It's not a lie that global industrial civilization is experiencing the end of abundance. We may not like the way they're going about it, but that part is true and inevitable. It's the consequence of centuries of exponential increase of population growth, resource extraction, and waste emission. An Age of Abundance can only take so much Drawdown before it ends. This is basic ecology.
That said, none of us like how the elites are doing this. Most of what they do and say are manipulative lies. DOn't believe anything they, or their minions say. That one bit, however, about the end of the age of abundance, is 100% true. It's an expression of an ecological and scientific truth.
So what have we run out of? Fossil fuels? No, there are plenty left to exploit which would last us for at least the next 50-100 years, by which time controlled nuclear fusion must surely be a reality. Uranium to power nuclear plants? No, many decades supply of that left still. Arable land? No, in fact the land that is under cultivation is shrinking as crop yields have been increasing. Plenty of grain, vegetables and animal protein to feed the world. Starvation in the Third World is largely a result of lack of technology and mismanagement by corrupt governments. The food crisis in developed countries is an engineered supply crisis, not a resource crisis. Ecological crisis? Where is the evidence for mass extinctions and the wholesale collapse of ecosystems? There isn't any. Wildlife is certainly under pressure and environmental pollution is a significant issue, but it's a fact that the more developed and wealthy a nation becomes, the less impact it exerts upon wildlife and the environment. An abundance of cheap energy and food allow a nation to become more diversely productive and economically independent, leading to higher standards of living overall and less impact on the environment; also a natural decline in birth rates. Left alone, the global population would eventually stabilise and adapt to the availability of resources.
But the socialists and neo-Malthusian meddlers are determined to sell us the myth of Peak Oil, Peak Land, Peak Water, Peak Food production etc., arguing that economic growth is unsustainable, uncontrollable, that free-market capitalism is a ravenous beast with an insatiable appetite which must be destroyed before it eats the Earth. History proves them wrong again and again. They see abundance as evil and therefore they seek to curtail it, artificially. But the real evil is making people poorer, hungrier, less healthy and more miserable by deliberately engineering shortages in order to 'save the planet' . They have invented a non-existent 'climate crisis' as the supposed raison d'etre for imposing their regressive socialist, eco-fascist agenda upon humanity. There is no climate crisis; there never was.
It's hard to see a way out of this situation. The globalist regimes have complete control of the armed forces (including police), mainstream propaganda media , food supplies and currency. Also, I'm very suspicious about the army of young immigrant men who are currently being billeted in hotels around the country. I think we may soon find ourselves under siege in our own homes. Please tell me I've got this all wrong.

I would so like to tell you that you've got it all wrong Stephen, but I fear you've basically got it right.
These people are criminals.
Agree. Eff them all. It is NOT TRUE.
