The Coming Clash of Civilizations is not prophecy—it’s diagnosis. It’s what happens when liberal democracies forget that democracy isn’t a system of analysis. It’s a system of trust. Read here:

Every liberal democracy faces the same test: Will citizens trust themselves enough to govern, or will they trade freedom for efficiency marketed as expertise? The next civilization is being chosen now. 5/

The surrender of elites to authoritarianism is not accidental. They believe governance should be optimized by the few— not navigated by the many. Technocracy and tyranny are twins separated only by intention. 4/

“Clash of Civilizations” once meant Islam vs. the West. Now it’s authoritarian civilization vs. democratic civilization. One built on obedience and control. One built on meaning, participation, and human dignity. 3/

The 2024 election didn’t just reshuffle politics—it ended the illusion that technocrats would save democracy. The new conflict isn’t Left vs. Right. It’s between systems that demand obedience and citizens who still believe they have agency. 2/

I used to think “The Clash of Civilizations” was a dated 90s thesis. Then I watched Silicon Valley surrender to Trump. What’s coming isn’t a clash between nations—it’s a clash between hierarchies and citizens. 1/

Americans vote for the president, yes. That president's power is constrained by law. This president is governing outside of law. That he was elected does not make that okay, Meghan. But you are clearly a very stupid person.

In America, we are bound by a single audacious idea: that ordinary people coming together, can govern themselves. And we have no fucking kings! Furthermore, the institutions of our great Republic were built not to enthrone men like Trump, Vance, Thiel, Musk, and their ilk—but

Wait I thought you guys said the left were violent evil antifa terrorists??

No Crowns. No Thrones. No Kings. This Saturday, stand for your country and join brave patriotic Americans at your local No Kings peaceful protest! @ElissaSlotkin @CaptMarkKelly @HoulahanForPa @PatRyanUC @RubenGallego @JasonCrowCO @MaggieG603 @ChrisForPA https://t.co/3o0y7jqqOw

As expected, one phone call from Putin and Ukraine is no longer getting Tomahawks.

1/ Bitcoin maximalists love to tell you that inflation is a “hidden tax” and that “sound money” will fix everything. What they don’t tell you is that their system would destroy workers, lock in inequality, and make democracy impossible.

This is fucking crazy. https://t.co/IOYJVnpSjE

"We are a decade into Trumpism. These Young Republicans have never known any other type of Republicanism. We’re talking about a full generation of Republicans who only understand politics in the context of an authoritarian project." https://t.co/3Mse9BMrRl

Speaker Johnson: "Most recently, the most threatening thing I've seen yet was the naked bicyclers in Portland who were protesting ICE down there. I mean, it's getting really ugly." But this isn't?
