'Once upon a time'......Australia used to be 'in the club', of what were referred to as a 'First World Nations'.
When was that !!!!
And 3rd world nations, were those nations typified by crime, corruption, and often violence.
Gee, i'm glad i live in Australia, and not one of those nations !!

We seem to be living in a world today, on the brink of total societal collapse.....
everywhere [or many places that you would not expect, at least].

A ....NWO ?
Create a crisis [everywhere in the world, involving rampant crime, corruption, and violence], so that all people clamour for 'relief' from these hardships.
.......and then present a 'solution' which all 'reasonable' people would welcome and accept.
.......'for the good of everyone'.
rampant = = flourishing or spreading unchecked.
Look at the multiple crises around you.... how many times ... the people will eventually demand a Strong Man from either right or left to take over and dictate Right to the people once more..... and it's all downhill from there...
There is no Ad Hitlerum here - Hitler was the leader of a party... each member seemed to have unlimited power.... it was the combined defaults of the GROUP that lead Germany into The Abyss - the same is happening here...
That book "How Democracies Die" loves to focus on 'strong man' singular..... I suspect so they could lead up to their attacks on Trump .... but they overlook the deeper and more lasting effects of the slow invasion of demolition of rights and democracy caused by groups... of both left and right...... duzzen madda.... SS-DD ....
It was Kurt Vonnegut, I think, who came up with the concept that each individual belonged to a group... even when that individual didn't even know who the others were... and it was those groups acting in concert, knowingly or unknowingly, that moved history and events etc...
We have much the same here with all these 'disparate' groups raving in the streets and in the Sitadels of government..... slowly but surely removing from you, one piece at a time, every safeguard you have against tyranny and despotism.... right now they have arrived at Ho Chi Minh's Mistake of assuming the time has come for open revolution against the people**..... and they are governing by decree in such areas as closing off your National Parks and such and arbitrarily handing over everything of cultural value to a pack of losers.
Might as well pack it all up and ship it to the Siberian Museum or to Disneyland or Disney Planet ... them falls would make a great ride....
**Note:- Ned Kelly made the same mistake.
