How long to sway public opinion?
🗣️ DISCUSSION 💬
I believe many in our community share the expectation that a significant event may occur before the election, potentially shifting up to 95% of the country in favor of Trump. With that in mind, is anyone else feeling a bit anxious about what could happen? Are you anticipating a cyberattack, a nuclear threat, a stock market crash, or something else?
With the election just two months away, things are still relatively calm—certainly not enough to wake up those who haven’t been awakened yet. In your opinion, how soon would such an event need to happen to effectively change public opinion?
My pet theory is a ballistic missile, presumed nuclear, but instead of releasing MIRVs the whole thing slams into the ground somewhere, and is not nuclear or conventional but a dud. The whole thing will be a mass media event, mass panic, but for some reason there is no counter attack by the USA (or Europe if that is the location). It will demonstrate that Russia can attack, but the west cannot retaliate. Putin will say this is just a demonstration. Something notable will be hit, but the area would have been evacuated during the flight-time. Everyone will think it is WW3 going nuclear, but it will not pan-out like that. Everyone will understand (during the flight-time) this is the precipice of total war and mass-destruction, but will get a reprieve when it's nothing more than a kinetic weapon.
Then we clean house, get all the commies rounded up and taken out of power forever, lest we risk the real thing.
(advice: don't shit your pants when it happens, be remembered for your stoicism in the face of death)
