In construction, you cannot repair or replace a structure without first destroying and removing whatever you are repairing or replacing. Donald Rumsfeld once said 'If you have a problem you can't solve, make it bigger.' CBDCs cannot replace the legacy financial system without extant financial systems first being destroyed. The explosion of the US national debt since 2020 dramatically illustrates how the financial system is being destroyed profitably by them that capture the inflation first.

Edit: I didn't even realize that this chart ends at 2020.

I can't even find the chart I saw now.

This same principle is demonstrated in the general destruction of the West, and dilution of the blessings of civilization with derangement and degeneracy. Just as these same mechanisms were used in Weimar Germany to create the Fascist government that followed it, the same process is being used today to do the same thing. This, our present condition, isn't the end. The sausage is still being made. The global technocratic totalitarian tyranny that will follow will be clamored for by the very people afflicting the West with identity politics today. Just as 2+2=4, hard times caused by weak men create hard men, and hard men will do things unthinkable today. We can see it happening in Gaza.

The solution is to not submit to the collective. Independent means are the best definition of wealth, and the only true wealth is freedom. I could not more agree with your discussion of pathology in relation to the institutions seeking our harm. If we are faced with a problem we can't solve, we can't vote harder, rebel, or work from within the institutions to make them just, make the problem bigger. Eliminate participation with those enemies doing you harm. Abandon the institutions that cannot be fixed and let them be destroyed while creating functional society that can replace it after the pathological overlords destroy it.

We're doing this innately, as you state when you point out that people are using other means to get information about the world than the enemedia. When our food, money, homes, and governments are being weaponized against us, we need to do the same thing. Make ones that work.

"Imagine the power you can have if you can make a film and affect culture."

LOL That's what you do. You are the cure for what ails us.

Thanks!
