Go read the beginning of the Parable of the Talents. It describes the Pox (short for Apocalypse) that many people say began a decade earlier (compared to 2032) but Biencole argues had been going on for decades due to climate change, income inequality, poor health care, and systemic racism. It wasn't some sudden thing like losing a war that destroyed America but it was more like we lost our way and without a goal in mind we wandered until we were eventually out of steam.
I'm pretty sure Butler could write winning lottery numbers down and they'd be right, but the prize that we was canceled due to inadequate funds.

-God is Change,
And in the end,
God prevails.
But meanwhile.
Kindness eases Change.
Love quiets fear.
And a sweet and powerful
Positive obsession
Blunts pain,
Diverts rage,
And engages each of us
In the greatest,
The most intense
Of our chosen struggles-
- Earthseed: Books of the Living
Great episode, I can't believe she literally wrote about a strong arm president who wins on the slogan, -Make America Great Again- - prophetic indeed!

This video hits a cord amidst the stock market crashing and virus outbreak and people acting like it's the end of the world and school getting shut down and the political climate. I'm worried that this reality is much closer than we ever thought.

2020 checking in. Nope. Totally not prophetic in any way. We've solved climate change and the world definitely isn't treating humans like a virus forcing everyone to stay inside.

I agree with the unity part, but this unity needs to be built on some kind of general consensus and shared goals without vested interests.

The second I heard interstellar travel being the ultimate and most noble goal in the novel, I knew I was going to like this.
