i’m curious as to what you view will replace the current system. global capital is something far more powerful than trump, a trend set in motion by post WWII and reagan/thatcher economic policy.
“What is ending is not the Culture of Europe and Her Children, but the alien civilization that was artificially constructed from Social Security, GI bills, the mortgage system, college loans, plastic, and fertilizers, all of which have experienced enough half-lives to be devoid of value.”
what do you foresee or wish to see?
also, i can say with certainty that trump is empowering those you claim he is, and that there is a degree of “barbarism” to it, but in what ways does trump genuinely fight for the working class? the dems clearly are vapid and ineffective; is trump somehow more true to his promises?
I plan to write a third on what I would like to see, which is us moving beyond the profit principle entirely, but I'm pessimistic on the chances of that happening.
Trump wishes he was truer to his promises, but it seems that for the third time in a row he has surrounded himself with people that will betray them. But this is life under the Hamiltonian system of compromising with the business class.
"the grindset ‘hustlers’ of the post-pandemic, who love combat sports and building semi-scam companies in the shadow of the rusted husk of post-war social programs, public schools, and the “national community” of cable news, C-SPAN, and talk shows."
LOL! Good one, exactly well stated. Speaking as someone who's also done martial arts for 20+ years and doesn't subscribe to any of these views or nonsense espoused by the sophist Rogan BJJ crowd, it's very curious to me how these things sprung up and how it has little in common with my reasons for doing things or approach, even if there's some superficial similarities, occasionally.

I've written a new piece on what I think will replace our Democracy, continuing from the conclusion to this one, if you'd like to read it.
