Over the course of the coming years, society will be profoundly reshaped by the events we see transpiring before us as a result of the Corona outbreak. We are living in times historians will call a major turning point in history, the catalyst that will in ways we can scarcely imagine today, change not just society, politics, and the economies of the world, but will impact the cultural expression of future generations. In meme circles, this will be known as what ended the Great Clown Age.

It doesn’t take a philosopher, historian, or political scientist to grasp that as a result of medicine and other resource shortages that stemmed from the globalist redistribution of production that globalism on a political and economic level will be shunned and penalized. Nor is it a radical presumption that following Orwellian government overreach of power, no matter how justified the socialist-lite may call it, will cause Europeans to vote out their leftist governments in favor of Popularism, Nationalism, and Right Leaning political parties. Open Borders following lockdowns will no longer be a politically tolerable idea and the dissolution of the European Union will in part be credited to these events.

This, of course, is predicated on the idea that warm weather will end the Corona Virus pandemic. An idea that the infection of Tom Hanks and his wife in Australia during their summer should dispel entirely. Lockdowns will only be tolerated so long before revolutionary and resistance sentiments begin to emerge, so if the pandemic goes on long, events may take a bloody turn before they change.

Economically there will be a profound impact that the Independent in their Trump Derangement Syndrome fervor scarcely begin to understand it as they call for a doubling down of the same globalist policies that brought us to the brink. After the panic dies down and normalcy resumes there will be many who were economically impoverished by the lockdowns that they will begin calling unjust and uncalled for once it is politically tenable to do so. Blame will fall on those ruling especially as they struggle to implement solutions to the economic losses that are incurred. That of course means fault will be levied at globalists and leftists.

That’s in the wider world, but what about the entertainment industry that helps shape culture? It, too, is about to see a radical overhaul. Hollywood for years has peddled their agenda not on their own dime, but on the dime of investors who also have holdings in video game companies. Going forward these investors are going to frown upon any prospect that relies upon a globalist market in order to turn a profit.

Especially as theaters throughout Europe and Asia are closed during lockdowns and quarantines. Increasingly, reputations of companies will become a priority as expos remain shutdown or suspended. Afterward, it is all concluded their popularity will likely never be reestablished and these were the prime marketing conventions for these companies.

As international box office prospects die, companies like Disney who generate a significant portion of their revenue from their parks and cruises are going to take a massive blow. People aren’t even discussing nor realizing that the Corona Virus will not simply disappear from the world. Vaccine technology doesn’t eradicate viruses, just bolster immune systems responses or at least they do when not made in China with micro-contaminates, active cultures, and preservatives John Hopkins and the US’ former lead scientist have called dangerous. When the vaccines roll out people will still get the Corona Virus as it is highly contagious and if it becomes highly mutable, vaccine technology will be useless to impede its spread.

What this means from a practical standpoint is one day we’re going to hear of another cruise outbreak, another outbreak traced back to a theme park. Culturally until the Corona Virus panic dies this will effectively kill the cruise and park industry for the foreseeable future. When the lawsuits start flying as a result of another outbreak it will signal the beginning of the end of these industries as we know them. Companies like Disney who rely heavily on them are not going to fair well.

Those that think investors are not peeved at the massive delays in projects and releases are delusional. This bumps movie production risk high, which will result in a greater demand for larger returns from their investments. Increasingly there will be no tolerance for any company getting woke. Especially as nationalistic and populous sentiment rises throughout the world.

Inevitably many companies with a globalist market strategy are going to go bankrupt. There is no stopping this. Economically it was never a strategy that was going to survive in the long term as the growing economic stability issues would eventually cause a cascade effect that would have achieved the same ends Corona has done.

Then there is the culture shift that will be coming. Theaters for a while are not going to be popular, in fact we are probably going to see the rise of telepresent conferences and virtual reality gatherings. These changes will have economic ramifications on the industry that frankly at this juncture should be considered the speculative fancies of intellectuals more so than predictive or educated guesses. As it is entirely possible people will be in a hurry to return to as normal as possible.

What is certain is the growing work from home environments will have a profound impact on the video game and animation industry. It won’t be long before companies realize that a small centralized location with minimal costs and distributing the same hardware is cheaper than paying rent and utilities for large buildings.

Even if we don’t see companies entirely switch many will opt to continue the practice after it is no longer necessary. This means corporations will be less plagued by #metoo accusations, employees getting others to do their work, and political hawking by leftist activists masquerading as employees. When employees become more efficient as they no longer have to walk on eggshells, that is going to have a profound impact on companies’ decisions regarding how business will be conducted in the future.

Small-time developers have already been taking advantage of this model for years to great success and when major publishers get a taste of the profit-boosting overhead cutting effects they are unlikely to let it go.

There are other speculative effects this could have on the cultural expression of future generations who grew up being comfortable with telepresence and homeschooling. I know from experience that when you are aiming to just learn what is required from high school not get credits the time consumption goes from four years to months with dedication. We could speculate about the results-oriented society this could spawn and how that, in turn, will impact the consumption of entertainment that predicates what entertainment will be successful.

For example, as the mainstream industry relies on connections and conventions, their competition in #Comicsgate will continue to grow with their interaction based marketing. Content creators like Raging Golden Eagle with their own channels could become the norm in entertainment no longer the exception.

﻿

Regardless things are going to change. There is little stopping it at this point. The political ramifications will not occur in a void. When the blowback begins companies like the NBA and Blizzard who sold their souls to China will be impacted by the growing anti-Chinese sentiment. Make no mistake you aren’t going to watch lockdowns cost projected Trillions in economic losses and people not be sore about it. How and what will change will be seen, but after the pandemic, nothing will be the same.
