When we reviewed the most popular Zero Hedge posts of 2014, we weren’t entirely surprised to learn that civil unrest was one of the themes readers were most interested in discussing.
Indeed, polite society seems to be breaking down all over the world and in 2015, we got what certainly looks like evidence that anarchy beckons – even in the US, the supposed bastion of modernity and human “advancement”.
There were, for instance, the riots that reduced parts of Baltimore to smoldering ash in April…
In August, an apparently disgruntled news anchor murdered his former colleagues on live television.
That came on the heels of a horrific shooting at an African American church in Charleston perpetrated by a rather angry 17-year-old.
Since then, things have only gotten worse. In fact, the US has seen three mass shootings in the last week alone.
And the trend towards societal disintegration is a global phenomenon. The Paris attacks underscore the extent to which the chaos and outright depravity that characterizes everyday life in the Mid-East has spilled over into Western Europe. That spillover has in turn triggered feelings of intense nationalism in Germany, Sweden, Finland, and Norway (among other countries) where far-right political movements look set to invoke Europe’s troubled past.
On Monday, we got what might well be the surest sign yet that society is rapidly descending into a Hobbesian state of nature. In Moscow, a woman dressed in all black was arrested near a metro station screaming “I am a terrorist.” She also shouted the following:
“The end of the world is coming in a second…I’m your death. I hate democracy. I’m a terrorist.”
“I have been cursed and destroyed so many times.”
“I’m your suicide bomber… I’m going to die in a second…The end of the world.”
But believe it or not, that’s not the most disturbing part of this story. The woman, as you can see in the video below, was holding the severed head of a child.
An investigation revelaed the woman was a citizen of a “Central Asian country.” She apparently burned down the apartment where she was supposed to be caring for the child who was “three or four.” The child’s headless body was found in the charred remains of the building. The woman was identified as Gulchekhra Bobokulova from Uzbekistan. She beheaded the child, she said, because of her husband’s “betrayal.”
It wasn’t immediately clear what the connection was between the dead toddler and her alleged husband.
Meanwhile, in China, 45-year-old Li Sijun decided to stab 10 schoolchildren this morning for apparently no reason at all. As CNN reports, “the incident took place in Haikou, the capital city of the southern island province of Hainan.” Thankfully, all of the children survived. Li didn’t. He killed himself.
Finally, rounding out Monday’s news from our increasingly anarchic world, a woman strolling through Highbridge Park near 190th Street in New York found a box. With a “cooked horse head in it.”
“Cops,” The New York Post says, “are looking into whether the animal parts are tied to ‘voodoo.'”
So, a woman decapitates a toddler and displays the head while shouting about the end of the world, a man stabs ten schoolchildren for no reason, and a woman finds a baked horse’s head with possible ties to “voodoo” in Manhattan.
And that’s just in the past 24 hours.
If you have the means, it might be a good time to invest in a doomsday bunker…
This isn’t my world. I’m just a visitor here.
Be armed or be harmed.
Train, train, then train some more. If you can’t afford live training, use Youtube vids.
Violence is normal, chaos and murder are normal. Most of human history is replete with such. When you enter a room, any room, imagine how you would kill each person in that room (except family of course).
When in doubt, especially where the security of your family is concerned, kill everyone.

Macedonia Today

He neglected to mention the guy in India who slit the throats of 14 of his family members with a butcher’s knife before hanging himself.
Sadly, governments around the world HAVE to react to these events by becoming more and more harsh.
When riots get out of control or there are numerous riots simultaneously, it will become necessary to shoot the swarms, much like in the Walking Dead series. And aren’t the swarms in places like Baltimore and Ferguson similar to the zombies? They are mindless and attack everything that moves.
Let it rain. It pays to have friends. Here are just two of mine that I’ve been honored to have for 30+ years.
I like to call them Starsky & Hutch.

All those harmless widows and orphans breaking down the barrier to Macedonia. They are all Syrians and Iraqis and all appear to be of fighting age. Too gutless to fight in their own countries. Refugees my ass. These are migrants looking to overtake Europe and turn it in to a shithole like the one they left behind. Most refugees from war torn areas are not this violent.

Human depravity and Sin are two biblical doctrines you can verify 24/7 just by watching the news but many still refuse to believe what is right before their eyes.
If you believe the bible you know it’s going to get much worse. Stay alert , stay alive or maintain what is known as situation awareness at all times.
There are over 7 billion people living on the planet and you act surprised at a few (admittedly) sick stories. Are we now to believe that 3 heinous acts committed in a day in a world populated by 7 billion people is a shock? With a population that size there are bound to be several shocking stories like this most every day. The world hasn’t changed or gotten any more violent. The only things that have changed are the speed of news dissemination, thanks to the internet and the hyped-up importance placed on it by a ratings-hungry media. 20 years ago who cared about a stabbing in a Chinese school? Who would have even reported on it? Likewise, with horsehead in a box. Sick, yes, but big freakin’ deal.
Actions that used to be explained by insanity are now postured as new apocalyptic trends. It’s all hype.
Get a life.
Jagger,
It’s all hype until it happens to you. Until then, enjoy your life.

A; those other examples I can see as depraved, but what else are you supposed to do with a dead horse’s head?
It’s not like we haven’t all done that at one time or another.
Needless to say…
It’s heading our way..
Westcoaster, I can’t figure out if that was an innocent comment or a really bad pun.
Old sign over the editor’s desk: “If it bleeds, it leads.”

I have to agree with Jagger that there is apocalyptic hype but, certainly, as decades have passed it would seem the world is in a downward spiral. If you love doom porn, you should check out:
It looks like 11b x 1371 and 11b 3 1369 are probably an art project. Maybe part 3 will fill in the blanks; I think Parker Wright may release it this week. “Terrorists” with release dates…what a world we live in!
If this article is Tyler Durden’s own writing and not quotes from mainstream news sources, it’s a little disturbing to see him repeating memes from the mainstream media, along with the misuse of the word”anarchic”. He uses anarchic in place of chaotic, which is the more accurate term.
I don’t know much about Tyler Durden anyway, but this article is off-putting for its presentation of dubious media reporting as fact.
