There’s speculation here about the nature of the attack... EMP? Aliens? Cyber?
My analysis is that it came in three parts, but the culprit is not 100% clear.
However, it came in three waves:
1) Cyber attack, affecting planes, ships, newer autos, grids - but not everywhere.
2) Disinformation triggering societal distrust, especially among Muslims and Asians. In desperate, scared times, they’d be the first shot with questions asked later (or never). Easy to identify, easier to hate.
3) Nuclear/radiological attack in major cities with sonic or microwave weaponry.
In this fictional scenario, who would be most likely to launch this unconventional warfare, causing internal division and destruction from within - and against Asians and, presumably, Asian/Middle Eastern Muslims?
Is there a predictive programming message being sent or is it just good, old fashioned fun?
How about the random supernatural stuff they tossed in sometimes?
Like the animals, or the little girl?
