Today's episode is an explanation of why I haven't been recording, why I came back and what to expect in the future.

I am going to be concentrating on antifragile strategies for 2025.

What’s on my Mind:  The Fall of Democracy

 “A functioning, robust democracy requires a healthy, educated, participatory followership, and an educated, morally grounded leadership.” - Chinua Achebe  

We had neither an educated electorate nor a moral leadership in Nov of 2024 and because of that democracy in American dies on January 20th, 2025.

 | I know I said that I was not going to produce an episode of the podcast this week, but I changed my mind, there is too much false information being spread to let it go. I want to start by saying “Democracy is Dead” the majority of the voters in America decided to end the so-called “American Experiment” and many sat on the sidelines and watched it die.  

So, all the people, Harris, Biden, Obama, etc. that are saying we should “accept” the outcome and try to win in the future are contradicting themselves, they said that Trump was an “existential” (of, relating to, or affirming existence) threat to democracy and they were right. If a Trump win was an existential threat to democracy, since he did in fact win, that means that democracy no longer exists. 

Our best idea about what is to come is to look at Project 2025, officially titled, “The Conservative Mandate for Leadership”, in our episode today I will review all 5-Sections and 30 Chapters of Project 2025 and show you want to expect, who will be harmed and how to fight back and not a single suggestion on fighting back will be based on participation in the political process, we do not fucking have one anymore, don’t delude yourselves, democracy is dead and we need to operate within the context of understanding that.

America elected a fascist, wannabe dictator to the highest office in the land and gave control of the House and Senate to his minions. We are all Fucked.!

Who is to blame?

White Men 60%
Latino Men 54%
White Women 52%
Black Men 20%

The only demographic that tried to save America where Black women that voted 92% for Harris.

Like it or not we are in a post-democracy America, we are at the beginning of our dystopian future, we can no longer hope to make change within the rules of the system, white supremacy has won in America and democracy is a casualty. We now need to move into the #antifa mode.
