@DaveHcontrarian Hi David. I moved my 401K into a E*Trade 401 what is the symbol to get the most benefit from the S&P ride up? Thanks I have been following for a while.
Yeah, I don’t want to hear a word about decorum from the right.
The only difference? Biden masterfully handled the clowns interrupting him—while Trump needed little Johnson to step in and save him.
"This isn't a battle we chose. But in this new world of technological dominance, only two outcomes exist: either we control technology, or it controls us. The window for influence is closing rapidly, but it hasn't shut completely.
I hope deeply that this analysis is wrong. That the pattern I see is an overreaction, an exaggerated interpretation of coincidences. Because if it's right, we're witnessing the most sophisticated coup in human history – one that uses our desire for change to eliminate the very possibility of freedom.
Yet even within this dark analysis, I see potential for optimism. The same technologies being used to build control systems could be redirected toward liberation. The energy for change could be channeled toward genuine reform rather than disguised oppression.
The question isn't whether to embrace technological progress – it's how to ensure this progress serves humanity rather than subjugates it. We still have a chance to influence this direction, but that chance diminishes with each passing day.
This is not a battle between right and left, between establishment and outsiders, or even between democracy and authoritarianism. This is a battle over the very definition of human freedom in the technological era.
The time to influence this definition is rapidly running out."
This is a must read. It perfectly outlines the false binary we are facing and how people are being led to follow Musk, Thiel and Trump. Not necessarily new to many of us, but written and organized very well.
