It's 2029. They thought we'd be down by now having done the unthinkable to all of humanity. They took my house, my tiny one acre farm, and took all my animals to slaughter. So many others too. So many who didn't make it. Peace be with them. Some people just couldn't cope with all the loss and they ate the "magic bullet" as everyone began to call it. The NWO brought death and a miserable existence to the living which --to this day-- are barely holding on by their fingertips. The CBDC and Digital IDs are the law of the land. To make matters critically worse, they came for the metals and the guns. All the metals and all the guns. In the midst of all that horror, we had to hide in the hills. Different sized communities had to talk with CB radios or coded messages through FRS (friendly resistance satellites) or walkie talkies. So we bartered and traded. Learned the art of survival through hard lessons as we grew our own food. And fell in love. They took everything away from us but they didn't succeed in repressing the one feeling a human being can have that will inspire millions to resist and survive and that, was a serious miscalculation.
