Ed Dowd: a prophecy of sorts
Remarkable predictions from May 2020, based on careful consideration of the evidence

Unlike many tweets and threads from the covid era, the above prophecy of sorts has aged well. But it requires no supernatural explanation. It is the result of someone making observations, thinking carefully and joining the dots.

His account has since been restored. At the time of writing this article, the thread featured above can be found here or by clicking on the individual pictures.
