I do not have insider info, so these are all only my opinions.
Background
We all know the powers that be want to control us more tightly, and one of the mechanisms through which this control can be gained is complete visibility into and, ultimately, control of our financial transactions.
The central banks and the governments that work for them would also like the easy access to withdraw money from our accounts for various reasons. For example, the proposed 2% "wealth" tax is proposed to be levied (read: taken directly).
Using this supposition we can come to the conclusion that TPTB would like to get rid of paper cash, because, despite having serial numbers printed upon it, cash is very fungible. You can use $100 bill to buy some drugs and the person who you had that $100 bill to can use it to buy a box of ammo, and so on, all without any tax on those transactions.
Current Situation
Banks would like to limit the withdrawal of cash. As a result, many of the instinct to withdraw as much as they can from the banks while they still can, and, if residing in a jurisdiction where heavy withdrawal limits are already being imposed, then to get as much cash back in every debit card transaction on a daily basis and stack it somewhere safe.
Coming Soon
Folks are going to stack as much cash as they can, and then there is going to suddenly be a cash related crisis of the counterfeit variety, which will trigger a wide scale call two deposit all cash into the bank for a one time amnesty while the situation is solved. After the amnesty period is over, any and all remaining cash in circulation will be considered null and void.
So, this leaves everyone in a pickle, take your money out of the bank to protect it from the bank and/or the government from stealing it, and yet they still win.
Solution
Gold.
Seriously, if you want to buy crypto, buy crypto, but please buy gold. Nobody can take gold, except by physical force or voluntary compliance. Nobody is going to secretly slurp your gold out of your account or through your floor. They will do this with cash and, if the Internet goes down or some NSA zero day exploit's that ruin elliptic curve cryptography overnight will automatically destroy the existing crypto currencies out there. Nothing is protected from remote fuckery, except things that have intrinsic value and can be placed into your pocket (you can carry enough gold to buy a house in your pockets) and carried across the border.
Whatever you do, also buy gold. Physical gold. Apmex is good, and you can purchase with your credit card (more expensive) or ACH/check. Gold price is up. Gold is not an investment. Gold is currency. If you buy gold now, you are paying $500 more per 1oz Eagle than the last ounce I bought. I can't, in good conscience, recommend buying anything other than American eagle coins. They have a higher premium than some other coins, but when SHTF it's going to matter what kind of gold you have if you want to transact in it quickly. A diversity of various coins might be a good idea. Fuck the Canadian government, but Canada does produce pure gold coins (US coins have 1 ounce of gold plus a small amount of additional metals to make the coin harder), might be a good additional choice.
That said, any gold is better than no gold (Apmex sells 1/10oz Eagles and, as u/no_ez mentioned in the comments, you can also buy small ingots, etc.).
When whatever happens happens (I know some people on here think nothing is ever going to happen except fake news and drama on the TV, but let history be your guide and not normalcy bias - SHTF is the norm; our spoiled time, thus far, is the exception) don't be left holding green paper or numbers that disappeared from an account. Buy it as much gold as you can afford to buy. It's not an investment. It's real currency.

Have any of you who say things like "oh my god" or "Jesus f****** Christ" recently stopped saying this, and, if so, why?

Wait till the camera zooms in real clothes and you'll notice the first really focused close-up shot, if you watch it frame by frame by taking a screen capture and then scrubbing through it, you can see that the sparkler looking projectile comes out the front and then explodes the second time immediately upon coming out of the barrel. I know that Dragon's breath shotgun runs have a lot of sparks like this, but they have a lot more flame out the front and they don't spread so wide, but most importantly, they don't explode right after they leave the barrel. Does this seem like maybe fake guns doing a fake shooting?
Dragons breath, for comparison:
Background
Back in the day, if you wanted SSL (TLS) on your website, you had to pay fealty to a CA (certificate authority), such as DigiCert.
Fast forward to late 2014, an organization called let's encrypt is founded, with the goal of providing free TLS certificates signed by them, as a nonprofit certificate authority. The organization was founded, in part, by Internet privacy idealists, and, at least, by some on the team, with the best intentions in mind.
