Donald Trump is at war with the world, in revenge for being born. He's that damaged. He has allies, firstly an extreme, life-hating bunch of feral Calvinists that hate creation. Pentecostals. Somewhat unbelievably they are joined by a group of tech tycoons who have become catastrophists.
They think societal collapse will play out well for them, never mind the carnage. They don't care. The tech tycoons are like brains suspended in a medium as was portrayed in a Star Trek episode. Alienation unites these factions in a war of the worlds. Life against Death. Love against Hate.
Existence against non-existence, when it's modeled out, but not all of them will own it. The Calvinists might. They really hate everything. The corruption and imperfection of creation as they experience it makes them all mad, both pissed and crazy, so in both those senses of the word.
Not to be discouraging but this is it. We didn't choose it but we are thrust into a battle of good against evil. The world of life against the world of death. Intelligibility against chaos. Cooperation against convulsion. We are called on to resist in an epic and battle that looks like bathos from the inside.
Third-rate characters like Trump. Even our villains suck but they kill you anyway. Satan is driving a clown car, but it's still fatal as hell. They will destroy everything and kill us by the billions and never look back. Big numbers are nothing to them or they like them. Psychopaths think big.
