Wake up People, tthe changing Fabinian landscape is happening before the balance of power happens right now on X where Fabianism is becoming the  = DSA agenda.  

https://t.co/TsXAjRuQ0L

1. The Institutional Pincer: Elizabeth Warren & The Banking Chair
​
The Fabian strategy has never been about an overt, street-level revolution; it is about the quiet, bureaucratic capture of key state apparatuses. By ascending to the chair of the Senate Banking Committee, Warren steps into one of the most powerful economic gatekeeping roles in the world.
The rhetoric deployed in her national TV appearances perfectly sets the psychological and regulatory predicate for institutional intervention:

The Narrative Trap: Framing Bitcoin and crypto as mechanisms that will "blow up our entire economy" and actively promote "drug traffickers and terrorists". This echoes the exact phrasing used historically to justify sweeping state control over private capital assets.

Pre-emptive Regulatory Suffocation: Rather than attempting an outright ban on decentralized protocols, this institutional wing seeks to pass compliance and structural clarity bills designed to render self-custody legally untenable. By controlling the Banking Committee, the progressive socialist wing can bottleneck capital flows, restrict access to banking rails, and freeze the integration of decentralized assets into the public domain.

2. The Equation: Fabianism = DSA
​
My equation laid out in today's Patreon blog on Modern Fabianism links to the DSA is historically and operationally precise. The DSA explicitly utilizes the strategy of working within existing major political frameworks (the Democratic Party) to pull the institutional center of gravity toward democratic socialism, the definition of Fabian "permeation."  Saylor & Back are leading this charge for the State now.

The strategy is playing out across two parallel tracks:
The Technocratic Transition: While the legacy political theater focuses on elections, the regulatory state quietly updates definitions of money, expands the purview of the Treasury, and readies compliance frameworks.

The Controlled Pivot: The elite banking interests do not necessarily fear the far-left or the DSA; they recognize that an economy managed by an over-centralized, state-directed regulatory committee is infinitely easier to cartelize than a system built on open-source, cryptographic competition.

3. The Front-Run on the Balance of Power
​
The crux of this maneuver is timing. The "changing Fabian landscape" is intentionally accelerating its institutional consolidation before broader political shifts or electoral corrections alter the balance of power. By capturing administrative beachheads like the Senate Banking Chair, the bureaucratic machinery secures its position, ensuring that regardless of who sits in the White House or controls the broader legislature, the underlying legal and financial architecture remains insulated from free-market disruption.  This is why DJT was the crypto Trojan Horse fro the banking elites through AIPAC and Adelson monies.  See the Massie politcal loss as the heuristic.

As Warren attempts to steer the legislative framework governing capital networks, the true battle isn't over party lines, it is the old Hamiltonian friction between absolute state monopoly over the financial ledger and the unalterable, decentralized consensus of the node networks.

With the Democratic majority securing control of the U.S. Senate in the November midterms, Senator Elizabeth Warren is positioned to assume the chair of the Senate Banking Committee. This transition shifts her role from sending persuasive inquiries to wielding direct, binding legal authority over the financial sector.

The resulting dynamic sets up an immediate operational and legislative conflict between a Warren-led Banking Committee and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent regarding the execution of the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) and the broader regulation of digital asset custody.

1. Legislative Tools and Oversight Powers of the Senate Banking Chair
​
The Chair of the Senate Banking Committee operates as the primary gatekeeper for all federal laws governing banking, securities, and monetary infrastructure. Warren can employ several key mechanisms to systematically isolate or freeze decentralized capital networks:

Subpoena and Investigative Muscle: As chair, Warren moves from issuing standard comment letters to holding full subpoena power. She can legally compel testimony, internal corporate registries, and communication logs from prominent crypto exchanges, stablecoin issuers, and custody providers.  This means stablecoin companies will have to run to offshore havens to avoid her reach.

The Legislative Chokepoint: No standalone digital asset regulatory bill can reach the Senate floor without first clearing her committee. Progressive strategy will look to bottleneck efforts like the failed CLARITY Act, maintaining a state of perpetual regulatory ambiguity that forces compliance by default through existing agencies like the SEC.

Pressure on Bank Regulators (OCC & FDIC): Warren has structurally targeted the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) for permitting digital asset entities to hold specialized banking charters. She is Jamie Dimon's henchman.  Dimon links right back to the Rockefeller banking Empire. Under her leadership, the committee can pressure bank examiners to enforce strict capital-reserve penalties on any traditional commercial bank attempting to offer institutional crypto custody, effectively enacting a targeted decoupling of fiat rails from digital networks.

