"If what we are undergoing is a 100+ year plot to subdue and transform humans into tightly-controlled socialist utopians run by corporations harvesting us for cash and data, welp, that plan is failing. The psychological warfare is failing. The culture cracking, carefully devised, is failing. The forcing of perverse sexual values is failing, the scam that is public education is failing, the scam that is the university is failing. The assault on our health via covid and vaccines has woken up a plurality. The WEF 15 minute cities scam is failing, the climate change scam is so stupid, cruel and obvious, anyone promoting it is viewed by the sensible as either corrupt or stupid and probably both.
"We are not lab animals. We are humans with souls and purpose and we are smarter than AI will ever be.
"The politicians we are supposed to admire are widely seen as disgusting. Look at the raddled faces of Biden or Clinton to see the result of indulging your worst impulses. We now all roundly loathe the CIA with its internationally linked security states and their trillion-dollar, military-grade propaganda aimed at reducing us to cowed, useless eaters. We see them as scum, which they are. The digital royalty are brutalist fascists with autism, so careless and “libertarian” with all their money and brains their city, the city that birthed them, is a sewer filled with crime and ruined people. That’s their final legacy, ruination. No one should ‘follow’ them anywhere."

Mishandling national defense information. Very serious.
There are three ways the outlook could play out.
1. The polls and analysts are largely accurate.
a. House: 233 D - 202 R; Senate: 52 D - 48 R
b. Recent polling errors have been greater in the presidential elections while midterms - on the whole - have been more accurate (Silver Bulletin). If largely accurate, Democrats would win a majority of similar size to the 2018 and 2006 midterms and gain a narrow Senate majority.
2. The polls and analysts underestimate Republicans by a normal polling error.
a. House: 221 D - 214 R; Senate: 51 R - 49 D
b. Some of the biggest polling errors this century occurred in reliably red states and districts that underestimate Republican support (The Economist). Given where the competitive races are located this year, another underestimation would be enough to keep Republicans in control of the Senate and to have Democratic House margins in the single digits.
3. The polls and analysts underestimate Democrats by a normal polling error.
