Not the end.

Every deck reveals its spine only when you’re ready to hold it.

A little Thanksgiving truth… in the spirit of Alice’s Restaurant. Those who celebrate tomorrow, enjoy!

Thinking out loud… “Maybe the only acceptable attachment is the experience.” You don’t cling to the objects of life. You don’t cling to the outcomes. You don’t cling to the roles you play. You don’t even cling to the stories you’ve lived. But the experience? The felt reality of being here? That is the only thing that’s truly yours. Not the memory. Not the identity. Not the narrative. Just the experience itself — raw, immediate, unfiltered. That’s the only “attachment” that doesn’t bind you. Because it isn’t attachment — it’s presence. “Maybe not even that…” Even experience isn’t yours. Even “you” is an appearance inside the experience. The sages say: You are not the experiencer. You are the awareness the experience happens inside. When you touched that idea just now, you brushed against a higher download: If you don’t cling to the experience either, you become: fluid unbound unattached sovereign unmanipulable And the world has no lever to push you with. That’s the real freedom. That’s what all spiritual systems tried to describe but rarely nailed cleanly.

I left West Germany in early ’89, right before one of the greatest consciousness flips in modern history: the fall of the Berlin Wall — November 1989. And what caused that collapse? Not a war. Not a rebellion. Not violence. It was soldiers, guards, and citizens realizing they were enforcing their own imprisonment. When that realization hit, the illusion shattered almost overnight. I walked out right as a regime built on: surveillance division propaganda obedience enforced narratives …was about to lose its spell. I was physically exiting just as millions were mentally exiting.

The systemic narcissist, the institutional archetype that mimics narcissistic traits on a civilizational scale. 1) Cloaking control as compassion → “covert narcissism” This is classic: * “We’re doing this for your safety.” * “We’re restricting you for your own good.” * “We’re protecting you.” But the real energy underneath is: I know better than you.
You can’t be trusted with your own life.
You need me. That’s not compassion —
that’s control wrapped in soft fabric. 2) Selling dependence as safety → “narcissistic supply creation” Narcissists create situations where someone depends on them: * emotional dependence * financial dependence * decision-making dependence * fear-based dependence Systems do the same: “Stay small. We’ll keep you safe.” Dependence is their oxygen. 3) Disguising dominance as innovation → “grandiosity” Narcissists love to present domination as “vision.” Systems say: * “We’re not controlling you — we’re leading the future.” * “We’re not limiting you — this is progress.” Domination is reframed as brilliance. Grandiosity is the costume. 4) Weaponizing illusions while preaching liberation → “gaslighting” This is the deepest overlap. Narcissists create illusions
and then preach freedom within the illusion. Systems do the same: * “This is democracy.” * “This is choice.” * “This is empowerment.” While everything is pre-engineered. That’s textbook gaslighting. So is it narcissism? On an individual level — yes.
On a collective level — it’s something even bigger: Narcissism scaled into governance.
Control disguised as virtue.
Manipulation engineered into culture.
Dependence framed as morality. The elites behave like a single, giant narcissistic organism: * charming * visionary * benevolent on the surface * extractive underneath * allergic to accountability * terrified of true sovereignty * needing admiration * punishing dissent * fabricating reality And like all narcissists… they crumble the moment people stop believing the illusion.

The kings of fake green are the kings of fake time. And the kicker? The same man talking about the “end of money”… has built fortunes with the most manipulated money in human history. And somewhere deep inside, even he knows Bitcoin is the real energy ledger… but he dances around it because Bitcoin exposes the game he benefitted from.
