What Will 2023 Bring?

It's already started! It's only 9:55am NYE where I'm at, but five time zones have already entered 2023, with the sixth due in a few minutes.

It's going to be an eye popping, jaw dropping, crazy year! Strange to know this with such certainty when it is only 6 hours old.
I do not look forward to it. :/ Never have I ever been so resentful about a new year than now.

I predict that in 2023, it will become passe for men with male pattern baldness to shave their whole heads.

I would say the skinhead look has already jumped the shark. Just look at Andy Tate, and the way he wears his beard and sunglasses to try to compensate for his skinhead. It just doesn't work. This is just one example of 1000s.

The skinhead look is over.


Edit: untucked shirts will be out too!

As always I hope for more right wing leaders in Europe, but there are no big elections on the horizon. Hopefully some unexpected event in Europe could bring it about.

Most places - even Austria with its "compulsory vaccine" law have packed away all that rubbish so am at least optimistic that that won't come back.

I think Russia may expand its campaign to targets away from the conflict zone as the West is fighting very dirty with the blanket sanctions etc, now tracking down and harassing Russians resident in Europe.
European nationalists and anti-globalists need to see that they share more in common with the advocates of the multipolar world order. "Right-wing" in the 21st Century needs to be anti-imperialist, anti-colonialist and anti-war as well as pro-family, pro-tradition and anti-diversity. Orban and Meloni already figured this out by resisting the EU and remaining friendly with Russia. On the other hand, whatever respect Poland gained by resisting LGBTQ and open borders was lost by their exploitation of the Ukrainian War to feed their own interests as well as that of the Brussels bureaucrats.

The native peoples of Western Europe need to wake up on why their governments approve of racism and xenophobia against a fellow European nation (Russia), but they're not allowed to openly resist the invaders from cultures and societies that are incompatible with theirs.

Hopefully young men will realise that following Andrew Tate will only imperil their soul.
This is not about emulating his character and lifestyle, but rather about the clown world propaganda machine forcing red-pilled young men to take a side. What's the current "opposition" to him, feminists and soy boys idolizing Greta?

- High volatility in the energy market
- A revival of the Chinese stock market
- A drop in housing prices and owners getting nervous
- Southern European countries need to be saved economically by Northern Europe
- Shots fired on Eastern European ground (could be Moldova, Poland, Serbia, Kosovo)
- Worsening relations with Turkey and the EU, Russia will be able to hot open sea through Turkey
- Middle east will turn east
- Government won't give the real death data from the vaccines
- A general feeling of hopelessness in the West, people calling in sick, burnouts, no future (after years of dystopian priming)
- The rise of christianity, churches will be fuller, priests are surprised
- Ukraine won't be solved, will effectively continue the trench war they are in since 2014.
- A trend of disconnecting starts
- Any possessions will be uncertain, government will tax what they can and go after every dollar you have, whether it's stocks, money, houses or gold
- A few right wingers will be handled, car accident probably
- Jews will go all out, will see more locked up 90 year olds
- Will see more crack downs on dissidents like the German government did with the fake coup
- The US election build up, more people than ever will realize what a fake show it is, that there is no choice, it's just entertainment
- A rise in yellow-vest protests, people showing their unhappiness in all sorts of strikes
Putin will single-handedly stabilize the entire Middle East (excl. Israel) by making Russia play the role of the neutral mediator among Turkey, Syria, Saudi Arabia and Iran. Just imagine the ramifications of a pipeline and trade route running from Constantinople to the Iranian coast on the Indian Ocean.

Although I call nonsense on the Ukrainian War remaining inconclusive, Ukraine's manpower and food supply is steadily dwindling by the day thanks to the Russian meat-grinder strategy, there's no way the war will revert back to minimal border clashes from 2014, especially as the US already made it clear that they're pushing this proxy war all the way. Poland is pretending to be on Ukraine's side while actually waiting for the right timing to partition Ukraine with Russia.

I have nothing but doom and gloom for 2023. Consider yourselves fortunate if you can survive the next 12 months. My 2023 predictions:

- jobs, economy gets worse as Fed keeps raising rates, things will keep breaking until they pivot.
- more war (not just Russia-Ukraine but between the West and the East), covid resurgence
- AI tech becomes actually useful and popular for the average person

I also think that if you can survive 2023 then 2024 looks good.

When's your prediction on when the Fed "pivots"?

It really depends how you define "pivot". I think most people define it as decreasing/lowering interest rates so if you go by this then anytime between June and end of December 2023 depending on what and how much breaks. I would say that Fed has already pivoted because it lowered the rate of increase in interest rates from 0.75% to 0.5%. Naturally they will go down to a 0.25% increase and then pause further increases and then finally cut interest rates.

That was a largely a yawn. He does indicate that Iran is the one to keep an eye on, though. Interesting.

I am optimistic for 2023.

I think Oil and Gas will continue to do well domestically with high demand overseas for export due to the Russia Ukraine conflict, Republican house will be better, all be it imperfect, and more Biden lunacy will continue to shovel dirt on the lefts ken grave...

If you listen to Tom Luongo, what the fed is doing is to weaken European Central Banks and force capital out of Europe and into the US.... Which this appears to be occuring. So in the short term this is food for the USA.

NPCdom is sad. Not very befitting of an Image of God. Dignity comes from Agency. NPCdom is giving up Agency.
