In this episode, Curtis Yarvin argues that modern democracies may lack clear sovereignty and that technological acceleration and sovereign debt are exposing that weakness.
We discuss AI as a force multiplier, bureaucratic continuity, legitimacy, regime structure and the limits of procedural governance.
We also explore fiscal exhaustion, debt sustainability, and whether a system that cannot make decisive changes can survive compounding crises.
