It’s not exactly a prediction at this point, right? It’s an ongoing process, and it has been in motion for decades.

Here's the deal. They can suck my fucking dick.

We have this now.

Man, 4chan people really nail it on the head sometimes. A slow-burn is likely more probable than a sudden catastrophe. Honestly, it feels like we've been slow-burning for about 20 years now.

I live in Europe,

in fact in one of the worst european countries in terms of living standards (for young people at least), Spain

You wouldn't believe how shitty everything is becoming. People with less than 30 with a house in property in almost a miracle, even paying mortgage. People without a job or accumulating short-term contracts of jobs that have nothing to do with their multiple graduate studies,... totally normal. People paying 2/3 of their salary in housing + gasoline and people working in 2 different jobs and barely paying bills... totally normal.

Life is becoming a piece of shit.

I agree with most of this except people will be told they are strong, beautiful, and brave, for accepting less and less everyday, while they implode with obesity and diabetes being stuffed with high fructose corn syrup and other shit additives they say help the environment

That’s dark

Dark that people sat around a table and agreed to groom a society over decades with the ‘slow boil’ technique (like cooking a frog, slowly so he doesn’t notice the water boiling him) to create medieval serfs.

I described Blackrock/ Greystar as that way, but the fact this comment was written in 2013 and is so exact for life the past year, is poignant and depressing

I mean that’s already happened pretty much….

There was a time when I would have agreed wholeheartedly with this assessment, but now I would actually disagree completely.

Greg Carlwood made the offhand comment recently that, "Everything's been turned up to 11 lately. If They dialed the control and corruption back to, say, a seven, like it was in the 80's and 90's, we'd all just think things were fine like we did then."

Okay, so why not? Sure, it'd take them 50 or 100 years longer to get where They're going, but They've already been at it for centuries. Doesn't seem like that would be a problem. As it is, They've woken up people by the millions and tens of millions over just the last few years.

Is time running out on some clock They are looking at?

I don't understand why dystopia speculation always involves crushing the human will, I don't believe that will happen. More like a scenario like we already have: a portion of the population will question the greed and a portion of the population will be oblivious. This also somehow assumes platforms like reddit, 4chan and social media will also no longer be a place to express yourself. It just doesn't add up.

That's the current state of things for far too many people.

This was made clear as day in the past year. This is already my life now.

To hell with that. You will have a wife and kids, you will have something to be proud of, you will have your own land, and you will eat steak. Get this poisonous rhetoric out of your heads before it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy.

The hollow men is not about people who were dealing with the NWO precursors - it’s about people who made no decision in their lives and decided to be the “lukewarm” types who never committed to anything in their lives and were thus condemned to suffer in a world with nothing bc they chose to be nothing.

Not trying to be edgy or whatever, but it's really odd to me all the use of future tense in the image and in the title of this post. I don't see any part of that which doesn't already apply. It's not the future; it's already here in the present and is just going to continue along that way getting worse. Rome didn't collapse from a single or even a few particular events. It was a process that went on for centuries.

Not really for me. I work not even close to as hard as I used to but I make more money and I’ve had more time to spend with my family and friends and explore other possibilities. I don’t feel as time is running out or I care less about anything. Coming from poverty and a destructive upbringing to where I am now, everything is a blessing in some way or another. Perspective has changed for the better, even with all the “bad” going on.

"If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stomping on a human face. Forever."

This is already happening, but for now it's being ignored because it's only happening to the poorest of people, so we wouldn't even know. The collapse of the US has been ongoing for a few years now, we are about to see the grand finale.

It will definitely continue to get worse, but I disagree that it will remain gradual- I believe they are trying to make us fearful and hostile towards each other with their economic actions, and there will be a sudden event used to initiate the next step in the process.

Personally, I think we can tell what's going to happen by looking at the timeline of the Weimar Republic, as it seems to be the exact same playbook. Other genocides were done similarly but with varying aspects, such as Holodomor.

Luckily there's a hidden Pandora's box. A mix between the psychological shadow and DMT.

Depends on how desperate people get to find a soul really. But the negative propaganda towards psychedelics worked wonders. I had to overcome a lot of pride in order to take that head long dive. What happened?

I started speaking how I felt, knowing why people did what they did. In the end, the value people have for me is either just a face in their movie or a sack of shit in their way.

