Alright GA community, I've heard it said in regards to Covid, jab mandates and general government overreach world wide, that things will get worse before they get better. To me, this comes across as a vague platitude that offers very little in the way of real help. It's already looking pretty grim in many parts of the world. Australia and New Zealand look to be experiencing the hardest treatment from their governments, but in other places many people are being forced by their jobs to get the jab or lose their job.
All that said, I want to challenge this community and ask: How specifically will things get worse? Who do you think will be most affected by things? How would one prepare? Do you have an opinion of what will be the turning point for things to get better? Open discussion, please share your thoughts and opinions. I don't want this to be a doomer thread. Just share what you think people could realistically expect to experience over the next few months or years. I'm genuinely interested to hear what you have to say. How bad will things get before they start getting better?
EDIT: Let's keep this based on Q posts as much as possible. I'm actually fairly new to Q and have watched a lot of the videos provided by the GA mods, but still researching a lot and learning from you all. I've been with the MAGA movement since 2016 back when The_Donald was on Reddit. I started coming over here to GA back in January after the 'Inauguration'. You all provided a lot of hope when it all seemed lost.
Personal values. I believe we will all meet whatever it is to challenge whatever your personal values are. Fortify yourselves.
Your family - fortify your children, your in-laws, your parents and beyond. We will all be dealing with their crumbling values and their shedding vacx's.
Your stores of food and water. This is vital and has been foretold for ages - if you don't have your stores ready - grab all the cans you can.n Store as much water as you are able.
Gas up everything you can and your gas cans. Batteries. Wood for warmth if necessary.
Neighborhood. If you haven't already, cultivate relationships in your neighborhood to support one another.
Write, call all your state and fed gov't reps to state your opinion. Quiet no more.
Finally, create joy. This, is, key.
Good points, and my wife & I have much of this in place. Extra food, drinking water, supplies, and good relations with our neighbors. Having gone through a few days of no electricity because of snow & ice has helped our neighborhood to pull together in times of crisis.
I think that last point about creating joy is more important than most people might realize. I play guitar and can pass the time in constructive ways. My wife has a bazillion books on the shelf she wants to read but can't find the time to get to. My kids have more toys than they know what to do with, and we limit their screen time quite a bit so they know how to have imaginitive play. Those types of things are good ways to take your mind off the overwhelming problems at hand.
