Rogan talks about all the fraud and waste that “Elon’s 6 Wizards” have found

It was great talking with @Guy Swann and my boyz from @Bitcoin Veterans Guy has been an awesome dude to talk with. His heart is really in the right place and he really is the dude you think he is. I’m really stoked to have Guy as a friend and a brother in the fight against tyranny. I’ll see you boyz in the trenches!! https://fountain.fm/episode/rS01b2N1DK8yxmrv5wqa

So Trump selects the guy who supports the government’s ability to spy on American citizens to head the CIA… using the same process that allowed the Deep State to spy on his campaign and frame him for conspiring with a hostile foreign adversary?! “The incoming CIA director is a supporter of sweeping government surveillance powers as he lobbied for the extension of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), a law that allows the government to spy on American citizens without a warrant.” - Dave DeCamp

The Roman Empire attempted to incorporate all the Gods of the people it conquered, so as to bring them into the cultural fold. By prioritizing and accepting everything, the destroyed the culture that made them exceptional. The American Empire has done the same thing and it will end the same way; by barbarians picking apart the useful scraps of the Empire and forging new nations from its carcass. View quoted note →

38th book of 2024 complete: Becoming A Barbarian by Jack Donovan Second time reading this book as well. This 3-part series should be read every year and could really be made into one book. But Becoming A Barbarian really gets into how you tap into tribalism and head down the path of The Way of Men. The most poignant take away is how “The Empire of Nothing” pushes universal moralism to the point of accepting anything and anyone, at the expense of everyone’s individuality and common sense. If you prioritize everything, you’ve prioritized nothing.

31st book of 2024 complete: Civilian Warriors by Erik Prince I finished this a couple weeks ago but I wanted to finish the Tucker Carlson interview of Prince first While I can’t rule out that the book was written for damage control and to reshape the image and narrative around Backwater and Prince, the USG propaganda machine was certainly directed at conservative organizations at this time. And while I use to think the contractors were exorbitantly paid, Prince does an excellent job of pointing out how US Service Members are paid through benefits that far exceed their salaries. The fact is, for the Lizard class who wants the US continually engaged in conflicts around the world while the Federal deficit is spiraling out of control, this business model is the only way to make it happen. Ironically, they should be praising Prince for showing them how it should be done. Luckily for the Freedom Fighters, he seems to be out of that game. Although the CIA connections are still something to remain vigilant about. I’d recommend reading this book for a better understanding of PMCs, government propaganda and tactics against political opponents, and some insight in to ways future wars might be funded and conducted.

30th book of 2024 complete: I came into this book cautiously, not sure if it was a hit piece being waged against America’s warriors or a well researched and thorough piece of actual journalism. While I’m still waiting to hear back from a Navy Seal buddy to get his take, I believe this is an accurate and well researched book. HOWEVER, most of the acts described in the book, while awful, I don’t believe to be unique to Seal Team 6. Over 20+ years of the Forever Wars similar and worst acts have been committed across units of all types. They are always the exception to the rule of the American Warrior’s ethos and unless you’ve experienced combat and understand the monster that lives in all of us, it is difficult to understand the fine line between lethally trained strategically employed violence and psychopathic murderers. Certainly this book points out the failures of officers up and down the chain of command as well as civilian leaders who are suppose to provide oversight. Unless we, the American People, demand change and accountability while maintaining an understanding of what our nations Warriors are being asked to do, we won’t become a more moral society.

25th book of 2024 complete: The Dictators Handbook by Bruce Bueno De Mesquita and Alastair Smith The thesis is great: rulers hold on to power by following key rules, namely, benefiting their essential supports, those people in their society whose support is needed to gain and maintain power The flaw to the book, however, is a general belief that democratic rulers are better than autocratic rulers because they must appeal to a larger essential supporter base. While they point out how democratic governments can be corrupt and break rules, they try to make it seem like that’s atypical and those rulers are often thrown out easily by the electorate. They also point out how autocratic rulers often have sham elections. As if to believe that democratic system’s elections aren’t rigged simply by providing false choices. Without realizing where the true power lies in American society, they fail to properly identify the actual essential supporters. Corporations like the MMIC (Medical and Military Industrial Complex) who control so much of the politics and the media, are no different than essential supporters in an autocracy who provide political support to rulers and propaganda. Just because it’s a more advanced form of manipulation, they seem to be tricked into believing that it’s all about democracy and the people’s will. I would only recommend this book for two reason: 1) I believe the thesis is accurate 2) I would like to see more people give their own analysis of this book If you have to will read, please provide your feedback

24th book of 2024 complete: One Second After by William R Forstchen is about the aftermath of an EMP attack on the United States An Electro Magnetic Pulse attack is the ultimate asymmetric attack. If successful, it would leave the entire country cut off from power, transportation, logistical resupply, and so much more. Would you and your community be prepared to go without power, refrigeration, heat, cars, the grocery store, medicine? Our interconnected and global society is heavily reliant on these systems that are extremely vulnerable. The government’s response is always to throw cash at a problem AFTER the crisis. But one second after the attack will be too late. Our only hope is to ensure we’re prepared individually and do what we can to help our local communities prepare.

Backcountry camping in Denali National Park in Alaska Saw caribous, had a way to close encounter with a grizzly, and saw some of the most beautiful untouched land on the planet In 6 million acres we were 2 of maybe 30-40 people, everyone else being in vehicles along the one road in the park Already can’t wait or do it again!! https://blob.satellite.earth/6c543d94ed9c1bbdb1efa3276ae423257400210104550d09b78e24214eddec5a

“The good guys are never the ones who suppress free speech. The good guys are never the ones who confuse definitions.” - @Brian De Mint, @knutsvanholm, @Daniel Prince I was thinking about this while reading previous chapters. You never hear an Austrian or a Libertarian say that e should ban The Communist Manifesto or Keynesian textbooks. When you’re right, you don’t have to ban “mis/disinformation”.

23rd book of 2024 complete: Bronze Age Mindset by Bronze Age Pervert Anyone who understands that we must transcend left/right politics if we want to fix what’s broken is someone worth listening to and reading Freedom is something that must be fought for and defended through cooperative means and at all times. The moment you stop being vigilant is the moment it will be taken away by someone with more intestinal fortitude Read this book and learn how to be mentally and physically prepared for the battle we’re in

I celebrated the Halvening by purchasing a Wagyu 1/2 cow from @KCCattleCompany 21% off by paying with #bitcoin But it’s more than the discount. It’s more than having a freezer full of high quality beef. It’s knowing I’m helping an American Veteran owned and operated cattle business fight back against the big corporations who manipulate the market and sell us inferior products. They fuck us with inflation and their “cure” is cheap shitty food We’re opting out and creating parallel economies, supply chains, and lines of communications #GetOnTheMission #bitcoin #nostr #beef

19th book of 2024 complete: Bitcoin Evangelism by @Brian De Mint This will become my new go to Orange Pilling book to give to people wanting to learn more Brian covers every topic that a normie/precoiner would have. Most importantly, he doesn’t shy away from talking about altcoins and what they’re attempting to do, whether as a scam or provide some utility. This is an often overlooked aspect by Maxis, who although correct, come off as myopic and biased. Great piece of work for beginners and OGs
