The Oligarchical Order: A Bonus Audio From A Collapsing State

The United States has been co-opted by oligarchs hellbent on destroying democracy, lowering our standard of living, and delivering a new world order

This is a special edition of Audio From A Collapsing State. The intent is to get people up to speed on some basic facts that have been regrettably, but understandably, absent from conventional and mainstream political coverage. If we are to create a movement to defeat this threat, and we must, this is base-level knowledge.

Though we see the world through the lens of Red v. Blue / Republican v. Democratic politics, the truth is that our politics and culture are influenced by capitalistic influences that lie underneath the surface. It is time to shake off childish notions of how our politics work, discard these tired and obsolete stereotypes, and grapple with the real nature of power. This is the story of how we arrived at this moment, how a group of oligarchs and corporations superseded national interests, conspired with dictators and authoritarians, and are now poised to wreck what’s left of our economy, lower our standard of living, and free capitalism from American control, all to line their pockets, expand their power, and realize a world in which democracy is no longer a thorn in their side.

I hope this helps to clarify our present circumstances and, if it does, please share it with friends, family members, and coworkers who might find this analysis helpful in finally overcoming these ideas and stories that have held them back and kept them in cycles of exploitation and suffering. This weekend I will release the regular Audio From A Collapsing State episode that will detail what to expect as this plan is coming out and outline things that you can do as an individual to prepare yourself for what’s coming and prepare yourself to organize and fight against it.

In the meantime, here are a list of past posts and videos that will hopefully serve as resources.
