Similar symptoms across the whole western world. Same ideology for many decades, possibly a hundred years or more. It is worst than being subject to tyrannical edicts like dump cattle. At least in an open (acknowledged) tyranny you know you are in one. This is an inversion of reality.
In the future, expect:
- Being taxed to death. It not only steals half or more of what you produce, it does so for what you consume as well, tilting the whole price structure.
- The current financial/monetary/entitlement systems are a ponzi scheme. All incoming immigrants will also need a larger cohort of suckers under them. The fertility crisis is a cultural issue. Good luck going against that lol. See prediction 3.
- Having your genetic and cultural heritage in the country being diluted to nothing. No foundational pillars to sustain it all. Instead a post national economic zone with international ''citizens'' (producer/consumer cattle).
- Controlled, censored, and propagandized internet and other media forms (it was already de case for the latter).
- Forced (preventive (lol!)) medical interventions. What if they declare a mental health crisis and you are forced to take meds for your mental health? We don't want loose canons in oUr dEMOcratTy after all.
- More renting and subscription services, less ownership.
- Never ending climate crisis with progressing restrictions on everything.
- Obsession with IDENTITY. What a visionary Mao was.
- The state supplementing parental rights.
- Clowns, MANY MANY CLOWNS!
