What has changed irrevocably is the Government’s loss of the media. They have broken their main instrument of propaganda. The mighty Wurlitzer is kaput and Trump doesn’t have the tools to fix it. In that article,
the New York Times implies they will have to move to some planB, but there is no planB. The
honeymoon is over and there is no rebuilding the relationship. You can’t propagandize people who
won’t believe anything you tell them.

The rulers have only two ways out of that hole: 1) huge concessions to the people, to regain trust, or 2)
a quick dive into total tyranny—the Mordor solution. They seem to have chosen #2, since we have
seen the WEF and other places praise the Chinese model. They see that as far short of Mordor and
workable. But they are missing two things: a) they themselves don’t want to live in China, so if they
turn the US and Europe into China, where are they going to hide? b) Americans and Europeans are not
Asians, and have not been brought up on that model. Asians were raised with huge levels of discipline
even before Communism came along, but Westerners never were, and especially aren’t now. Faced
with that future, Westerners would either resist or balk. Very few of them would accept it, even with
high levels of violence and force. Even a prison relies on compliance. If all the inmates refuse to bust
rocks, make license plates, or follow orders, you have a total breakdown. At that point you don’t have a
Chinese model, you have an African model, and the rulers don’t like the African model, since it isn’t
profitable. Right now, Africa is highly profitable only as a source of natural resources, like minerals,
but that relies on rich nations buying the minerals. If the whole world becomes like Africa, the
worldwide economy breaks down. Africans have very little excess wealth to tax or steal. Like Native
Americans, they have almost nothing the Phoenicians want except mineral rights. So moving the world
to the African model is the last thing they should want. The Western model was far more profitable in
every way, way beyond the Chinese model, since we had far more disposable income. So it is hard to
believe the Phoenicians want to move us to the Chinese model. It makes no financial sense.

As I keep telling them, they should be reversing into the 1950s model as fast as their little feet and big
noses will carry them, since that is where they maximized profit/stability at the same time. To do that
requires they regain trust, and they cannot regain trust without huge concessions. Instead of empty
mouthings of democracy and freedom, they have to re-install real democracy and freedom. If they
can’t become benevolent overnight, they at least have to quit being so transparently malevolent. They
have to reverse the sled, drive it down from Mount Crumpet, and give back the presents they have
stolen during the night, making some effort to be less green and Grinchy. Nothing else will do.
