I’ve seen quite a few people saying that the Trump-Musk feud is a distraction and asking, from what?
It’s almost all distraction and maxing out everyone’s bandwidth. So what is it distracting YOU from is the question. What is important to you that you’re being distracted from?
I don’t have an answer for everyone but my answer is; WAR
The Global Empire, like all empires in history, get overextended and collapse under their own administrative weight.
Maintaining the Empire is bankrupting us like it did the Soviet Union except we’re footing the bill for the entire globe, not 1/3 of it. We have better financiers who have been able to keep the house of cards going for longer. But eventually, it collapses.
I can’t tell you when, I just know it’s a certainty. Could be in 5-10 years, may not happen in my kid’s lifetime. But it will.
How low is your time preference for moving to a better system? Because I don’t want my kid to live in a collapsing world that isn’t prepared because we put our head in the sand. I want to work with people to start building the future we want for our kids.
We don’t need the government’s permission to do what we think is best for our children. We can just start building it and let the ass clowns in DC continue to act like children fighting over their shitty toy.
