We have "cartesian blinders being put on us so that we are trying to make sense out of scraps of information and hints." - @bretweinstein

WEINSTEIN: I mean, even if you have your villains who are engaged in the behavior that motivated this war in Iran, even if that's the story, presumably most of the people in the path of these ferocious bombings that he is describing are not deserving of going back to the Stone Age.

In fact, I distinctly remember him telling us that part of what we were up to was liberating the people of Iran from their tyrannical regime.

So if it's the tyrannical regime that justifies the ferocious bombing, then it's a tragedy that other people are going to be sent back to the Stone Ages with them. Right?

HEYING: It's it's not a narrative. It's an incoherent set of talking points.

WEINSTEIN: Yeah, it's a kind of cheerleading that is completely inappropriate from the perspective of the president.

Bret Weinstein discusses the Trump administrations "back to the stone age" recent remarks in the latest episode of The Evolutionary Lens, Episode 320 "Are we back in the stone age?" on DarkHorse.

Bret Weinstein explains, "If you stop businesses from starting here, and if you drive people so that they move elsewhere—even though it's difficult to do—then the point is the tax base dries up, which then forces you to become even more predatory for the people who stayed.

And that's really the thing, right? They're setting themselves up so that they have to go after more and more people, because the people who are starting new businesses are not going to do it here."

Spoiler: It's Communism.

Remember a few years ago when we were all arguing "does this whole left-right spectrum even mean anything?" bc conservatives were just as up in arms about Trump as liberals, and yet Trump was so popular on "the right," so other than leaping to "fascists," one had to question, what exactly is "right wing?"

Strongly recommend you read Curtis Yarvin/Mencious Moldbug/Neo-Reactionary theory to get the big picture, but Michael Malice will tell you, short and sweet: Conservativism is just Progressivism driving the speed limit. True, but you may be asking, "In what universe?" People loosely recalled it was noted in the first French democratic parliament that liberals sat on the left, "conservatives" on the right. What was less noted was that specifically, those on the right... were kinda happy with the king and generally accepted the previous status quo, while acknowledging its issues. They wanted as little to change as possible, and would've been ...

Am I the only one who thinks this about Trump's recent GAFFE?

The other day Trump says something like, we need to end the war because we are REALLY getting dangerously low on oil, and WE only have enough for four more weeks. I thought, geeeeez that's kind of strange to tell your advisory that they almost destroyed you and that closing the straight of Hormuz has seriously weakened you.

Now today, the news is all about how the talks are falling apart, and when Monday rolls around, the markets could tank like never before. I sold off 80% of my investments on Thursday, today I am able to breathe a sigh of relief knowing how crazy I would be feeling right now.

I hope there are others who saw Trump showing his hand, as a bad play, a REAL BAD PLAY!!!

Or,,, Or was this the plan all along; Sabotage the peace talks and turn Iran into dust? When Iran goes BOOM, IRAN will send their nukes to Israel. That's just how I see this unfolding, anyone else notice Trumps comments on Wednesday?
