I'm about to list a large number (32 in fact) of hypothesis on the current political situation in the Anglosphere and West generally.
The reason I am doing is is to highlight the deficiency in our analyses challenging our critical assumptions.
Most political discourse today..
Amounts to an assertion of hypotheses, with little in the way of evidence to refute any of them. This leads to 'holistic analysis' (going with your gut, aka cognitive biases).
This works well in daily life (mostly) where a little rationality goes a long way -- not so much in
poltics at nation scale. There is no particular order or arrangement -- each one will be a separate tweet so we can pick and choose any we care to discuss:
H1 Existent America (as opposed to collapsing Neo-Liberal regime) should be defended as a Nation
By EA I mean...
post-1776 America on the main line of development that has gotten us to 2022 so far as 'one nation'.
H2 Existent Union occupation (post 1865) should be defended, same for post Wilson foreign policy regime, post FDR bureaucratic and security states
H3 The Union should return to the pan-White Wilsonian consensus ('melting pot' with our without racial intermarriage)
H4 The collapse of Financial Capital is inevitable because of demographics in Western Countries and its implications for growth
H5 America is a safe haven for external oligarchs including China, because our demographic is (still) growing and thus there is effective demand that is not existent in countries undergoing free fall demographic collapse.
H6 Oligarchs have factions that dominate political warfare and are represented in the Deep State (institutional basis of Civil Government, Law, Academics, and Journalism)
H7 The dominant Oligarchic faction is the Eastern Liberal Anglo-American alliance ('Boston Brahmins')
H8 Oligarchic factions parallel the 'schools' of Macroeconomics (East Coast Saltwater, West Coast Saltwater, interior Freshwater)
H9 Neo-Liberalism is identical with the Mount Pelerin Society / Monetarist / Neo-Conservative alignment
H10 Symptomatic Political Warfare is a Maoist, Mass Line Rebellion, properly diagnosed by UA
H11 Soros backs the Obama faction, and uses dialectical methods
H12 Soros is a 'radical liberal' primarily concerned with implementing
... Popper's Open Society
H13 The Clintons were stopped by the Oligarchic faction that backed Trump
H14 Trump's performance upset all the Oligarchic factions to some degree
H15 China (or Russia, or the NAIS) are the principle operatives challenging Existent America
H16 Existent America is likely to fracture sometime in the next century
H17 Trump's backers were a faction of Oligarchs as named by /pol/ Insider Anon
H18 Reviving the Confederacy and Golden Circle are desirable
H19 Interfaith and Ecumenism are driven by Marxism
H20 The conservative element of oligarchical factions consists of X (supply X)
H21 The Truckers in Canada are backed by American and Albertan Oligarchs
H22 The Dollar as reserve currency (para-Bretton Woods) is unlikely to change in the medium term
H23 The Ukraine will be given to Russia bloodlessly
H24 Ripple (XRP) is an important cryptocurrency in the medium to long run
H25 The Oligarchs believe that America (and post-Capitalism) needs to be stabilised by 2026 at the latest
H26 COVID (masking and pushback) was an intentional, dialectical move to get the left and right to fight each other (political warfare)
H27 'Vaccines are about one thing, centralizing the hospital and pharmaceutical apparatus'
H28 Canada was deliberately targeted for a Revolution
H29 What is Wise or Prudent about Revolution?
H30 A simple bottom up (localists capture the political food chain) will not work.
H31 Creating a Schmittian executive or Emperor/Fuehrer in Washington will not work
H32 The Catholic Church should have political potency in America, provided it can avoid capture by 'Democracy' or becoming a tool of the NAIS
Remember these are *hypotheses* -- I haven't said whether I would vote yea or nay on any of them, much less presented evidence to support or refute them.
Some of them might not be interesting at all, or in dire need of recasting.
Is a craftsman who owns his tools and belongs to a union the owner of the business he operates?
Another question: has software now become a commodity or is it still a product, or a bespoke product of craftsmanship? What kind of software does Uber provide?
We now reach a stage called 'predisposition' (to Sin) -- prolepsis. This is an important term that comes to us from Stoicism as well, and we will need to spend some time here.
Prolepsis is all the TV you've watched and news articles you've read that predispose you to sin
Your mind is scarred-- you need brain bleach to remove all the stored up images, many of them of past sins of your own, but also of suggestion and temptation, all of which can come into play AT ANY MOMENT and torment you.
You now have become a bit like an animal -- you have an
This thread will be long -- I'm going to go over each of the 6 stages of temptation (except the first, provocation) which we've done, with reference backwards in time to Stoicism and forwards to Critical Thinking and Intelligence Analysis.
Because we are discussing 'The Narrative' in the frame of Intelligence analysis and also Addiction, we really do have to pay attention to the terminology around Phantasia...
Phantasiai are the 'presentations' of the senses -- sense data if you will. English reflexes are...
The position of a Christian facing the onslaught of the Narrative is precisely this:
“What happens is this. In a moment, without a word being spoken or an image presented, a sudden passionate urge lays hold of the victim. It comes faster than anything in the physical world ...
and is swifter and more indiscernible than any spirit. It makes its appearance in the soul by a simple memory, which is unconnected with anything, independent of time and inexpressible, and in some cases comes without the person him self realizing the fact...
Someone who has been able to detect such a subtlety, someone with the gift of mourning, may be able to explain how with the eye alone, with a mere glance, by the touch of a hand, through a song overheard, the soul is led to commit a definite sin of unchastity without any notion..
Commentary on the net seems hopelessly naive about the Ukraine. It's a four-handed game is why.
The Hapsburg/Pan Europa/P2 bloc (see ISGP Studies to understand what that is) are clearly interested in returning Ruthenia to the Habsburg fold, and thus agree with Putin...
... who might want to restore the 1914 Imperial borders (see Yarvin for details here).
The Marxists obviously want to preserve the borders of Lenin, which involves keeping the Ukraine whole -- and the Hapsburgs would likely be ok with *Expansion*
The Anglo-American elites follow the City lead, which is *often* in alignment with the P2 block through the CIA, but not *invariably*. Are the Queen and the Pope always playing on the same Black Guelph team or not?
