Time to get serious…

You’d better start getting serious.

You see what is happening, and how fast it is moving, right?

Logically, how long until they start in on their enemies lists, weeks….a month?

How long until they dogwhistle and embolden the current version of brown-shirted militias (Proud Bois etc) to begin going after people at the street level, arming them with information about who their enemies are, where they live, what they drive, where they frequent, how they can be expected to react, all gathered from the databases that all of us have willingly surrendered to for as much as decades, since the owners/CEOs/stakeholders of those social media companies that KNOW all of that about all of us have started holding hands with fascism?

And if you think that’s fantasy thinking, why in the world would you think that in the face of what’s happening? 

These people are ALL about a punishment mentality, and they have been publicly voicing their desire to punish the “others” for their imagined grievances for literal decades, how can you possibly imagine it WON’T go there?

Do you actually think they’re going to stop at deporting a huge swath of “illegal” humans?! And if so, why would they?! Their lists are much longer than that, and they are currently and have been saying so, all along. 

Not to mention that “othering” has now become entwined with corporate/shareholder interests in the form of prison/transport/private security/cyber-security corporations who stand to gain MUCH in this environment. And if you think THOSE people are concerned about Patriotism and Principles, it’s time to change your diapies….

You’d better start thinking about getting off Social Media, learning about secure programs for communication, start using “dumb phones“, learn what a “Faraday bag” is and start using it for certain things in public places.

“Those times” are not coming, they are here, NOW, and the time/distance between now and there is already none.

And on top of it all, the collusion and collapse of a “responsible and free press” means you likely won’t hear about it except anecdotally, in ways that you won’t believe or don’t think you can trust, it will all seem too outlandish and/or crazy.

In every historic time that the social structure has collapsed or rotted enough to be taken over by these kind of people, a huge part of the regular population stood by in disbelief that what was happening….could actually happen.

They couldn’t believe that their world had shattered in such a thorough way, and so they put their head down and tried to go about their everyday life, hoping that normalcy would return, while all around them their world convulsed and crumbled, till “the knock” and pounding  was on THEIR door, and it was too late.

You think these people are mean childish fools who are like giant toddlers who have managed to somehow to get the keys to the car and start careening down the road giggling hysterically until they crash and mommy comes to get them, and you’re right, they ARE that….except they are mean and angry and violent and filled with vengeance about imagined grievances and the kind of entitled malevolence only those who are on top of society and feel that is being threatened can have, and they CAN drive, and they ARE capable of attaining organization, and they are armed and they are salivating at the chance to exact punishment and retribution upon those they blame for those imagined grievances, and their mommy is NOT coming to grab them by the ear and sort them out, she’s cheering them on and teaching them to hate and how to “other” and to act.

In a historical sense, what is coming can be seen from a country mile away, and it always does, so don’t get caught flat-footed, just because in your innocence and arrogance you can’t believe they mean “yes you too!”…

And yeh….maybe I’m wrong.

But I’m not wrong so far, and you never thought it would get even this far, did you?

So what does it cost you to learn a bit about your own security, just in case, to start pulling back on habits that you already feel are negative trends in your anyway, to think just even slightly that there may be a real danger to you and your’s?

You have some plans in place for earthquakes/floods/fires depending on where you live, right?

Why not put a little thought into what you might do if I AM right, and the danger could come from people around you, and not just nature?

The social contract has already been broken, and the consequences historically are not mysterious and hard to predict.

Again, I hope like hell I’m just utterly utterly wrong, and believe me no one would be more pleased to be Chicken Little here than me. But I’m not wrong so far, and who could have imagined it would even go this far and not be stopped?