I rate this planet 1/10. Without the digital age and the effects it's had, 9/10.. But that's a real fantasy land. FYI, DMT killed any ability I had to drown myself in video games. Actually, I did that on my own now that I'm thinking about it.

It was never going to be a collapsed but a crumbling.

Short answer no.

Longer answer, we are increasingly co-creating this world with love or fear energy. That is, the world is responding more sensitively to the energy we put out.

Stop putting out fear. Start putting out love. "Simple as that" if you can get to the spiritual base of having profound "self-love" that actually comes from trusting source/the Universe/the Goddess/Creator/"God"/"Jesus"/whatever you call the high power.

It's not "trust evil has the most free will" but trust good actually has much more immense power.

The end result of our current system

True freedom is spiritual freedom - Jesus is the way…

this happened long long ago

America is the ultimate Dog-Eat- Dog society

Ruthless-- unforgiving--predatory

and you spread your contamination to every corner of the globe

All the Rulers had to do was reward the most vicious in your society & the contamination spread like wildfire

Love thy Neighbour--turned to Beggar Thy Neighbour

You see yourselves as either Winners or Losers

You worship GOLD

You consider Poverty a crime

There's no shame in Poverty---only Poverty of Spirit

Which most of you showed with blind obedience to Govt rules during Lockdowns

That was the Covid Test--you were being tested for the Spirit of Resistance

They know you will only fight back when pushed too far

So they are testing our limits--seeing how much we can tolerate before push back

When they reach our limit of tolerance--they withdraw slightly--& you fall back from the fight & get lulled back into complacency until the next round

They will bribe you to assist them to subdue the rest--draw them back into the fold

The only answer is to reject their System outright

Walk Away & Stay Away

This is how I see the Great Reset panning out.

It's the frog in the slow boiling water method.

Kowloons everywhere ?

I think AI and the digital reality is going to make it so convenient to not be a human that you can’t resist

The future is here cunts

Boiling the frog looks like this to us:

"As nightfall does not come all at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there is a twilight when everything remains seemingly unchanged. And it is in such twilight that we all must be most aware of change in the air - however slight - lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness."

-Justice William O. Douglas

Nah fuck that. Refuse to comply, live your life, have your homies backs, and stockpile guns. Enough doomerism.

If you are over 35, that's probably your reality already, I know it's mine

Yeah, you can tell you're on to something based on the lack of upvotes you've gotten so far. We all know this is exactly what's going on.

One more reason for radical approach. If it comes to a point where people should start protesting, calling for a change, but they don't, then it's either that, or keep on living as slaves, even worse than slaves, I would say.

I mean, we've been seeing the progression for the worse for a few years already. Little by little we're losing our liberty and our wealth. I never doubted it was going to be in progression to avoid a rebellion.

Talking about technological distractions, this is why the WEF is so keen on the metaverse. They want us to live in the matrix.

Fear porn.

It is all well underway and (IMO) past the tipping point.

Depopulation (in slow motion via plummeting birthrates and promotion of reproduction free lifestyle), massive move towards urban collectivism and demobilization.

And nicely packaged up (at least here in the USA) as a red vs blue issue. It is far beyond that.

All of this is true, but they also need mega 'catalyzing' events to scare the sh*t out of people and make them beg for whatever it is they plan to implement. I suspect the next mega 'event' will be a series of cyber-attacks that will destabilize the internet for months on end and will make the masses beg for Digital ID and later CBDCs.

Can you imagine hundreds of millions of kids and adults worldwide unable to play their favorite video games or watch pornography? This would create more outrage than empty food shelves!

N. Korea/Kim Jong-Eun and 'right wing, neo-Nazi conspiracy theorists' would fit the bill PERFECTLY as the culprits for these series of attacks.

https://twitter.com/TimHinchliffe/status/1615857560879251458?s=20

It’s much more insidious than that honestly. Been in the works for decades. It’s really going to flip all at once, and then we’re all going to wonder how the f it happened.

1984 x brave new world x quantitative easing

This just looks like someone whose woken up from the “American dream”

This is the millennial’s manifesto.

Collapse coming be like the great depression with modern guns. Can see biological agents being used to control people

Woooagh were half way there

Future? How about right now!

