#1 Trudeau just hit the leadership team, but they set the precedent. Interesting that the out of office next administration is able to extend his template in another hemisphere. It is almost as if there is a totalitarian portion of many governments that coordinate their actions.

#2 Yup. This is going to be standard from now on. Everything you cheered for when it was done to Russia, is going to be done to you. And you have nobody to blame but yourself.

#6 The 2020 US putsch redefined the word 'Democracy' for the world.

Democracy (n)- a system of government where only votes cast for Democrats are valid and the electoral machine is a quadrennial pressure valve for the masses.

#7 I wonder if the people "supervising" the Brazilian election are the same ones supervising ours.

#8 Yep, banks will no longer be trusted. And the more you put these people in a corner, the less reason they will have to refrain from nailing the leaders and their families to trees. Push people far enough back into the corner and you give them nothing left to lose.

#9 You reduce political opposition to monetary impotence, and have visibility into every aspect of a person's life and connections. Digital currency, the ultimate tool for control.

World-wide people have been lured in the past 20+ years by the chimera of "convenience" and "ease of transaction (consider your own experience at the grocery store watching the epic flailing for so many using credit cards to get the system to approve a purchase, and the ease of cash transactions). My WallyWorld experience these days is 75% of people use cards for all purchases in person, and in these hard times seeing multiple card use to pay for groceries, or cards and EBT/SNAP debit cards, is a tragic proof of the impact of the deepening recession.
