“The [State] must always be opposed to the free market. A state which isn't is a temporary affair. This because of how power works. Power is the ability to make exceptions. Its easy to make rules ; its usually slightly harder to break them ; its much harder to enforce them ; but the crown belongs to the one who can do all three, which means making exceptions. And that cannot be called a free market, or a free anything.”

“Everyone’s talking about how the future will favour product thinkers over engineers. In fact, I'd say the future belongs to generalists — people who have lived at the intersection of ideas, fields and disciplines, even if they never learnt to code.
Specialists dig deep. Generalists see patterns across domains. Product ideas — real ones — are born at those intersections.”

Without bearer assets, escaping the clutches of the State becomes near impossible.
"I’ve started changing the prompt. Instead of “What does 2040 look like?” I ask, “What does your birthday in 2040 feel like?” Suddenly, the answers are different. They talk about who they hope would be there, where they would be, and what they would be doing. The future becomes grounded in something personal, emotional, and ultimately, human."
"The key is to notice when you are repeating someone else’s vision of tomorrow and get curious enough to imagine your own."
"You don’t need a time machine to imagine what could be; you simply need a prototype."
"Too many future visions center on technology, markets, or efficiency and miss the beating heart of change: human lives. Human-centered narratives illuminate the values, desires, tensions, and trade-offs that define meaningful futures. They help us imagine what the future brings as well as what it will feel like to live in it."
"If we don't notice the used future, we risk creating innovation theater, polishing legacy ideas instead of surfacing the truly new needs, emotions, and possibilities."

While Western media outlets may obfuscate what's really happening, the spin in the BRICS countries couldn’t be clearer: World War III is well underway, and it’s a fight to the finish over the economic freedom of the Global South.
