It's quite obvious that both the current administration and Shillary want to/are trying to use NATO to provoke Putin. It's basically the Cuban missile crisis, but in reverse. Look at the shit going down in Turkey. I wouldn't put out past them to start something with Russia just before the election to attempt to keep Trump out of office. That how hard they are pressing the "Trump is Russian traitor" meme with the e-mail scandal is something I find worrisome. It was covered by all the MSM outlets that way, which all point back to the DNC/BHO.
Honestly I'd rather be at war with ISIS than at war with Russia. The Russians have a much better track record in dealing with shitskin nuisances than we do. Not to mention they have experience, proximity, and resources. I'd say work with them, and cut a deal with Putin for some of that sweet ME oil. I think that's a much better compromise than literally having pissed off all of the rest of East Asia - which is what we are on track for right now.
If something did happen to ignite this giant powder-keg, the focus on the election would shift dramatically. We could end up in a WWII situation with elections postponed. The internet, our main source of raw information, would likely be partitioned in the event of a global scenario. In this situation things only get worse.
Social media shilling is one thing, but combined with isolation from real sources outside the "five eyes" we could be left with a shortage of real redpills, and instead a large influx of shillpills crafted to take advantage of the panic, FUD, ETC. With the FCC's new control over the Internet, combined with likely pre-existing military scenarios out there, it would not surprise me if we had a massive internet outage just before any happening.
There is a massive apparatus in place to keep information controlled already, the only thing preventing it from kicking into overdrive is social media and worldwide connectivity. Message interception and manipulation is possible on a mass scale. Outside of perhaps long-range HAM radio links, smoke signaling, trusted couriers, and so on very little raw information is likely to make it through. What does make it through will be prevented from spreading.
Stay woke, and look to multiple sources to verify any happenings. If you have trusted contacts outside of your country, learn to use PGP, exchange keys offline somehow if possible.
I just hope I'm so very wrong.