Still not taking my guns

Yeah, alignes with agenda 2030. Slowly and when people notice too late.

Now, this is a good conspiracy post.

A part of me thinks that America was allowed to happen as a test, or almost a dare. The powerful were bored at the time and wanted a challenge, so set out to allow a rebellion and a free nation to start itself. They let freedom run in the blood for a couple generations and then started pulling the strings again, and the bet is how long it will take to reach serfdom again.

That has already happened.

Like what's happening now...

We’re already there, I’d say

So the plan was turning Americans into Chinese?

Only if you live in a city. Out here in the sticks we grow our own food, have our own animals. And will shoot any suits that try to take it.

If you thought he was talking about the future your not looking around buddy gg

They definitely play the long game.

The hacker who goes by the name of 4Chan strikes once again

Silly you, that guy is already talking about the present

We are literally already there right now

(April 24 2023)

Nah, it's already here.

It’s here sadly

It has started.

Sounds exactly like my life so far anyway.

The "Collapse" will occur as planned, as our debt-based economy cannot currently sustain itself indefinitely, as our faith-based currency devalues at rates growing exponentially, and our government knows it, which is why each year more and more of our rights are eroded, and crisis after crisis is created. The pattern started with Pearl Harbor, which was the architect of the model our government uses to push unpopular laws against the will the of the people.

9/11 was a second Pearl Harbor moment for the US, dragging us out of our isolationist mindsets -- its been objectively proven that our government was merely looking for reasons to get involved in the war but knew it couldn't convince the people that it was a good idea, so they allowed the attack at Pearl Harbor to happen, knowing well in advance that the Japanese were planning that attack.

Similarly it's been well documented that various departments of our government knew about the planned 9/11 attacks well before they occurred, but did nothing. All of a sudden we have the GWOT and the Patriot act, eroding our rights and freedoms with the promise of "security" from god knows what now.

Now we have the government wanting to further erode our freedoms and rights, wanting a Patriot Act for the digital age in the Restrict Act. They know that we don't want this, so they need to invent some big bad that they can use this act to protect us from it. It'll likely come in the form of a cyber attack on the US electric grid, the CISA and FBI have been warning about vulnerabilities in our infrastructure for years but the warnings have been conveniently buried in our media behind the various flavors of social and class warfare propaganda spewed by our politicians, and make no mistake, this isn't a Republican vs. Democrat fight, both sides are complicit and guilty in this. Our politicians are bought and paid for on both sides. They certainly don't care about me or you. They don't care who you vote for. They don't care about your gender identity or sexual preference. They don't care about the color of your skin, the content of your character, if you're a veteran or your religious preferences.

This act will pass, either in full in its current incarnation or in pieces as riders on unrelated bills. It's already been decided, now our government needs to either manufacture a villain for the Restrict Act to "prevent" or for one of our many enemies to strike.

America as we knew it is already dead, and our politicians are simply Weekend at Bernie's pretending to keep the corpse moving. The "Collapse" people fear is already occurring incrementally as OP showed , and people are now simply waking up to it. What we need to be afraid of is whatever the government cooks up to put people back to sleep.

That's been going on for the last several decades.

Homie just describing 2008

Feudal serfs were almost uniformly close their families, highly religious, community oriented, capable survivalists, strong, competent, capable, intelligent individuals...

tired of the grind, I've been worked thru the pandemic without a break :(

Damn. That sounds pretty accurate to what’s actually happening.

As some one who lives in a country that's minimum wage has stayed the same for like a decade yet everything is constantly inflating in price, it's kinda like duh.

Of course no1 on the higher end of capitalism cares as they get to keep more money, they just don't realise that they are completely insignificant to higher money.

...

Into the blue again, after the moneys gone…

I think true AI created by computers with biological components will inflict misery and may even be a "beast" from Revelation.

That's already happened.

And continues.

https://www.usmayors.org/ this has a lot of the plans written down. I think the ICC linked from there too-I didn’t realize that there was an international code council to ensure the same setup is across the board. The land use ones are how they’ll get property it seems-if you don’t update your home to the latest code (now the gas stove ban is explained) and it’s insanely detailed -your property will be deemed dilapidated and seized.

I notice wasn't able to visit my family to see them on Easter because I had to work that is the reality we are living in.

