Predictions for the immediate future of the United States:

1. Gun control will be amped up to the point where owning a gun will be virtually unbearable. A disarmed population is ripe for oppression. I expect a few mass shootings to grease the wheels of this particular process.

2. The dithering over Syria will come to an end, and regime change will happen, see Libya, Iraq, etc.

3. A grave conflict with Iran will become closer to a reality.

4. The brainwashing and indoctrination by the Western entertainment complex will accelerate through the roof. History (or at least its perception in the eyes of the masses who glean their opinions and ideas from the television and its online subsidiaries) will be actively rewritten, not so much for those of us who remember things the way they were, but so that the sponge-like minds of the young upcoming generations won't have any alternative frame of reference.

5. Social demoralisation channelled through causes such as LGBTP and associated intersectional ideologies will be pushed even further.

Trump was a fake hero. He was designed to sow further division. He now has his reward for playing the role for which he was picked. If he was truly the outsider maverick posing a threat to "the system" that the media was screaming he was, he'd have been taken out by a so-called mentally ill loner (i.e. CIA). 

If there's any doubt as to what's going on, we are heading for a global communist state. It is happening before our eyes. Our conscience is screaming that so much is wrong, but we're waiting for someone else to say it and take the first step.

Just a coincidence.

Seems small scale in the grand scheme of things? Perhaps. But it's also another in a long list of recent signs that shows that "they" aren't concerned with concealing their crimes with as much water-tightness as previous times.

They're getting brazen and bold, and that poses a few worrying questions. As always I relate these wider issues back to our situation as Sikhs. Imagine what they could do to an average Joe in our community who upsets the "wrong" person in the Indian establishment with claims of wrongdoing and crimes.

COVID-19: Labour demands emergency law to stamp out anti-vax content on social media
The government insists it has secured a major commitment from Facebook, Twitter and Google to tackle anti-vax disinformation.

Anti-vaccination content should be "stamped-out" on social media, Labour has said.

With hopes rising of a COVID-19 jab being rolled out by the end of the year, the opposition has called for emergency legislation to "stamp out dangerous anti-vax content".

The party wants the government to bring forward legislation that would include financial and criminal penalties for companies that fail to act against such content.

Labour has claimed dedicated anti-vaccination groups with, hundreds of thousands of members on social media, are "churning out disinformation" on the issue.

Shadow culture secretary Jo Stevens and shadow health secretary Jonathan Ashworth have written to Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden insisting that the "spread of disinformation online presents a real and present danger" to vaccination efforts.

Ms Stevens said: "The government has a pitiful track record on taking action against online platforms that are facilitating the spread of disinformation.

"It has been clear for years that this is a widespread and growing problem and the government knows, because Labour has been warning them for some time, that it poses a real threat to the take up of the vaccine.

"This is literally a matter of life and death and anyone who is dissuaded from being vaccinated because of this is one person too many."

Labour insisted that government involvement with social media platforms, aimed at anti-vaccination content, did not go far enough.

The two shadow cabinet ministers said in their letter to the culture secretary: "What we need is action now and - since these companies have been unable to take action themselves - we are calling on the government to introduce emergency legislation which would include financial and criminal penalties for continued failure to act.

Prof Van-Tam says he would take COVID vaccine
"Labour would give the government the votes it needs to get such a bill through the House of Commons."

A government spokesperson said: "Letting vaccine disinformation spread unchecked could cost British lives.

"We take this issue extremely seriously and have secured a major commitment from Facebook, Twitter and Google to tackle it by not profiting from such material, and by responding to flagged content more swiftly."

Woman guilty of fake cancer GoFundMe fundraising fraud

A woman who faked a cancer diagnosis to claim more than £45,000 in donations has been convicted of fraud. 

Nicole Elkabbas, 42, set up an online fundraising campaign, claiming she needed money to pay for private treatment for ovarian cancer. 

But police began an investigation after a doctor, who had recently given her the all-clear, raised suspicions. 

Elkabbas, of Broadstairs, Kent, pleaded not guilty and told Canterbury Crown Court she had believed she had cancer. 

Judge Mark Weekes said Elkabbas had been convicted on "clear and compelling evidence" and should expect a custodial sentence.

Ben Irwin, prosecuting, earlier told the court Elkabbas's actions had been "utterly dishonest". 

In February 2017, she set up a GoFundMe campaign, which said she had just weeks to raise money for a major surgery in Spain. 

She claimed a costly "breakthrough drug" could improve her chances, and included an image of her lying in a hospital bed.

'Staged' photo

However, the court heard the image had actually been taken during routine gallbladder treatment several months earlier. 

Mr Irwin said the "obvious lie" was built around the photo, which had been "staged to convince people that she was seriously unwell".

After she "tricked" people into donating, she "frittered" the money on foreign travel, football tickets and online gambling, Mr Irwin said. 

She will be sentenced on 5 February for one count of fraud by false representation and another of possessing criminal property. 

GoFundMe said all donations made to Elkabbas through the site were refunded last year after misuse allegations were raised.

This one could've easily gone in the Laughter thread, but the social angle makes it relevant here.
