If Americans thought deeply and paid attention they’d realize many untruths trotted out for myths sake 2 off the top: The constitution is basically useless. How many fucking laws do we have that fully contradict it? Lincoln was a shit head who enslaved a million men to “free the slaves”

# Comprehensive Analysis Title: Rothbard’s Preferred Pronouns | Mises Institute URL: https://mises.org/mises-wire/rothbards-preferred-pronouns? Collected: 2025-09-27 15:11:30 +0000 Analyzed: 2025-09-27 15:16:35 +0000 ## Overall takeaway The misuse of collective pronouns by governments obscures state coercion, creating a false sense of legitimacy in political actions. ## Conceptual model - Collective pronouns blur state and people's will. - Democracy can mask coercive state actions. - Historical critiques reveal ideological camouflage. - Language shapes perceptions of legitimacy. - Political rhetoric often serves ruling interests. ## Next steps (optional) - Explore historical examples of collective pronoun misuse. - Analyze current political rhetoric for similar patterns. - Discuss implications for democratic engagement. ## Short summary The document critiques the misuse of collective pronouns by governments to blur the line between state actions and the will of the people, leading to a false sense of legitimacy. It highlights how figures like Murray Rothbard and historical examples illustrate this ideological camouflage in American politics. ## Comprehensive summary • The document examines how collective pronouns like "we," "us," and "our" are misused to conflate the government with the people, obscuring the reality of state coercion and creating false legitimacy for government actions. • An exchange on The Phil Donahue Show during the savings and loan crisis illustrates this confusion: one man asked why "the government" rather than taxpayers should pay, while Donahue incorrectly claimed "we are the government." • Democracy reinforces this conflation by claiming that government actions represent "the people's will," making state intervention appear voluntary and legitimate even when it's coercive. • This linguistic sleight-of-hand manifests across the political spectrum: the left uses it to make people hate "America" for government actions, while the right uses it to deflect criticism of the state as unpatriotic. • Murray Rothbard identified how these collective pronouns mask the reality of political life, creating an "ideological camouflage" that makes government actions against individuals appear voluntary or self-inflicted. • Historical examples from the Constitutional ratification debates show Patrick Henry and Samuel Adams objecting to "We the People" language as illegitimate centralization of power. • Mikhail Bakunin warned that the "will of the people" is actually "the negation and sacrifice of all the real wills of the people," serving only the ruling class while claiming to represent everyone. ## Entities - keyword: people, democracy, name, good, political, government, other, state, actions, states - location: Columbus, America, Britain, New York, Ohio, US, Philadelphia, Virginia, States - organization: Library of America, Washington Post, Nazi, Idea of Sovereignty, Communism - person: Bernard Bailyn, Murray Rothbard, Donahue, Patrick Henry, Marx, Bastiat, Phil Donahue, Mikhail Bakunin, Bakunin, Samuel Adams ## Related content 1. The Systematic Unraveling of the Administrative State ⋆ Brownstone Institute Why: similarity 0.91 Summary: • The administrative state began with the 1883 Pendleton Act, which created the US civil service under President Chester Arthur, replacing the "spoils system" with "merit-based" hiring to bring professional expertise to government • What started as a small reform evolved through world wars, the Great Depression, and Cold War into massive bureaucracies with unfireable employees who created operational frameworks for civil society - essentially becoming a "state within a state" • The deep state developed mutually beneficial relationships with industry through revolving doors and with media for public manipulation, while the public maintained the illusion of democratic control through elections that had little impact on actual governance • The administrative state's legitimacy was never directly challenged by the Supreme Court until recently, despite being fundamentally inconsistent with the Constitution's vision of government by the people • Trump's presidency marked the beginning of active confrontation when he discovered his executive authority was largely ceremonial, leading to conflicts over firings and the COVID response where agencies acted without presidential approval • After leaving office, Trump issued an executive order to reclassify civil service positions as fireable, which Biden immediately repealed, setting up the current constitutional battle • Recent Supreme Court decisions have systematically dismantled administrative power, including Trump v. American Federation (allowing mass federal firings), overturning Chevron deference, limiting agency adjudication, and restricting regulatory overreach - fundamentally changing a century-old system within one year URL:

We got a glimpse of this, when cameras recorded thousands of State Department employees carrying their belongings out in bankers’ boxes.

