I am old enough to have looped through countless versions of “this is the end.”
I know what you mean, but the situation we're in, the variables involved- this is absolutely unprecedented.
This resembles nothing more than a communist takeover using the insane, childlike trust that regular people put into doctors (or just a person wearing a lab coat- remember that experiment where they were able to get like 90% of test subjects to deliver lethal doses of electricity to an actor as he screamed in agony and begged for mercy?) to prompt this absurd, hysterical reaction.
The covid mandates and lockdowns was a "throat slitting" of the USA. We've been collectively bleeding out since then. We've been made weak- not allowed to go to the gym or gun ranges in many places. They turned the population soft with this year of lockdown and absurd amounts of "free" money. And now we're ripe for the picking.
this is absolutely unprecedented.
This shit happens every time a civilization falls. Hell, we have several examples within even living history.
Did we have the fucking internet in recent history?
Were humans absolutely 100% dependent on an elaborate system which amounts to a house of cards?
There are absolutely parallels to previous historical events, this is an objective fact. I am just suggesting that this is very different for us- nothing like the "CDC" has ever shut down a "free country" before using a pandemic hoax. This is unprecedented. Most of the world has internet access- comparing our inevitable civil war/collapse to, say the fall of Rome, begins to fall apart when you realize they didn't even have fucking newspapers.
I guess what I'm saying is: the world's population has unprecedented access to information that, during the Roman Empire's height, the average citizen would live and die never knowing who his own Emperor was. Am I making sense?
I think this also might be the end times. I also think we should live like it's going to end every day and be a great person and try to treat others that we know are no users the same way we would like to be treated. Help out, be nice, have fun when possible and don't abuse our friendships but make them stronger. I have hope still and that counts for a lot in my mind since I will not give into despair and just keep pushing forward and do my best. I try and show gratitude and thank others when they help me out and let them realize that since it shows at least one person gives a shit about their efforts so their life is not in vain and someone noticed them as some person that is not insignificant.
