The Olympics felt more washed this year Like a grand tradition that doesn’t quite live up to its past years’ glory Thinking it might be correlated with the general breakdown of the current world order, and may be yet another signal of a rearrangement to come Is it just me, or anyone else feel this vibe?

Olympics glory peaked in 2004. some would argue that so did our civ. it's a corrupt, inhumane organization that has penetrated the psychee of every human being as the unquestionable authority over all of sports. I don't watch it out of principle.

Yeah Strauss’ theory says 4th turning started in 2008 Presumably the Olympics started out trying to do good for sport, but it’s gotten corrupted over time because the system got stale Hence its time for a reset

generally agree but most things were always shit about this organization. it's the 'greatest' sport event and the athletes don't get paid while everyone else makes bank. imagine if that was the state of things with NFL, NBA or any soccer league.

Straussian generational theory feels like one of those things that makes events in retrospect pack neatly into the tendency for human subitization to converge on clusters of four, drawing coincidences into prediction and omitting all else. The reset is within us the whole time.
