Substack is Dead. I'm Done

Also, a few notes on Project 2025 and the Election

Alright beautiful people, I’m back.

Look, I get it.

I’ve been gone for two weeks and you may be under the impression that I’ve just been slacking off with a lack of Substack and Medium content.

You might have imagined that I’ve been hiking the islands of Santorini, Greece, taking Mexican cruises, and exploring New York City as I am now.

And.. well, I suppose you would be right.

But really, I've been buried filming for 99Bitcoins, a YouTube channel with 700k subs. The current content is trash. Shit, actually. That’s why I was recently hired.

Will I get fired for saying that? Eh, who cares!

But my video producer and I have shot top-tier political journalism and crypto content, which is very similar to what we do here.

I’ll keep you updated on it —you’re gonna love it.

Normal schedules Substack and Medium-wise going forward!

Now, I want to give you my reaction to the 2024 Presidential debates because it seems everyone is talking about them…

My Reaction to the 2024 Debates Is… A Reminder That Politics is For Losers

Okay, so you’re on Earth for a certain amount of time and these are the people you’re investing in? Politicians. WTF is wrong with you? Whether you’re on the Right or Left—except for Thomas Massie—politics is for losers.

Haven't we explained that by now?

Trump is better than Biden, yes. This is obvious from a brain cell standpoint.

Biden shit the bed at the CNN debate, but I’ll give him this: he was better than I imagined. He didn’t collapse like Roger Sterling from Mad Men.

But an opinion I have higher than that is I don’t care.

“If all your beliefs line up into one political party, you’re not a clear thinker. If all your beliefs are the same as your neighbors and your friends you’re not a clear thinker.”

— Naval Ravikant

The problem with my generation is we’re taught that it’s important to have views but not important to know what we’re talking about.

I realize this is most of America, actually.

It’s like every day people start from ZERO in this country.

Covid lockdowns, what was that? Gaslighting after 9/11 into multiple wars, when? Epstein? Who was that again?

If the last eight years have taught us anything, like the final passages of The Great Gatsby, it’s that, like Boats against the current, the political deep state beats on.

You’re already a cut above the rest if you read this blog. When I say “deep state,” it isn’t a conspiracy theory. It’s a term that Canadian Diplomat Peter Dale Scott invented to refer to permanent bureaucracy.

Things like this will not end no matter who takes office in November:

• The Military Industrial Complex (Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, General Dynamics - all investable on the stock market by the way!)

• CIA, FBI, and NSA - who have knowingly killed democratically elected leaders like Patrice Lumumba of the Congo

• The Fed - who printed 50 percent of all US dollars in existence this decade

• No-term-limit senators - risk-aversion is so popular because senators have nothing to lose.

• Big Pharma/Fast Food - Fuck Fauci. That is all.

• Lobbying - Fuck Fauci, again.

• The People Who Were On Epstein Island (self-explanatory)

Trump is way better than Biden in terms of foreign and economic policy. Hopefully, if elected, we can end all these fucking wars.

But things only incrementally change between presidents.

That’s all I’ve ever seen. Democrats panicked over Trump; Republicans panicked over Obama. Bush got us into a war; Clinton got us into a war.

I’ll give Donald Trump this: he was the first president in modern history not to start a new war. Yet, a second Trump presidency will probably have less effect on my life and yours than anything I could do on my own.

Escapism is not self-improvement.

Why Is Everything About Politics Now? (Final Thought)

Isaiah, you’re rolling over.

You’re letting the elites win.

You’re letting Biden win.

Personally, I’d vote for RFK Jr., but he doesn’t have much shot. My real question is at what point did politics become this shitflinging loserfest commandeered by terminally online losers?

Rarely any real current issues are being discussed, here, outside, or in politics. It's all ideology this ideology that with NO plan for function. Much of the political writing on Substack and at large is like WWE, meant to distract you from the core problems that outlast presidents.

Political philosopher Curtis Yarvin is one of the only people I see write about this.

The country won’t change incrementally.

You can disagree with Yarvin’s solutions, but his diagnosis is right.

That’s why I have two solutions:

1. Focus on the big picture, ignore the loud mouth vitriolic pundits, and vote on local issues you think are important (guns, abortion, foreign policy)

2. Focus on your own life.

Lastly, I’ve seen something going around called “Project 2025.”

Democrat voters, or let me rephrase that, psychotic democrat voters, think that if Trump wins in 2024, he’ll never leave office under this conspiracy called “Project 2025.” It’ll be Trump, then Trump Jr., and then AI Trump for 200 years.

God, that would be so funny.

It won’t happen.

I’d imagine no one on the right or even the far right has hope in things dramatically improving with Trump. Yet liberals talk about Project 2025 as if Trump is giving hidden nazi turbo Hitler 2.0 speeches in beerhalls.

Project 2025 documents are here if you’re interested; Trump’s likely in the dark about them—just another reason to tune out mainstream politics.

One last point: Since most countries adopted the English two-party political system, the status quo can only stagnate and perpetuate. The two parties act as ideology magnets, attracting support from those who imagine reshaping the world as 6-year-old children.

Be above it. Focus on important shit like grilled cheese or learning a new trick on your skateboard.