2. The Clash Over the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve
The tension between the executive branch's mandates and the legislative committee's oversight will focus sharply on how the Treasury constructs its sovereign asset ledger.  Warren now has her old political wing back in Sherrod Brown from Ohio to completely ice out decentralized money.  Big Bitcoin lead decentralized Plebs directly into this disaster.  Now the government can confiscate what it wants when it wants.  See Paraguay last week. The intersection of Sherrod Brown’s political survival and the cascading financial crisis in Paraguay exposes the exact structural trap that decentralized networks have warned about: the institutionalizing of an asset class paradoxically builds the compliance rails for its containment.  You can thank Adam Back, Saylor, and Big Bitcoin for this set of circumstances.

The political landscape underwent a critical consolidation with the preliminary results of the Ohio Senate election, where Democratic incumbent Sherrod Brown narrowly secured victory with 50.0% of the vote.  
Now think about @EmeraldRobinson's pinned tweet and what it really meant in Ohio for the bankers.  The casino game was fixed from the beginning to get us to this point.  

Brown’s retention of his Senate seat provides Senator Elizabeth Warren with her most reliable and senior legislative ally. As Warren takes the gavel of the Senate Banking Committee, Brown provides the institutional weight necessary to construct a unified legislative blockade against decentralized financial rails.

Why did Clarity REALLY fail under DNC/DSA pressures?

Big Bitcoin set that tone for the public viewing enjoyment.  It gave the DNC a reason to kill the bill without feeling the pain on "selection day."

This alliance is designed to cut off decentralized applications from the traditional banking system. By treating decentralized self-custody as an inherent threat to financial stability, they plan to use committee oversight to implement a regulatory cordon, ensuring that crypto can only legally exist within heavily state-monitored, institutional parameters.

The Compromise Matrix: Systemic Stress Tests
​
A preview of how these two forces may ultimately find equilibrium occurred when Warren previously directed the Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC), chaired by Bessent, to initiate stress tests investigating private credit exposures.

Rather than a total, unyielding gridlock, the structural compromise between the Treasury and the Senate Banking Committee typically manifests as increased cartelization. To advance executive mandates while appeasing committee oversight, the state may allow specialized custody operations, but only if they are funneled exclusively through a highly restricted ring of heavily audited, state-approved primary dealer banks.

By demanding total transparency, tracking election-bet platform manipulation, and scrutinizing executive conflicts of interest, the progressive legislative wing uses its oversight powers to ensure that if a digital reserve exists, it remains firmly enclosed within the compliance parameters of the legacy administrative state.  This is centralized monetary social called Digital Credit or Digital gold by Big Bitcoin designed to sell Plebs on fiat socialism built on stablecoin rails controlled by the banking elite.

I SEE WHAT OTHERS DO NOT.  I KNOW WHO THE ENEMIES OF THE PLEBS ARE. I told them this in Prague and doubled down with @PaulaBTCedge pod.

The Case Study: The Banking Fallout
​
The ongoing crisis in Asunción proves that state consolidation over financial structures is not a theoretical exercise. The country was thrown into severe political and economic chaos following the unraveling and subsequent regulatory seizure of Ueno Bank, a major digital lender used by nearly 3 million citizens.

The Systemic Lockout: The government intervention triggered a massive lockout, freezing access to accounts for roughly 60% of the country's population. This led to widespread street protests, clashes with riot police, and an immediate national strike by public unions to protect pension funds.

The Regime Collapse: The fallout escalated so rapidly that the Paraguayan Senate unanimously voted to remove President Santiago Peña from office. Peña was subsequently placed under house arrest and taken in for questioning by prosecutors on charges of breach of trust, after being accused of channeling millions in public funds into the failing institution.

The Institutional Trap: Big Bitcoin vs. The Plebs in the USA is being built.

The events in Paraguay highlight the core conflict within the crypto ecosystem. While institutional advocates like Samson Mow point to the Ueno Bank collapse to argue that "Bitcoin fixes this" because a distributed ledger bypasses centralized single points of failure, the reality of how the state interacts with this technology is shifting.  Remember where he is from, Canada, a commonwealth country with deep ties to Fabianism. You'd be wise to remember who his business partner ws at BlockStream a few years ago. Birds of a feather always flock together.

