Elites do not appear to value any life, other than those close to them who are perhaps valued as conspirators, consorts, and progeny rather than beloved. The masses are only valuable when compliant and indentured to the program. So, it is possible that the cleansing may start to encroach much closer to home. Particularly if one expresses dissent. Look at the laws being passed in parliaments of the global north to prevent protest. Julian Assange is meant to be an example to all of us of the consequences of criticising power. Any form of protest may soon become illegal.
