Tornado Alley (PROG)

thecrusher2011, Let's keep it simple. Just so we know more clearly where you stand.

Do you believe Musk et al have a far-reaching goal in mind? Do you believe they are expressing their truth when they say things like:

· Yarvin: [asked how to change ‘the regime’]: “You have to break it in a single step (…) I would divide the things that are needed, using the rocket analogy, into a first stage and the second stage. The first stage is basically the way in which you establish absolute power.”

· Vance: “I think that what Trump should do, if I was giving him one piece of advice: Fire every single mid-level bureaucrat, every civil servant in the administrative state, replace them with our people. . . And when the courts stop you, stand before the country, and say ‘the chief justice has made his ruling. Now let him enforce it.’” (James Pogue, “Inside the New Right, Where Peter Thiel Is Placing His Biggest Bets,” Vanity Fair, April 20, 2022)

· Balaji Srinivasan: “What I’m really calling for is something like Tech Zionism. A movement supported by a global network to take back territory in the city, floor by floor, street by street, block by block, policeman by policeman. You have a foothold of private property and you have a group membership (…) the hard part is to take control of the streets. How do you fence off of the streets and make it clear that it’s under grey [his self- ascribed tribe of visionaries] control.” (September 2023 on the Moment of Zen podcast)

· Thiel: “I no longer believe that freedom and democracy are compatible.” (“The Education of a Libertarian”, Cato Institute, 2009)

(Noted: In there i have corrected what were seeming inconsequential editing mistakes, left in posting the original.)

That's two yes or no questions for you.

Do YOU accept, or not, their real objectives and beliefs are expressed in those and other quotes, i hope by now you have seen?

That's a 3rd question. Yes or nos should be easy for those.

Leaving aside for now any consideration of what you appear to be focused on, whether or not they will be successful in their quest expressed in the quotes above, would appreciate if you could clarify your position by answering those questions clearly and candidly.

Yes or nos would be good.
