I'm expecting we're going to get one a month with late October/early November giving us one a week.

I'll be a bit surprised if we aren't some kind of conflagration situation by then.
This is going to be some peak Boomer - Social Media shit show kind of shit.

Kinda funny because America has everything it needs to be just fine, but society has been taught otherwise.

The Cold War really fucked us up.

By the context of what October Surprise means, I would say real things that would actually sway a solid percentage of undecided or perhaps even flip enough people to vote for the other side. In that case, conspiracies that just make a pre-existing supporter go "Yep, that's why I ain't votin' for Biden/Trump" would not count as an October Surprise.
