It's not new. This has been part of "The Game" forever. There are no real rules to life and the people playing the game have been trying forever to get what they want.
There never was authentic protection or security. They just corralled the population into a lifestyle of consumerism while they did whatever they want. Each side entices the people, markets them, uses them as a product, and plays them out. It's all game.
I like immortal techniques line; "I laugh at America's fears of a new world order controlling the hemisphere, because my people have been living that for the past 500 years."
Same game different storyline. Some us didn't have life before trump so what's happening now is just the same old war on humanity. That's not downplaying the advancement.
We shouldn't have settled for what was, and we shouldn't settled for what's becoming.
A great documentary about manipulation of society is The Century of Self, and The Trap series by Adam Curtis. If you're interested you can see them on YT.
Basically western life has been a series of false hope used to persuade people to being tools for what more wealthy people want. The street works the same way. Looks at gangs, mafia, cartels... Scale that same ideology up and you have governments. Military paid for by tax, mafia hits paid for by dues. Nationalism and pride used for numbers of power, loyalty used in gangs for numbers of power. ...so if the problem which group is doing it? Or is the problem all groups that are doing it? They are powered by the same essence. People with an existential crisis trying to make the world for their perception but it never will. Ever.
