I don't believe things relating to current health crisis will get the level where it threatens civilization (or the level of the Black Plague, which is said to have killed 30-60% of the human population then), but I still think it helps to have a plan just in case. I've always joked that after societal collapse, in a Mad Max world, my plan was to organize a Cthulhu cult. Back then, it would merely be a way for me to seize power in the postapocalyptic wasteland, to get back at a world that had alienated me. Today, I am part of the Cult of Cthulhu, making my "future" that much closer to reality. However, I understand that giving into my selfishness would be the wrong thing to do (even in a lawless world). So I must ask, what's the plan? Does the cult simply disappear with civilization? Or are we to continue the Work, in isolation this time?

My brother, and the cult will always love on, It must. After the eventual collapse of society we merely continue the great work and await for the stars, just as we always have, and just as we always will.
What about the loss of communication with each other? And can we plan around the formation of sects if one of us can't ascertain how go about the Work and goes on a different direction?
A fair point brother, with this in mind we must find an alternate form of communication outside the internet. I'm not too sure what but it is more than possible. You should share this post on the discord server, this topic can spark a huge group conversation.
Well if you cant comunicate with other members by any means the onlt option would be to copy the bible and start your own sect recruiting any nrw members or become a lone pilgrim
The classic blackpill-whitepill conversation that comes up when societal structure is threatened, and one we shouldn't underestimate regardless of it's likelyhood. I think I'll take this idea into a proper forum post.
I already introduced this into the discord (cult talk)
But feel free to explore this topic in a format you feel is better.
@Brendan Goethe That's great, taking to the people directly. Please, feel free to add on to what I post in the comments, if there's anything this Cult does, it's discuss ideas.
Well that would be fine really, im quite fond of the joker from the dark knight movie, though its a fictional character his philosophy is very mutch in acordance to the laws of nature and human nature in general ,i quote "To them, you're just a freak, like me! They need you right now, but when they don't, they'll cast you out, like a leper! You see, their morals, their code, it's a bad joke. Dropped at the first sign of trouble. They're only as good as the world allows them to be. I'll show you. When the chips are down, these... these civilized people, they'll eat each other. See, I'm not a monster. I'm just ahead of the curve." the part thar really speaks to me is (They're only as good as the world allows them to be. I'll show you. When the chips are down, these... these civilized people, they'll eat each other. Nothing could be more true ppl are only as good as the world allows them to be ,in a wild apocalyptic world one must become mad be wild and ruthless to survive adapt or melt into the void
