The sanity of HATO, created to secure Europe from USSR aggression that was clearly a danger to the states yet unconquered by the USSR in the aftermath of WWII, today a juggernaut persisting a generation after the dissolution of the USSR, isn't in question. There isn't any USSR anymore, so the persistence of a defensive alliance against it has no basis in reason. The very existence of HATO today is irrational, and it's every possible action can only further stray away from rational policies, and this is best exemplified by the rabid insistence of it's member states formerly arrayed against an enemy no longer in existence to wage war against whatever victim they can sight in their crosshairs - because that's what HATO must do to justify it's existence today.
Failing to use their capacity to wage war reveals every day to their civilian populations the fact that there is no USSR to defend against, and the vast fortune extracted from their wallets HATO greedily takes is wealth they have good reason to keep themselves. As a new generation of paypigs is fleeced in a collapsing civilization that creates existential reason for them to secure their fortunes with every means at their disposal, that fortune cannot long be swindled from them without real and compelling reason. HATO must shit or get off the pot.
So, shitting they are, and they will give Europe utterly compelling reason to feed their gaping, ravenous maw. The censorship of the historical facts of HATO engineering of the necessity of Russian self-defense and the demonization and atrocity propaganda creates the political support of populations uninformed of reality, knowing only what the warmongers profiteering from their chattelization tell them.
Canadian Prepper lays out the bleak future of the West as they are herded into the slaughter where their pathogological political masters reap a payday from their fat cattle. There is no way forward for the West from here but totalitarian tyranny. No tolerance can be granted to the truth, to freedom of action, to any shred of dissent, because the fabric of violent subjugation will be rent asunder as peoples faced with death in trenches will face better odds of living through revolution in their homelands, and their cruel tyrants - not Putin - are their deadly enemies.
This world will burn. It is well understood by firefighters that backfires are the only means of removing the fuel a rampaging wildfire will consume, and today this fuel can be consumed by individual households and small communities themselves, requiring no national movement or political power that is impossible to attain (by reason of censorship and deceptive propaganda), by seizing decentralized means of production that empower them to provide themselves necessities that are prevented them by the deliberate destruction of supply lines used to force them into compliance with centralized hierarchies. While food, power, and goods are necessary, the primary need people that are determined to be free in a tyranny have is security. When cadres come to strip the cupboards, salt the gardens, and torture them into compliance only being able to defend themselves will prevent their subjugation and destruction.
Modern technology provides massive improvements on ancient means of defending people and property from both traditional means of oppression, such as gangs of armed thugs, and modern anti-personnel weapons. It is not within the scope of this post to exhaustively detail such defenses from DEWs, sonic or other devices, nor the drone swarms and EMF devices that have been shown by the Houthis to be so effective in blockading shipping in the Red Sea, but if you cannot ascertain such information independently you cannot deploy it either.
You will merit your survival. NEETs will be cannon fodder, and the aged and infirm incapable of sustaining by folks scrambling for their own survival. What will come eventually are free and sovereign survivors competent to themselves attain their purposes, and a world in ashes stripped of resources. Faced with illimitable and plentiful resources throughout the solar system, and only scraps that can be foraged on Earth, a diaspora will ensue based on the competence people that have merited their survival will have attained to provide their means.
What you depend on is going to be your leash and collar. Be sure you can freely live by depending on people that depend on your freedom, and on no one and nothing that can profitably enslave you.
