The Financialist Kill Chain in Action – Gutting the British Empire & Its Descendants - a 🧵

Introduction
The Financialist Kill Chain has preyed on empires for centuries, hollowing out the British Empire and its descendants. Let’s trace its 7 steps through history, from the 1600s to today, and see how this predatory system works. [1/11]Image
1694 – Infiltration via the Bank of England
The Glorious Revolution (1688) set the stage. Financialists infiltrated Britain by establishing the Bank of England in 1694. It introduced national debt and bonds, tools for control, making Britain dependent on loans from Continental European banks. Step 1: Infiltration. #FinancialistKillChain [2/11]

1815 – Debt Entrapment During the Napoleonic Wars
By 1815, the Napoleonic Wars ballooned Britain’s debt to 200% of GDP. Financialist families funded the wars, profiting via loans and insider trading (e.g., Waterloo). Britain was trapped in a repayment cycle—Step 2: Debt Entrapment—while wealth flowed to Europe. #FinancialistKillChain [3/811]

19th Century – Asset Identification & Extraction
Financialists targeted British colonies’ resources: Indian textiles, African minerals, Caribbean sugar. European banks invested, extracting profits via Step 3 (Asset Identification) and Step 5 (Extraction). Britain’s core was drained, funding Europe’s splendor. #FinancialistKillChain [4/11]Image
Early 20th Century – Economic Destabilization
Post-WWI, Britain’s war debts soared. Financialists manipulated markets, deepening crises (Step 4: Economic Destabilization). By 1945, the empire was broke, forced into debt-for-asset swaps (Step 5), losing colonies and industries to foreign control. #FinancialistKillChain [5/11]Image
Mid-20th Century – The U.S. as the Next Target
As Britain crumbled, Financialists turned to the U.S. After WWII, the U.S. took on massive debts. The 1970s saw economic destabilization (Step 4) via oil crises and inflation, orchestrated by financial elites. Wealth extraction followed, mirroring Britain’s fate. #FinancialistKillChain [6/11]Image
2008 – Debt-for-Asset Swaps in the U.S.
The 2008 financial crisis, driven by predatory lending, saw U.S. wealth evaporate. Financialists profited, seizing assets through bailouts and foreclosures (Step 5: Debt-for-Asset Swaps). The Rust Belt’s decline—factories shuttered, jobs lost—was a textbook extraction. #FinancialistKillChain [7/11]

Today – Abandonment and Collapse
Britain is a shadow of its past, its colonies exploited and abandoned (Step 7). The U.S. teeters, with $35T in debt and foreign ownership of assets. Financialists now eye the dissolution of Britain, its former colonies and the United States. We must resist this cycle, must break the chain—awareness is the first step. #FinancialistKillChain [8/11]Image

Tariff Signal Pulse - a 🧵

The Trump Administration's tariff notifications and subsequent pullbacks served as a sophisticated "signal pulse" within the context of an ongoing economic and financial conflict, World War Three—an informational, economic, and financial war where global finance and banking are the primary battlegrounds.Image
These tariff actions were not merely trade policies but strategic probes designed to expose vulnerabilities, weaknesses, positions, and dependencies in the global financial and banking system.

By announcing tariffs and then retracting or adjusting them, the administration could observe reactions across markets, currencies, supply chains, and political landscapes, thereby gaining a precise understanding of the combatants' strengths and fragilities while simultaneously disrupting vulnerable positions. Following are the top eleven specific and defensible ways this strategy was executed, supported by observable economic phenomena and real-world examples.

Financialists Hell - a 🧵
The reason Financialists flooded our countries with immigrants is to sustain the residential housing market. The entire economy in the post-industrial era is dependent on grossly inflated prices - collateral for the illusion of an economy. - Read through to the end.
- Value of all residential properties in the US is estimated at approximately $50 trillion as of March 2025.

- Estimated US GDP for 2024 is $29,583.0 billion, as of March 27, 2025

- US residential property market is approximately 169% of the 2024 US GDP - 1.69 times larger.

