Realistically... How fucked is the US?

Prices on everything will go up exponentially while income comes down. Worker protections won't exist and the people in charge of your health, whether food, medical, other goods, will only care about which company gives them a bigger check.

Remember how baby food had to be recalled recently because it was unsafe to feed babies? That ain't happening anymore! Fuck the babies! And if you can't afford your $4k/month rent, to prison with you (because homelessness will be illegal and prison labour cheap cheap cheap!)

I used to eat fast food every day after work. If I had a side hustle, I would eat fast food after my side hustle. But I stopped when I would go through the drive thru, pay $15, then sit for 10 minutes in the parking lot for old, cold, shitty food. Fast food isn't fast. Fast food isn't cheap. And fast food doesn't taste good. It's been over 3 years since I voluntarily ate fast food and I'm never going back.

The fun thing about the Fediverse is that when this goes down the other instances stay up, so whoever is doing the attacks isn't really doing much except promoting people to create accounts on multiple instances. Which makes the numbers look really big.

McDonald's to 'rethink' prices after first sales fall since 2020

As someone who used to be a daily fast food eater, I'm just proud that these greedy fast food chains have forever lost me as a customer. Ethics aside, after not eating at these places for so long, I now get to compare the experience to the local places around me or my own cooking skills. The only way I'd ever go back to one of these fast food joints I used to frequent daily is if they provide a better value than myself or the local restaurants here. And the local quick service places here give you a ton of good food instantly for under $10, which I know McDonalds et al will never reach again.
