  • Was really into it, but got into misleading spin!

    Shame on anyone spreading misinformation about MAID. The average MAID recipient in Canada is about 76 years old, most have serious illnesses like cancer, and studies found lower-income people are actually 37% less likely to receive MAID than wealthier people. Debate the ethics if you want, but don't invent statistics to support your argument.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Substack Founding Members Livestream #2
Q: What signals do you look for as signs that things will change dramatically?
The guest emphasizes anomalies and cognitive dissonance in the news as early indicators, plus looking for shifts in policy, leadership actions, and breaking patterns that contradict expected trajectories, which he interprets as signals of deeper systemic change.
Global Meet-Up #2 (Los Angeles): The "End of the World" US Tour
Q: What is your framework for understanding where we are headed?
The framework centers on imperial decline driven by financialization, bureaucratization, and an overreliance on control of the monetary system, with a suggestion that elite actors seek to accelerate collapse to profit from the transition.
Dante #5: Paradise Cantos 30-33, Hell Cantos 1-2
Q: Why is Beatrice in heaven next to Beatrice?
The discussion suggests Beatrice's position is tied to Dante's love for her and to the narrative device of Beatrice guiding Dante; her heavenly role is explained through the metaphysical framework of love, imagination, and divine favor.
Global Meet-Up #3 (New York City): The Eschatology of Capitalism
Q: How could the US win the Iran war, according to the talk?
The speaker suggests two steps: provide Iran with $2 trillion in USD to force recycling back into the US economy and contain Israel by embargoing weapons supplies, arguing this would stabilize global finance and economy.
Global Meet-Up #3 (New York City): The Eschatology of Capitalism
Q: What are the benefits to the US from the current system?
The speaker argues that Wall Street benefits enormously from the financial system, which preserves the status quo and allows the system to endure despite its downsides.
