The Oligarchical Order: A Bonus Audio From A Collapsing State

Please consider subscribing to support this independent venture and to gain access to regular episodes of Audio From A Collapsing State.

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 This is the story of how we arrived at this moment, how a group of oligarchs and corporations superseded national interests, conspired with dictators and authoritarians, and are now poised to wreck what’s left of our economy, lower our standard of living, and free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.

* 226/312: An Excercise in Self-Destruction: An in-depth response to Democratic Party excuses from the 2024 Presidential loss that deals with a self-defeating mentality that threatens to keep us in this cycle

* Where We Are And Where We Must Go: Audio From A Collapsing State: A podcast reacting to the election loss that expresses how we must approach the next few weeks mentally as we prepare ourselves to fight back and create an actual movement and an actual resistance that isn’t just hashtag activism and a total liberal grift

* The Midnight Kingdom Lecture Series Episode 1: The Great Chain of Being: The first episode of the YouTube series that explains how wealth and power, beginning with the Fall of Rome and the allegience between the wealth class and Christianity, protected and expanded itself as feudalism gave birth to capitalism and liberal democracy

* The Midnight Kingdom Lecture Series Episode 2: Capitalist Apocalypse: The story of how liberal democracy turned to authoritarian control as the economic order melts down and spurs World War I, a capitalist slaughter over resources and power

* The Midnight Kingdom Lecture Series Episode 3: Changing of the Guard: As mentioned in this episode, the Great Depression leads to a rise of Fascism and Nazism, which catches on in Europe but also the United States, creating the perfect scenario for the oligarchs of the 20th century to once again attack liberal democracy. At the end of World War II, capitalism as a parasite jumps from Great Britain to America, which quickly begins using the remnants of fascism to cement control

* The Midnight Kingdom Lecture Series Episode 4: A New Empire: The new American Empire shapes world politics and preps the world for globalism through military force and conspiracy theories capitalizing on inherent prejudices and evangelical programming

* The Midnight Kingdom Lecture series Episode 5: The Crisis: A reckoning with our modern political environment, including the leadup to the 2024 Presidential Election and the circumstances we now face, including the push by oligarchs to coopt the country and cement control
