In Australia, not much will happen until the economy breaks. I think Europe and the UK might be a different story, they’re even further along with their tyranny and in worse condition economically, seems like they’ll snap first.

It just feels like a ratchet that keeps getting tighter…tighter… If something doesn’t snap its hard to imagine what this place looks like in 10 years.
They will introduce a simple test to determine what constitutes hate speech, fear and division: Is the person saying this an enemy of government power or the groups which provide it legitimacy? Yes = guilty No = promote as much hate, fear and division as you want to instigate those who will fail the test
Nevermind 10 years, you’ve got 5. Keep your eyes on energy and the housing Ponzi. They’ll be able to keep the housing Ponzi going (minus a US blowup), but they won’t be able to mask what they’ve done to energy. Your 2025 power bills will feel super cheap in 2030. image

You should read The Price of Tomorrow by Jeff Booth. The things you’re noticing, it goes into all that stuff.

You might be able to hire it from your local library if you search their catalogue on their website. My local library has a copy 🙂
