A new world

Do you already know how you and your family are going to survive in a world without electricity or a limited amount of electricity for the people?

It seems to be coming and we can protest en masse but most likely it won't matter. Those few rich people have already decided what the new world will look like, for whom there is room and for whom there is not. For decades, they have been training people who, in their spirit, want to push the people in the right direction.

Everything has its advantages and disadvantages. Let's face it, a new world where literally everything is preordained and no one is allowed to travel anymore (the French prophet Nostradamus predicted this would happen already in the 16th century) can also give a lot of peace and, of course, it saves energy. I read that in Germany last Wednesday, the goods trains were stopped because of a lack of electricity. Whether this is really the case I doubt, but this aside. It is likely that soon many countries will follow the situation in Venezuela. Power cuts, queues for a bit of petrol and prices getting so high that it will be difficult to keep your head above water. Moving to a neighbouring country or overseas will be out of the question for many citizens. Without registration and your fifth injection, you will not be able to cross the border.

For that matter, you don't really have to travel anymore if your own living environment improves. Whether that will really happen is, of course, the question but imagine that it does because every criminal act is immediately punished. Rapes, stabbing fellow human beings in the street, muggings, cursing, not stopping at a red light or a zebra crossing, cursing shop assistants, the neighbours or customer service will suddenly all be a thing of the past, as will perhaps education for all, but let's face it today there are so many who would rather hang out in the streets than go to school that education for the unwilling is in fact a waste of time, energy and money. The frustration of teachers standing in front of a screaming class of students trying to teach while the class does everything in its power to bully the teacher away is also suddenly a thing of the past. With a bit of luck, the world will improve and so will humanity, although it does remind me a little of 'The Black Mirror' episode Nosedive which has already become a reality for a large number of people.

Today, 30 March 2022, the EU will decide whether to pass a law allowing to read citizen's emails, messages and so on.

Of course, it will pass. It is all part of the plan for a great, better world than the one we live in today. The terrorists, anyone who is a danger to society, will be found in time. Everyone who is out of line or talks nonsense believes in something (including God) will then be neatly disposed of. Politics, religion and sports are the three subjects about which people always argue. I learned this as a child. So they are not subjects about which you can have a healthy discussion as some people think. If you want to make enemies, you'd better avoid these topics of conversation. Silence is still the best motto and especially not thinking out loud. If you are a girl or an (older) woman, you may have grown up with these norms and values. Silence, usefulness, virtue is the motto. With a bit of luck, this will soon apply to men as well, you may ask. Of course, this will also apply to 'men'. In the new world, the new normal, we are all equal. We are all gender-neutral, all equally poor and with a bit of luck, if the Kalergi plan comes to fruition, we will all have the same skin colour. White no longer exists and neither does black. We are all in between, grey... we live in a grey world where we certainly cannot be self-sufficient if we want to be part of this safe new world. A world where you no longer have to think, decide, where nothing is allowed or possible, but you just have to behave nicely and decently, something that certainly many are looking forward to and not only the elderly who has been raised somewhat differently, namely with standards and values where you show respect for the elderly, take account of the neighbours, do not cause nuisance, you clean up your own mess, do not develop any initiatives and clucklessly take what is said for the truth and do what you are told.

There will always be someone in charge. Someone will always decide what you can or cannot do. You can say that you are free now, but you are not. From the moment you are born, there are others who will decide what is good for you and what is not good for you. These are the sacrifices we all have to make for living in a community, for living with many close to each other. In very large cities and densely populated countries, this will be even more so than in rural or sparsely populated countries.

I don't often hear this nowadays, but it is still true. Everything has its price and you cannot expect to live in a nice, clean, tidy world without doing your bit.

If I am annoyed by people who throw their rubbish in front of my door, then I should not behave in the same way. There are bins and containers that can be used and do you want less waste? Then you have to produce less. Some packaging materials are excellent for reuse. I have been doing that for years and so did my grandmother. Wrapping paper is a good example, as are ribbons, string, bows, bag closures and so on. Paper is suddenly scarce again, which surprises me because paper can be made from paper and also old rags, but the scarcity is probably not due to the raw material but to the fact that factories do not run on air or sun. If only they had done that, if they had provided for their own electricity supply (you would think that this would be possible with the millions in profits that they have made over the years) then there would be no problem for those few who had done this would be earning gold now.

One thing is always connected or the consequence of something else.

Those who were not born and raised in a certain country, know nothing about its history will never get it. All they see is the beauty and luxury, the appearances, not the sadness and poverty. That applies to everyone, the standard tourist can tell you all about it. We see what people want us to see, which is why the Dutch still walk on wooden shoes, eat tulip bulbs and sugar beets (although the latter was only to survive the war and they were right, too). It's just food and nothing to look down on).

That better world so many want, the fair sharing of everything and nobody owning anything is an idealistic aspiration.

In reality, there will always be a few people (families) who own everything. By everything, I mean the world's supply of seeds, the factories, the computers, social media, bitcoins, the media, the pharmaceutical industry, the land, air and sea, and also the wind and sun. How it is possible that air, water, wind and sun are the private property of a small elite is beyond me, but this is a fact and nothing will change in a new world. The only thing that will change is that the majority has nothing and will have to do its stinking best to treat others, nature and everything that flows from it with respect.