One of these founders was this guy:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Eckersley_(computer_scientist)
Peter was an idealist, and an "AI ethicist". He died in 2022. He said to vitrify his brain and leave a note next to it that says "scan me". Obviously, this could just be a comical and mildly egotistical way of jokingly keeping his legacy alive. It could also be understood, by the most conspiracy minded individuals, to mean, "if you only knew the things I knew..."
Another founder was this guy, one Princeton graduate, now professor, who happened to try to convince the Clinton campaign to double check the swing states that Trump barely one, in case there was electronic voting fraud/hacking that took place:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._Alex_Halderman
Problem
The reason creating a nonprofit like this is such a big deal, and the reason SSL certificates costed hundreds of dollars and were a pain in the neck, is because browsers don't just trust any old certificate. They have to have a centralized authority that can be trusted, so that a man in the middle attack cannot be easily mounted by some third party who pretends to be the SSL certificate authority for your domain, using hardware on the wire between your server and the clients trying to access it. Browsers, like Chrome and Firefox, need to add each trusted CA to a list maintained in the browser, and these browsers only trust certificate authorities after a long and grueling process. Otherwise, they put their users' security at risk of such a certificate authority sharing their signing keys (e.g., with a foreign government or some other spying party), allowing for man in the middle listening attacks.
Let's Encrypt went through this process, in order to be trusted by all of the major browsers, and has been a trusted certificate authority since 2015. Because their certificates are free and easy to create, they naturally took over most of the market share from the existing CAs, almost immediately.
Today, if you go to a website, chances are you are connected via HTTPS (TLS), and the certificate is signed by Let's Encrypt.
Theory / Nightmare Scenario
As many other technologists in the conspiracy world, I've long thought "surely they have some serious zero day exploit and other Bad stuff that they will use to create this digital Covid nightmare", but it's quite possible that, rather than working really hard to find exploits, they just simply created a free exploit and have been waiting to harvest it.
Imagine the Let's Encrypt keys were taken by/given to "bad actors", and used to man-in-the-middle the entire Internet, through Internet backbones (large centralized network switches, undersea cables, etc.), giving these "bad actors" unencrypted access to nearly all information being sent over the wire (login credentials, banking information, SMS, email, other private communications, everything).
In such a scenario, almost every service in existence would be 100% compromised. Not only with this bring about the "digital Covid" nonsense that the WEF talked about, but it would also remove all privacy from every place where privacy was expected, which would have other really weird and demoralizing implications as well (e.g., what would the world be like after everybody was aware of what everybody else they knew was watching on porn websites, etc.).
This would be the most transformational event in human history, in my opinion.

I was talking with somebody who said they haven't seen any actual evidence of any cannibalism in Haiti that's been going on in the past week, and that the only thing he can find is the video from two years ago in then eating a guy's leg, etc.
Does anyone have any recent information on this, aside from here-say?
For some reason I had written into my memory that the movie Songbird took place in 2023, so when 2023 ended with no world-ending actual real pandemic I wrote the movie off as "not predictive programming, just fair porn", but then I went back to the IMDb page to see what people said in the reviews, and I immediately noticed, on the main page, that the movie actually takes place in 2024…
Now I'm concerned that they were gonna pull some fucking games this year. I mean, we all know they are going to pull many games this year, but Songbird paints a really bleak picture, and, in May (IIRC), the US will enter that WHO/UN/NWO health treaty, which will, on paper, remove our countries sovereign control over its response to "health crises", including, if I am to trust what I've read, "health crises" involving "climate change".
I'm gonna watch this movie tonight, because I wanna see what kind of programming they have put in here, aside from the stuff that was in the trailer. Does anybody else have any thoughts about all this, including this movie, the WHO treaty, etc.?
Songbird - 2020 (IMDb)

Clues (trailer only)
- "213 weeks since the lockdowns started" (that's 1491 days, which leads us to April 10, 2024 - the pandemic was declared March 11, 2020)
- Bob Marley "everything's gonna be all right" playing at the starting of the trailer, which is the same song that I Am Legend opened with, not to mention the added bonus that the song includes the lyrics "this is my message to you", and it is the "songbirds" that say this.