By the sounds of it, we already experienced the collapse

We are living the dystopian future

"When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptible struggle." - Edmund Burke 1770

We must form communities, creating a parallel society, to royaly fuck their plans. It can be done. It requires only the motivation to cooperate with your brothers and sisters in humanity.

I was terrified until the end when I read that it only applies to American men. Thank the gods

He's partially right. Many jobs will disappear and will be taken by robots or AI and you'll end up being dependant on the government to give you some sort of universal basic income, then you'll no longer be able to protest or have disident thinking because they'll take the credits from your card/chip. It's a brilliant executed perfect storm and freedom is the victim.

So basically the reality that we are already living in

Someone gets it.

More gold from this sub, I love it.

hah, seems like they haven't seen the debt, not just in the us but at a global level. Peak oil is here. Already we are seeing prices of some products triple, and this is just the start. They wanted covid to be continuous and deadly to allow for lockdowns and reduced demand, but it turned out to evolve less deadly than flu. Hyperinflation, collapse of the dollar, and energy scarcity around the corner.

There is no sink or swim. Instead the water is just shallow enough for your toes to touch.

So that means for the next 60 years of your miserable life you either learn to swim or oscillate between drowning and gasping for air.

That is worse than being dead.

There's a fellow by the name of John Michael Greer who has been predicting this for some time. He has two books on the subject, "Dark Age America" and "The Long Descent". His general thesis is that industrial civilization can only exist with access to highly abundant, easily recovered fossil fuels, and as our reserves of easily extracted fossil fuels dwindle we are looking at a slow descent, over the course of a few hundred years, into literally a return to agrarian feudalism with something like 90% of all present-day knowledge lost forever.

This has been already happening for the past ~70 years and is continuing to happen.

A couple hundred years ago a guy wrote a book describing this exactly this scenario and it's only, inevitable cure. The guy and book? Karl Marx - Das Capital

List a bunch obvious/current concerns and use them as "evidence" that supports your claim. Boom. People think you must be onto something! ...

I agree that there probably won't be a sudden collapse. But shifts in standards of living aren't a collapse, either... That's just how things have always gone. Shit changes...

Without sounding like a glowie fed, how far will things have to go before there is genuine civil unrest across a majority of the population?

I understand that the post is specifically asserting that there won't be a "happening". But do you think we're at a stage in our society where another charismatic (Trump-like) leader could convince a large enough portion of the country to "take back their country"?

Hypothetically speaking, of course.

Theres absolutely no way of telling.. this is mere an observation and estimated projection from this persons experience maybe... doesnt help hes correct but everyone else thinks theyre right.

And yet one side seems to be the most anti union and anti minimum wage

Don't lose hope. Bullets will still penetrate their skulls

Post from 10 years ago. Spot on. We here now

This is the present.

That is such a terrifying thought...

That’s not the future, it’s happening right now in front of our eyes.

It’s not the future. It’s the present

Yeah late stage capitalism is the worst

The collapse already happened decades ago. It happened when they set up a system of debt, endless work, and systemic inequality.

Now it has become just more efficient thanks to technology.

So many things on that list are just blatantly pushing consumerism. "Get new clothes! Have a bigger house!" Funny how much that person has sucked down the consumerism propaganda.

That's just late stage capitalism aka what's happening now. That's what all the politicians are trying so desperately to distract you from.

This is silly. The labor market is bananas right now. You can work less and make more. Businesses are so desperate to hire people, especially in the trades. Dental hygienist, electrician, plumber, nurse, et cetera…. We are more connected than ever. Life span is longer than ever. There’s millions of square miles of land and housing for sale. Sure some laws suck, but this is still the land of opportunity. Sorry for being so optimistic.

Doubtful bro. Community is everything and people are waking up faster than ever before. Love thy neighbor.

Props to this, a 4chan text posted in collapse that doesnt mention race at some point

This just sounds like getting old

Revelation says 1/4 of the world's population will be killed by war, famine, and pestilence/disease (real diseases from malnutrition, contaminated water, lack of medicines/antibiotics/hospital care, etc), but that the wealthy and powerful will do very well in the last days eating, drinking, marrying, and carrying on like everything is perfectly fine.

