I’m sure Soros has things locked up offshore in different countries etc so funds would be untouchable - he is evil, but very smart... I agree not all antifa are paid, but there are especially radical elements that likely are, and he does pay to transport people around and for promotion/propaganda to obtain more useful idiots, and there are many. I agree the best bet is to ignore and avoid, but if they are coming door to door and blocking freeways, along with whatever other violent acts, it could become difficult...

Antifa are planning huge rallys on Nov 4 until Trump and Pence are gone, Soros of course recently putting $18 billion into his funding for Antifa, BLM etc, so it seems like it could be major.... some places say the protests (all in blue states) are a distraction for other actions. What could realistically happen? Could it be the start of a new civil war? Could unrest crash the stock market or affect the US $? look at refusefascism.org and on Twitter look up #nov4 #nov4itbegins could be troubling stuff, or just bunch of hippies in a park yelling like the Occupy thing, though on the site they talk about canvassing neighborhoods... The occupy movement had no defined end game just that it was against the 1%, but this one does, and excessive funding... what is your take on it?

Yes this is what I mean - change normally happens over a long period of time, but it seems to be accelerating, and listening to the available media it seems like we’ve gone from a downhill stroll to a sprint towards a cliff, but though the future projections may not be so far off, maybe it is not as immediate as it seems. I agree there is nothing we can do, people like Stephan speak out and inform - that is noble and will help to a point but as you say, in general we are punching a wave in the ocean, we can vote differently than before but that is about it, and even with that with the demographic shift it won’t matter, so it is best to adapt or prepare for the crash if that is even possible now (maybe watching too many disaster movies makes it seem impossibly fictional for everything to come down in the west or something). I wonder if we can restore the uptick conditions you speak of? How or where would you even start? Like if you are an environmentalist you can bring cloth bags to stores, but it is only a tear drop in the ocean, what actual difference can the average person make in order to live their life better, or what is the best strategy moving forward- for example- if you don’t already have kids, knowing what seems to be coming, why would you?

MGTOWs go their own way - away from dating generally, PUAs actively pursue as much as possible like it is a game. Red pill aims to see the way things really are with male-female interactions and what is really happening behind it all. They focus on self improvement and how to best operate within the environment. I would argue that generally PUAs are red pill but not all red pillers are PUAs. Some MGTOW could also be considered red pill - just using the awareness differently, though others just close off and ignore. Blue pill believes in the Disney romance storyline and has no idea of anything beyond or behind the scenes- living out the fairytale is the goal, even though a lot of it may be false or the situation not objectively worth it. Purple pill would be between red and blue.

Every day I read how there is a stock bubble, housing bubble, currency collapse coming, the environment is past its tipping point, possibility of nuclear war, open borders to the welfare state are creating havoc, and the nwo and agenda 2030 are right on track to enslave us all, along with many other indicators of impending doom. There are many facts to support all this, and there are definitely bad things happening, but what if it is just hyperanalysis and over dramatization now that info is so readily available and a big disaster is not so imminent? Trump is Satan incarnate if you listen to leftist media, but in reality looking neutrally he is no worse than any other president - they all had pros and cons. Changes are happening and more coming, but is it all as “end times” dire as it seems? Disaster is always imminent and looking back at the past even recently we made it through the economy in 2008 and through 9-11/ iraq etc, are we getting overly concerned about a collapse that won’t happen, or that won’t be so immediately catastrophic? For example, there is a seemingly imminent housing bubble ready to pop in canada- especially bc and ontario- yet in spite of the doom and gloom, Warren Buffet one of the most successful investors of all time bought into it and bet against it- successfully so far-https://www.fool.ca/2017/08/30/was-warren-buffetts-bet-against-canadian-housing-market-crash-right/ If it is really any day now that it all comes apart then we better all live like it will be our last chance - focus on the short term and checking off our bucket lists (which also ironically could make the debt bubble bigger depending on what you want to do, but if it is already imminent...) but if it isn’t, putting in tons of work building a business or working extra for that promotion for example - looking at the long term is important - but why put in hard work for future gain which won’t exist? Is prepping the only long term plan that will matter? So my question is- Are things really as “end times” dire as they seem, or just a bit more of the “same old” amplified due to media - (maybe we just didn’t know or see/hear as much before) and what is the most useful mindset and way of planning going forward in these times?
