Atomization of societies, a panopticon, and peer-policing accomplished in less than a year based on nothing but fear.
Stunningly cunning when you think about it.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79339517 They turned people against each other with fear. That's all it took. Quoting: ~Newton's Own~ Yep. Welcome to the reality of how "1984" by George Orwell happens. Also, the connection of "fear and safety" has biblical implications, for those who are followers and/or believers. You could even extrapolate "sudden destruction" to what is happening in the world right now - economic collapse and the inability of religious people and institutions to gather... interesting when looking from a different/broader perspective. I am not a believer or follower, but there are many prophecies in the world, and far more outside that book than within it. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79339517 Shit, 1984 didn't go far enough. Orwell was limited by the tech of his time. This is much worse. Quoting: ~Newton's Own~ Oh, I know how bad it is. I was merely pointing out how many possible timelines seem to be coming together in the same place. We've been playing hunger games for quite sometime as well - really all of our existence - and that is about to go sideways with the continuation of the breakdown in supply chains that have been happening over the last year. There will, at some point, be a big enough disruption that will cause a major breakdown across various necessities that will expose just how fragile the system is, and it will cause a panic. Just hope we get through the winter before it happens, but don't count on it.
