Magnificent explanation of what is going on using professional wrestling as a comparison. Compares professional wrestling to intelligence agencies.

Our political establishment is like professional wrestling. The outcomes are predetermined- the opponents will have a beer together after the “show”.

Eric Weinstein did a great interview and explanation on the Jeffrey Epstein story.

He's spot on about the LARPing stuff, and it seems the adults are no where near to be found.

It was an okay interview, but with all due respect it's not "larping" if the people doing it have a budget and security clearance. We already have a word for that: propaganda. The issue with American politics is that the media now defines political reality working hand in hand with our security state. The government itself might as well not exist for all intents and purposes and more or less functions as a political misdirection or firewall. Everything gets done via crises-solution/action-reaction media scripting and government fiat. This fact was completely on display in the election.

I also disagree completely with this notion that Trumpism lacks an intellectual foundation. Read the Constitution.

I tried to watch, but just saw a bunch of high school kids yapping. Is that who you guys consider "adults"?