Bullying, scamming, criminal and disapproving behaviour according to the new norms and values are a logical consequence of this. In a better world, we may not have to love each other, but we will at least have to show respect. Cursing, swearing, aggressive behaviour, raising one's voice, showing emotions will no longer be tolerated. This will certainly be difficult for a large group of people and certain nations, but if one nation can do it, why can't another? After all, we are also convinced that we can teach animals tricks and if this does not work, it is not we as caretakers/leaders who have failed but the pet and it has to go or be put to sleep. Those who think that humans are the better animal species are wrong. People are just like animals. The majority of them are afraid of each other and need a leader, someone who is willing and able to take on all the responsibilities.

The majority of humanity is based on fears and needs a leader, someone who is willing and able to bear all the responsibilities simply because it provides peace, order, regularity and stress and fears are kept under control. In any case, in this new world, there will be considerably fewer doctors, psychologists, psychiatrists and the like, as well as nurses and other caregivers. In this world desired by many, aftercare is no longer necessary and those who are a bit older and still alive will have to take care of themselves or have family that takes on this task. Being sick, overweight, ageing costs society money and in a society where nobody has anything left there will be no money to keep the needy, disabled, sick and the very elderly alive. Anyone who cannot do it themselves has a problem and does not belong in the new world that we are going to create together.

When it comes to the disabled, the sick and the elderly, it strikes me that many who have to figure it out themselves fare better than the people who depend on the overburdened welfare state. I've seen it around me. He who cannot do otherwise, fights and does not allow himself to be defeated and also saves himself. The situation may not be ideal, but like all injured animals, humans can manage without depending on caretakers and the latest gadgets to make life 'bearable'. When it comes to bearable life for many isn't bearable at all at the moment anyway. Poverty is skyrocketing just as crime and current bosses enjoy the hate speech and chaos they create.

In history class, I learned that the only reason England won the war against the Scots and the Irish was that the Scottish and Irish clans were too busy fighting each other. I've never looked into whether that's true, but it's a fact. Whoever spreads hatred and division among the people does not have to get his own hands dirty. The people take care of their own destruction, kill their neighbour, the children. It's just an illusion children, the youth is our future. People are selfish we care about surviving ourselves that's why old, unhealthy looking men rule. Spreading hate, dividing, make the people killed their neighbours is the same game actually that I heard some Ukrainian (army) leaders shout: kill every Russian, kill their children and the nation dies out. I hope everyone, every citizen kills at least one Russian.

Norms and values... it seems most of us don't have them anymore.

I don't have a monopoly on the truth and like everyone else, I too was raised largely by the state in which I was born and raised, society even though I was never really accepted by that same society. Once a foreigner, always a foreigner even if it is the umpteenth generation. Whoever was raised in a country with certain norms and values ​​will also think like that country and this will never really change. The colour of your skin or the origin of your parents does not change that much. Some peoples are patriotic, others are less so, but we all have our own behaviour and our own thoughts about our neighbours. A neighbour that we like or prefer to see leave. In the new world, those opportunities will still be there to have someone we don't like removed. The anonymous telephone numbers are there for a reason, just like the judges who no longer administer justice, but only stand up for certain people. Judges who no longer follow the law and facts but based on how certain people feel simply because this is possible and because snitches and also black thinkers are also important in a new world to maintain order.

Do you think this is all utopia, conspiracy, a theory tot schare you?

Then see what life was like for many in 1930 and then 1933-1938. What did people think back then, what was important to them did they struggle with and what norms and values ​​did they adhere to? Could they afford to waste resources, products, food and clothing? Did they use so much energy to have a better life (we can't blame it all on watching the telly or using a PC).

I grew up with two sets of clothes, an old one for playing outside on the street, and a new dress each year for Sundays and holidays. I still don't have a closet full of clothes (not even a wardrobe), not more than two pairs of shoes, we share the water boots with the whole family and we are frugal with energy. Not only do I turn off the light, but I also walk around quietly in the dark when there is no more daylight. Believe me, going to bed is the sun goes down and waking up at sunrise is really not a bad thing, it can even do your health good. Artificial light is not good for your brain which needs rest.

In a new world without too much privacy, you can also count on that tranquillity. The walls won't have ears, but the people behind the paper-thin walls will. Neat houses like this have been built with us for years. You can literally hear how many pieces of toilet paper someone tears off, what is being said and who is talking in their sleep. Nuisance from loud music, yelling, arguing neighbours will be a thing of the past, as will pets and any kind of noise.

Nuisance from loud music, yelling, neighbours arguing, the stench of barbeques and garbage burning in the yard by neighbours will be a thing of the past, as will pets and any kind of affection where there will be someone who thinks this is going too far is transgressive behaviour.

The new world isn't necessarily a bad one.

What we make of it is up to us. You can step neatly in step and evolve into a better person, a useful tool and a worthy member of the community or throw in the towel and risk being left on your own. Everything has a price and it's just what you pay to live a safe and cared-for life without always having to say: Life isn't fair, I have just as much right to a bed and good food as anyone who works hard for it.

Let's see in twelve months from now what is realized and how we feel about the new world order. A life without skills, creativity, religion, politics and sport. A world where most of us are equal unless we are born in the wrong country, with the wrong social status and are surrounded by the wrong people.