2. Who Controls the Administrative State? ⋆ Brownstone Institute Why: similarity 0.91 Summary: • President Trump ordered steps to "facilitate the closure" of the Department of Education, but this language falls short of actual abolition since he cannot unilaterally close a congressionally-created agency • The core issue is who controls the administrative state - a massive bureaucratic apparatus not mentioned in the Constitution that has grown since the civil service began in 1883 • The "deep state" consists of countless agencies with unknown numbers of employees and contractors, operating through deep, middle, and shallow layers that extend far beyond public view • Covid controls sparked widespread awareness of these unelected forces controlling daily life, leading to political revolt against administrative power • Trump's second term has attempted unprecedented curbs on administrative state power, but faces constant barriers including over 100 legal challenges and judges blocking his ability to fire workers or redirect funding • Courts have even stopped signature achievements like DOGE's shuttering of USAID, with judges dictating who the administration can hire • The fundamental question is whether the president actually controls executive branch agencies as the Constitution suggests, or if these agencies are truly "independent" - meaning captured by the industries they regulate • Agency "independence" in practice means codependency with industrial cartels, trade groups, and systems of graft while ordinary citizens suffer the consequences • Three main criticisms of presidential control exist: fears of dictatorship, return of the spoils system, and erosion of checks and balances - but the administrative state already represents these problems on a massive scale URL:

Who Controls the Administrative State?

What can be done and how to get from here to there? Trump’s executive order on the Department of Education illustrates the point precisely.

3. Tucker Wants You Lashed to the Mast—Don’t Be - by Lau Vegys Why: similarity 0.91 Summary: • **Tucker Carlson's "lashed to the mast" message**: At a conservative conference, Tucker argued Americans should be "all in" on America with no backup plans, exit strategies, or Plan B options, claiming real patriots don't hedge • **The mathematical reality of U.S. fiscal crisis**: National debt hit $37 trillion and will exceed $50 trillion by 2033, with interest payments consuming nearly half of tax revenue; including off-the-books promises, the real financial hole approaches $150 trillion • **Inevitable consequences**: The Federal Reserve will be forced to print tens of trillions to bail out the Treasury, resulting in hyperinflation that will dwarf the 1980s crisis • **Tucker's privilege vs. regular Americans**: Tucker, who made $10 million annually at Fox News, can afford to stay "lashed to the mast" with his assets and offshore arrangements, while most Americans lack this luxury • **Plan B as rational insurance**: Having geographic optionality isn't unpatriotic—it's insurance against sovereign risk, similar to homeowners or life insurance • **Growing trend of Americans seeking options**: Google searches for "dual citizenship" are spiking; Arton Capital reported 400% increase in U.S. clients seeking second passports; Latitude saw 1,000% increase since 2020 • **Timing is critical**: Plan B arrangements must be made before crisis hits, while systems still function and options remain available • **Uruguay as a Plan B destination**: The author promotes conferences exploring Uruguay for legal residency, foreign bank accounts, and property investment URL:

4. The War for Bankocracy – The Solari Report Why: similarity 0.91 Summary: • **Central banks are positioning to replace democratic governance with private central bank rule**, seeking to free the Federal Reserve from constitutional constraints that prevent secret operations beyond Congressional oversight • **The War for Bankocracy is an 8-episode video series** documenting this shift, with Solari Report serving as an independent repository and safe harbor for the materials, protecting them from censorship • **A May 2024 Biden White House memo titled "The Importance of Central Bank Independence"** advocates for central bank supremacy over constitutional government, claiming "nearly all advanced economies are now governed by independent central banks" • **The memo promotes "central bank independence" over "Federal Reserve independence"** - the former meaning banks answer to no one, while the latter simply means independence from the president while remaining subject to Congress • **Episode I reveals the memo contradicts the U.S. Constitution** by advocating governance by central banks rather than the three branches of government, potentially allowing the Fed to operate in complete secrecy • **Episode II establishes that monetary control has been the apex sovereign power since 1694**, when the Bank of England introduced private money issuance at the sovereign level, surpassing even the power to raise armies • **The Federal Reserve already controls the entire U.S. money supply**, including all Federal Reserve notes (cash) and exercising enormous control over $17.5 trillion in bank deposits while serving as top bank regulator • **If implemented, these policies would remove the Fed from constitutional constraints**, allowing it to operate with complete secrecy like other global central banks, causing the global monetary system to "go dark" URL:

