Huge ‘doomsday’ blast from sun this week could have killed Earth’s internet

A huge "doomsday" blast from the Sun this week could have knocked out Earth's internet.

A massive eruption of solar material, known as a coronal mass ejection or CME, was detected on Monday, March 13, at 3:36 a.m. UK time.

The potentially "catastrophic" CME has been compared to the Carrington Event, the most intense geomagnetic storm in recorded history, peaking from September 1 to 2, 1859.

That event knocked out the 'internet' of the time, with telegraph systems all over Europe and North America failing.

Would you be willing to fight and die for multiculturalism?  Would you put your life on the line for “Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity” (DIE); “Environmental, Social, and corporate Governance” (ESG); or other Marxist worldviews?  Would you go to war to preserve the right of delusional men to use women’s restrooms and dominate women’s sports?  Would you fight for any government that hunts down and imprisons J6 protesters as political hostages but celebrates Antifa and Black Lives Matter rioters who cause physical injury and property damage?

  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
I hear people talking about another Carrington level event, or the Yellowstone caldera blowing off, or a 9.0 or greater New Madrid earthquake, and it's not something that bothers me or makes me lose sleep.

If they happen it's game over, we will pretty much be starting over again like the pioneer days on the frontier. There are some things you can't prepare for.
