It’s Easier To Imagine The End Times Than The Demise of U.S. Hegemony
The following was inspired by the following post: “Israel’s Path of Peril” Simplicius on Substack Aug 26, 2024
Many lines of evidence across domains indicate that civilization may go the way of Rhodesia by 20__ whatever. One’s faith that DJT has the wherewithal to save anything is wildly misplaced. He’s a simple guy influenced by the windbags of the usual crap we’ve been watching for decades. Regardless of what administration occupies Washington D.C. in 2025, there is no reason to believe that the United States will propagate anything but business as usual. The “leaders” there are all indoctrinated with the neocon/neoliberal/neo-whatever ideology and are true believers in growth beyond all natural limits. In addition, Uncle Sam’s answer to competition is always the Military Industrial Complex. China is competitive, so it must be destroyed. Uncle Sam is a deluded psychopath who believes that a world devoid of U.S. hegemony is a world pining for The End of Days. It’s Biblical! U.S. leaders believe that if they can’t run the show, it’s time for God to wipe the slate clean. Bring on the mother F’ing flood and to hell with biodiversity or diversity of any kind; this time, the Ark will be a gated community of Tech Optimists on servers on the dark side of the moon while the Godly bunch floats up to their heavenly rewards with their particular Prophet.
We are looking at the death of civilization as we know it and come what may.
Believing feels better than doubting, so the plebs and proles will rearrange deck chairs and party until panic sets in, and then, well, you know, things will get truly horrific.
For now, folks can watch the shyte show on the Web and Tubes and pretend everything is fine. Go Elon, Kamala, Trump, Putin, Bibi…WTF ever! It feels great to cheer on “the good guys,” doesn’t it?
Do “THE BRICS” have a radically different view of how to preserve modern, technological, fossil-fuelled, global financialized capitalism with BRICS characteristics? A multi-polar world is THE simple answer.

Aleksandr could you please come home
Things are looking bad
I know you would be mad
To see what kind of men
Prevail upon the land you love
The World’s wondering
How we got here
Alexander, all we get are lies
We’re gettin’ safer cars
Rocket ships to Mars
From men who’d sell us out
To get themselves a piece of power
We’d love to hear you speak your mind
In plain and simple ways
Call a spade a spade
Like you did back in the day
You would play piano
Each morning walk a mile
Speak of what was going down
Each honesty and style
The World is a calling
Alexander Dugen
Alexander you know what to do
The World is turnin’ round and losin’ lots of ground
Oh Alexander is there something we can do to save the land we love
Oh, woah woah woah
The World is a calling
Alexander Dugen
Alexander, you know what to do
The World is turnin’ round
And losin’ lots of ground
So Aleksandr is there something we can do to save the World we love
Oh
Aleksandr is there something we can do to save the World we love
Alexander
Alexander, is there something we can do to save the land we love
Thanks so much, Aleksandr Dugin. Don’t make me laugh.
We are in this idiotic spiral known as: “Things aren’t bad enough in the Global North or “The West” for anyone to care.
Taylor Swift, the NFL, Aussie Rules, UFC, Football Clubs, Streaming Platforms, Recreational Drugs, Guns, Tactical Shyte, “intellectual” Influencers, Religion, Aliens, Flat Earthers, Border Walls, Police, Cloud Capital, Gig Economy Gigs, Subscriptions, Rent-a-Capsule Homes, and micro-dosing psychedelics, etc. are good enough for now.
So we will enjoy the show, share our opinions, and “have the conversation” until the proverbial SHYTE HITS THE FAN. Then we’ll know for sure what passes the smell test.
For most of us, the modern World is a black box, and for the tiny minority of people who have some idea of how things work, we lack the right stuff to pressure our leaders into doing something else. And one thing is sure: our private and public leaders can no more be persuaded by smartasses (evidence, science, experts, etc.) than a cult member can be convinced that their “leader” is a con artist. The ignorati is stubborn as hell. Believing is much easier than learning about something unfamiliar. Learning requires hard work, while belief is a comfortable nap on the sofa wrapped in one’s favorite blanket.
Keep the faith, and remember to monetize it.
