Incredible things happening at the White House 😂
Impeach his inner circle first. One by one. Let him crumble beneath the weight of fear. Make him desperate for the end. Put them in trauma. - Russ Vought
Pretty disappointed that Trump’s 30-city ass worship tour didn’t work out. It would have made politics more entertaining going forward.
I don’t mean to be an alarmist, but there are an unusually large number of pressure points on the world next week, starting with Netanyahu’s deadline of November 10th to keep himself in power. Batten down. (Blame Bibi for the cover art.) www.mind-war.com/p/batten-down

It is a dangerous error to keep talking about the current scenario as politics. It isn’t. It is a competition between alternate realities to bend the real world around themselves. I wrote about the psychopolitics of Trump, Putin, Musk & Amodei. www.mind-war.com/p/psychopoli...
Psychopolitics in the Interregnum

Many of the richest man’s so-called “visionary ideas” came from a specific series of books by socialist sci-fi author Iain M Banks. Neuralink, human-AI societies, “universal high income”… all fanfic. And surprise: Elon’s modeling himself on the bad guy. www.mind-war.com/p/elons-endg...

Totalitarians, theocrats, and the promoters of artificial superintelligence share a common motivation: the subordination of humans to a manufactured construct. I wrote about the rise of Anti-Humanism, why it’s happening, and what we need to do about it. www.mind-war.com/p/anti-human...
Anti-Humanism
How widely different groups share a core ideological project—subordination of humans to a manufactured authority—and how to resist it

If you wanted to construct the most dangerous possible man, you could not build one better than the U.S. president. Trump is suffering from a set of psychological and neurodegenerative disorders that removes every constraint on his behavior. Break glass. www.mind-war.com/p/the-most-d...
The Most Dangerous Possible Man
You could not design a more potent human weapon.

If the purpose of a system is what it does, the AI industry is a machine for extracting money, energy, and knowledge from the population, ad infinitum. I wrote about Sam Altman, “Claude’s Constitution,” and Fahrenheit 451. Please consider subscribing! www.mind-war.com/p/the-great-...

The AI industry & Trump regime are driving America into a $10 trillion ditch chasing the fantasy of “Super Intelligence.” But the dirty little secret is that it will never work. Spending trillions on GPUs is like betting America’s future on punchcards. www.mind-war.com/p/super-inte...

For years, Peter Thiel has accused everyone from the Pope to Greta Thunberg of the being the Antichrist—while he systematically collects the power to destroy civilization and remake it in his own image. In Berlin this week, he finally made his confession. www.mind-war.com/p/thiels-ant...

I did a Substack Live to explain how Peter Thiel’s doomer alternate universe of “superintelligence” ended up in Trump’s UN speech. This idea has been around for 60 years. It’s wrong every time. Please subscribe. www.mind-war.com/p/why-trump-...

BREAKING: The loser in Flynn v. Stewartson is floating a run for president of the United States. I hope he does it. <cracks knuckles>
Jim Stewartson, Decelerationist@jim-stewartson.bsky.social · 8mo agoI wrote about why not backing down to bullies is more important than ever. Mike Flynn sued me 3 years ago to shut me up & strip away not just my rights but everyone who cares about democracy in America. He decided to make an example out of the wrong blogger. I won. www.mind-war.com/p/not-backin...
The background story of the AI industry is far darker than I thought, and has an familiar name in the middle. Peter Thiel systematically built an alternate reality doomer cult that underpinning 40% of the economy. Zoom today at Noon PT. Please consider subscribing. www.mind-war.com/p/the-puppy-...

As a long-time technologist who has built many software products: If your software does something you can’t control, you are a shitty software engineer. You have not birthed an alien intelligence.
Please stop worrying about the fucking chatbots.
Jim Stewartson, Decelerationist@jim-stewartson.bsky.social · 2mo agoWhile the media and political class promotes a futuristic scenario in which killer AI ends humanity, I’d like to offer an alternate doomer scenario.

Imagine you’re a conman. You’ve said for years you have MAGIC BEANS. You’ve shown lots of REALLY BIG normal beans that you made in your lab. “Almost there!” you say—over and over. Now, you have *almost* convinced the villagers to give you TWO TRILLION DOLLARS. 1/4
Holy shit. He’s doing a President Not Sure impression. IYKYK. It’s UNCANNY. 😬😭
Tuned into the Midterm Shitshow to find convicted narco-trafficker Ross Ulbricht who was accused by prosecutors of contracting five different murders. If you’ve ever read or seen “American Psycho”—this is Patrick Bateman. I added some Les Miz to accompany his weeping.
The chatbot industrial complex wants us to believe it will either kill us or make it so we don’t have to work. Both stories serve the same narrative purpose: “our technology is unimaginably powerful.” The reality is far more boring—and far more serious. www.mind-war.com/p/ai-could-k...
