Same, but slightly more on fire.

Civilization will be crawling on its hands and knees, dying.

The rich will all be trying to pile into New Zealand.

America will be a warzone.

I'll have been killed by a flash mob stealing food from vulnerable houses.

Canada will be overrun by refugees, with rampant disease and cannibalism in the camps.

The republicans in the USA will still deny climate change, saying it's all a hoax.

The middle east and india will be uninhabitable.

Nuclear weapons use will be widespread.

The Internet won't exist anymore.

Everyone reading this comment will be dead.

Basically the same except we're gonna generally agree that aliens are real and not just somewhere in the abyss of space. Feel free to disagree, but that's where I'm at after the last few months - most specifically with Schumer's UAP Disclosure Act. Won't be mad if I'm wrong, but it sure as hell feels like it's coming and quick.

So interesting to me when I see this opinion. May I ask, are you American?

I am American and feel as though I’ve seen an uptick of people feeling this way.

Yep. Grusch coming out was the moment I started thinking "hmmm" then Schumer's amendment to the NDAA was a "Wait, you're being serious...." moment. So, I'm pretty convinced now. Totally cool with being wrong, but I'm getting real close to falling off the fence until proven otherwise.

This could have a transformative effect. So many people have no idea what's been going on with this lately.

I think if aliens are real and on earth, our perception of reality had been fed to us and nothing is real or to be believed. Particularly science and physics. Every position of power must be held by an Android ior simulated human and we are part of some experiment. Possibly or most likely fake stimuli being fed direct into our brains.
