Check out the British series called"The Capture" to get just a glimpse of what kind of surveillance state we already live under. And it started filming six years ago, so you can just imagine how much the technology, particularly AI, has advanced since
See, that is the scary part, what we see are just glimpses behind the curtain as it occasionally flutters. The true state of the situation is further advanced than we know.
I agree. I suspect they're well ahead of what's public knowledge. The more AI and automation advance, the less need for us "useless eaters." No wonder they've been working so hard to cull our numbers.
It seems “Black Mirror” the excellent show similar in quality to “The Twilight Zone,” is written by people who know what’s just around the corner for humanity.
I note in the comments that the words “scary” and “terrifying” keep cropping up. Not just here but everywhere. While there is every reason to feel such emotions, we are also inadvertently playing along with the most fundamental trap of all and that is to keep us all in a permanent state of fear. This lowers our vibrations, affects our health, prevents us from thinking clearly and just eats away at us over time. Replace that fear with mere awareness as being in a state of fear will not help and only make matters worse. Being aware may or may not help us, depending on how many others wake up to this nightmare situation we are already in and one that is about to get far worse. It will at least keep us in the best possible state to face whatever is ahead. We should also take some comfort in the fact that all of this is anti-human and against nature. So far everything that goes against natural law eventually ends up destroying itself and the only question is how long it will take and how many casualties there will be.
After more than 10 years fighting this and trying to spread the word and finding that we are far far behind in this fight, too few are even there is fight that needs to be fought, fear is, for me anyway, an appropriate response. Every single electronic transaction I make in Japan where I have resided for 25 years is reported to the US. All my bills here must be paid electronically. Didn’t use to be. I had to provide my US SSN for the first time after years in Japan to open a new bank account. This requirement will eventually be foisted upon my kids too, despite the fact that they are Japanese citizens. The do not have US SSNs. In Europe, such people have had their accounts closed or worsen frozen, until they can provide proof to their banks that they are in 100% compliance with US tax law. We are no closer to ending this lawlessness than we were when I first learned of it, more than a decade ago.
At the end of last year, I received a threatening letter from the pension office here. Despite paying income taxes, it came out that I was 14 years behind in pension payments. Not sure how they come up with that number, but they can only force 2 years in back payments. After the loss of work due to the panic, I didn’t have the money. As she would lose the house and car if this bill was not paid, my wife paid it…and then notified me that she is divorcing me. Even with all the cuts I made, I do not earn enough to continue living in Japan on my current income and new positions have proven elusive. I am looking at homelessness in Japan of returning to the US, a county I have not lived in for a quarter of century nor even visited in 15 or so years and most likely have to leave a large portion of my belongings behind.
I have items I could sell to prevent much of this and others have offered to help, but as all transactions through my accounts are already tracked and reported to the US, and have been since at least 2014, I refuse these options that used to freely available. And it is only getting worse. Hell, because I forget to deposit enough money in to my account for the mandated automatic payment to me credit card company, I have found it hard to even pay that bill despite finialy being able to have the sum deducted from my account.
Ever see Zulu Dawn? If not, great movie. I am the runner from the forces engaged alerting the commanding officer of the impending rout only to be told that the situation does not warrant fear. Interesting how that played out in the end for that battle.
After watching the enemy approach unopposed for over a decade, all reports, urgings, warnings completely, utterly ignored, they are now with in our lines and most on “our” side will not roust themselves out of their cots.
I certainly wasn’t trying to make light of your situation with my comment and perhaps I’d also be in a state of fear and panic if I was in your situation. It’s easy to make suggestions when you’re not facing such a situation but I was making a more general comment in the hope that at least some people can find a way to convert such fear into something more positive. I’m also stuck in some kind of no-man’s land and have not lived in my home country for nearly 40 years and haven’t even been back there for a visit for 20 years. And yet I have no faith in the government here or any other government for that matter. The only saving grace I have is that I’m not subject to US criminal control but who’s to say that the excuse for a government currently in control of the UK won’t try to invent some way to extort money out of me in the future. I also live in fear too but now I actively catch myself lapsing into such fear and at least try to convert that fear into something less debilitating. In the meantime, I try to live in the moment and not worry about what might happen tomorrow or next week or next year. It’s a constant battle but I feel it’s better than just total surrender.
Wish you all the best and hope things get better for you. Although divorce will only add to your stress and present further challenges, it seems your relationship has been pretty much non-existent for a long time and could be a blessing in disguise although you will obviously be concerned for the future of your kids.
I don’t know how these words will be received and I pretty much type these words as they come to me but hope the intention comes across in the right way. Take care my friend!
Sorry, I didn’t mean to come across as thinking that you were making light of my situation. I was attempting to convey that there comes a time when fear is appropriate. IF I had seen even the hint of a shadow, heard the faintest whisper of a response against the juggernaut, fear may not be my response. But I haven’t, not in the over 10 years I have been trying to warn people of this. Instead, of resistance, I find most are looking forward to the convenience of it, can’t wait for it. Are in fact paying huge sums of many to sign up for it.
I do not know, or at least recall, where you are, but if it is in an OECD country, then at some point all your financial data’s will be shared with all member nations through that organization’s Common Reporting Standards, if it isn’t already, for that is the publicly stated goal of that program.
The battle is nearly over and we haven’t even taken to the field yet.
On a personal note, you are correct that part from never seeing my kids again, breaking away from the preexwife is not a bad thing.
I have witnessed the same phenomenon - people just blindly signing up for anything their government tells them to in the name of convenience.
BTW, I’m a Hong Kong permanent resident. originally from the UK. I’ve already seen what the future looks like across the border in Shenzhen, Mainland China and it’s full on dystopia there and nobody is aware of it. It’s only a matter of time before HK gets swallowed up by it.
I have am Australian-HK dual National friend in HK who just bought a home in Australia. He sees the encroachment all too clearly.
What actually frightens me is we in the are not standing up to this. Our histories and our systems should have taught us to stop this before it even got underway. I am not surprised nor made fearful by Asians in their native lands going for this. It follows with history, broadly and generically speaking. But when American here in Japan and back home, when my esteemed colleagues, friends and acquaintances from various Western lands go all in for the wonderful convenience of the digital prison it is demoralizing to say the least.
I totally agree. I was of the mind that what happens in China, stays in China and treated the mainland like a parallel universe that I could enter and leave as I pleased. While I never considered going back to the UK, it was always comforting that however crazy things might get here, things back there would not change that much. How naive I was and now the mindset of family and friends back there is so different that it’s as if we no longer speak the same language. Having said that, there are definitely people who are awake and always have been but I think they are totally outnumbered. Interesting times ahead for sure.
Would love to get to know your Aussie friend if he’s still in town as I don’t know anyone here who is even remotely awake. It won’t change the outcome but it’s somehow comforting to know there’s not just be but two of us!!!
Canada's new interim prime minister, Mark Carney, is a WEF globalist who's a big fan of CBDCs and digital IDs. These are scary, scary times.
They all are, aren’t they? We are so close the complete, 100%, 24/7 digital surveillance that it is terrifying.

I do think that we are well ahead of the general public, yet, I think we know but a tiny fraction of what TPTB have already achieved.
It seems “Black Mirror” the excellent show similar in quality to “The Twilight Zone,” is written by people who know what’s just around the corner for humanity.
Also The Simpsons, as well as the last season of the X-Files.

In not fear, perhaps it is time for despair?
