1.They bring in a new variant to defect everyone's attention from the real problem in the monetary system that cause the crash.
2.Crash happens. 3.S&P tests 4670, then 4545, then 4400. NASDAQ down 15700, then 14000.
3.Then "Internet hackers" discover a new vulnerability in the Windows operating systems, and break into everyone's banks in whatever country.
4.Every government 'panics' and shuts down the internet for a few days, maybe a week, maybe more. this means eftpos and the global monetary system is down.
5.They reboot the internet, but it's lots different. way more control over what you see and hear and who can post anything. You'll need an internet passport to access it. Got to protect everyone's bank accounts from those hackers. if you need an internet passport to do anything on the net it's access your banks.
6.The monetary system is rebooted we're cashless society now. To get your internet passport you have to declare your vaccination status. If you're not vaccinated the new eftpos system will not allow you to buy anything in any shop.
You're now in a fully functional social credit system.
Yeah, except most people in the US aren't poverty-stricken rice farmers. We have cars and guns. So it'll probably go down a little differently.
So are the Kulaks before Lenin or Stalin.
Yes, Kulaks. Aka the Bourgeois Farmers. Those aren't poverty stricken rice farmers, but are a lot like the independent armed population in the US. The truth is that it just took some pre-made White Army opposition, followed by Lenin and Stalin launching the Dekulakization, Decossakization and the Holodomor to make all these people bow and beg for mercy.
The US now isn't any different from that.
I understand the similarities but the conditions have radically changed since. Again: cars, guns. Also we're not 19th century farmers.
True modern America is much softer than 19th century farmers
Everyone in Russia pre-1917 had guns before Lenin banned them. Especially Kulaks, which are middle-upper class farmers.
I'm not going to keep going with this thread because I do not think either of us re going to convince the other.
I'll leave by stating a bunch of 19th-century farmers in Russia (middle class meaning they had their own homes and maybe knew how to read) with manual action 19th century guns and weaponry in a just barely industrialized world is a far different situation than what present-day conditions offer in terms of firepower, resources, and overall knowledge base to a similar base.