- All of which is equally true for the UK, Ireland, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

Finance as a Religion Problem – a 🧵

This is a discussion of the seven ways in which history proves the statement: "We began to worship a new religion in the 1600s, finance. Replacing our cathedrals with stock exchanges, our churches with banks, our faith in the Divine with faith in money, our accountable hereditary Princes with unaccountable merchant Princes."Image
This shift is particularly evident when emphasizing the religious wars leading up to the Peace of Westphalia in Europe and the Glorious Revolution in the British Isles, which marked pivotal transitions from religious to economic dominance.
The Peace of Westphalia (1648): Diminishing the Church’s Political Power

The Peace of Westphalia concluded the Thirty Years' War (1618–1648), a brutal conflict initially sparked by religious disputes between Catholics and Protestants across the Holy Roman Empire. The treaty established the principle of cuius regio, eius religio ("whose realm, his religion"), granting rulers the authority to determine their state’s religion. This significantly reduced the Catholic Church’s political influence, shifting power to secular states. By weakening the church as a unifying authority, it paved the way for economic and political priorities—such as trade and finance—to take precedence, setting the stage for finance to emerge as a new societal force.

Female vs. Female Competition - a 🧵

In the abyss of human evolution, women’s competition for the genetic supremacy of their offspring descends into a nightmare of unrelenting ruthlessness, cold-blooded murder, and systematic genocide. Following seven primary strategies, women warp into grotesque distortions of their original forms, unveiling a world where compassion is extinct, and survival demands the annihilation of all who stand in the way. Here, women wield violence, treachery, and extermination as tools to carve a bloody path for their children’s dominance, leaving a wasteland of corpses in their wake.Image
Eugenic Slaughter and Genetic Annihilation

Mate selection transforms into a genocidal crusade, where women:

Butcher the genetically unfit, slitting throats or snapping necks of men who fail to exhibit peak physical perfection—crooked teeth, weak frames, or foul odors mark them for death.

Massacre entire bloodlines, poisoning wells or torching homes to erase lineages deemed inferior, ensuring no rival genes pollute their offspring’s future.

Enforce death camps, rounding up the "unworthy" for extermination, their bodies piled high as a testament to genetic purity. In this blood-soaked purge, women become executioners, their wombs the altars of a merciless eugenic god.
Cabalistic Blood Pacts and Mass Betrayal

Alliances morph into sinister brotherhoods of death, where women:

Slaughter rivals in ritualistic killings, their screams muffled as cabals feast on the power gained from each corpse.

Unleash plagues of lies, rumors so venomous they spark mass lynchings, bodies swinging from trees as crowds cheer the carnage.

Betray with gleeful savagery, disemboweling former allies in their sleep, their children’s futures bought with rivers of blood. These pacts are sealed in gore, loyalty a fleeting illusion shattered by the glint of a blade.

We Went Insane in World War I – a 🧵

"This book is to be neither an accusation nor a confession, and least of all an adventure, for death is not an adventure to those who stand face to face with it. It will try simply to tell of a generation of men who, even though they may have escaped shells, were destroyed by the war." - Erich Maria Remarque, All Quiet on the Western FrontImage
The following thought posits a sweeping and intentionally provocative line of reasoning about the impact of World War I (WWI) on Western and English Civilizations, with the core premise that the war drove both into a state of "clinical insanity," stripped both of moral and just legitimacy, and set off a chain of catastrophic consequences that persist to this very day.
It concludes with a call for these civilizations, and no, they are not the same, but are ancient mortal enemies, to confront this historical trauma and reconnect with their core values to survive unprecedented modern threats. Below, I will clarify and articulate this argument step by step, breaking it down into its core claims, evaluating their coherence, and presenting a more recognizable version of the reasoning.

The Collapse Problem – a 🧵

We’re now beginning to truly fall across the event horizon of the abyss, two paths before us, only. Either a slow and steady, till all-of-a sudden, collapse, as Rome in the 5thCentury. Or a brutal internal generational bloody fight ensures we emerge out of Rome like Byzantium under Constantine.

Either we’re at our end as the English Civilization (of which the Americans are the most dominate member), or we will ruthlessly war with ourselves as we must, and have before, until we’re restored as a Civilization that goes on for another thousand years.Image
"Civilizations serve as the collective immune systems of peoples, functioning as intricate error correction mechanisms that maintain the vitality of their way of life. They safeguard the continuity of beliefs, norms, standards, and proscriptions by adapting, correcting, and sometimes rejecting elements that threaten the cultural integrity or communal health, ensuring the resilience of culture against the diseases of time and change."

— Sociologist and Cultural Analyst, Dr. Arianna K. Lorentzen, "The Cultural Immune Response: Civilizations as Guardians of Tradition" (2022).
"Civilizations do not merely rise from the ashes of the past; they emerge as sophisticated error correction systems, designed through trial and error to safeguard the essence of peoples and their ways of life, adapting beliefs and practices to ensure continuity and resilience against the tides of change."
— Cultural Historian, Dr. Lydia Chen, "Beliefs and Resilience: The Evolution of Civilizations" (2022)
