RE: Sky Colours: Walking Story and Some Rant

Well, that's an interesting question. There's no chance of that at all. The Government controls the army and the army controls the thugs. Mess with one and get the other at your throat. Once, we had the chance of having an Opposition Parliament. It didn't work as they pulled something from their asses to create another Parliament to keep making laws as they want. All this happens as the people are kept into surviving mode because of all the shit happening.

It is interesting though. Never thought I'd live inside a dystopic sci-fi story.

I see the US headed that same direction. It's been a ticking time bomb for decades, but COVID response policies seem to have accelerated the slide. We have the illusion of a two-party system with lots of liberty rhetoric, but it's always one step forward, then at least two steps back.

I've been reading this kind of stuff from over countries as well. Seems we are going to a proverbial shitstorm.

One of the reasons I have been writing more about survival kits and home cooking is because I want to encourage people to make just a little effort toward skills and tools which will go a long way if my pessimism proves prophetic. Of course, I also write about fund stuff because I would hate to be one of those gloom-and-doom types who only shouts at everyone.

Yeah, the choice is either help or be a doomsayer. I guess the former is better. Besides, it isn't content for everyone. A lot of people should have those skills regardless of the forecast for the future but all this mechanization of the world has turned them into lazy things.
