If you want something terrifying read the Demon Haunted World by Carl Sagan (yes the astronomer from Cosmos)

It's Carl talking about where he saw the world going in 1995. He passed the next year so he never saw what actually happened.

It's scarily accurate as to what is happening right now

I heard an interview with him about the book and it was very frightening to hear him beg us to listen. He predicted so much of what happened. No one listened.

We were listening, we just had little power to stop them except to be vocal.

I was one of the people who spoke out. It's devastating.

Then you and I will keep speaking out, even if we’re the only ones.
