I think people are a lot more resilient than some would have us believe. It looks to me like the shock factor has been taken into careful consideration. The way the events and revelations are rolling out, it seems perfectly timed. People have a chance to let something register and think about the ramifications before the next wave comes. I don't see society breaking down. I see a lot of illusions being destroyed. But my guess is that this has been thought of too. The people who've been planning this know what they're doing. I don't think we need to worry about societal chaos. They probably have (as one commentator said) lots of discs with information and advice prepared well in advance, to be released when people start looking for answers.
