Yes, we know...

I would imagine it's because it hasn't been reported on in the U.S.

If you enter at 6 o'clock and exit again at 6 o'clock, you have travelled 360° which is a full loop.

Making a full loop is called a U-Turn and they are absolutely permitted.

ABSOLUTELY. And that first movie was before the nuclear war, so it's literally all about an energy crisis. People feel so comfortable in their modern world that they seem to not be able to imagine just how close to losing it all they are

You joke, but if you met anybody that lives in Syria about a decade ago, they would tell you this is exactly what it looks like. It's what it looked like for people about a year and a half ago in Palestine, and it's what it looked like to Soviet citizens in 1989. So keep making jokes, don't believe it, whatever. But it IS happening

I believe "complete" is relative in this case. Collapse is a process and not an event, people seem to miss that a lot. I think a lot of the reason why people only see it in retrospect is because they're all waiting to see some big glorious fire ball. But the truth is, collapse is mostly boring, and then concerning, and then terrifying.

Buddy, collapse is happening RIGHT NOW. You're in it. Whatever Mad Max post apocalyptic vision you have? Throw it out. What is happening right now outside your home at this moment, this is what collapse looks like.

They do if you use the right accelerant!

They are happening. There would be a lot less in the underground if it was some thing you heard about. But real work is being done. People being moved for their safety, certain apparatus of the state sustaining sabotage damage, etc. Things are being done.
