I hope it's ok if I also share this here in the open forum:
Why are we where we are at the moment? This is what I found yesterday, and it makes a lot of sense to me.
Another very disturbing piece - please watch the video: Silicon Valley's Political Plans
Here's the full video (about 30 minutes)
Short synopsis:
When the video was made, the author (a lady named Joanna Richards, who posts on Youtube under "Blonde Politics") was apologizing for "sounding like a weird conspiracy theorist" in her warning about the worst things that could happen under a dump administration.
Her warning was mainly based on writings by Author Gil Duran, who I have also linked below.
Since we have now seen the first month of the new administration, unfortunately nearly all the things that are described it it, have actually happened.
Yes, in the past,
we already knew that Right-wing Christians want to get
Agenda 2025 implemented, hoping it would lead to a society as depicted in "The Handmaid's Tale".
However,
we smiled at it as we are aware they
only represent a small part of the voting population.
HOWEVER - we should also be aware that there are
Tech Overlords (sorry, but the term "Tech-Bros" is simply not cutting it) who
have their own agenda, which is described in this very important podcast.
Those are (incomplete list):
Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Marc Andreessen, David Sacks, Brian Armstrong
(of course, also Bezos and Zuckerberg, but they - to me - seem less invested in this scheme)
They have
their own target, which is, that - in addition to whatever happens in the rest of America, or the world - they get the permission to
found their own settlements ("City-States led by enlightened tech rulers") that are
not subject to any laws other than their own.
Ideological fathers of this are two "philosophers", Curtis Yarvin and Balaji Srinivasan.
Balaji Srinivasan calls the proponents of these "enlightened tech rulers" the "Grays", in contrast to the "Reds" and "Blues" we already know.
For him, the "Grays" represent the future, the "Blues" represent the current time, and the "Reds" represent the past.
He suggests that the "Greys" should work together closely with the "Reds" to purge the "Blues".
And here is where it gets interesting.
The "Grays"
don't really care much about Project 2025, but they realized that
they share the exact same targets and can work together. Also, Project 2025 already has an established plan and a base of right-wing people who are already vetted and can take over positions in a new administration.
Kevin Roberts, the head of the "
Heritage Foundation" (institution behind "Agenda 2025") famously
promised that the "
Second American Revolution" will be "bloodless - if the left allows it to be".
So they decided to put their money behind it and
install one of their hopefuls, J.D. Vance, as Dump's vice president, and
spend money to get them elected.
(We know what happened then. They were successful.)
Everything else in the video - which was, at the time when it was made, only conjecture and a dire warning -
has since then happened.
That Dump would do his best to
destroy any government institutions,
in whatever way possible, so that
at some point in time, the US would possibly give up and allow them to "secede" on some federal lands of their own.
And all that information was put together in a small, innocuous-looking podcast I stumbled across yesterday in a Facebook post.
What is not mentioned in the podcast, is that there is another actor, who is very interested in the demise of the US - Vladimir Putin.
He certainly shares the same goals as the two entities mentioned earlier, and is fully behind Dump to support them.
