It is important to teach our children how negative change can happen so slowly it is almost imperceptible, until it is too late. Sometimes we don’t recognize how full the gutters are until the roof collapses.
I am NOT Nostradamus, but sometimes you watch events unfold that are SO predictable you want to scream. I want to go on record with a “prediction” that feels inevitable.
This refers to a country (and a leader) I am afraid to mention by name.
This country always prided itself on “democratic principles” and would brag about it to anyone who would listen. Over the last year, freedoms have been slowly limited. Opponents of the government have been attacked legally and the media has come under increasingly government control.
The military has been used to support the government’s agenda. More and more power is invested in the leader, and the “system of checks and balances” is a charade as the courts and legislature fall into lockstep to support the supreme leader. If it looks like fascism, smells like fascism, etc.
The problem for this regime is that they must run for re-election in 2028…unless they don’t.
Prediction:
1) Over the next 2 years there will be increasing hostility with a foreign country; most likely one with a non-Caucasian population (so racism can be part of the government’s fear- mongering).
2) There will be a series of internal “terrorist” attacks; likely staged, but blamed on
this enemy.
3) There will be a declaration of war against this “enemy”
4) 2028 elections will be suspended in the interest of stability and “national security”.
We might think “oh it will never go THAT far”, but what would we have said five years ago about a government getting TV hosts kicked off the air because their jokes offended the leader? And that’s the lesson – sometimes we don’t notice what’s happening until it’s too late.
