This is 2026. People cosplaying as things they don’t have the authority, the talent, or the track record to actually be. Just for content.
A mayor playing president. A founder playing operator. A content creator playing one-on-one thinking he’s a pro. A 25yr old with a ring light playing economist. Everyone auditioning. Nobody building.
Were raising a generation that learning the reward isn’t in doing the thing it’s in looking like you did the thing. The clip is the career. The pose is the product. The soundbite is the substitute for a life’s work.
Don't fall for distractions
Hitler was a failed art student and a vegan, and blamed all of his problems on the Jews and rich people. If he was alive today, he would be attending the Democratic Socialists of America conference.
A lot of you saw my video about refrigerators. And a lot of you said we were wrong because "modern fridges don't last as long."

Peter Thiel on psychedelics and why we’ve never been back to the Moon:
“We stopped going to outer space because we started going to inner space.”
“We landed on the Moon in July, 1969.”
“Three weeks later, Woodstock started—and that’s when the hippies took over the country.”
"A guy looked at my airplane the other day and said I wonder how many people I could have fed for the price of that airplane...
I replied I am not sure, it fed a lot of families at the Dassault factory where it was built. I’m sure it fed a bunch of families that rolled the aluminum at the Alcoa factory. It surely fed a lot of people at the Honeywell factory where the experts built the turbines. It fed a whole company for a few weeks when I had them build me a new interior. It feeds the families of the linemen that fuel it.
That’s the difference between capitalism and a welfare mentality. When you buy something, you put money in people's pockets, and give them dignity for their skills.
When you give someone something for nothing, you rob them of their dignity and self worth.
Capitalism is freely giving your money in exchange for something of value.
Socialism is taking your money against your will and shoving something down your throat that you never asked for."
Most of the kids who are attracted to socialism come from wealthy backgrounds, and picked it up while majoring in superfluous Marxism-infected subjects at elite universities that cost more than $50K a year to attend.
Socialism has never and nowhere been a working class movement.
So much of the anti-AI movement is absolutely being driven by China, which wants the U.S. to fall behind.
Hochul should especially be wary of this given that one of her former top aides, Linda Sun, was recently prosecuted for getting paid millions to act as an agent of the CCP.
