Corporations one after another are claiming they're laying people off because AI has made them so much more efficient. But all the layoffs were predicted by those who saw the end of the last credit cycle coming. What an interesting coincidence.

AI hype may have kept the stock market bubble going a bit longer, but it could not avoid recession in the real economy. Interest rates increased significantly since post-scamdemic and these are the inevitable (and necessary) results.

Instead of telling the truth, they are making the downturn worse by cranking up the economic pessimism to 11 in an apparent bid to save face / increase shareholder value. Or is it part of the larger agenda to push government control via UBI?

Either way, despite AI being a useful tool, it will be like the internet. It ends up creating more jobs by opening up new possibilities and increases demand for better quality services (hedonic adaptation).

So it's a recession, and we've seen many before. It could even be a depression with how distorted the market became with decades of low interest rates.

Most are aware of the infamous "Sampson Option" where Israel will try to take the world down with it if it ever believes it will be conquered.

For this reason, the Beast system, the goy nations that the Harlot uses, will need to wipe her out in quick and dramatic fashion.

This is confirmed in scripture where it states "her plagues will come in one day—death and mourning and famine. And she will be utterly burned with fire" -- Revelation 18.

It will be so swift in order to avoid the Sampson Option.

"But Jerusalem can't be the Harlot", some will say. There is a body of serious scholarship saying it is. One notable scholar is Israel supporter Chris White, who after careful study went from believing the antichrist is Muslim to realizing he is a Jew ruling from Jerusalem, and that the Harlot is in fact Jerusalem.
