The pandemic next time

 


Edward Dutton (the not-so-jolly heretic) argues that the entire human civilization can collapse within the next 100 years or so, due to new pandemics and low IQ populations unable to develop new vaccines or medicines to cope with them. 

Also, human civilization goes through "Malthusian cycles" or cycles of rise and decline in general, so why should we be any different? 

After we are gone, a dark age that last thousands of years will ensue, although pockets of humanity might survive deep in the Amazon rainforests or at remote islands...

Not a pretty (or jolly) perspective!

Funny detail: he actually mentions Graham Hancock´s speculations about the Lost Civilization ("Atlantis").
