In a brilliant interview by @JanJekielek on Epoch Times, novelist and essayist @walterkirn describes our plight in the face of what he calls the “hydra-headed monster,” the bureaucracy: “We sit squarely in the middle of an absurdist drama.” Highly recommended.
There are gems upon gems throughout the interview. For example, Kirn takes on elitism. His view is that the elites believe it to be their job to “engineer and bring about right behavior,” using tools the masses don’t know are being used. Think psyop campaigns. Kirn is not a
conspiracy theorist. He even rejects the idea that he’s a contrarian. Rather, as someone who lives in a small town in Montana and knows the owner of the local hardware store, he has seen first hand what the elites with their increasingly absurd edicts have wrought.
The beneficiaries of these policies have been billionaires, whose collective wealth has grown at unprecedented rates.
