3. My thoughts on why societies collapse.

I think when government gets too far out of reality and cannot mediate the problems of society then things that would normally be corrected can no longer happen and we descend into chaos or Climate Change makes agriculture at scale no longer possible. This applies past, future and present. The idea of getting rid of NOAA so climate science data will dry up and a bunch of other ideas helping only the rich at the expense of everyone else shows our deviation from reality. When the vast majority of our society can no longer maintain a healthy lifestyle and 10 of millions face homelessness things will deteriorate rapidly.