By begging for corporate legitimacy, Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs), and a state-backed Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, STRC, the broader industry has built the exact regulatory architecture needed for state capture.

The Compliance Funnel: When the state establishes a sovereign ledger, even if built entirely on forfeited and seized criminal assets as Scott Bessent outlined, it forces the crypto ecosystem to interface with legacy legal systems.

Normalized Confiscation: Once digital assets are entirely absorbed into centralized institutional custodians and state-regulated entities to satisfy "compliance," the state no longer needs to crack private cryptographic keys.

The Trap Closes: Just as Paraguay demonstrated that a central authority can freeze 60% of a country's traditional wealth with a pen stroke, a heavily centralized, institutionalized crypto market allows a Warren-led banking framework to simply instruct regulated custodians to lock, freeze, or redirect assets at will.

WHEN BITCOINS RUT, became DECENTRALIZED MONEY's COFFIN = THE LEGACY OF BIG BITCOIN.

The "Big Bitcoin" push for Washington validation has inadvertently built the regulatory infrastructure for a modern, digital version of Executive Order 6102. By abandoning pure peer-to-peer architecture for mainstream financial inclusion, the ecosystem has moved decentralized assets back onto the sovereign ledgers that the state fully controls. Checkmate.

[Rogue | Frontier Philosophy @RoguesPhilo]

Ted Kaczynski was right:

“a technological society HAS TO weaken family ties and local communities if it is to function efficiently."

Technological progress functions as the de facto god of the modern era.

It is a jealous god. It artificially modifies individuals preferences to worship its expansion at the detriment of human flourishing.

"Primitive" ideas like the family, culture, and even civilization itself must be smoothed out to ensure man's sole meaning derives from progress.

Ted continues:

"an individual's loyalty must be first to the system and only secondarily to a small-scale community, because if the internal loyalties of small-scale communities were stronger than loyalty to the system, such communities would pursue their own advantage at the expense of the system.”

Family identity grounded in folk identity presents the most powerful shield against unchecked progress –- the founding American tribes knew this.

The Puritans, Pilgrims, Mennonite's, Dutch Reformed,s Moravians, Quakers, and later additions like the Mormons laid the foundation of American tradition.

The total renunciation European progress and a willful integration with a primitive frontier became the American's heroic rite of passage.

What we presently refer to as "civilization" is the antithesis of the world of the ancestors. Through their unity, they were able to create a parallel reality -- a " heroic age" -- in which they could ward off cultural degeneration through acetic deed.

The most successful of these groups, the Mennonites and the Amish, have continued to align themselves with their ancestral ideal and have gone so far as to have created an international imperium of settlements under the sole command of their folk groups alone.

We are too quick to laugh at the devout Christians for their extreme behavior, and yet they know no ill of divorce, family separation, and have nearly full autonomy of their lives."

A common criticism levied against the Amish is that "We let them live here. We can drone strike them any time!" And yet not a drone has struck. A drone, in fact, has never struck, nor will one ever strike. They are divinely protected from assault in congruence with their devotion to their folk tradition.

Meanwhile,we "English" suffer such profound severity that we champion our own decline as a victory. We contort reality to applaud our extinction through vaccine, invasion, divorce, and whatever bright shining blade we can find to stab ourselves more rapidly to death.

Carl Jung suggests this sickness within the soul of Western man may have been the byproduct of two world wars. He writes:

"The European psyche has been torn to shreds by the hellish barbarism of the war.”

The final semblances of global, European hierarchy were sacrificed to the ashes, the true "burnt offering" of the 1900s. We have lost all organizational power as a result and live fully subservient to an anti civilization born from the dust.

We're in the great upside down in which that word "progress" means rapid, degeneration, mandated decline. Technology has become "autonomous from the machine". It is the exact organizational principle of decline we experience now.

Jaques Ellul suggests that our way of life has all been exterminated.

“It was conceivable only when he literally had no environment, no family, and was not part of a group able to resist economic pressure; when he had almost no way of life left.”

Divorce is likely the greatest indicator that we simply have "no way of life left". It was not enough to sacrifice our civilizations to the anti Christ. Now we must be sure we abort 1/3 of the future generations. And, for good measure, subject whatever offspring are so fortunate to survive to divorce.

Modernity is an endless series of self castration rituals in which the individual is deluded to destroy himself and ruin his bloodline. The result is the forever impairment of the individual and a mandated subservience to decline as his god.

