A fantastic piece of cultural writing here, kids. Not to be missed. Serious, do not skip. 🚀

Important thread! Bannon: "One of our objectives...with MAGA is to end the Federal Reserve. It is a complete scam." They keep telling us what they're trying to do, and then we act surprised when they do it — or damage things in the attempt. And this is what's next.

Good piece. I reach similar conclusions here.

Interesting thread. You’re getting into in-group/out-group definitions of epistemology here. You might enjoy Tajfel and Lifton. Here is a paper of my own that gets into these topics as regards info warfare.

Good story on the efforts to setup charter cities in Nigeria via Peter Thiel/Patri Friedman Pronomos Capital. tl;dr they tried to do this in Honduras and ran into headwinds, so they're extractively mining sovereignty in a place they deem easier to capture.

8/I **strongly** recommend folks take the time to read this free @4GWDOTDOTDOT piece from 2013 outlining the “Paul-North Strategy” — because this is what they’re trying to execute.

Important thread here; leaked doc from Google argues that big companies are not advantaged in the AI arena because the proliferation of lightweight open source AI models allows for faster, more creative and wider innovation. May be a serious inflection point for big tech.

Good thread on Jeffrey Sachs, whom I have been monitoring for some time. Though do note that the subject is Columbia economist Jeffrey D. Sachs, not Jeffrey A. Sachs, an error for which @P_Kallioniemi has already apologized.

Interesting article on the Occult + Far Right intersection in the "Order of the Nine Angles" cult.

Very good thread. China is not an arms-length actor here and is aligned with Putin. Russia is the tip of the spear, China is the lever.

Vitally important thread here. Again, this machine is for information warfare. It is being used to empower authoritarian regimes.

Here’s an interesting paper on this subject.
