I don't! I don't wear a seatbelt! Because I don't want to!

What the hell am I supposed to do to prepare for a massively pessimistic future (Yngvi would say realistic) in which a system is put into place to like lock me down in my house indefinitely?

Live far, far away from the cities. But I get it, Europeans love your urban centers. The Russians gush over how they own country homes (dachas) only for weekends and the summer, and CHOOSE to spend most of their time in their city apartments because that's where all the previous infrastructure (schools, hospitals, doctor's offices...) is.
Beyond that, at least become an entrepreneur to get off the W2 plantation; I doubt the tax collectors care much about your off-the-books revenue until it reaches at least seven figures.
At what point does Rip's favorite rhetorical turn into "Why are you still [in this country]?". I think most of us Westerners need to define our cultural and socioeconomic red lines now or we risk being slow-boiled into indentured tax servitude. For me, no shit, it would have been my children being masked in order to attend schools my own tax servitude is paying for. There were states that did not require this, and that even have no state income taxes, right? Move there. Everyone's got a 401k that can be early withdrawn for initial costs, and most everyone that would even care about the slow-boil has a skillset that can be converted into entrepreneurship, so don't tell me it cannot be done.

For the constitutional scholars:
Can a Witch serve as the foreman for a grand jury? It seems that such a Witch with the ability to cast spells violates the jury of peers clause. It sure makes a difference in the Lord of Rings, Harry Potter, and other historical sagas.

If this had appeared on a bigger website, I would say that cracks in the wall are appearing: When I Covered Climate Change for Reuters I Thought CO2 Was Certainly to Blame for Rising Temperatures. I Was Wrong – The Daily Sceptic
Bump:Every scientist knows the world’s climate has been gradually and occasionally irregularly warming since the last Ice Age over about 10,000 years. Nobody denies the climate is changing. The ‘denier’ charge is nonsensical. But it performs the useful function of making clear the user knows nothing about climate science. The argument is about the ‘why’ not the ‘if’. Warmists say all the warming is because of man’s activity. The rest say some, a little or none.
Education is another area where balance has been replaced by hysteria-inducing propaganda. Children shown demonstrating on the news are often borderline hysterical. No doubt their teachers didn’t bother to tell them that man-made global warming is a theory not a proven fact, and that it’s okay to talk about different opinions.
My summary: Page not found - CO2 Coalition
Really, think about this: A 4.6 billion-year-old planet with an 8000-mile diameter, with a molten core (heat, etc.), with an atmosphere that is only 50 miles/240,000ft thick (being rather generous), that orbits a star only 93 million miles away with 330,000 times the earth's mass and that emits enough radiation to burn your naked ass in 30 minutes, is having its weather unalterably changed over the course of the next 5/10/15 years (whatever it is now) by the presence of a weak greenhouse gas, CO2, that happens to now be at its lowest level in damn near the entire history of the planet -- a history punctuated by global glaciations while that weak greenhouse gas was far higher than it is now -- and that also happens to be the basis of plant life (and therefore atmospheric oxygen), a gas whose greenhouse effect is dwarfed by that of water vapor (on a planet with a surface area that consists of 70% water), and that geologically is currently in an interglacial period. The models that generated this political bullshit have predicted nothing correctly -- not sea level change, polar ice cover, or weather.
And everybody believes it anyway, to the extent that they are handing the management of the world's economy to elderly megalomaniacs with an agenda based on their own personal power. You're not even allowed to question it -- otherwise sensible people have agreed with the ridiculous premise that CO2 is a deadly poison that must be eliminated from the surface of the earth. Every August, everybody runs around like it's not supposed to be hot. Every time there's a drought, everybody acts like it's the very first time it's been dry too long. "Hurricane season" started in June, and how many hurricanes have devastated the coastlines already inundated by the molten ice caps? How many times over the past 20 years of this shit have the hurricane predictions been correct?
Really, the children are in charge now, seeking validation for "caring about the planet," running around yelling about "carbon" -- the 4th most abundant element in the physical universe --being a deadly poison. Their managers are common criminals whose entire agenda is money and control, and we are letting it happen. It is the result of the shitty science education we received in the government schools, and it probably cannot be stopped.

You strength train. You are accustomed to adaptation.
You are ready to be ready.

Freedom of religion dude.
She can cast spells while others pray.
In other historical sagas, see "Elijah vs. Priests of Baal".

First of all, I am not Eastern European. Furthermore, lol.

My bad Jovan, I'm still a "dumb American"; I see a name with an -ov, -ic, -ovich, or whatever, and it's automatically an Eastern European one for me. I'm so stereotypical American that without looking it up first I still don't even know how Serbia isn't Eastern European
Europeans in general love their apartments for some reason and people living in multi-unit homes are easier to lockdown.
Do you actually even care about steps to take to avoid getting hurt by future lockdowns, or are you just patronizing people?