But the day and hour God removes his people out of harms way via the rapture, he will then commence his TERRIFYING 7 Trumpet and 7 Bowl Judgements on this wicked world and all the cowardly unbelievers.

Do an in-depth study of the 7 Trumpet and 7 Bowl Judgments + Armegeddon and you'll see just how decisive God's victory will be over this wicked world. Satan, his demons (the myriad 'gods' in other religions), and the wicked, cowardly, unbelieving people will be be utterly destroyed.

The collapse of the American empire and extreme capitalism does not signify the collapse of the world.

It’s the American dream that’s dead.

Jesus is coming soon. Repent and accept him as your Lord and Savior before it is too late.

This is the way of our Capitalism Overlords.

yes, but don't think there won't also be jolts and big moves to really shift the needle.

see JFK, 9/11, GFC 2008, Scamdemic.

Are we just saying 'nothing's next'? It hasn't worked like that before - there are excuses for why we have cameras and censorship and control, because of huge synchronised world 'events'.

Have ve vorgotten ze cyber attacks zat vill be far worse zan any pandemic?

Yep america is done. Hopefully not the whole world live in that shit country

Ok, but does anyone read Charles Olson? Let’s just be happy in not being happy, and never understand. Man should not have understanding when the stars are so big, and we are so small.

Fuck that shit, to quote a great movie:

"I don't have to tell you things are bad, everybody knows things are bad, it's a depression. Everybody's out of work or scared of losing their jobs, the dollar buys a nickles worth, banks are going bust, shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter, punks are running wild in the streets and there's nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do and there's no end to it."

"We know the air is unfit to breathe, our food is unfit to eat, so we sit while watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that today we had fifteen homicides and sixty three violent crimes as if that's the way things are supposed to be. We know things are bad, worse than bad they're crazy, it's as if everything everywhere is going crazy, so we don't go out anymore we sit in the house and slowly the world we're living in is getting smaller and all we say is please at least leave us alone in our living rooms, let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel belted radio and I won't say anything just leave us alone."

"Well I'm not going to leave you alone, I want you to get mad!

It’s called growing up and getting old

I think that people will rise up and dismantle the GOP long before this happens. Give Americans a little credit, they won't put up with failed federalist (fascist) politicians forever. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Capitalism.

The thing you have an issue with is capitalism.

The fear-mongering post you shared is talking about what happens when capitalism.

They're going to shrink our houses and apartments?

Disagree with every word pretty much

How does this play out for someone prepared? Living off their stockpiles quietly while the neighbors around them succumb to the tyrannical elite. What's the endgame for the prepared? Do you earn an elevated position in the new world order by being well fed and healthy?

What a joke 🖕🏻

If this scares you, you are weak

so the bible says all of this stuff at 2 Timothy 3. so this disaster has been written about for years.

I'll be somewhere else before this fully unfolds.

We could only be so lucky. I see Chinese labor camps in most of our futures.

Why does your account have no post history bub? Something to hide?

The American man? Glad I’m not an American man then

It’s scary because we are like decades into this already….9

Yeah well that's what happens when you based your entire political ideology around lies an Alzheimer's patient told your parents in the 1980s.

For the future debts.. buy bitcoin or another PoW currency.. im studying coding and these assets are more than a currency.. they are a network of real time security.. imagine that.. 4 Terahash/sec while https only resolve one.. and store in a file.. to easy to crack or hack

Not I

Isn't this how revolution starts?

Muricans need it more. They have never revolted against their ruling masters except the British. Not sure if it even counts.

Short answer? YES.

Money needs to be taken from the hands of government. Plain and simple. When you can steal the time of a population to fill the pockets of the elite, the result is what we are witnessing today. Time Theft. It is time to take back the money via a neutral commodity such as gold/bitcoin

If you choose to restrict your living and thinking to the confines of another's paradigm, of course you will never escape.

This is neither required nor inevitable.

What exactly do you think conservatives have been trying to conserve? Serfdom, monarchy, and oligarchy.

Or most likely we will be fine. Inflation happens. This ain’t the first time won’t be the last time. Life goes in cycles

Doom and gloom BS probably being propagated from outside the west to destroy our morale.

in america sure, not in most other western nations though. they are moving in the opposite direction. as for USA, this is literally just capitalism working as intended..keep electing republicans into power and this is where america is heading.

