Speaker 0 (0s):

Speaker 1 (13s): Podcast new year, breaking down some big ideas. Do you have a good new year? Did you get the hangout with the family? You didn't catch COVID or did you see the Evolution of civilizations and with the evolution of civilizations Cubs, the disintegration of parts of our Civilization

Speaker 0 (39s): Peanut first three

Speaker 1 (44s): But disintegration is the gradual transformation of social instruments into institutions. That is the transformation of social arrangements, functioning to meet real social needs into social institutions, serving their own purposes, regardless of real social needs. Think about social security. Think about health care. These are social instruments that are designed to help real social needs.

However, the corruption that has crept in has turned these social instruments into social arrangements or social institutions that no longer serve real needs that are only serving their own purpose. They no longer do what their set up to do. Even our government and no longer function is to serve the people. And no longer function is to serve the needs where the real needs of the society.

Instead it only serving the needs of the people on the top. I think that comes back to absolute power and the corruption of conformity. I think the big question today is whether we have lost a Western view of reality.

Speaker 0 (2m 11s): Yeah.

Speaker 1 (2m 12s): Right. Which has given our 2000 years of history, its unique vitality constantly pregnant with new versions of social structure. The truth unfolds in time through a communal process. People must constantly search for the truth by building upon what others have learned, but no knowledge can be assumed to be complete and final. It could be contradicted by new information received tomorrow.

Speaker 0 (2m 44s): Those weapons of mass destruction. You've got to be somewhere. I did not have sexual relations with that woman read my lips.

Speaker 1 (3m 2s): The possible termination of open ended. Western civilization is upon us with access to an explosive technology that can tear the planet apart, coupled with the failure of Western civilization to establish any viable system of world government, local political authority will tend to become violent and absolutest as we move into irrational activism, States will seize upon ideologies that justify absolutism the 2000 year separation in Western history of state and society would then in Western people would rejoin those of the rest of the world in merging the two into a single entity, authoritarian and static.

The age that we are about to enter would be an ideologic one consistent with the views of Hagle and Marx, a homeostatic condition that triumph would end the Western experiment and return as to the experience of the rest of the world. Namely, that history is a sequence of stages in the rise and fall of absolutist ideologies.

Speaker 2 (4m 19s): I guess the way it is just the way

Speaker 1 (4m 25s): It's interesting to think about. There was another book I read a while back by Thomas Piketty called capital. And in that book, it goes in depth about capital, be it monetary capital human capital. And it tells us it's, it's a tome in this book, it's over a thousand pages and is really well detailed. And Thomas Piketty goes on to tell us that capital has two States.

He goes, he tells us that throughout history

Speaker 0 (5m 4s): People

Speaker 1 (5m 4s): Are either really, really wealthy or they are really, really poor. Those are the two States. And if you take a look back into history, I would recommend if you, if you question this to read Thomas picket his book, the information in there is a vast, and I think irrefutable, what we have seen in the United States while we have scene in the West is But a blip, a tiny little blip on the radar, the Increased wages and living standard of the Western or American middle class.

It was a consequence of devastated industry and Europe. 'cause the two world Wars, the Bretton woods system, the strong dollar. It meant that people in the United States in a way, we're the only game in town

Speaker 0 (6m 8s): I'm looking over here and I see green .

Speaker 1 (6m 18s): And so that rising tide lifted all the boats that were in the United States. However, as industry caught up in investment was large investments were made in other countries, supply chains were changed. There is no longer this giant tide lifting the boats of the United States. And again were beginning to see the natural state of Capitol, which is all the money settles at the top.

And the crumbs are left to the people on the bottom,

Speaker 0 (7m 2s): Right?

Speaker 1 (7m 3s): There's a world of competition. His it's a law of nature, which is ironic because we're going to get into science. We're going to get into laws in some things like that. The difference is between natural science in social sciences that have been coming up here in just a few minutes. I think it's important to note a good quote. The man has a responsibility to understand and relate actively to a continually unfolding

Speaker 0 (7m 33s): Reality.

Speaker 1 (7m 36s): Let's talk about history. The facts of the past are infinite and the possible arrangement of any selection from these facts are equally numerous. Since all the facts cannot be mobilized in any written history because of they're a great number. There must be some principle on which selection from these facts is based. Such a principle is a tool of historical analysis. I think if you have never questioned your history

Speaker 0 (8m 8s): And then

Speaker 1 (8m 11s): You've never sat down and done some real critical thinking. Let me just read a little, let me just read that part again because they really want to drive at home. The facts of the past are infinite in the possible arrangement of any selection from these facts are equally numerous. That points to a lot of different histories. Notice that I said history is plural, right? I think it's also important to note that any past event, even this podcast is a fact of history, but most such facts, including this podcast do not deserve to be mentioned in the narration of history.

That's funny, right? The central factor of American history is the process by which a society with European cultural patterns was modified by the selective process of immigration from Europe and the opportunity to exploit the enormous, largely Virgin resources of the new world. With those few quotes in that short introduction, Think you can begin to establish a pattern.

And this pattern led me to what I'm going to call COVID culture and social engineering of our current situation. Three steps. There's three steps. I thought to myself, could it be this easy? Could it be this easy to have three steps to social engineer and an entire population? What do you think? Do you think you can do it in three steps? You know what I think about three steps.

And I was thinking about if this is possible, I started thinking about Leonard Skinner and I know some of you were like, what the fuck are you talking about? George how do we get Leonard Skinner heard and social engineering? You're talking about the history of the United States. You're talking about disintegration of civilizations and you're talking about Evolution of c...
