The End is Nigh

Good old Russia Today - returning to form with a hilarious list of the ways in which the World might end.

It's got all of the actual favourites (asteroid strike, supervolcano) in there but rates them as least likely when they probably should be most likely (along with the mid-ranking nuclear holocaust). AI gets ranked as the most likely apocalypse which is frankly laughable. Whatever Hawking may think I'll be more worried when robots can walk and think at the same time without collapsing or getting stuck in an infinite loop.  

The high point, however, has to be the extremely highly rated 'Future bad governance' with a picture of the White House underneath.

Who said propaganda had to be subtle?
