I was playing Diablo 4 online with friends tonight, and had a thought: The thing about all large-geography role-playing games is that you always get to talk to the people in charge. This has always seemed very immersion-breaking for me. I mean, nobody gets to actually talk to the people who run our city, our state or our country (unless you’re vetted and you pay). BUT - history has taught me there was a time when the White House had an open door for whomever happened by (as late as the mid-1800’s), when Presidents and Senators et al would have to physically travel town-to-town to engage with citizens of all kinds, and sway their vote by doing so. “Glad-handing” and kissing babies and such. And yes, ‘duels’ could be declared by a peer against a peer, and a few times assassinations happened or went awry. Take all this how you will. What changed was the rise of the Corporation. With the rise of the corporation (on the back of Fiat money, very important to note) was the rise of Departmentalization, of ‘Vertical’ structure, the rise of the wealthy intentionally recognizing and creating ‘worlds within the world’ in which nobody else could engage with them. It’s as simple as hiring a Customer Service Dept to handle customer complaints. Or “First Class” cum “Private Jets”. Or “Vacation to Hawa’ii” became, idunno, where do the rich vacation now that you and I can’t go? And it’s become as exceedingly as complex as a Deep State that is beyond Democratic, or even elected-official oversight, and which is now a global Organized Crime ring. This ‘Virtualization’ - not the right word, but its what I have right now - this Virtualization of real human interaction underscores all of the problems we suffer right now in modern society. People who can gain power no longer have to engage with the plebs. People who can gain power no longer have to answer for their actions. They’ve established a real-world industry of Customer Service to separate them from having to have real lives, with real consequences. They now live in a world apart. And therefore, they see the rest of us, as a world apart from them. It wasn’t always this way, not but by a few generations. It was the rise of the Corporations on the back of Fiat money that rug-pulled our Leaders’ Humanity out from under them, and allowed the tiny number of actual Sociopath/Psychopaths that exist in human society to flood into the halls of Rulership. In the past, 1 maybe 2 Sociopath/Psychopaths could gain power, at great cost. Now, they seek refuge from their shame by flooding into the major Institutions of Central Planning across the globe.

If you want to be entertained and educated about China, you might want to begin with the following: https://www.youtube.com/@ChinaFactChasers https://www.youtube.com/@TheChinaShow There are others, but the reality is that if you don’t get information directly out of China by people who speak and read Chinese, you’re getting Propaganda. 100%. So these two references make it fun and interesting and entertaining to learn why Wall Street is bassackward and going to lose their fiat shirts because they’re too white for China!

China will be the rug-pull of Wall Street. As much as I want Nolan Bauerle to be right that Etherium is the rug-pull that brings down Wall Street… I think the end is simpler and more global. Almost nobody in global finance understands that they never knew anything about China, and that it’s collapsing. China had cheap labor, and nothing else. And that’s done now. That great sucking sound is Chinese investments going to zero.

You can ignore this b/c NY Post - and not a real actual authentic valid news-wrapper like the NYT or WSJ: “New emails show officials at the Department of Homeland Security created a Stanford University “disinformation” group that censored Americans’ speech before the 2020 election, according to a House Judiciary Committee report exclusively obtained by The Post.” The surprise is how these “new emails” appeared and were given to the Post. As a Bitcoiner I just look for the signal, take it all in, then let it all out again. What you hold onto is what they’ll use against you.

“Putin travels personally to Kazahkstan” This isn’t a visit, its an “in your face” to Western leaders. As in, you can’t drone me here, therefore you can’t drone any of us anymore.” The next few days will decide if Putin will abide. Then it’s a decade of musical chairs for Westerners. https://rumble.com/v3ulmr7-putin-arrives-in-kazakhstan.html

Thank you so much. It’s not that I missed 100%, it’s that I fucking nailed 98%. And 90% is something I should only lose a few minutes of sleep over. Also 75% is normal, no big whoop. View quoted note →

Almost every esoteric (not “orthodox” but esoteric) spiritual tradition has a teaching within it about the need for people to “speak their story” to the world. It’s something that doesn’t apply really until the age of 40, and whether the story is spoken alone or within a trusted group, the need to speak it out loud is absolute. But the greater importance is the personal preparation to reveal our story. It can’t be an “autobiography” which is just ego and a fiction of ourselves. It has to be real, authentic. I’ve experienced a number of these moments - including myself - and they are life-changing. But they should almost never happen in happenstance. It needs to be something appropriately prepared for.

Anyone have any new insight on Blue Wallet’s “secret” easter-egg LDK wallet setup? Info out there is sketchy and speculative, but I’m just wondering what it’s use-case might be if I wanted to check it out. I won’t go into details, because it’s obviously an r&d thing, but I feel like I want to be part of the r&d….

“Dems’ new emails show officials at the Department of Homeland Security created a Stanford University “disinformation” group that censored Americans’ speech before the 2020 election, according to a House Judiciary Committee report exclusively obtained by The Post. The House panel’s 103-page staff interim report says never-before-seen emails and internal communications were obtained from the group, known as the Election Integrity Partnership (EIP), and show how it worked with DHS’ Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) to flag, suppress and remove online speech in coordination with big tech companies.”
