Why did China suddenly stop showing Lionel Messi? After the football legend's World Cup hat trick, Chinese state media reportedly cut coverage, removed his name, and even avoided showing close-up shots during broadcasts. But this story goes far beyond football.

The war in Ukraine is very close to exploding into Europe, including the cities where your kids are taking a semester abroad. No one in the West seems to be paying any attention at all. A warning from Viktor Bout in Moscow.

The Polygamist is dumb, but not in the way you think.

Part of the plotline’s climax is that Jonasi Gomora’s first wife hires a HIV+ woman that she met a few years earlier to infect her serial cheater husband by sleeping with him.

Jonasi subsequently dies because he doesn’t take his HIV meds. The story here is that the woman tasked with passing on the infection still appears healthy between the time she’s infected and when she infects him, which presupposes that she’s on ARVs, yet she’s simultaneously highly infectious enough to infect someone after one encounter.

This storyline is completely detached from scientific reality, perpetuating outdated HIV stigmas and ignores how transmission and treatment actually work.

The reality is that the fundamental principle of HIV is Undetectable = Untransmittable. So if the HIV lady is healthy because she is consistently taking her ARVs, as her health status implies, then her viral load would be undetectable.

In the real world, U=U has proven that a person with an undetectable viral load has ZERO risk of transmitting the virus sexually. By making her healthy yet somehow highly infectious, the show ignores the primary mechanism of how HIV treatment works.

Then there’s just the inefficiency of sexual transmission of HIV.
The chances of a female infecting a male in penile-vaginal intercourse is just 4 out of 10 000 exposures, or a 0.04% chance per act, and that’s assuming the female partner is untreated and has a detectable viral load, which, going by how the show’s plotline treats Jonasi’s progression with the infection, she herself should have been sick and dying by the time she’s approached.

The idea that Jonasi subsequently dies simply because he didn’t take HIV meds implies a rapid progression to AIDS and death, as his twins are barely 3 or 4 years old when he dies, when they must have 2 or so when he got infected. No strain of HIV is this potent.

In the end, the writers sacrificed medical accuracy for dramatic flair, falling back on an old, misogynist trope of the “infectious femme fatale” while completely ignoring the realities of ARVs and transmission statistics.

If the writers wanted to keep the plot point of a highly effective assassination via HIV, shifting to a parenteral route like an infected blood transfusion or an injection would have made the scheme a lot more plausible.

A blood transfusion has an estimated per-act probability of 9250 out of 10 000 exposures.
That is a staggering 92.5% transmission rate from a single event. Compared to the microscopic 0.04% chance of insertive penile-vaginal intercourse.

A contaminated transfusion or heavy blood injection turns the plot from statistically impossible into a near-certainty.

Also, since the show already established that the wife has a corrupt doctor on her payroll, a medical frame-up is a perfect fit. Jonasi gets into a minor accident, or is drugged and admitted to the hospital, the doctor claims he needs a blood transfusion and deliberately uses a contaminated batch🤷🏾‍♂️

The entire thing is a missed opportunity for the writers, who chose to substitute lazy, stigmatising writing for what could have been a tightly plotted thrilling climax.

The most disturbing thing about The Polygamist isn't Jonasi.

It's the fact that a writer sat down, imagined all this wickedness, wrote it down, another person approved it, actors memorized it, producers funded it, Netflix bought it, and not one person along the way said:

"Guys, this is getting a bit concerning."
😭

Klaus Schwab’s chief WEF advisor, Dr. Yuval Noah Harari: "To DOMINATE humanity on a massive scale, all you need is a coordinated cabal of elites feeding the world the SAME made-up stories — total fictions designed for CONTROL!"

These godless technocrats are rubbing our noses in their evil plan with zero shame, openly boasting they can hack millions of minds with data.

After interviewing dozens of leading AI experts and reading hundreds of books, these 4 books stood out as the most important for the AI-age. If you truly understand their insights, not only will you survive this revolution, you will thrive.

1. Max Weber’s Protestant Ethic
2. Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics
3. Rene Girard’s Deceit Desire and the Novel
4. Jeff Kripal’s Secret Body

People today are mostly worried about AI taking their job or the bubble bursting, but Weber’s Protestant Ethic is going to show you the problem is much greater. The right comparison isn't the dotcom bubble or 2008. It’s Darwin which shook the faith of an entire civilization or the industrial revolution which required two world wars to sort out. That's the scale of the AI challenge and Weber’s text helps put that in view.

The next 3 books will teach you where to spend your time now in order to thrive in this radically new world order. I've already made major life decisions based on their insights to AI-proof my life and career. Why should we go looking for guidance in “outdated” works of philosophy? Because we need to rethink everything from the ground up from first principles. And if you are just stuck on learning how to prompt engineer or following the latest fads on X you are underestimating the size of the earthquake that is about to hit us by magnitudes.

These are the crucial insights each of these 4 texts have to offer us in the AI age…
