This Crisis begins with a huge inventory of nukes in place instead of being recent introductions to the military arsenal at the end.

In the original 4T book the authors described a crisis period is one in which social problems largely deferred during the 3T are addressed and dealt with. So far this does not seem to be happening via any large scale, and this is no doubt why a lot of people including posters here think that the 3T might have long overstayed its welcome. Here I shall share a post I just posted on another forum pertaining to this very issue in response to a 30-year-old man evicted by his own parents due to his deadbeat status:


I say much the same thing even though I don't justify the type of deadbeat status this guy embarked on. But I don believe that we have serious economic maladies that most seem to be afraid of seriously challenging. They are easily ignored by the MSM and other PTB so as not to cause friction. This is one of the key reasons why even Bernie Sanders' Presidential campaign was largely ignored for as long as possible. This because he was one of the few that had the balls to challenge said circumstances. Moving toward a new, more just paradigm is something the top 25% are deathly afraid of, or so it seems. Yet we need this energy – the hope, expanded community, generosity and
compassion. It helps us move beyond personal beliefs that divide us into
universal understanding and connectedness.Many including myself at times consider the social media now in vogue to subtract from true connectedness. Maybe today's world can take some lessons from the Boomers philosophy of their "free love" stage and ask this question: How will you open your heart a little bit more to yourself and all of us?


PS: It does seem very much as though most are simply too afraid to upset the corporate apple cart.
