My ultimate nightmare

Let me confess to you this, my ultimate nightmare of future events. What do you think?

The world population, crowded up against its overburden and penalized by it beyond endurance, will seek a Leader to provide them with his Ultimate Solution. It is obvious that American Republicans are already in the process of doing so, willing to listen to any insanity, provided it fully fulfills their apocalyptic fantasies.

There will be no lies, just Peace on Earth in realtime (since all government functions will have collapsed into military anarchy in the meantime, à la Perestroika), and the future promise of a quick, clean death and relief from their nightmare world; or miraculous survival into a new Utopia of relieved of population pressure, endowed by the Leader's genius with an appealing political architecture and a miraculously restored natural environment.

And/or he will simply say: “I am the Anti-Christ foretold; obey/worship me and fulfill the prophecy to come.”

Using real-time, "Industrial Sound and Light" techniques, this Leader will orchestrate waves of high-tech genocide identical with those described in the Bible's Book of Revelation. Meteor/comet retrieval and bombardment, massive nuke strikes, biohazard dissemination and worldscan photoshop facsimiles (in the absence of survivors) where those prior are beyond technological capability. As far as he will be concerned, the closer to that mass-casualty narrative, the better.

The world population, rendered miserable by decreasing resources, wars over them and tyranny to support those wars, will practice a mass version of suicide-by-cop at the hands of a world government ruled by their beloved Leader. Individually, they will hope to survive this massive cull, (the way proletarian republicans hoped to become slave-holders or millionaires, despite the odds), and support it and its Leader fanatically. Only fanatical Christians will oppose them, non-violently, and be massacred for their pains. And we few, I hope, will resist this miserable travesty, goddamn it.

The World Leader will become insane (if not already so) by reason of the deaths and suffering he has caused beyond counting. He will seek to become God. Every genocide of the past will seem like child’s play, compared to his.

What will follow is beyond imagining. This Leader may summon all his SS troops (recruited, trained and uniformed from the billions of orphans he has caused) to Megiddo, and we shall see what transpires, assuming we are unlucky enough to survive to that point.

I am afraid this won't happen much later than the tail-end of our own lifespans. God help us.
