The greatest strength comes from knowing your own weakness. My overarching thesis is that history is running in reverse. So the countries that had a great 20th century are on track for a tough 21st, and vice versa. For example: China, Russia, India, Eastern Europe were crushed by socialism. Now they are capitalist and unified to varying degrees. So their overall trajectory is up. Meanwhile, Woke America and Western Europe were once capitalist and unified. But now they’re woke with broken borders and bankrupt states. So their overall trajectory is down. Like Dalio and Elon, I believe the coming sovereign debt crisis will end 500 years of Western dominance (and also take down Japan). Failing states will get extremely nasty. I think China rises. I think the Internet succeeds the West, and opposes China. I also think Bitcoin Republicans can maybe turn Florida into a Taiwan equivalent, where capitalists take refuge. But most aren’t ready to hear this. They still think the postwar order will last.

One problem is most Westerners don’t know how tragic the fate of the East was in the last century. The bad guys did win, for generations. Communism crushed billions of lives. There were wealth seizures and mass murders. And of course communism posed as good, as being for the workers and peasants. But it was really just for the Communist Party. Right now in the West we have a woke ideology that poses as good. As being for women and minorities. But it’s really just for the Democrat Party. And the violence of BLM/antifa/Hamas is just a preview of what is to come. Drug addicts will squat in your house. Assets will be seized. Homes burned. Roads blocked. Propaganda will blot out the skies. Already happening, but it’ll escalate. Blue states in particular are bankrupt. Red states may survive if they break away in time. All this is just like what the East suffered last century. But few understand. They think that it can’t get that bad in the West. They fear AI but not neo-Bolshevism. They’re wrong.

So many of my friends and family refuse to accept this. It’s like arguing with a wall.

Indoctrination is so powerful and anyone over 50 still watches the “news” and drinks form the propaganda faucet everyday. I lived in SF the day Covid hit and watched it collapse, they murdered that city on purpose. Most people I know who support the “liberal” values that we grew up with have taken refuge in a red state.

Yeah, I'd say most people I'm close with are in that 'taken refuge in the red state' camp, but the ones I struggle with are not actually over 50. They're the late 20s/early 30s millennials who still believe in American institutions.

I have a close friend who is in OSINT and taught SERE school and worked counter human intelligence for the Marines for the last decade until he discharged because he (and his entire unit) would not get the RNA shot. They have an entire week of spy school that discusses this video and the different ways China, Russia, and Israel intelligence has been slowly infiltration our universities and local politics. It’s just common discourse in the intel agencies that this is happening and they are not fighting it — they are doing the same thing right back to those countries but also to American citizens. The goal is to divide and therefore control. https://youtu.be/bX3EZCVj2XA?si=Tmh1K6DPwQAx6nRt

It's common knowledge and they're not fighting it?! Why?

Because they also do the same thing to American citizens. The overall goal is to flood Americans with misinformation and to destroy the family unit and this allows people to confused and controlled. We are just now seeing the effect of 2 generations of college kids being indoctrinated. We are about 30 years into the 40 year psychological war.

Our government hates us and the sooner we accept that the sooner we can do something about it.
