Default Your prediction for 2021

Do you have a crystal ball where you can see what we can expect of terrible things or perhaps happy things next year ?

Do you think we will get rid of this Corona or will it become a part of our life, like the flu ?

Do you think Biden will retire and give the steering wheel to his VP ?
Or
Do you think Trump will do something to stay in power ?

War!? Here is my hope there will not be any new war.

Here is something which is most certain.

In 2021 some famous person will leave us.
There will be earthquake, Political scandal somewhere in the world.

Trump will be out of office but nothing can shut him up.

Biden will begin to get heat from the radical lefties in his party to throw open the borders and make everything free. He (being controlled by the Dem Party) will stall and resist and the Dems will devolve into a tragic/farcical comedy. As usual.

There will be trouble in the South China Sea.

Germans will regret being dependent on Mother Russia for fuel.

Clint Eastwood... well, he is pretty old.

The Wuhan virus will continue to be a pandemic but by the end of the year, maybe, hopefully, begin to decline.

China and the US will have great new trade deals! All good again.

The media, not being allowed to criticize Biden, will continue to report everything Trumpo does and says, so they will have something to do and someone to rake over the coals, so I guess the first prediction goes to hell.

In the words of David Engels (from "Renovatio Europae"): "Mass immigration, decline in values, gender mainstreaming, radicalization, parallel societies, party cartels, social polarization and mountains of debt. Not to forget the creeping dissolution of national states and the expropriation of savers that has been going on for a decade."

I hope for some occasional cosmetic nicenesses, from time to time, at best, but the general trends are based on inner and deep rooting dynamics that know only the direction formed by the greater scheme of what afterwards will get called "history". Its impossible to be optimistic anymore. To have the power and class and greatness to stick to one's principles and that of the occidental culture while the world we knew around us collapses, hoping to be recalled by other, later generations who will not live before we who are alive today have long since passed, must suffice. More is not in it for us anymore. Rome is on fire. We live in the time of the Western cultures Götterdämmerung. No use to run anymore, there is no refuge for us anymore.
Composure is the only thing that makes what lies ahead of us bearable. Composure, and the unbreakable determination to not give an inch on what is right and separates it from the wrong. We will get overhwhelmed, we cannot win this fight anymore, the battle is lost, the war as well.

A part of me feels that the Covid pandemic is just a swan's song describing what more and more of us have somehow felt deep inside of us already before: that what we call the normality of the pre-pandemic time was no longer sustainable anyway, and will not come back, like a house that burnt down will not still stand there when the smoke screen has been blown away by the wind. I very strongly feel so. And honestly said, it can feel like a relief. Because the deformations in the culture and civilization we have created in the past years and decades in the West, to me more and more felt unbearable and untolerable, rotten and poisonous like a cancer that had already overwhelmed the body.

Will be interesting to see if Turkey starts sabre rattling over the EastMed pipeline again once it gets started.

I think we may see the heat turned up against China for this COVID debacle. I dont know what, but it should be fun to watch.

The truth will finally be revealed to the world that it was I Rockstar the magnificent who won the 2020 Whac-a-Squirrel competition and all conspirators that plotted against me will be forced to homage to my greatness.

Trump will give up politics and become a late night TV host where he can continue to ridicule everyone, or maybe become a stand up comedian and ridicule everyone.

Kim Jong-un will die and be resurrected again.

On a serious note:

Sir Frank Williams with pass away.

My prediction: more of the same ... unfortunately.


But we'll make it through. Well - most of us, anyway.

The United Kingdom will start to prosper now she is unshackled from the EU

Macron will not be re-elected.

The western world will exact a price of sorts through trade against the Chinese for Covid

Mediocrity. With everyone screaming their chests off that it's unprecedented.

Life will return back to pre covid days, after we've all been injected with this mind suppressing vaccine by the illuminati and its leader Bill Gates.

The UK's rich and powerful will have more money and power while the plebeians will get more of nothing.

Michael Parkinson will kick the bucket.
The Duke of Kent will bite the dust and Dick Van Dyke will never perv over Mary Poppins again.

Charon the ferryman is going to be busy this year.

I'm washed up as a prophet if Trump doesn't reverse course and win by a miracle, which it was always destined to be anyway.

This prophecy that I spoke in 2018 that Trump would win and then give the White House up to VP Mike Pence sure is taking it's
time so I will refrain from guessing about 2021.

However I still believe two 18 year old twin girls will move in next door and invite me over for their birthday party asking me if I mind if they sunbathe in the nude in the backyard and as I shyly invite them to come over and use my pool.

Awe yes another miracle in the progressive scheme of things

My prediction is that if you don't take pictures of the twins, you will be banished to a non-submarine forum.
