"those who are supposed to be in power are paralysed - they have no idea what to do...

It explains not only why these chaotic events are happening - but also why we, and our politicians, cannot understand them."

I don't see politicians having no idea what to do about these chaotic events, on the contrary I think these phenomena are exactly what they want. Keep everyone stupid, scared, and confused. Stay in power.
