Talk me down here. (putin, war, nazi truckers and cyber)

What if all these things coincide in the next 5 days?

State Dept people say that putin will launch a bloody campaign of bombing on Ukraine soon and have told Americans to get out in the next 24-48 and after that we cant come get you.

fox news is telling their flock of imbeciles that the trucker protest is a great thing to stick it to the libs for their vaccine mandates. I'm concerned that if putin wanted to weaponize a faction of people that would help him, truckers are the easiest to manipulate. Most of them spend countless hours on the road consuming talk radio, mainly rw but there are liberal and middle of the road truckers who are not brainwashed. These people will surround cities when trump gives the order (or when putin gives it through trump or fox).

Remember the past few years how all of our utilities have been dealing with eastern block hackers? What if they've left back doors in all the mainframes they infected and decide to trigger it to throw us into a shit storm and distract us from the war of soviet aggression?

I just hope that the American nazis don't side and become operators for putin.

The Cold War is about to become very hot, very soon I'm afraid.

Please tell me I'm overreacting and there's no chance of these things converging in the next few days.

Friend there is being warned middle of next week. They are going to get their pay advanced on Monday in case of cyber attack.

I'm just very glad that Biden and his team are pretty solid. I don't think they will do anything rashly.

This is all carefully orchestrated to create the maximum amount of chaos to benefit those who hate democracies worldwide. Sound like anyone you might know?

sources that likely got a few red neck truckers to go along with them, but most Canadian truckers are not in agreement with this so called protest and are vaccinated. I don't know what the US truckers are like. What they have done here is used some far right figures in Canada to organize some truckers and the rest are other vehicles with other rw and misinformed people. I have no doubt there is some Russian interference here, along with American RW.

I asked him if we are in a state of chaos yet. He said "not yet." I will check back with him in about a week.