After the black bag days of the Communism in USSR this is exactly what happened. 99% were all equally poor with zero chance of making it anywhere, and they all knew it.

Bitcoin will save us all

Fuck off

[deleted]

I think we're here, lol

Idk I’m pretty happy and definitely have job security lol

But wait this already happened…

😔

Seems an extreme way to go about curbing that ego. Someone high on up is definitely following the age old adage "you better check your self before you wreck your self".

So basically a low income life in New Zealand now.

wake up everyday at 6am and work on yourself, you will be successful. You can make it happen in America.

"Jesse, what the f*ck are you talking about?" :D

No this is a post on 4chan

Will?

Or IS?

What website is that off of? Errowid? If I remember correctly?

That's the future we already experience under capitalism.

This is basically the premise of the book The Long Emergency

hey its not working workinghey its not working working

This is already the reality for many poor people across the globe.

The most important hour you will listen to today is here.

Asha Logos channel is a great inspiration for finding ways to steer ourselves away from the dangers ahead.

Thank you Reagan/Thatcher

hey its not working working

Welcome to the actual American dream... This has also been promoted overseas as a cultural imperialism.

Many are already there.

We’re watching it fall before our eyes surely..

The frog in the boiling water.

It's been the case for however long I've been alive. So it could honestly just be more and more of these things in the years to come. Will become very disgusting indeed.

TLdR inflation and progress.

Fuck em at the end of the day and thru it all…we see you now

Not in China though eh?

Blame yourselves.

So all that is absolutely happening yeah. Also though we still have the opportunity to change our individual lives. Not only is the world getting worse but you now believe it is getting worse and have accepted that fact.

Yet for the elite the world is actually getting better. Destruction of the middle class is accelerating because we're now given the choice of what to become.

What I would ask of you is not how do we stop the rich from taking over the world... Instead I would ask why do we see it happening and blame them?

Your life will shrink until you’re living in a hole like Diogenes and then you’ll awaken to your miller lite nature

We are already well on the way.

Future??????

Thats the global future for the western world, not just America. It's all about America for you americans, even in negative scenarios. But yeah, that looks like the future for most of us in a nutshell. Wonder what the plans are for 3rd world countries. Slavery in one form or another i presume

Lol. Man ppl sure love this type of world. The just project this type of energy in hopes it happens. Why, cause a lot of these ppl have nothing going on for them. And due to that they want to burn the world. They will say anything to try to get everyone on that same level.

The poem referenced if anyone is interested:

The Hollow Men

Mistah Kurtz-he dead A penny for the Old Guy

                    I

We are the hollow men
We are the stuffed men
Leaning together
Headpiece filled with straw. Alas!
Our dried voices, when
We whisper together
Are quiet and meaningless
As wind in dry grass
Or rats' feet over broken glass
In our dry cellar

Shape without form, shade without colour,
Paralysed force, gesture without motion;

Those who have crossed
With direct eyes, to death's other Kingdom
Remember us-if at all-not as lost
Violent souls, but only
As the hollow men
The stuffed men.


                          II

Eyes I dare not meet in dreams
In death's dream kingdom
These do not appear:
There, the eyes are
Sunlight on a broken column
There, is a tree swinging
And voices are
In the wind's singing
More distant and more solemn
Than a fading star.

Let me be no nearer
In death's dream kingdom
Let me also wear
Such deliberate disguises
Rat's coat, crowskin, crossed staves
In a field
Behaving as the wind behaves
No nearer-

Not that final meeting
In the twilight kingdom


                III

This is the dead land
This is cactus land
Here the stone images
Are raised, here they receive
The supplication of a dead man's hand
Under the twinkle of a fading star.

Is it like this
In death's other kingdom
Waking alone
At the hour when we are
Trembling with tenderness
Lips that would kiss
Form prayers to broken stone.


                  IV

The eyes are not here
There are no eyes here
In this valley of dying stars
In this hollow valley
This broken jaw of our lost kingdoms

In this last of meeting places
We grope together
And avoid speech
Gathered on this beach of the tumid river

Sightless, unless
The eyes reappear
As the perpetual star
Multifoliate rose
Of death's twilight kingdom
The hope only
Of empty men.


                        V
