I generated this thesis in part by investigating the repetitive use of the meme word " surprised ". The procession of things in our society moves like the works of a clock, with feigned " surprise " moments played with throughout the process to avoid the collective recognition an artificial, architected reality.
That’s how things have worked going all the way back to ancient Rome, where, then as now, the ruling-lineage Neanderthal would send “bread and circuses” out among the mob to quell dissent.
I’m feeling that in the wind, right now. Did you notice they weren’t able to stop Brexit?
Bread and Circuses (Wikipedia) "This phrase originates from Rome in Satire X of the Roman satirical poet Juvenal (c. AD 100). In context, the Latin panem et circenses (bread and circuses) identifies the only remaining interest of a Roman populace which no longer cares for its historical birthright of political involvement . Here Juvenal displays his contempt for the declining heroism of contemporary Romans, using a range of different themes including lust for power and desire for old age to illustrate his argument.[6] Roman politicians passed laws in 140 BC to keep the votes of poorer citizens, by introducing a grain dole: giving out cheap food and entertainment, “bread and circuses”, became the most effective way to rise to power.
[…] iam pridem, ex quo suffragia nulli / uendimus, effudit curas; nam qui dabat olim / imperium, fasces, legiones, omnia, nunc se / continet atque duas tantum res anxius optat, / panem et circenses. […]
… Already long ago, from when we sold our vote to no man, the People have abdicated our duties ; for the People who once upon a time handed out military command, high civil office, legions — everything, now restrains itself and anxiously hopes for just two things: bread and circuses.[7]
—Juvenal, Satire 10.77–81
It is the populace abdicating its duties that is at the root of the problem, not the Dictator. Which Reich tirelessly noted:
“It was one of the greatest errors in evaluating dictatorship to say that the dictator forces himself on society against its own will. In reality, every dictator in history was nothing but the accentuation of already existing state ideas which he had only to exaggerate in order to gain power.”
― Wilhelm Reich, The Mass Psychology of Fascism
Fascism . It’s a Roman thing. The fasces of Ancient Rome are on the wall of our House of Representatives.

It’s why our Senate has the same name as it did back then. The same people have been in charge - one single, ancient bloodline - then to now.
The current news, below: natural gas prices are currently where they were in the 70’s. The wealthy are saying “tax us more.” Things are booming in Europe post-Brexit. There is a suddenly hot job market.
Maybe it’s a setup for “economy too good, Trump re-elected!”
Yet, now, suddenly, because it is a “strategy of tension”, the “coronavirus” card is played for maximum effect, to cover for the collapsing technology sector, and the collapsing automotive sector - mean-spirited Western materialism having apparently finally run its course?
An even more cheering possibility is that creating a world that is sum-total negative is simply not possible in a healthy Etheric environment. And that things like non-generational-Satanist rich people offering their money to help, and cheap gas, are just part of what is naturally happening at the moment.
Just a couple of the positive changes that are occurring.
I think we’re turning the corner, that’s for sure.