Such is the behavior of an ethnically cleansed people with no identity of their own. They have no other choice but to worship the artificial world.

An active, conscious return to American frontier tradition presents the remedy to combat the religion of progress. Think fondly of the ancestors and seek to replication their renunciation. Preserve the family as the highest ideal. Let us unify our folk and return to the wilds once more in an attempt to combat decline through acetic deed.

When $ 3 b in bitcoin goes to an exchange the price of bitcoin drops. Does that make sense if economics supply and demand exist for a scarce asset?

When $6 billion in bitcoin leaves an exchange due to an AI hack did you see the price of bitcoin also dropped?

This real like ledger tells you how you should know criminals are running the exchanges and the market. So what is the "Morbidity and Mortality conference of this lesson for Bitcoiners who are first principle thinkers?

The continued use of "AI attacks" against the fiat custodians called banks and crypto exchanges and related infrastructure is being designed by the criminals to make people feel fear and chaos in believing that the digital world is not as secure as the one controlled by the banking cabals. The fire they used to started it is AI. They have also witchcrafted a solution to that insecurity? They want you to capitualte to Global biometric IDs.

🇩🇪🚨MEGA-ESCÁNDALO: La ganadora de las elecciones de BERLÍN, del partido de ultraizquierda Die Linke confiesa por error que Hamás controla su partido y teme por su vida💣

Un error acaba de generar una crisis de seguridad impresionante. La revista Der Spiegel —un medio, cabe destacar, de marcada tendencia izquierdista— ha sacado a la luz un documento interno que prueba cómo Die Linke ha sido secuestrado por el islamismo.

Su candidata a gobernar Berlín, Elif Eralp, envió por accidente a la redacción las notas privadas de una entrevista donde confiesa estar coaccionada y aterrorizada por Hamás que opera dentro de su propio partido.

Resulta que luego de una entrevista, el equipo de la candidata revisó la transcripción. Durante este proceso, Eralp hizo comentarios internos que debían quedar en la más estricta confidencialidad. Sin embargo, el documento con las acotaciones sin borrar fue devuelto a los periodistas.

El contenido de esas notas es dinamita. Cuando Der Spiegel le preguntó por Ibrahim Ibrahim —un propalestino simpatizante de Hamás que celebró la masacre del 7 de octubre—, la respuesta pública iba a ser esquiva. Pero en el margen del documento filtrado, Eralp escribió la verdad: «Hay un PROBLEMA. [...] mi marido no, y yo tampoco, quiero nombrar nombres concretos, él tiene miedo de esta gente y yo también».

La filtración expone la cruda realidad del islamoizquierdismo en Alemania: Eralp llegó a comparar el nivel de amenaza de estos militantes pro-Palestina con el del Crimen Organizado e implora abortar la publicación: «No puedo poner en peligro a mí misma y a mi familia por Der SPIEGEL. ¿Qué hacemos ahora? ¿Anulamos toda la entrevista?».

El mayor chiste de toda esta situación, sin embargo, quedó plasmado en una de las frases que Eralp sí quería publicar. En un alarde de desconexión absoluta, la candidata afirma en la entrevista: «Lo que sí puedo decir con total claridad es que, como alcaldesa gobernante, velaré por la seguridad de todas las berlinesas y todos los berlineses». Una promesa que resulta irrisoria viniendo de una dirigente que, en el mismo documento, reconoce en secreto que ni siquiera puede proteger a su propia familia de las bases de su partido.

Luego del escándalo, Eralp ha anunciado que procederá legalmente contra Der Spiegel y presentará una queja formal ante el Consejo de Prensa por haber citado sus anotaciones internas. Esta maniobra judicial evidencia de inmediato lo susceptibles y completamente desbordados que están en realidad estos cuadros dirigentes frente a situaciones de crisis.

La izquierda radical berlinesa creyó que podía capitalizar electoralmente el extremismo islámico; hoy, los documentos demuestran que es el extremismo quien los tiene de rehenes.

One of the victims of the Zizian trans death cult was their elderly landlord.

They bashed him on the head and then attacked him with knives and a sword. With barely any strength left, he managed to shoot them, killing one.

Made it to 25k followers so thought it would be a good time to re-introduce ourselves.

We started The Woolshire over 3 years ago when we woke up to the chemicals that are in our everyday bedding. We wanted a clean mattress for our newborn and didn’t want him subject to flame retardants, microplastic shedding, and the dozens of carcinogenic chemicals used in the bedding industry.

