| "Abrupt Change Is Coming": Tucker Carlson Issues Dire Warning For America |
| 2023-10-28 |
| [ZERO] Carlson begins by laying out the significant disconnect between Washington DC and the average American citizen's struggles - particularly how skyrocketing food inflation and housing inaccessibility for the younger generation, is fermenting a dangerous brew of widespread public disenchantment. Thanks to political deecisions such as draining the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, the nation has been left vulnerable to deeper economic shocks. The public sentiment, particularly in rural areas, echoes this anticipation of a looming financial crisis, making the societal divide even more palpable. "If something really dramatic in your country happens, like young people can't get married, you know, or buy houses, or have any hope for a future that approaches the middle-class upbringing they had, then you've got a huge problem, and someone should be responding to that." "One thing Americans are not used to is being poor...but what if we ran out of money at the very same moment that American society is more fractured, our social fabric is in tatters, and we've let in millions upon millions of people who have no affinity for the United States," Carlson posited. "If your economy is like on the brink of collapse, you know, if your country is literally bankrupt, someone would say that, and if food inflation gets so crazy that people are actually complaining about it... it doesn't make me an expert on the people or anything, but I do live among people who aren't rich, and they're like legit upset about what groceries cost." SURVEILLANCE OVERREACH AND THE EROSION OF CIVIL LIBERTIES Drawing parallels with East German surveillance tactics, Carlson slammed the measures the state employs under the guise of national security. This overreach, he warned, erodes the personal freedoms of citizens, setting the stage to foment civil unrest and potential authoritarian control, under which genuine public grievances are suppressed rather than addressed. "When your country is at war, civil liberties disappear, and we saw this in the last 20-year war on terror, and I supported all that stuff, and I have egg on my face. I'm worse than that; I'm ashamed of the measures that I supported," Carlson said, adding that there are "angry people who feel like they have no recourse, who don't think elections are real... they have real grievances, legit grievances, and the only way to tone those grievances down is not by creating some East German surveillance state, which we have done, or throwing people in prison for loitering outside the capital, which is their house after all. That doesn't work long term." |

| #1 The East German didn’t have computers, databases or algorithms. We are subject to totalitarian surveillance beyond 1984 levels. |
