A Pessimist’s Day in the Life
I wish I didn't believe the things that Eric Weinstein summarizes here:
NOT ONE of the following is an extraordinary claim:The CIA not only gathers intelligence but kills people, violates rights, gaslights and evades scrutiny and oversight.
The U.S. hides bioweapons programs.
The U.S. engages in regime change through charity and aid programs.
We in the U.S. medically experiment on our own citizens without consent.
We run drugs.
The DOJ and FBI are actively and flagrantly obstructing justice.
Putin easily kills people outside Russia.
We conspire and use academics for sheepskin washing our dirty work.
U.S. newspapers actively avoid reporting stories about which the U.S. population is desperate for information. They also carry extremely non neutral biases.
We actively conspired to hide open and obvious presidential dementia. And by extension, there are massive conspiracies at every level below that one. At a mind boggling level.
Modern Pessimism
Walter Kirn Version of Pessimism:
"People now in that stage of demoralization where they calculate what levels of infrastructure failure they can tolerate given their incomes and life expectancies."
About Our Real Enemies
Brett Weinstein: "Something is at war with us, “us” being regular citizens who want things to work and to be left alone. We’re slow to react because we think in terms of nations. Our enemies are mafias that wear our governments like a cloak to defeat our eyes, and fly our flags to disarm our minds."