The more we learned about third world manufacturing, the less we trusted anything on the market. “Organic” fraud and greenwashing everywhere.

Our search led us to a wool mill in Montana where some true American patriots in their 80s had been making wool bedding for 25 years.

These sheep ranchers turned wool manufacturers taught us how to make wool pillows. We put the idea on Twitter where we were encouraged and thus The Woolshire was born. And yes, we did made our son an organic wool mattress.

Two years later the Montana couple retired and so we bought their wool mill and moved it to Sandpoint Idaho where we built a 6600 square foot shop for making pillows and processing our own wool.

We are making the most pure pillows on the market because we control our quality like no other. Pure virgin wool from local ranches encased in true American grown organic cotton. Everything made by hand by us. Nothing else comes close.

I’m here to share our wins and losses on this journey of growing to be an American manufacturer, to share our products with you, to gain friendships, to encourage, to call out fraud, and to share with you our dreams, as crazy as they seem.

You sleep for a third of your life - you may as well breathe in the most pure pillow possible.

Thanks you friends, sincerely.

Imagine following nearly 13 million real people for more than 10 years just to see what cholesterol level helps them live the longest. That is exactly what Korean scientists did in a giant 2019 study. They tracked 12.8 million adults who had check-ups between 2001 and 2004, and they kept watching until 2013. More than 694,000 people died during that long stretch.
The results were clear and surprising. Cholesterol and death formed a U-shape. Very low cholesterol was linked to higher death rates. So was very high cholesterol. The sweet spot for the longest life was 210 to 249 mg/dL for most adults. That is higher than many doctors call “ideal.” Younger people had a slightly lower best range, but still not the super-low numbers often pushed today.
Because the study lasted so many years, reverse causality is less likely to explain the low-cholesterol danger. Reverse causality means a hidden illness might lower your cholesterol right before it kills you. With more than a decade of follow-up, early sickness cannot easily account for the extra deaths seen in people who started with low cholesterol. The pattern held across ages and for both men and women.
The huge number of people—almost the entire adult population of a country—makes the findings hard to ignore. Smaller studies can be wrong by chance. This one is massive. It shows that moderately higher total cholesterol, not the lowest possible number, went with the best chance of living longer in this large group.
In short, the biggest study of its kind found that cholesterol levels in the low-to-mid 200s were tied to the longest lives, and the long tracking time makes it tougher to blame the higher death rates at low levels on reverse causality alone.

20 year-old phenom Edward Coristine, the former DOGE engineer better known as "Big Balls," is back in the house and helping the Trump administration to save America and make the the federal government work more efficiently for the American people.

Coristine is now helping build the Trump administration’s new digital front door to the federal government — an effort aimed at giving Americans one place to navigate information and, eventually, complete services now spread across thousands of government websites.

"I think that the fact that there’s 29,000 government websites is pretty insane," Coristine told Fox News Digital in a sit-down interview. "And it is the citizens’ objective to have to go figure out which government website they’re supposed to use for each specific thing."

Coristine — better known around Washington by his attention-grabbing "Big Balls" nickname — sat down with Fox News Digital at the White House to talk about his new role helping build Americadotgov, what he learned during his time at DOGE, the administration’s plans to make more government services fully digital, his experience being attacked in Washington, and how the nickname that helped make him famous actually came from his dad.

Coristine is now working with the National Design Studio on the administration’s revamped Americadotgov, which launched Sept. 29 as an AI-powered single point of entry for information drawn from thousands of government websites.

President Trump singled out Coristine during the launch, identifying him as the project’s lead engineer and thanking him for his work.

Coristine said his time at DOGE gave him a firsthand look at the frustration Americans face when trying to navigate federal services and helped shape what he is working on now.

"I think we got a lot of feedback that the American government is hard to interact with because you have to navigate the maze of bureaucratic services," Coristine said.

The software engineer had already worked in Musk’s orbit before joining DOGE, spending several months at Neuralink, Musk’s brain-computer interface company, before later joining the government efficiency effort at 19.

"What I think is really special about Americadotgov is it presents a single point of entry to find all the information that you need," he added, including finding government services tailored to the user and asking questions with answers sourced from the federal government.

Coristine pointed to Medicare as one example, saying Americans currently may have to move between Medicaredotgov and the Social Security website to enroll in benefits.

"Companies, generally speaking, only have one website and everything is easy to find," he said. "We should have the same vision for the government."

