Personally….. I think we’re doomed!

  • Putin still invading Ukraine….
  • Israel still trying to wipe out Hamas
  • Houties still trying to hit ships
  • Kim John taking the opportunity to increase his nuclear rhetoric in his New Year broadcast
  • Xi taking the opportunity to say Taiwan will be unified in his New Year broadcast
  • Putin already rigged the Russian presidency
  • God help us if Trump gets in again

The world had gone nuts…. Will we make 2025!

I think the general consensus seems to be "You know what, just wipe us all out and let the planet heal & start itself over again" from a lot of the folks I know - Slightly worrying to be sure biggrin

If it’s not a virus it’s war and if it’s not war it’s poverty and if it’s not poverty then it’ll be climate and if it’s not that then it’ll be a meteor hitting earth or something just as insane.

We are always living in unprecedented times these days biggrin

Common theme there, all the world's misery caused by power mad politicians and crazed religious fanatics, just get rid of those and the rest of us will rub along together quite nicely.

Those with a Tin Foil Hat might add sign-off of the WEF/WHO Pandemic Treaty being seemingly inevitable in 2024, giving Tedros the power to define what a pandemic is and then declare one, forcing countries to abide with his/WHO instructions on 'necessary' actions - including lockdowns and medication and travel restrictions, it seems, with likely/potential rollout of global Digital ID requirements.

Others with a Tin Foil Hat might add the BRICS nations coming together to sideline the USD from trade requirements, including (and especially) in oil trades, meaning the effective end of the USD / petrodollar / World Reserve Currency and implications in terms of USD returning to the USA and triggering massive inflation issues and wider market problems, potentially with a shift to a new World Reserve Currency backed by one or more physical assets (Gold?).

And we might finally get proper confirmation of Aliens / alien tech back-engineering biggrin

As Lennon wrote, ‘War is over (if you want it)’.

Not enough of us ever seem to want it.

This is the only true answer. Humans have always raged war on one another. It's in our nature. Peace? Not a chance.

It is a truism as old as time that only the dead have seen the end of war.
