When I was a kid, Belgium where I am from, provided its own food for the whole population and had some left over to sell abroad. Then, about 50 years ago, industry took over, lots of good farm land were destroyed to place industrial plants on them, yes they made lots of jobs but they also destroyed the small farms and now Belgium heavily relies on foreign food. The land cannot be recuperated, just like land in India and other eastern countries, where farmers destroyed their lots with salty water to raise shrimp etc. But I think the only solution is to down scale things again. It is obvious that the dreams of gates and co are in fact nightmares, at lots of African tribes and groups have already loudly proclaimed. It destroys land, crops, families, tribes, lives.
Yes eschatological hours are upon we village people as the barbarians ride in to build pyramids of human heads or light cities as hecatombs and the 24/7 news cycle since Gulf War 1 breathlessly talks all about it
Don’t forget “ten percent for the Big Guy.” He is as compromised as his son, or perhaps more, given all his years in government and the requirements to stay in a power position. Likely the Dem party had no choice but to push him as their nominee due to the compromised positions of top Dem Party operatives. Either offer him or shit comes out about them. Or worse, imaging the scene in The Godfather with the horse head in the bed.

When you come right down to it the world is oligarchs and satraps and faceless bureaucrats for as Shelly has it "Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”
And the Statue of Liberty at the end of The Planet of the Apes.
And all the bones upon bones upon more bones scattered the world over. In the end all men shall be equal.

just heard Germany is giving 1000 anti tank weapons and 500 stinger anti aircraft weapons to Ukraine
its going to be a cold end to winter for the German people
