I love it when Cocaine Curtis does an entry.

> the primary effect of the Insurrection was to hugely wound the dignity of the System. This dignity is no cosmetic nicety; it is crucial to sovereignty. This is why the hornet’s nest is so pissed right now. Don’t get stung

Spot on. Millions of new people just realized that something is possible that used to be impossible. The government is sooooo pissed that so many just saw its little dick.

So here goes:

Pros:

- Red Pill production skyrocketing as Police and Cathedral demonstrate very clearly where their allegiances lie. All know who’s who really. All stand naked. Huge increase in talk about alternative social media platforms.

- inevitable disillusionment that will kick In at some point according to Yarvin

- We see the left’s little penis and laugh

Cons:

- the little penis guy doesn’t like that u saw his little penis and he has guns and the most powerful army the world has known and is a complete sociopath. (I’m picturing Geoffrey Lannister here)

- Geoffrey is going to ruin countless peoples lives and embolden every lower level creep to do the same by censoring and assasinating anyone right of center’s character not to mention likely imprison and encourage violence toward them when they enter the public sphere to dissent.

I’m not seeing how the aforementioned pros come even close to outweighing the certain cons in any timetable one could feel good about here. Still I guess knowing that pros exist is comforting. As shitty as the world is probably gonna be on a lot of levels, there’s nothing saying a person can’t be perfectly happy being disengaged and living in an atrocious political regime. There were happy Soviets right?....Right guys?...guys???

After years of sporadic and at times obsessive "engagement", getting high on the rush of power, vicariously "sticking it to the libs" through Trump, I finally feel free to mentally check out of politics.

One less thing to worry about in life. "Put not your trust in princes." A few minor adjustments in daily life. It's already been years since I could safely go outside wearing a MAGA hat, what's really changed?

Time to sign up for Facebook and post cat videos. Ketman doesn't have to be stressful. Let's all remember to take time for self-care. A warm bubble bath can melt away your worries. And detoxify once a week with organic herbal tea and cranberry juice. Live, laugh, love!

Curtis, I know you want us to just tip over the game board....

But when do we start winning?

Looks like those Urbit planets were a good investment. In all seriousness, now is the time to radically roll back your social media presence if you still have one.

Reminds me of a line from the old X-men cartoon (possibly in one of the print comics as well) where a defiant Apocalypse shouts in response to the futile attacks of the X-men, "I am the rocks of the eternal shore; crash upon me, and be broken!"

The next hit they're gonna take will be the persecution of not only the Trumpites, but every single person who's ever uttered a single critical word about The Party. That could take YEARS, right through 2024, and by then Kamala will be in charge. Talk about a high, baby.....prepare to have. Your. Mind. BLOWN.

I am very much looking forward to your next conversation with Michael Malice. Yarvin and Malice's differences may be more apparent in a post-faux-coup conversation. Opportunities abound, and I, for one, am excited to see what these two princes have to say about it. In any case, masterfully written as always. Keep it coming, my good man. Lord knows we need it now more than ever.
