no limits to your catastrophizing choice these days...
Still with ticky boxes for everybody who can't decide what to be most anxious about:
Which inescapable disaster/crisis/calamity do you think is most likely to lead to your demise?
nuclear armageddon! started intentionally by horrible politicians
6 (26.1%)
nuclear armageddon! but brought on by pure stupidity, like someone misinterpreting some screen and/or pushing the wrong button
5 (21.7%)
the next high mortality rate pandemic will come for sure, possibly via climate change mosquitoes
3 (13.0%)
no pandemics needed, I'll die of some treatable condition, not able to afford medicine, thanks to the health system crisis/collapse
7 (30.4%)
I'll die in a riot/civil unrest brought on by an ongoing global economic crisis/collapse in general
4 (17.4%)
I'll die in a riot/civil unrest brought on by the economic crisis/collapse following Brexit in particular

4 (17.4%)
the climate change catastrophe will kill me through a grand disaster
4 (17.4%)

3 (13.0%)
I'll die in some armed conflict brought on by the above (or other) ecological disasters

terrorism! I'll be blown up by some shadowy terrorist organization
1 (4.3%)

0 (0.0%)
crime! but as a victim of the "tough on crime" policies, like tazered to death or shot by police and the like
0 (0.0%)
a meteorite will kill me in a huge extinction level event, but at least I have the consolation that everyone else will be dead along with me
1 (4.3%)

At least life on the planet will probably be fine eventually after we managed to kill our species' environmental foundation and most of the others alongside, with maybe some cool new innovation evolving in response, like the aerobic species were.