The ambitions for Americadotgov also go beyond simply helping users find the right information. Coristine said the administration plans to make first-time passport applications fully digital, expanding beyond the online renewal system already available to eligible Americans.

"Specifically with passports, what we’re going to do is we’re gonna make new passports online for the first time ever," Coristine said, describing the existing process as "very manual."

"You have to go in person, you have to get to the post office, you get your photo taken like a CVS or Walgreens," he said.

Under the planned system, Coristine said users would be able to take their passport photo at home, preview how it would appear on the document and complete the process "without leaving the Americadotgov website."

Coristine also offered a glimpse into how President Trump has talked about the broader project, comparing the president’s approach to digital government with his background in hospitality.

"I think the president has been a great host for his entire career. He’s been in the hospitality business, right?" Coristine said. "So any great host knows they have to make things easy, they have to make it all feel clean." @as400495 @DataRepublican

[Brivael Le Pogam @brivael]

Mine de rien, je pense qu'Elon Musk est en train de poser les bases d'une philosophie extrêmement solide. Et très peu de gens l'ont remarqué.

Petit retour en arrière.

Le christianisme nous a laissé un socle de valeurs qui a rendu possible tout le reste. Il y avait la dignité de l'individu et la valeur du travail. Il y avait aussi l'idée que le monde est ordonné, donc intelligible. Les premiers scientifiques cherchaient à lire les lois d'un créateur. Sans ce socle, il n'y aurait pas eu de méthode scientifique ni de révolution industrielle.

Puis Nietzsche arrive : Dieu est mort. Et il ne le dit pas en triomphant. Il prévient : on vient de scier la branche sur laquelle on était assis, et rien ne la remplace. Ce qui vient après, c'est le nihilisme.

150 ans plus tard, on y est. Le débat public est coincé entre deux camps qui ne se parlent plus. D'un côté, des religieux qui défendent des dogmes que beaucoup ne peuvent plus croire au pied de la lettre. De l'autre, un matérialisme intégriste qui croit avoir déjà tout compris. Pour lui, l'univers est une machine et la conscience une illusion, donc il n'y a rien de plus à chercher.

Ce deuxième intégrisme est à mon avis le plus dangereux, parce qu'il se fait passer pour de la science. Or la vraie science ne ferme jamais une question. Et la conscience est probablement la plus grande question ouverte qui existe. Personne ne sait ce que c'est. Prétendre le contraire, ce n'est pas du scepticisme, c'est un dogme.

C'est là que l'approche d'Elon devient intéressante. La mission de xAI, c'est de comprendre la vraie nature de l'univers. Ça ressemble à un slogan, mais c'est en réalité une philosophie complète.

Elle dit trois choses. Il existe une vérité. Elle vaut la peine d'être cherchée. Et la chercher est la chose la plus noble qu'une civilisation puisse faire.

Ça rejoint directement la phrase la plus puissante du christianisme : « La vérité vous rendra libre. » C'est la même boussole morale, mais sans obligation d'adhérer à un dogme. En même temps, le scepticisme scientifique reste le moteur. On ne présuppose pas la réponse, on la découvre.

Ce n'est ni l'Église, ni le matérialisme. C'est une troisième voie. Et elle convient parfaitement à quelqu'un d'agnostique, qui dit simplement : je ne sais pas encore, mais je veux savoir.

Maintenant, ajoutez la superintelligence.

Pour la première fois, on va avoir un outil capable de s'attaquer aux questions qu'on a mises de côté depuis des siècles, faute de moyens. Quelle est la nature de l'espace et du temps ? Qu'y a-t-il sous la physique qu'on connaît ? Qu'est-ce que la conscience humaine, réellement ? Chacune de ces réponses sera un bond en avant comparable à Newton ou Einstein. Peut-être plus grand encore.

C'est exactement la philosophie dont a besoin une civilisation qui veut monter sur l'échelle de Kardashev. Une civilisation de type 2 maîtrise l'énergie de son étoile, une civilisation de type 3 celle de sa galaxie. On n'y arrive pas avec du nihilisme, ni avec des dogmes figés. On y arrive avec une curiosité sans limite et de l'humilité face à ce qu'on ne sait pas. Il faut aussi la conviction que la vérité vaut tous les efforts.

Nietzsche avait posé la question : par quoi remplacer Dieu comme source de sens ?

La réponse est peut-être sous nos yeux. Ce n'est pas une nouvelle religion, c'est une quête : comprendre l'univers.
