I'm more worried about the crater than the asteroid

That implies that only capitalism leads to a global backslide into authoritarianism which is historically very inaccurate. The rise of capitalism took power away from the crowns and the nobility like no other system ever has.

Sees an asteroid hurtling toward earth

don't worry about that, the real problem is craters, which is caused by unicorns

Asteroid getting closer

Fucking unicorns creating disinfo about the cause of craters. Asteroids are indifferent and couldn't be responsible for catastrophe, proving craters are caused by unicorns

Society becomes divided into two camps, an asteroid cult and people trying to stop the asteroid

the asteroid cult are a bunch of loons but the anti asteroid people are falling for unicorn propaganda, therefore are themselves morally equivalent to malicious unicorns

Asteroid hits earth, leaving a giant crater

Fucking anti asteroiders and their shitty craters.

Just don't look up at the asteroid and you won't have to have to acknowledge it
