orwellian hellscape:

Quote
“There will be no curiosity, no enjoyment of the process of life. All competing pleasures will be destroyed. But always— do not forget this, Winston— always there will be the intoxication of power, constantly increasing and constantly growing subtler. Always, at every moment, there will be the thrill of victory, the sensation of trampling on an enemy who is helpless.
If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face— forever. ”

a very, very extended family member was mildly caught up in this (their vehicle was carjacked by some narcos who apparently needed a way to get to someplace else).

The Country of Georgia most certainly avoided Maiden Coup 2.0 by repealing the NGO legislation . . . Russia immediately blamed, of course.  French born Georgian Pres most certainly got a talking to while she visits the United States.

Arab/Persian Spring Part (insert number here) Alert for Saudi Arabia and Iran.
