A society’s well being is directly calibrated to its adherence to the brain standard.
The world is moving towards multipolarity. One axis, the West, is led by the U.S., the other—Eurasia and the global south—by Russia and China. Ukraine currently serves as a cauldron of the military conflict between the two axes. Taiwan may become a second such cauldron.
Through sanctions, the West has made economic and financial warfare a part of the conflict. The longest arrow in the U.S.’s quiver is the dollar’s reserve currency status. Western economies are based on credit. Central banks serve as the focal point of fiat debt issuance and monetization, interest rate manipulation, and currency debasement. Russia, China, and their cohorts are exploring alternatives to the dollar’s role and the West’s fiat currency, debt, and financialization, discussing arrangements based on gold and commodities, and economic activity centered on agriculture, mining, petroleum, manufacturing, and trade.
It’s a common sense conclusion that these are a more durable economic foundation than fiat debt, whose value is wholly dependent on the ever-shifting whims of politicians and monetary functionaries. Several commentators have hailed the shift away from the West’s fiat currencies and credit to that which is tangible and real. Currently, however, Russia and China’s currencies and credit are just as fiat as the West’s.
“Turning “scientists” into functionaries of governments, “science” into officially approved propaganda, and persecuting the few who refuse to prostitute themselves are having disastrous consequences. Chaos is what’s left when the best minds either surrender or withdraw to the safety of their own private pursuit of truth (that is, they shrug).”
Who is John Galt ?
“The only things those who cherish freedom and adhere to the brain standard can do is reject the war on the mind, protect themselves the best they can, and steer clear of the carnage. Chaos and collapse burn themselves out, but until they do fighting them is like trying to swim Class 6 rapids—you’ll get crushed on the boulders or drown.”
If you can’t get to ‘the gulch’, be the ‘gray man’.
