Trivium

To my British Cousins and Christian Brothers...they are mocking us.

Daily Trivium book review The Road to Serfdom is a book by the Austrian economist and philosopher Friedrich Hayek. In the book, Hayek warns of the danger of tyranny that inevitably results from the centralized control. CHAPTER 10 "Why the Worst Get on Top," explains why centralized power tends to attract and elevate individuals with authoritarian tendencies. Hayek argues that in a system where power is concentrated, such as in socialist or totalitarian regimes, the people who rise to leadership are often those least constrained by moral principles. He identifies three main reasons for this: 1. Selection of the Ruthless Centralized systems require obedience and conformity to a single plan, which appeals to those willing to use coercion and suppress dissent. Individuals with fewer scruples about manipulating or controlling others are more likely to thrive in such environments, as they are better equipped to navigate and exploit the power structure. 2. Appeal to the Unscrupulous: Totalitarian systems often rely on propaganda and simplistic ideologies to unify people. These appeal to the least principled, who are willing to prioritize power over ethics. Such systems reward those who can rally support through emotional manipulation or demagoguery, rather than reason or integrity. 3. Control Over Resources and Loyalty: Leaders in centralized systems control vast resources and can demand loyalty by distributing rewards or punishments. This attracts individuals who value power and are skilled at building alliances through fear or favoritism, rather than those guided by independent judgment or moral conviction. Hayek emphasizes that while not all leaders in such systems are inherently evil, the structure incentivizes the rise of those who are willing to sacrifice individual freedoms and ethical standards to achieve and maintain power. This dynamic undermines the possibility of benevolent centralized planning, as the system inherently favors the worst traits in human nature. Its a really great book.

Why was the FBI targeting Cynthia Lummis? 👀 #Bitcoin

According to a The Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) application, the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs is operating the "largest Christian church geofencing campaign in US History.” Thru a PR firm called "Show of Faith by Works". They want to “create a digital perimeter around key Christian gathering places, delivering targeted pro-Israel content and sympathetic anti-Hamas messaging to engaged audiences.” Targeting major churchs in California, Arizona, Nevada and Colorado, They will tag phones while people are worshipping and then track them for months to deliver targeted messaging. Invoicing in the application shows payments of $325,881 every 2 weeks (from Aug 25, 2025 thru Dec 26th 2025). $3.26M in total funding. Have a great day!
