I agree that they have no plans post-global control. All their predictive modeling in books and movies has no "what happens after." Their stories simple end with the conquest. When I ask my normie friends--how can the heroes survive in the wilderness (of freedom) without any applicable skills? They simply stare at me. Or when I ask, how do they rebuild society after? Matching stares. Currently, "happily ever after" is no more than falling off a narrative cliff. It is clear they don't care about the "what then"? And sequels often are nothing more than sledge hammers used to beat in another nail on the same theme. Clearly, this is bad fiction but they believe it is very good propaganda. Asking some pointed questions, as Cliff does here, is well worth doing. And one day we might even start to get some responses. lol Happy Thanksgiving!

Interesting thought process! You took it from "Med Beds" to the "evil doers in a short journey. I am to the point where I seriously don't know what to believe any more. These are certainly interesting times though. It is almost like we have all jumped off a very high cliff and some are worried about hitting the ground, some are pissed at the people that pushed us, and a few of us are admiring the view from up here. Happy thanksgiving to all
