John Petersen, futurist and founder of The Arlington Institute, recently joined the “Health Ranger Report” with Mike Adams to talk about predictions and forecasts that could shape the next few years of global governance.
At the core of the discussion was a startling prediction by Martin Armstrong, known for his cyclical economic analysis model, Socrates. Armstrong forecasts that a global civil war could begin as early as 2025, driven by widespread dissatisfaction with government institutions.
According to Petersen, Armstrong’s prediction is based on a broad-based, planet-wide uprising of the people against government institutions. This shift in public opinion is characterized by a deep sense of betrayal from the governed, stemming from the perception that those in power have misused their authority and resources. This sentiment has already manifested in multiple examples around the world, including political upheavals in Germany, Canada, France and the United States.

The root of this discontent lies in the erosion of public trust. Events such as the handling of the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, economic mismanagement and perceived betrayal of public trust have eroded faith in government institutions. This erosion is exacerbated by emerging technologies and the increasing transparency that exposes previously hidden secrets and unethical behaviors by governments and corporations.
“It all hinges on betrayal, that there’s this notion that builds itself up into the populace that says, ‘The government, you guys, we trusted you. We gave you our money, gave everything and you betrayed us.’ And that’s the broad base,” Petersen said.
Petersen and Adams envision a transition scenario that pivots on the role of emerging technologies and the decentralization of knowledge. This is where projects like the Arlington Institute’s TransitionNet come into play. Transition Net aims to create a global collaboration platform designed to harness the collective intelligence of millions of contributors in building a new, emergent model of governance and societal structure.
