Yes the US is an asylum

Looney bin............I rest my case

I haven't really been following the full-on American Drama or whatever they call it these days, but you can bet they are ignoring the real problems that caused an attack on their power base and lashing out elsewhere.

Yes I knew it was leg pull, but it did touch on a serious subject, which I thought was worth pursuing.
The speed with which New Orleans turned into Mogadishu was truly stunning and the Biden himself has been warning about the wave of lawlessness sweeping through US cities in the wake of BLM and the defunding hysteria. In case you missed it, he did in fact effectively threaten "Insurrectionists" with F22's and Nukes.

Well I thought the  would have shown you I was just pulling your leg.
Anyway under stress any society will have parts that quickly break down,the siege of Leningrad where there was cannibalism and Germany where many looked on and turned a blind eye to the barbarism enacted in their face.

There are no countries where there is this element that would behave like that,whilst I think the US is a looney bin that is a generalisation,there are of course many good people there.

Well no doubt, that is exactly what a real Cyber War attack would look like.
All that does though is switch off the lights, how people react once the lights are off is no-ones fault other than that countries itself.
A good country that genuinely believes in itself will see most people pulling together and making sure everybody gets through.
A bad country just grabs the opportunity to throw the veneer of civilisation out of the window and revert to barbarism.
We already know from partial experience which of these to expect in the US. Probably true enough in the UK to in many parts.

Almost forgot,is that because the Chinese or Russians have mounted another cyber attack and closed down the power?

Well maybe, a lot of parents saw what happened when Katrina hit New Orleans and what is happening in cities throughout the US in the wake of BLM and have been able to join the dots as to what will happen if the lights go out one night nationwide....

Indeed Cromwell, but didn't Trumpy get called every idiot under the sun for doing the same thing?

I guess public schools can be a Harrowing experience — but they've prepared a number of PMs, both good and bad...
