4th Turning - 80 Year Cycles
https://www.businessinsider.com/book...turning-2017-2
Its an interesting theory. The main stream in this article sure hates the idea and thinks its believers are kooks. 80 years from 2020: 1940 hmm war 80 years from 1940: 1860 hmm war 80 years from 1860: 1780 hmm war just ended So how do you prep for war? |

Civilians in war zones have historically never done very well. Additional preps simply make them a target for the military to come take their stuff.
Foreknowledge of the future and leaving the conflict area is the best bet. |

The cyclic nature of history is well known. This is one theory. I think a better one is outlined in Ages of Discord by Turchin http://peterturchin.com/ages-of-discord/ They are all pointing to the same thing thought. During the 2020s something fundamental is going to change in the world. |

This isn't one of those high fa-looting Mayan calendars is it. The only thing it was good for was wiping my butt with it.
Really ?. Join a cult and find out just how crazy we all are. I don't believe in fortune cookies also. |

Wars and rumors of wars...
When the end comes, all I want to know is who started it so I can punch them in the nuts until they pass out. And then I'll go to work on 'em. Sent using a long string and 2 used soup cans

The actual wars may be a distraction to the theory based on start and stop dates. For instance they noted the revolution "began" in 1773 with the boston tea party and didn't really end until after 1790 with the constitution suggesting the era of the articles of confederation was still one of great strife;
They noted that 10-15 years after the 5 year civil war was equally difficult for the people and that the world war era I and II had economic chaos in between for many countries (US included). What I find intriguing is the change in generations over these periods. We currently mock the millennials and call the next generation the "Zombies" and sadly there may be something too it as they lead us into the next 80 year conflict. You could well say that has already begun since 9/11. |

Meh.
If you stare at anything long enough, you start to see patterns, mostly imaginary. ps. The 80 year coincidental interval for WWI is the Texas War of independence 1835-1836.

All the Mayan calendars I have seen were carved out of stone . . . if you're wiping your but with it you're not only tougher than anyone I know, you also have horrible hygiene!

Personally I question anybody that takes any credence about the prediction of the end of the world and the prediction makers are dead already. I think they missed the point, not unlike yourself. Last edited by KevinB; 01-08-2019 at 8:11 AM.. |

Any truly random distribution will have patterns & trends. The problem is that they are useless in prediction because you never know when they're going to end & start a new trend.
Years back, a bunch of stock traders were shown a price sequence. Some gave bullish explanations. Others bearish. All recognized the pattern as familiar and readable. All were dismayed to learn that the sequence was simply generated by coin flips. |
