What Happens When the Power Goes Out?

Case Study - New York City 1977

Why the 1977 Blackout Was One of New York’s Darkest Hours

The blackout that hit New York on this day, July 13, in 1977 was to many a metaphor for the gloom that had already settled on the city. An economic decline, coupled with rising crime rates and the panic-provoking (and paranoia-inducing) Son of Sam murders, had combined to make the late 1970s New York’s Dark Ages.

Then lightning struck, and the city went dark for real. By the time the power came back, 25 hours later, arsonists had set more than 1,000 fires and looters had ransacked 1,600 stores, per the New York Times.

Opportunistic thieves grabbed whatever they could get their hands on, from luxury cars to sink stoppers and clothespins, according to the New York Post. The sweltering streets became a battleground, where, per the Post, “even the looters were being mugged.”

The mayhem of 1977 came as a night-and-day contrast with New York’s previous citywide blackout, in 1965. The earlier outage affected far more people (25 million, spanning New York and seven other states, plus two Canadian provinces, compared to the 9 million people in New York and its northern suburbs who lost power in ’77, per TIME). Yet the effects were dramatically, devastatingly different. As TIME put it, the 1977 blackout left the city powerless in terms of electricity and also powerless to stop the people who seized the opportunity to riot. “They set hundreds of fires and looted thousands of stores,” the magazine noted, “illuminating in a perverse way twelve years of change in the character of the city, and perhaps of the country.”

One TIME editor remarked that the tenor of the blackout had more in common with the 1964 Harlem race riots than with the 1965 blackout, which had been generally seen as an example of the city’s resilience. Now it seemed as if New York had set itself to auto-destruct.

The blackout ultimately shone a spotlight on some of the city’s long-overlooked shortcomings, from glaring flaws in the power network to the much deeper-rooted issues of racial inequality and the suffering of the “American underclass,” as TIME dubbed it. Some saw the worsening circumstances — and institutional neglect — of this group of people as the key to the differences between the two New York blackouts. The ’77 blackout presented a rare opportunity for the powerless minority to suddenly seize power, TIME concluded, quoting the head of the National Urban League as saying, “[The underclass] in a crisis feels no compulsion to abide by the rules of the game because they find that the normal rules do not apply to them.” Source

An Act of Kindness from The Men Who Run the World

When civilization collapses because affordable energy is no longer available in sufficient quantities, the power will go out globally, permanently. Soon after there will be no police, no military, no government. You will be on your own.

The video of the mayhem that occurred when NYC lost power for a short period of time in 1977 depicts a situation nothing like what we are facing. There will be nobody to stop bad guys from murdering, raping, and eating you. Make no mistake, when the supermarkets are emptied permanently, Mr DNA, who lurks inside every human, will do whatever it takes to keep you alive, and if human flesh is all that is available, humans will be hunting humans, murdering them, raping them, and eating them.

The Men Who Run the World understand the horrific situation we are facing, and they are doing something to prevent it. I refer to this as The Ultimate Extinction Plan (UEP).

Why else do you think every country on the planet, every MSM outlet, every medical board, supports the Covid shots? Why is there absolutely zero opposition by any group that could effectively push back against this ‘sinister’ plan.

There is no push back because they understand that if they do nothing, The Gates of Hell will open wide. They understand that what they are doing is necessary to prevent far greater evils.

Say thank you Dr Fauci.

Say thank you Fast Eddy for purveying yet another truth.
