“I find it harder and harder to write articles pointing out the absurdity of everything going on around me,” writes Jim Quinn, founder of The Burning Platform (TBP), one of the best alternative finance sites on the ‘net. I’ve long been an admirer of Quinn’s work, and Quinn has endured much of the same censorship, threats and demonetization attacks that I’ve also experienced over the years as we’ve tried to help awaken others to reality.
Quinn and I see the world in much the same way, and we’ve come to a similar conclusion about the sheer insanity that has taken hold of our world. In a recent piece, he writes:
Facts won’t matter until they matter. I wonder what historians fifty or one hundred years from now will say about this profoundly corrupt, aberrational, willfully ignorant episode in world history. How could we be so stupid, egotistical and disinterested in the fate of future generations by wasting the wealth of the unborn to live above our true means today? The selfishness, greed and myopia of those steering the ship of state, and the willingness of the masses to go along with the lies as long as they can be distracted and entertained by their phones is mind numbingly ludicrous in my opinion.
When he’s saying, “facts won’t matter until they matter,” he’s pointing out that none of the crazies who keep ratcheting up the global debt scheme have ever encountered a boundary that corrected their lunacy. No millennial investors have ever had to think about real earnings vs. stock prices, for example, because they’ve been able to make money by investing in “virtual signaling” IPOs that are fueled by liberal gobbledygook claims of “conscious capitalism” or “technology communities.”
One day soon, the reality is going to hit the fan for an entire generation of young investors, and they’re all going to learn a very difficult, very expensive and universally mind-blowing lesson that will shock their collective psyche for life. When the day comes that “the facts” actually matter, all these millennial investors will learn the harsh reality that groovy-sounding corporations founded on a business model of perpetually losing money while claiming to be “visionaries” actually don’t survive very long. Sooner or later, the money runs out… even other people’s money. And a screaming match of virtue signalling, political correct talk about “inclusiveness” and “tolerance” can’t overcome sustained, gargantuan financial losses.
The day that millennial investors lose everything is the day that they might begin to rejoin reality. Until their lunacy is rejected, in other words, they have no reason to drop their false beliefs. Massive financial losses by the virtue signaling left-wing lunatics of our society will inevitably help collapse their delusions about transgenderism and cultural issues, too. Because if companies can perpetually lose money while being propelled on hopes and dreams, then why can’t men become women and get pregnant, after all?
It’s all related: Young people who believe in transgenderism also believe that companies don’t have to make money to operate, as long as they are “doing good” via virtue signaling. Both of those beliefs are wildly false, yet they’ve both been artificially propped up by a society that has been fueled by crazy for far too long.
If crazy could create sustainable economic models, then Venezuela’s streets would all be paved with gold. But crazy only works for a temporary period of time, and once crazy runs out of steam, reality slams home like a cold, hard b#tch slap to the face. When reality hits, crazy goes into hiding.
It’s not just the IPOs that are propped up by delusion, of course. It’s also the global debt pyramid that, almost by definition, will be mercilessly horse-whipped into irrational expansion in order to avoid any sort of reality-based reckoning that would topple the entire system.
Almost no one living today seems to have any clue that debt can’t be perpetually expanded without catastrophic long-term consequences. Even Trump, who campaigned on the dangers of Obama’s reckless government spending, has been utterly unable to enforce fiscal discipline in Washington. And yet, it is an unwavering truth that all debts are paid, either by the borrower or the lender, sooner or later. And this means the future looks rather bleak for the workers of the world from which governments and central banks will be forced to confiscate unprecedented wealth in order to bail themselves out… most likely while seizing citizens’ assets at gunpoint.
“I simply cannot visualize a positive outcome to our current Crisis situation,” Quinn writes:
No one blinks an eye at $22 trillion in debt, trillion dollar annual deficits, 0% interest rates for ten years, $17 trillion of negative interest debt in the world, retro-active adjustments to GDP and savings rate calculations to make them more positive, 40% of the working age population not working – but unemployment reported as 3.7%, inflation reported at less than 2% when the average person experiences inflation in excess of 5%, corporations using their billions in tax cuts to buy back stock to boost their stock price, a military waging undeclared wars across the globe, an out of control surveillance state monitoring our communications, media companies using propaganda and censorship to push their new world order agenda, and $200 trillion of unfunded liabilities that cannot be honored.
