Explaining societal collapse to an American: Imagine a burger
But then imagine not a burger
gasp
WE NEED TO GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS
Burgern’t
Whataburger is a great example of what the op is saying. It literally got bought by a private equity firm that is making it worse
DQ burger are the best though
Wait, “Dairy queen” sells burgers? I thought they were like…a sundae/milkshake shop.
I’m starting to think that every business in America sells burgers and hotdogs regardless of whatever else they normally offer.
Hot dogs are actually pretty uncommon in fast food. DQ, Sonic, and Auntie Anne’s are the only ones I can think of that have them.
They’re so good too.
Yeah most of them also sell hot food like hamburgers, corn dogs, etc.
Some stores only sell the cold dessert stuff, but a lot of them have a hot food menu too.
The blizzards are also really good. Lmao.
There’s a cross-lingual bürgerkreig pun somewhere in there.
Yes, I am plenty familiar with the concept of ‘supply and demand’…
I demand you supply me with my treats for minimum wage!
Less than minimum wage because tips… that you only get if you smile more and put up with aging sex pestery!

EVERYBODY PANIC!
MFW NO HAMBURGER
Tent cities i sleep
No treats real shit
IDK this guy doesn’t seem all bad
Gonna guess this is about the covid vaccine as opposed to working conditions given that it’s a blue check.
The tweet doesn’t specify but a comment indicates you’re correct
Link to tweet in question: https://nitter.net/DeanAbbott/status/1436082805688180743
Americans are a land of contrasts
He’s so right for this
Easy access to treats is the primary thing that brings Americans together
no dean
societal collapse looks like you getting blended and passed through a dairy queen ice cream maker because the locals found this tweet
Not being able to? Dairy Queen just doesn’t want to, when every job has sky high requirements, expects you to work for free, or usually both. Porky is the worst example of a charity case known to man.
I literally had no option but the coal mine because all the jobs only pay less than 10 dollars an hour
there’s a middle ground between these two. he could have brought up the supply chain issues and that store shelves are barely stocked (i had a 24 hr cold the other day and i went to 5 pharmacies looking for covid tests, they were all out of stock). instead he went w the “nobody wants to work” line
He’s not wrong in that collapse often isn’t an apocalyptic reckoning, it’s sometimes a slow degradation of conditions and inability to change paths. Caring about Dairy Queen specifically is treat brained, but look at Russia post-USSR collapse - there wasn’t a giant explosion just a decade of immiseration and quiet death
I’d seriously recommend this opinion piece on this topic.
If you’re waiting for a moment where you’re like “this is it,” I’m telling you, it never comes. Nobody comes on TV and says “things are officially bad.” There’s no launch party for decay. It’s just a pileup of [disruptions,] outrages and atrocities in between friendships and weddings and perhaps an unusual amount of alcohol.
I’m doing my part 🫡 🍹 🍹 🍺
Just dump my corpse on the White House lawn
I mean, they’re kinda right, not in that societal collapse is when no double chunky munky blizzard, but societal collapse looks like that in that it’s a fair bet as a precursor to societal collapse. I think it’s pretty reasonable to think the treats will be the first to go and the loss of the treats will precipitate more chaos.
why is this in the dunk tank, that person is merely pointing out the collapse of feudal capitalism (good thing)

He’s not really wrong though lol.
Most of the supports have already collapsed in America about all we have left is the ability to placate people with infinite treats.
If that goes away people are gonna start noticing literally everything else sucks too.

Mate, even if every corn-syrup and animal-protein-slurry dispenser in Amerikkka was destroyed, feudal capitalism would still reign. See Haiti.
but we can’t destroy the corn syrup replicators how else am i to get spare parts for my lawnmobile
imo this is just too many treat vendors competing for the same labor pool
the government must estabilish a national treat monopoly that forces all treat employees to buy a portion of treats from all other treat dispensories via a sovereign treat employee fund
I assume he is coming at it from a “the kids are too woke to work anymore” angle, maybe unfair but he has a blue check which must be treated with reflexive hostility.
Dairy Queen has fallen.
Billions must die.
no that’s what dairy queen closing at 4pm looks like but close
