• The Death of Reason

    A man was killed for his words. His killer wasn’t some foreign agent or political assassin; he was a man already unmoored from reality, a homosexual in a relationship with a partner who still carries male anatomy but insists on being seen as a female. That detail matters, not because of shock value, but because…

  • The Renaissance of Child Labor.

    For anyone willing to look, the toxic delivery models of China and Korea have started creeping into the U.S. Anyone with a car and a vest can now drop your latest package from Walmart or Amazon. On the surface, that might not seem like a problem. If you look a little closer for a little…

  • No Cure for Clarity

    I’ve spent decades being told something’s wrong with me. Depression. Anxiety. Executive dysfunction. “Treatment-resistant” this or that. They say I don’t respond to medication. Maybe it’s because I’m not sick in the way they think I am. Maybe I just can’t lie to myself well enough to pass for healthy. I’ve tried the pills. I’ve…

  • Giving Ten Percent.

    I don’t mind giving what is asked of me. Ten percent is almost nothing, or at least it is closer to nothing than something. I give it willingly if it feeds someone, shelters someone, or lifts someone I will never meet. Take it and use it. I don’t need a thank you. What bothers me…

    Modernity tricked us. It told us to leave behind our families, our neighborhoods, our support systems, all for the illusion of progress. We scattered ourselves across cities, chasing jobs and promotions, trading real connection for the shallow promise of success. Now we pay for what we used to get from community. Daycare. After‑school programs. Institutions…

    III. Government: The Enforcer of the Status Quo The government’s role, far from being a protector of individual rights, is more akin to that of an enforcer for the economic and technological elites. Through laws, surveillance, and the constant threat of violence, it ensures that the system remains intact and unchallenged. Mass Surveillance: The revelations…

    II. The Economy: The Beast That Consumes Everything The economy, like a hungry beast, has found a way to commodify every aspect of human life. What should be basic rights—housing, healthcare, education—have been transformed into products to be bought and sold. The narrative of upward mobility has been reduced to a thin veneer, hiding a…

  • Systemic Realism: Technology

    All, Ranting and Raving

    We live under a triad of control: technology, economy, and government. Each system feeds into the others, forming a complex web of power. These forces appear distinct, but they function in synchronization like the parts of a combustion engine, ensuring that control is consolidated in the hands of a few while individual autonomy is gradually…

    How can I put such an outrageous and patently false title on this post? Because, as much as we all enjoy the internet, it has become the most powerful weapon for destroying the Western world. It does not matter your politics, identity, or religion. The World Wide Web has been completely infested with the same…

  • Economic Domestication and You.

    I’ve been thinking about all the different ways we’ve become domesticated like animals in modern life. The classic examples from Industrial Society and Its Future still hold true today and were an eerily accurate prediction of where we would end up. Take something as simple as waiting at a traffic light. Even when no one…

    The life of a furry prisoner is pretty ruff. The Delusion of the “Fur Baby” Have you seen someone so delusional they call their purchased companion their “fur baby”? They’re partaking in a system that is, in itself, deeply twisted, but they’ll convince themselves they’ve “rescued” their poor, purebred, deformed new furry pal, all for…

    Western countries are slowly killing themselves in a folie à deux between apologist leaders. They have put us all on the path of self-destruction, exchanging their clean conscience for the slow decay of their own nations. In their attempts to “make up” for their colonial past or the crimes of their countries from a hundred…

    Do You Have a Moment to Talk About Industrial Society and Our Present? It’s hard to talk about Industrial Society and Its Future without sounding like you’re bordering the edge of sanity. Why wouldn’t someone want the perks of modern life? That’s the question most people ask, and honestly, I might not be the best…

    Soon TikTok refugees will need to find a new home, cruelly cast out into the vast, unfeeling wilderness of the world wide web, armed with nothing but their ring lights to fend off the long algorithmic winter night. Many have already sought refuge on the Chinese platform RedNote, a haven where their creative spirits can…
