Biden's latest address Is unprecedented in a lot of ways, and I've seen a lot of interpretations... but I haven't seen anyone really grasp the implications or the real Horror of what it probably represents.
2/

Firs things first: this Aesthetic does not happen by accident

Prepared announcements like this that are meant to define election cycle are prepared weeks in advance, speeches pre-written, optics (Colors) chosen, the mere choice to have Marines involved the input of dozens
3/

We've seen the memes... How Biden looked like every knockoff villain in pop culture history.
4/ And sure there are theories...

Maybe he just had a VEEP moment and his staff Thought #DarkBrandon was a vote getter

Or maybe they're trying to bate a schizophrenic into launching an attack and rescuing their midterm prospects.
5/

But few are talking about the news items that immediately preceded this announcement.

The stuff we know Biden and the Regime have been openly working on.

The truth is we've seen speeches like this before... many times.
6/

In 2002 Bush was giving fire and brimstone speech very similar to Biden's... But about Saddam and Iraq instead of Trump and 70-80 million Americans

These speeches were important in the leadup to war ...to prepare the American public, but more importantly the American state
7/
Biden's language is the Speech is very specific. Saying that Trump and "MAGA Republicans" present a "Clear and Present danger".

Attacking the Trump faction of the Republican party as "insurrectionists", and alluding to potential political violence.
8/

This just a month after the FBI raided Trump's house violating norms around legal reprisals that have last generations. Even Nixon was not raided or charged.

And this from an FBI and department of justice that has been caught fabricating testimony against team trump
9/

I think this was Biden giving the go ahead to the FBI and every other federal agency to give into their partisan hatreds and try to charge Trump... with anything.
10/

Back in 2020-21 The democratic party and NeverTrump Republicans were obsessed with trying to impeach Trump, even holding votes into his last month in office...

Specifically so that he would not be able to run again.
11/

Mitch and Co did not allow this to work... Largely to bargain with Trump and prevent him from writing last minute pardons to Snowden and Assange... and
from Declassifying anything embarrassing.
12/

Now far from fading into shame, Trump looks like the Frontrunner in 2024, has dominated with his midterm picks, and is openly talking about who he wants to fire when back in office.

He is a major threat to not just Biden, but the regime of agencies and Interests
13/

Either Biden is encouraging the Letter Agencies to Charge Trump and remove him from the running, Or he's hoping that after the midterms the lame duck NeverTrumpers, many already primary'ed out... Will vote to retroactively impeach or otherwise bar Trump's run
14/

Now this is obviously incredibly dangerous, wide swaths of the republican base felt cheated by the 2020 election...

Rightly so now that we've learned the FBI coordinated with tech companies to suppress the Biden laptop story
15/
And those supporters have only been assuaged with thoughts of 2024 and returning Trump to the office they feel he was denied.

Disqualifying Trump would convince millions of Americans there is no political solution... They'd protest, riot... worse.
16/

Taking away political options has historically been a surefire way to escalate tensions to violence.

The Front de Liberation Du Quebec ended because Nationalism became politically viable.

The IRA fought so long because demographics ensured they could not win by voting
17/

But that was the thrust of the speech.

That Biden and Co are happy to go to war with outraged Trump supporters, that they'd welcome deploying the national guard after a Trump disqualification, that they'd gladly use legal tricks to go after MAGA senators and congressmen
18/

After Jan 6th there were many calls for a Domestic "War on Terror" the application of the Patriot Act to Trump supporters and "Extremists"...

We might look back on the DarkBrandon speech the same way we look back on the Axis of Evil speech
If you like this thread please retweet, its the only way I get seen by new people
And also I write long form stuff.

This is my most popular piece.

Its a deep dive into how prison gangs run the criminal underworld, and the implications for how political systems decay

🧡The Shape of Doom to Come🧡

There's a lot of doomerism in the US and while some of this can verge really deranged, there are some really core insights you get from Rad Libertarians, Preppers, and geopolitics watchers, that most people simply have not internalized. Image

Globally Every institution that makes up the modern world is about 80 years old

Every major government institution was set into place during or immediately after WW2.

Social security, education, health schemes, military policy...

And they've been impossible to change since Image
3/

The problem is every single one of these institutions assumes 1940s demographics where everyone has 3-4 kids and almost everyone dies of a heart attack at 65.

Medicare and Social security where minor budget items when they came out...

This obviously isn't the case anymore. Image

🧡The Greatest Movie You've Never Heard Of🧡
1/

There are a lot of just incredible movies that either flopped or got buried

For example John Carpenter's THE THING is maybe the greatest horror film of all time, but critics dismissed in on release and it barely broke even Image
2/

But what if one of the greatest buried movies was also one of the greatest movies period?

What if I told you the single "Greatest" (in the Alexandrian sense of the word)... film ever made had somehow been lost to time and chance... Image
3/

Ladies and gentlemen...

Sergei Bondarchuk's 1970 masterpiece...

WATERLOO

The Largest, grandest, most massive movie that has ever or will ever be made.

Before CG before aftereffects, this joint British Russian production recreated the entire battle in exact detail Image

The decline of of the education system is oft commented and debated...

But its rare one finds such a dramatic demonstration of the decline

This graph, taken from Wikimedia, is a product or real research taken from the US census website

that data however has since been removed... for some reason
3/

The implications however are clear.

School has measurably gotten remarkably dumber over the past 80 years such that the intelligence require to complete an undergraduate degree today is LESS than the intelligence required to graduate Highschool in the 1940s.

I don't think people understand the significance of Jan 6th...

Indeed I don't even think Democrats screaming about "Threats to our democracy" Understand the significance

The 1789 Women's March on Versailles was a revolt of the Parisian lower classes against the monarchy...

Once they had arrived and captured the royal family, the royals would remain hostages of the revolution until the revolution chose to execute them 4 year later.
3/

Versailles had been built 20km outside of Paris to prevent this kind of thing. The distance was to provide an insurmountable buffer to mobs from the city and allow cavalry a chance to muster

Thus these poor Parisians were not considered a threat nor granted patronage

H. P. Lovecraft's stories have had a definitional impact on not just American Horror, but American Fiction and Philosophy

"Lovecraftian" no longer just describes fiction, but Aesthetics, ideas, modes of thinking

Yet his style is widely considered almost unreplicable
2/

Despite the vast demand and vast amounts of money flying about, almost no one has been able to successfully replicate Lovecraft's distinctive style in almost any medium.

Some such as director Stuart Gordon have created their own styles in a Lovecraftian setting.
3/

Likewise in videogames, the medium least like a novel, Lovecraft has had a renaissance.

With works like Bloodborne and Amnesia the dark descent enjoying great success in their Lovecraftian horror

There are some formulas so specific that any deviation is unheard of.

Detective fiction for example has hardly changed since Poe's 1841 story "Murder in the Rue Morgue"

However on a rare occasions something totally breaks the ethos of its genre

.

Coyote and Roadrunner
2/

The Slapstick animated rivalry is remarkably formulaic.

Two comedic animated personalities, match wits to the death, and the "weaker" comes out on top, thus both survive

Tom and Jerry
Bugs and Yosemite
Daffy and Elmer
Sylvester and Tweety
Spy and... Spy

You know the type
3/

Coyote and Roadrunner is NOT an animated rivalry.

Wile E. Coyote's quarry does not even have a name.

"The Roadrunner" is only known by its species.

Likewise Roadrunner isn't even a character. Wile E. Coyote faces off against a 2 second audio clip and an animation cycle
