration and Super-AIDS.

I think Carl was closer to mine, though, because mine mostly involved disease (I'm biased though because of my virus fixation), but most also involved war (in my imagination). I could see it as both a result of humans or a result of nature.

I picked: Food Supply, Synthesised Super-Virus, Anthrax, Smallpox, and Military Coup.

Close enough to what I think. We're cloning anything we can (if a giant Mammoth gets cloned I won't be surprised), Russians push the red button is pretty plausible.

I chose:
~Big Brother-Super AI takes over government, we're screwed.
~Russia Hits The Button-It almost happened before, who says it won't happen for real.
~Food Supply-Food levels drop all over the country. Some people emigrate, some people starve, some people die to a strain of virus due to their weakened immune system.
~Small Pox-Bio-Terrorists obtain a mutant strain of virus (such as Small Pox) and spread it to the U.S. People die off because of no vaccine, nation gets quarintined. U.S.-0 Terrorists-1

I chose four, like McGraw. If we all die, we probably caused it.

1) Decadence - We're growing lazy, IMing/MSNing each other instead of just walking/driving on over to your friend's house. We're going to be so immersed into convenience that nothing is going to get done.

2) Nationalized Industries - Hell, the Entertainment industry is much more stable than the current US government. But, now that I think about it, maybe I should've chosen something else...

3) Overpopulation - Simply put, we're not being hunted, nothing's stopping us from overbreeding.

4) The Matrix - With the amount of technology nowadays, and the way it's going, this is going to happen eventually. Watching the Matrix yesterday didn't help much in not choosing this.

5) Big Brother - Filler, either this, modified organisms, or alien species. It just seemed to fit with the others better.

This may sound stupid,but what is a misanthrope?

I chose: Tax Revolts, Ocean Acidification, EMP, Loose Nukes, and Suicidal Tyrant. But I didn't read all of them :D

Lots of misanthropes in here *shivers*

@trader: I believe a misanthrope is someone who hates humanity.
 
This was really interesting (for me anyways), and was surprised that I knew about most of the scenarios and things in there. This is what I got my 2nd try (after reading EVERY SINGLE SQUARE >.>), and what I thought was REALLY most likely.
