Why I’m optimistic about the future…
Beyond this velocipedic age, a golden aquarian epoch beckons
Like me, you’re probably doing your best to avoid the deluge of depressing news about the sordid state of the world. Here, I’ve got something to sell you that’s increasingly rare, optimism about the future.
I am a lot more white-pilled (optimistic) about the future now than I was a few years ago.
Recently I shared this interview I did with J.F Gariépy back in 2019 on the topic of transhumanism and the book he wrote about the coming phenotypic revolution. Around the same time I read JF’s book, I also read At Our Wits’ End about the decline of intelligence and what that means for the future. The two books paint a dreary picture of the world to come; that all these dysgenic forces are driving down intelligence across civilization and that we’ll end up totally enslaved to our own creation — technology.
Listening back to the interview I realized I am a lot more white-pilled (optimistic) about the future now than I was then. I’m, no doubt, in the minority — given what’s gone on in the world over the last few years — most people have become less optimistic about the future. I’ll make the case for being an optimistic accelerationist and lend you something in real short supply these days — hope.
In 2022, it would seem that the decline of civilization is in full swing
We are coming out of this pandemic/plandemic that has revealed nearly all of our institutions (government, science, medicine, media) to be either dangerously incompetent or deeply malicious. The run-away inflation and economic armageddon that the right-thinking have been warning about for decades seem to finally be upon us. And now our political leaders seem hell-bent on getting us into yet another war, possibly a nuclear one. A prima vista, the view from 2022 is not encouraging.
What is the main thing that’s given you a more positive outlook?
Someone asked me on Twitter in response to my sentiments which are concise but do not come close to capturing my optimism about the future…
Since I did this interview I’ve grown a bit less #blackpilled on the future of mankind. The global acceleration of entropy, that we’ve all experienced in this young new decade, does not bode well for those that aim to enslave us all…
In short, I’ve become an optimistic accelerationist, and as things accelerate there’s more and more to be optimistic about. Entropy is a fancy word for chaos and disorder, and when you come to accept that it’s the medicine our civilization needs to redeem itself the view from 2022 brightens.
Back in 2019, we were on a trajectory to a truly dark place…
The technocratic elites really had a decent shot at turning billions of us into their powerless slaves who could eventually be liquidated to get the human population down to that 500 million number that they seem to like.
- They could have kept up the farce of democracy with pseudo-populist politicians like Donald J. Trump while slowly taking away our fundamental human rights; free speech, free association, property rights, freedom of conscience, bodily autonomy, religious freedoms, etc.
- They could have kept up what the United Nations itself (not exactly a bastion of right-wing “conspiracy theorists”) calls replacement migration; moving millions of poorer, browner people every year into historically white, European countries. Which is bad for everybody except a tiny minority of connected political elites. They could have come close to erasing all but a very small group of white people from the face of the Earth.
- They could have deprived us of anything approaching organic, naturally-derived food. They could have forced almost all of us onto a GMO vegetarian peasants’ diet.
- They could have continued to enjoy cocaine, caviar, and champagne on their superyachts; enriching themselves off the satanically-inverted money-as-debt legacy financial system.
- They could have kept the US dollar as the global reserve currency; until such time as they perverted Satoshi’s ingenious invention and rolled out a USD central bank digital currency — one coin with which to rule the planet and snuff out the last vestiges of human defiance.
- They could have realized their “Children of Men in real-life” depopulation fantasy by feeding western culture this poisonous cocktail of deranged feminism, endocrine-disrupting chemicals, internet porn, and the LGBTQ indoctrination — that I despise while being tolerant of individual gays who aren’t don’t devote themselves to undermining the civilization that has done so much to protect them.
- They could have convinced the young generations to totally abandon the faith that gave hope and meaning to their ancestors, surrendering to nihilism and hedonism.
- They could have kept us all distracted by and addicted to drugs, porn, alcohol, video games, opioids, junk food, and/or mindless entertainment.
- And if you complained about any of this they would silence you online, depriving you of the chance to defend yourself while they called you a racist, bigot, anti-vaxer, or conspiracy theorist.
They had a real decent chance of turning us into (what, perhaps we started out as) a slave species.
If the globalist elites had a little more patience and discipline they would have let Trump be elected a second time. They wouldn’t have imprisoned billions of us in our homes with lockdowns so they could get even richer quickly selling us back our freedom at the tip of their rush-job vaccine. They wouldn’t have pushed Vladimir Putin into invading Ukraine. They wouldn’t have printed trillions of US dollars in two years.
But to quote and paraphrase my favorite movie, “We’re wired to overreach” and there are no safeguards on aggressive overexpansion. The control-freaks pushed too hard, and too fast; in their hubris, they pulled too many blocks out at once from the collective civilizational Jenga tower and gravity is taking effect.
