I see exactly what you say and I see John Titor it as a type of self destruct archtype of human being. The sky is falling. I think this type of thinking becomes activated when human beings become under considerable stress. John Titor is a fiction but there are those who would want more than anything for America to have a civil war. I for one prefer peace but I will not remain ignorant of the possibility that this is exactly what is going to happen. Hope for the best but prepare for the worst.
