Select a weak leader as a vessel for our interest. Surround your candidate with some cultish ideology, present them as the chosen one. Continously repeat this frame through every institution you own. Become unimpeachable by the threat of a civil war. Do whatever you want.

We warned scientists not to squander people’s trust. Investigate the lab leak Don’t overclaim for vaccines Don’t demand lockdowns Don’t worship models Don’t be dogmatic Encourage debate They have only themselves to blame.

The collapse of trust in science is going to go down in history as one of the most sad, bizarre, and destructive social contagions of modern times. We fed billions, cured diseases and powered nations - yet people ran toward conspiracies instead.

Scarcity = Entropy + Expectations Thus, 3 essentials: - Management of aggregate scarcity: redistribution, suppression - Management of entropy: Technology, forced labour - Management of expectations: Control over narratives, theology

I wonder if people are aware that the OPEC oil embargo of 1973 lasted six months. Yet the inflationary effects of that six month embargo were felt for the rest of the decade.

We’ll see. But remember for Iran winning is surviving. For the US, stakes are higher. Because if over the coming weeks we discover the Regime still exists, then what strategic win is that?Geopolitics is a long game - not a sprint. The US is currently sprint-only focused force

Soldiers are not willing Russians. They are cynical business partners in a mafia style business deal. Russia is not a country of patriots but a land of populous detached from politics and true common identity. This is why they don’t cry for their soldiers, and they don’t complain when Putin gives away their land to China. Literary and otherwise. Dugin explained this: they need this war to become a nation. They need a tragic sacrifice. This a will of a slave. Still can be brutal, but let us not compare it with the will we need to counter them.

Brainwashed western people treat democracy as a goal. But to the western elites democracy is a means to govern, to control, to rule. Difference between means and goal.

Davos Day 1 So far the divergence from past meetings is fascinating 1. Larry Fink admitted that the amount of power needed for data centers can't be derived from intermittent solar and wind and they need steady baseload power because they can't be turned on and off (LOL ...I may have mentioned this once or twice in the past...just on energy in general) 2. They changed the wording from "stakeholders" back to "shareholders" 3. They exchanged "climate change" with "weather change"

Agree. I think prosperity comes first and then identity has to follow to secure the prosperity No nation can survive without its basic needs covered: No survival, no national myth No economic zone can survive without identity: No identity, no stability in hardship

Identity > Prosperity: - idealism - easily manipulated through identity propaganda - necessity for national myth Prosperity > Identity: - opportunism - easily manipulated through short-sighted convenience - necessity for working supply chains

I like to explain this like baking a pizza: You have invited all your friends, bought all the ingredients. All the ingredients? No, you decided to not buy yeast, because it is such a tiny, insignificant part of the whole... (1/3)

Wokeism is surrogate Christian faith for a post Christian left. Christian nationalism is the same, bur for the right.

We have created an entire armada of bullshit jobs in which this is possible As long as there is "no money in MAKING things", i. e. Chinese subsidised imports and an asset-based economy this won't change Instagram is only it's reinforcement loop

The kingly lifestyle of an average American is not based on his "productivity" (what a BS, lol) but on the global empire Americans are holding currently. Part of the imperial dynamics being, all the actually useful work, all the material production is getting outsourced abroad
