If you think that most of the world being in 'Lock Down' from a Pandemic that turned out to be nothing more than an excuse to get rid of Orthodox Politics and bring back Media empowered Left Politics - was bad.

Well wait till WW3 is 'officially' underway.
It's already started as we can obviously tell by the 'warm ups'.
But when it cuts loose - expect the world to go into a major global black out as Internet Platforms across the globe are hacked into, Banks are stripped bone dry from Hackers, Satellites fall from the sky like a meteor shower besides being fired upon. Majority of Telecommunications around the world are compromised. Media coverage is minimalised. Excessive people wanting to make phone calls, send clips of their nearby explosions, etc, etc - all overloading systems that have already been either destroyed, hacked or compromised.

Darkness will fall upon this world, not as in 'night' to day - but a Void of silence and unknowing in the first year as wars wage but the world's population has no bearing on it.
You might as well get a letter from the horse-n'cart mail to be the most up-dated in the Wars.

The effects of this Black Out or Void will be like an unseen enemy - an invisible god, that destroys you from afar and from anonymous position of safety.

Panic and fear will grip the world.
Fear of the possibility that the rest of the world has been destroyed and you just wouldn't know it.

...put your money in your mattress.

Mate... seriously...  I think you need a cup of tea,
a Bex and a good lie down.

Maaaaaaaaaaate.
If you can't up the ante - then just fold and keep the Bex to yourself.  ;)

No, really. We are winning the world economic war.

Yep - we just gave $400 Billion to the British and Americans for some underwater clunkers to fight for 'them'.

I'm used to black outs ... we've had close to 290 black outs since early 2013. I jot them down as they happen, and I keep a supply of candles in the cupboard. I started inquiring about a generator to hook up to the house ... it's like forced dooms day prepping

I remember my Grandmother keeping meat cool by placing it in a hanging birdcage with a wet towel covering the cage ... it seemed to work for a few days

We can't take anything for granted, lefty progressives will have to learn that

We are a rich country that should have the latest and best weaponry for when we have to go to war. We are not going to engage in a war with China. That would be economic suicide.

I mean, you are well within your rights to fight a war with sling shots as you ride around on your e-scooter for transport.
