"Lawmakers said repeatedly they think Facebook should probably be regulated. But there was no consensus at all on that point -- what exactly should be regulated, or even what the biggest problems are. "

You saw this coming, and put it in your story...

Almost everything in the book has a good chance of "coming true". There will be more signs of this soon. It's the purpose of the work.

*Not everything will happen that way, for instance, I doubt that the gas rationing will happen the way I described. That was all about artistic license.

My guess is that we will see attacks coming from specific groups coming as early as May this year. It will take time for things to build up. Hopefully we short circuit all of it though!

**It isn't magic or psychic powers. We are on a certain road. Roads, by their nature, tend to deliver one to a specific destination.

I'm hoping that statements in this video, apply instead of the most radicalized going underground to prep for the events in your book. The video is titled Leftist Lethargy & Low Energy. If the crazies can just burn themselves out on their own paranoia that would be awesome.

I've actually seen that one before! The Youtuber is a psychology student with a touch of autism and a LOT of good ideas about what is going on and why...

That doesn't mean that people won't gain energy as things pick up in action. Like most things, the hotter it gets, the easier it is to get things to burn. If we can keep terror events from really taking place long enough then it should burn out. On the other hand, if the press and hidden parts of the government keep supporting them, then those prone to terrorism will eventually pick up steam.

*Make no mistake: Outside of war, people won't take violent actions against others. Not unless they start out as mentally unstable. All of the shooters/bombers/van and car ramming experts and so on are, for now, crazy people that tend not to be very bright.

When things light off for real, then we will see that change. That's also the point that things get very dangerous.

Wow. I sound pretty paranoid in the post above!

Which is true enough, but man... That isn't the kind of thing you want people to know about you.

Better to be paranoid than to be credulous.