I heard that the Chiefs and 49ers were playing in the Super Bowl, and I'm 100% certain that somebody here posted that this was going to be the case, based on some week on Twitter or something, and this was like a month ago or so. If I recall correctly, they also predicted that the Chiefs would win. If you have a link to this?
You're walking on a trail in the woods and stumble across a random hiker - an interesting fellow - he begins to tell you a story about a haunted cabin down the way, so you decide to head there and check it out yourself. You're not one to back down out of fear, and you're certainly up for adventure when it calls.
After about 30 minutes hiking you see a cabin that is pretty close in description to what the guy told you about, except there are a few details that are off about this place. Some thing is not quite right, he described having two chimneys, but this place doesn't even have one chimney, the color is different, but you know there isn't any other cabin anywhere around here, so this has got to be it; he must have misremembered.
You get inside the cabin and there's another fellow just like yourself who is there for the same reason. You strike up a bit of conversation with him and talk about the haunting, his details are a little different than yours, both of you chalk it up to human mistake and begin hypothesizing about the background of this creepy cabin. After about an hour of discussion, from your different viewpoints, you've synthesized a theory that is pretty compelling, involving a guy name Bob who lived in the cabin (discovered from a note on the counter). You two shoot the shit for a few minutes and then you head out to continue your hike, but, by this point, you're way off track from your original trail, see you decide to get on a different path that's nearby.
After about 30 minutes you come across a sign with some small writing at the bottom. You kneel down and read:
"Look out for Bob. If you're on this trail, look out for Bob. That's all I can say."
You stand back up, slowly, suspiciously looking around. It was fun chatting about the theory, but shit just got real. Despite this, There's nothing you can really do, there was nobody at the cabin and this is just some corroborating bit of evidence that the place might be haunted, but it's not like you're an exorcist. After a moment of deliberation, you decide to continue down the trail, knowing that this trail we'll meet back up with your original trail and you'll end up back at your car only a couple hours later than you had planned, and you'll still be home in time for dinner.
A short while later, before the fork in the trail, there's a slightly wild path veering off to the right of the main trail, and you can see what looks like a red t-shirt draped over a branch, about 150 feet into the path. You decide it's probably worth a look; what if it is a clue related to whatever happened to Bob...
One clue leads to another, and before you know it you're a little lost, and it's a nightfall. You didn't bring a tent or anything to cook, just a Nalgene bottle of water and a granola bar. Now you've gotta try to find your way back to the main trail so you can get back to your car.
Suddenly you come across a note on the ground that wasn't there before. The paper is fresh, the note must be new. You pick it up and start reading:
"Hey Johnny, figured you'd find this note."
Your heart starts rapidly beating.
"We're sorry you had to find out this way. We took all your shit, and by the time you read this everything will be down at the pawnshop where you can buy it back."
The Internet is this trail. Us here, we're on that little path looking at the red T-shirt. If you go far enough down, you'll find some more interesting items, and then I think it links back up to the main trail.
We'll know if too many people wander off the trails at the same time, because the whole trail system will close down at once.
Obviously not actual Biden, since he's been dead for years, and obviously not actual COVID, since it doesn't exist, but you get the picture. This is the perfect move to ramp the fear back up and get rid of the "Biden" character in one fell swoop.
Pandemonium will ensue; make sure you've got a lot of food storage, water (including Sawyer Squeeze filters or similar), emergency supplies, etc.
They put this Guacamolean Trump (Milei) in office to quell right wingers while they do something that right wingers wouldn't like. Taking in +100k Palestinian fugees would qualify.
I'm not talking about a small scale FF (mall shootings, etc.). I'm talking about something big, like 9/11, Pearl Harbor, etc., where at least thousands die.
I am using the term "false flag" colloquially, as a kind of catchall, rather than in in the strictest sense. For the purposes of this exercise, consider both Pearl Harbor and 9/11 to be false flag attacks.
What do you think it will be, based on the your gut feeling, evidence, other peoples theories that you think are likely, etc.? And where will it take place?
When you copy a YouTube link now - this started a number of weeks back - it also includes a "session ID" in the form of "si=randomstring". Remove this "si=blah" bit from your links before you post, or else Google is tying clicks on that link back to you.
