Has there ever really been any plan in the Script other than can-kicking until Something Big?

One thing "elites" always have in common is risk aversion, and what they've been doing so far has worked, for them at least. What we're seeing is just brake-tapping, not preparing for a u-turn.

I agree. Trying to manage systemic collapse [the Clown World extreme] seems superficially different, but they’re trying to leverage old tools and rhetorics so your point stands.

The AI side is potentially interesting. It’s a paradigm shift though and external to specific scripts. Possibly something big. Unless nothing works anymore.

"Why would they lie!?" Is the screed of FTS2...

For the rest of us, it is just seeing what the message is, and does any material result come from it.

Assume its fiction. It really helps.