Yes, it’s bad. Too many promises have been made that can never be fulfilled: Promises of earnings, retirement funds and growth. The really big, dangerous promise is the promise that you will be able to continue living off other people’s money in perpetuity. You’ll never have to write the check for the benefits you’re enjoying today. That promise is actually a grand, malicious lie. And in the financial world, all lies eventually come to an end. The bigger the lie, the bigger the final catastrophe that exposes it.
When this grand lie implodes, there will be so many heads exploding that you’ll need to carry an umbrella to avoid all the brain matter raining down upon the world. The very idea that we can’t continue to live on the earnings of future wage earners is alien to the working generations of today. The short-term benefits of debt expansion have already been factored into their comfort of life, and when you’re spending other people’s money, life can be made surprisingly comfortable. But when the day comes that you have to give up all those comforts and start living within your means, life gets harsh. Reality sucks when you’re broke. The party’s over and the suck takes over.
Reality not only sucks; it’s also unrecognizable to the working masses of today. Almost no one under the age of 45 has ever lived in the real world when it comes to investments, finance and debt, so when that reality hits home, we’re going to discover that their neurology flat-out can’t handle the new calibration to fiscal reality. Their entire worldview will be shattered, and they will of course look for someone to blame. (Someone other than themselves, of course.)
When it all comes crashing down, what will be blamed for the global debt collapse catastrophe? Freedom, of course. The corporations and banks have too much freedom, we’ll be told, and the answer to everything will be masses of morons begging for bigger government and stronger central banks.
All voices of reason will, of course, be utterly censored and mocked. Only the voices calling for an expansion of authoritarianism, surveillance and the size of government will be allowed to speak. The masses will be ordered whom to hate, and they will obediently line up to chant their surrogate hatred toward whatever intended target they are ordered to attack by the mind-numbing media.
After all, isn’t this exactly what CNN has already done to whip up organized hatred for Trump supporters?
The bigger the crisis, the louder the call for more government intervention. That’s why the world’s controllers don’t mind a catastrophic collapse, you see. From chaos, they can assert control. From desperation, they can expand government intervention into everything. And from destitution, they can promise comfort in exchange for individuals surrendering their liberties.
Never let a crisis go to waste, they say. And they aren’t planning to. In fact, the coming global debt crisis is being highly anticipated and even welcomed by the globalist powers, for they can use it to eliminate any last shred of economic freedom, independent media and skepticism of big government. To emerge from the ashes of this global, engineered financial apocalypse, the masses of the world will be required to surrender every last fiber of freedom or independent thought. All those who oppose the rise of the global financial and surveillance overlords will be silenced, if not exterminated. The call for government to “save us!” will drown out every last drop of reason that might have somehow survived to that point.
The world is going to collapse into totalitarianism, and the people will beg for a government savior to unite the nations and bring peace and prosperity to all. Those of you who have read the Book of Revelation already know the real identity of this person, by the way: The Antichrist.
And now you know how this epoch really ends. It isn’t pretty.
Don’t claim to be surprised when it all comes down and the people of the world go utterly insane. This has all been foreseen and recorded thousands of years ago, conveyed to writers by a divine being who can see across time as easily as you and I look across a field of grass. These events cannot be avoided. The world will succumb to the rise of the Antichrist, and all those who oppose him will be targeted for extermination. The Mark of the Beast is real, and you will be required to use it or face complete detachment from modern society. (If you take the mark and engage in that system, by the way, you will be rejected from Heaven, the Bible explains.)
If you want to know what happens next, read the Bible. It is the single most prophetic and accurate recording of events yet to pass that humanity has ever possessed. Regardless of your religion, you’d be a fool not to heed the words of a divine being who already saw the future and made sure it was meticulously recorded for the benefit of all humankind. Now it’s happening before our very eyes, and the mad rush into oblivion by the deranged masses cannot be stopped.
Humanity cannot be saved from itself. And trying to awaken humanity to its own destructive ways is a fool’s errand. All we can really do at this point is save our souls and encourage others to save theirs. The great battle now moves beyond the realm of the physical and well into the realm of the spiritual. Fortunately, souls are bulletproof, meaning that even the most insane, authoritarian, gun-wielding tyrannical government can’t destroy your soul unless you volunteer to participate in that destruction.
Your fate, in essence, is your choice. Will you fall to the seduction of the Antichrist and global governance? Or will you stand with life, liberty and God against the zombie masses and their demonic destruction of the world?
