generic capeshit, with generic racism where people decide they're probably vampires.

Alright, you're gonna have to define nearly infinite strength for us here. Specifically, because you're either infinite or you're not, and whether or not it's infinite really answers the question of whether or not the world is destroyed as soon as he loses his temper and kicks or throws something.

Society collapses in a few weeks, same as every other scenario in which several hundred people are randomly given superpowers such as 'near infinite strength'. One of them punches the ground for shits and giggles and whoops there goes the eastern seaboard.

So Vampire: The Masquerade?

Also since it happened so sudenly, most if not all the super humans die the first day.

So strong that they can literally pick up everything that can be picked up.
So about 100,000,000,000,000 metric ton maximum lifting capacity.

But do they have the durability to survive the blowback of even using a thousandth of that power in a punch?

>>49955038

>"poorly defined superpowers, wat do?"
You get a poorly defined plot situation with numerous plotholes, I guess.
Ask stupid questions - get stupid answers.

If I were that guy I'd do it anyway just to be remembered as the guy who got so angry that he punched Texas into a crater.

>>49955096
Mate, that's 100 trillion tons. If he punched the ground really hard he'd do more than throw up a dust cloud.

Cause a 4.4 earthquake?

Either the world ends or we end up in capeshit. Let's hope it's the former.

Probably %90 of the superhumans die before they realize "oh its SUNLIGHT that vaporizes people like me" and then they rule the world.
