A 4chan comment I find scarily prescient

 

Watching our country descend into banana republic territory (see the Babylon Bee for more about that), I came across this graphic on MeWe.  I find it eerily disturbing.  Click the image for a larger, readable view.



That may be ten years old, but it also might be a scarily accurate prediction of our present situation . . .

  3. The python squeeze method to reduce free men into techno-serfs. No BIG Move that generates outrage for Joe 6 pack who just wants to be left alone.

    All they need is to separate the troublesome chaff out of the obedient sheeple.

    Sadly, I can think of quite a few that do not involve our fav fantasy of the door to door raids we bravely defend and ambush.

    Hard to shoot a court order that shuts off your entire electronic life, employment, health care and ability to pay rent-taxes and buy food-medicines.

    Do you really think your employer, Doctor and landlord should stand up bravely in your behalf as the media propaganda has you as dangerous terrorists?

    Ready for all the "ya a coward, eh?" attacks. Would really like some realistic thoughts about how your family, employer and all that are going to like full on lawfare against them.

    Ask Trump about that.

    Once you step off the porch, you an outlaw. Plan for that and ask yourself how that affects the rest of your family.

  4. It may look like that at the beginning of the collapse. A Slow decent towards a hellish existence. But one day, with little warning, the bottom will drop out of everything. And from there it will be a lightning rush to a Mad Max type of world.

  5. All this is, is a temporal regreession from 1776 AD to 451 AD.

    But in a matter of a couple of years.

  6. Yes, the future looks more and more like a mix of Orwell's 1984 and Huxley's Brave New World.

  7. Hate to predict anything, but the bottom falling out all at once is pretty accurate. Kind of like going bankrupt.

    Have supplies to be off the grid for a time is still good advice. Having cash on hand is another.

  8. That timeline was forever disrupted the moment Donald and Melania came down the escalator.
