The future that is planned for us

Postby cromwell » 15 Sep 2023, 13:02

No meat, no dairy, no trips abroad. No cars.
All thought up by another foreign billionaire, Mr Michael Bloomberg of New York City.

This stuff isn't a conspiracy theory, it's in plain sight.
And people will still vote for these politicians who will force this on us.
Unbelievable.

It's absolute bollocks, or is it?

Our generation might probably be the last to have had it so good. Unfortunately we will have done so by destroying the future for our descendants. We can do what what we like, go where we like, when we like and how we like. That might not be the case for my kids when they are my age. It certainly will not be for my grandchildren. They are going to be "controlled".

We selfish plebs are as much to blame for this as any politician or businessperson. It is what we want in the 'now' without any thought for the future.

Will you change how you now live to alter things in the future? I guess not. Drive to the pub for steak and chips, a flyby holiday to the Costas or further for some sun, get the latest gizmo to entertain you! Yup, that's us sorted, sod the grandkids.

Alexa, I need my bum wiping!

Have you read the Harry Harrison "To the Stars" trilogy?

Then you will know who is on the no meat, no dairy and no trips train and who is on the luxury train to utopia.

Forgive me for believing that we now live in the real world and not a work of fiction set in a future and a place that willl never exist.

The way we, today, are behaving will destroy the tomorrow of our children and grandchildren and on. It's down to us to sort it or say "Sod it" to our grandchildren. My bet is on "Sod It".

So is mine. Not from me, not from you, but from the vast majority of people who would simply have to educate themselves to understand what the problem really is. Many of them think education is something you have to endure in order to get on with your life.

I'll be dead. I've told the grandkids what the problem is and they are going to have to fix it. One of them is too busy playing computer games to be bothered.

Go figure.
