NC has a sordid history with Democracy.

1898-White supremacists do not like newly elected representative, decide to have a massacre etc.

As the violence continued, Waddell led a group to the Republican mayor, Silas P. Wright. Waddell forced Wright, the board of aldermen, and the police chief to resign at gunpoint.[17] Waddel’s group included future U.S. Congressman John D. Bellamy and future NC Assemblyman George Rountree.[2] The mob installed a new city council that elected Waddell to take over as mayor by 4 p.m. that day.[28]

So many tv shows broken by two-part episodes!

Wow. What a load of crap

5 2024 predictions:

1. AI self-awareness and robot uprising
2. WW3
3. Global catastrophe
4. Alien contact
5. Asteroid colliding into Earth, but with new materials we’ve never seen which causes economic war.

My favorite bit is at the end where he says these are just predictions the future is uncertain.
