JD your story made me think of the following with a little help from ai.

The phrase “I’m from the government, and I’m here to help” is most famously associated with Ronald Reagan.

He used it in a 1986 radio address where he said:

“The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: ‘I’m from the government, and I’m here to help.’”

What it means

Reagan was making a broader point about skepticism toward government overreach—arguing that government intervention can sometimes make problems worse rather than better.

Living near the arctic circle, it does not matter to Me. If We just let the clocks be that would be one less thing the governments of this world could mess with.

Still love a comment by an indigenous tribal teacher to my son, "Only a white man can cut one foot off of one end of a blanket, sew it to the other end and then brag to the world about his bigger blanket"

Western confusion by design to make everybody and everywhere feel uneasy, young & old ...

Muslim countries are synchronized by prayers five times a day, just following the path of the central star without any governmental or institutional fake/artificial intervention. Just easy peasy ...