5. USAID and the Architecture of Perception ⋆ Brownstone Institute Why: similarity 0.91 Summary: • USAID, with a $40 billion budget operating in 100+ countries, functions as an "architect of global consciousness" rather than just a humanitarian aid organization • Reuters received USAID funding for "Large Scale Social Deception" and "Social Engineering Defence," revealing systematic reality construction through trusted news sources • Internews Network, USAID-financed, pushed $472.6 million through secretive networks, worked with 4,291 media outlets, produced 4,799 hours of broadcasts reaching 778 million people, and trained 9,000+ journalists • USAID funded both the Wuhan Lab's gain-of-function research and media outlets that shaped COVID narratives, plus organizations that fabricated impeachment evidence and election system infrastructure • The agency operates across all domains—markets, tech, culture, health, media—with intelligence agencies embedded to shape perception rather than control reality itself • Specific funding includes: $34 million to Politico, payments to NYT and BBC, $84 million to Clinton Foundation, $100 million for Ukraine AIDS treatment, $20 million to Sesame Street Iraq, $68 million to WEF • USAID funded Brazil's 2022 election interference against Bolsonaro through censorship, left-wing activist support, and media manipulation campaigns • The agency gives $27 million to groups controlling Soros-funded prosecutors (twice what Soros himself gives), extending influence to law enforcement and prosecution decisions • Evidence suggests USAID involvement in 2019 Trump impeachment efforts, using perception-shaping tools domestically URL:

6. Elon’s DOGE Is OK, But Mises Is Way Better | Mises Institute Why: similarity 0.90 Summary: • Elon Musk's DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) efforts to cut government waste are positive, but the author argues he should focus more on addressing the root cause: public economic ignorance that enables government central planning, spending, and warmongering • Ludwig von Mises advocated for widespread economic education as "the primary civic duty," arguing that economics concerns everyone and should not be relegated to classrooms or esoteric circles, as all political issues fundamentally involve economic theories • The author notes that Elon has shown increasing awareness of economic education's importance, tweeting about Hayek and economic understanding, but lacks a full "Misesian ethos-understanding" • Many libertarians transformed from socialist believers to freedom champions through discovering sound economics, demonstrating education's transformative power • Mises believed that even the best theories are useless without public support, and that "the philosophy of the majority prevails" in the long run, making public opinion supremacy crucial • The author warns that Elon faces increasing opposition from the economically-ignorant public, citing Robert Reich's inflammatory rhetoric and multiple attacks on Tesla locations, suggesting Elon may eventually be brought down • Javier Milei's success in Argentina demonstrates the power of the Misesian approach, winning the presidency through extensive economic education campaigns that reached tens of thousands • The author concludes that without educating "the immense majority" about economics, "there is no hope left for mankind's future," emphasizing that proper economic knowledge is essential for human civilization's survival URL: https://mises.org/mises-wire/elons-doge-ok-mises-way-better 7. Get Ready For Trump’s Monetary Reset - by Matt Smith Why: similarity 0.90 Summary: • Gold has surged 45% since 2024, with an unknown US buyer purchasing 2,000 metric tons (64 million ounces) since November 2024 - nearly 25% of the US government's supposed gold stockpile • This buyer demands physical delivery, doesn't care about price or short-term profits, suggesting it's likely the US government (Fed or Treasury) acting on Trump's plan • Trump's team is orchestrating a monetary reset to avoid economic collapse, surrounded by billionaires with a workable plan unlike previous administrations who merely exploited the system • Gold is fleeing London for the US, with delivery delays extending from two days to two months as someone high in Wall Street and government executes Trump's economic policy • A gold audit is being prepared to show other nations (China, Russia, BRICS) the true state of US solvency as they seek alternatives to the current US-led monetary order • Trump plans to remonetize gold and "monetize everything" to restore US wealth through productivity, taking inspiration from an unlikely source (implied to be China) • The plan aims to redraw US supply chains and fix massive debt/deficit problems that previous administrations considered unsolvable • This represents the biggest monetary system change since Nixon severed the dollar from gold in 1971, potentially creating a "Golden Age" for prepared investors while degrading lifestyles of the unprepared • The author frames this as a "Fourth Turning" moment where radical ideas get adopted rapidly, warning that Doug Casey's long-predicted "Greater Depression" and economic "Abyss" are finally URL:

Today, the TSA felt up my junk Apparently my penis was detected by the nudie scanner as “large and veiny” and the gay TSA guy felt me up while the boss watched Fucking 🤡🌍 Anyway… The highlight of the day was trying to explain to the retarded uber driver that “MORE OF SOMETHING MAKES THAT SOMETHING WORTH LESS” Unreal how retarded the average American is. He was spouting the bs about Elon now having everyone’s personal data thanks to DOGE What a muppet. I tried to explain to this muppet that Elon was trying (badly) to save his ass from hyperinflation. It was the one shot, too bad yer fucked now Didn’t even attempt to bring up Bitcoin Thank you for your attention to this matter
