(00:00):
Listen up, are you stressed out right now?
(00:02):
Do you have high anxiety about the state of the world,
the economy crashing, threats of dictators taking over?
Elon Musk doing the splits on stage?
Well, I've kind of got mixed news for you today
because what I'm gonna tell you about today
is going to probably scare the crap out of you
(00:24):
and also make you not care about anything that's happening
because it's all a wrap for the human race.
Today I am going to do a morning coffee,
bonus episode for the sport is it's a sneak peak
for what I'm about to deep dive into over there
on my podcast, on the dark enlightenment
and you're not gonna believe some of the findings
(00:46):
I'm already digging into.
Today, my normal wife, Josie is sitting here
and I'm about to either make or ruin her day, join us.
Here on Breaking Social Arms.
Now Josie.
- Yes.
I know you've been stressed out.
- Very.
- And it's weird.
I've had this weird experience today of researching
(01:10):
the dark enlightenment.
- Okay.
- Do you know what that is?
- No.
- These are, man, it's so much to unpack
is what I found out.
'Cause what is happening,
okay, let's zoom out, let's zoom out.
(01:30):
For people that are total normies
that are brand new to all of this are just like,
hey, I don't get it, Trump's just,
he's redoing the economy to make us build stuff
in America, it's gonna be great.
Which to be fair, you and I have had conversations
about that on the show.
And like, we kind of, I don't mind that idea.
(01:51):
- No.
- I very much in America first,
we're borderline white nationalists.
(laughing)
Not there yet.
No, I'm just joking.
I'm obviously joking, take it easy.
But, yeah, I do have, I don't know anything about economics,
but it seems weird to me that we are concerned about
building up other countries when they have their own cultures
(02:15):
and their own preferences of what they wanna do
with their lives that doesn't always mix with America.
So I'm kinda like, I don't know,
why don't we just worry about ourselves?
Like, that's the whole deal.
- Yeah.
- But there's a million other things that go into that,
so like, we're not gonna get into it.
But, the concern I've had since I started going down
this conspiracy path back in 2011 when I started all this,
(02:42):
was it was very clear to me that the powers that be
wanna put us in a digital matrix.
- You talk about that.
- Talk about all the time.
- All the time.
I wrote about it in 2012, my first book,
I've written about it several times since.
And the weird thing is now,
(03:03):
I can point to the evidence that is actually happening
currently before our own eyes that that is the plan.
- Okay.
- I could take this to court and prove it.
- Oh, really?
- Yeah.
- Wow.
- It's concerning.
It's alarming.
- I don't know.
- Jesus.
- Okay.
- Now, I am unpacking this dark enlightenment philosophy,
(03:26):
which is guiding, and I'm not even gonna say Trump,
'cause I actually have my feelings and thoughts
about Trump that I think, I don't know how to say this nicely,
but I don't think he puts energy into any of this stuff at all.
I think he's just like the little kid that wants to be
behind the choo choo train pulling the horn.
(03:48):
- Okay.
- You know, he's like, I wanna be the famous guy.
I want to be the world's most powerful man.
- They call that something.
A useful idiot.
- Useful idiot.
Yeah.
I don't think I honestly don't think he cares.
I think he just wants money, fame, power.
- I think he doesn't care.
- It's always ever wanted his whole life.
It's why he's been on TV for 30 freaking years.
- Yeah.
- That's what he cares about.
(04:09):
- He was in wrestling.
- He's trying to bang chicks.
- Yeah.
- He's a simple man.
I don't think he understands,
I don't know that he can even read.
- Yeah.
- Much less understands some of these concepts
we're gonna get into today.
- Right.
- And I'm not saying that to shit on the man.
- To be mean.
- Yeah, no.
- I'm just saying it because I actually don't think he's involved.
- Yeah.
- I actually don't think he's involved in this,
(04:30):
but he is involved in the sense of being complacent
and falling for this.
So, whether you're a pro or anti-Trump,
you have a vested interest in,
I mean, reach out to the man.
I don't know.
Get a lobbyist over there to whisper to his neighbor,
"Hey, do you know the people you're surrounding
"yourself with right now?
"Do you know the path they're taking you down?"
And maybe he does and maybe he's an awful person
(04:52):
and will rot in hell for it.
I don't know.
Or maybe he's just, that has no idea.
- Okay.
- You could literally convince me either way.
I don't know.
- Digital Matrix, tell me what it is.
- Digital Matrix.
It is, it's the ultimate plan,
where for, I mean, countless philosophies and theories
(05:13):
and ideas point to this idea that technology would advance
to the point where we cross what they call
the technological singularity.
- Okay.
- Ray Kurzweil, who's a futurist, director of Google,
engineering, a guy who's been on the pulse of technology
and its evolution since the frickin' '60s,
(05:35):
he's the guy who knows the most about this kind of thing.
- Okay.
- And he's been talking about this for a long time.
Back in the late '90s, I was--
- And did he like pro against--
- Oh, pro.
- If it's a nerd, they're pro.
- Okay.
- 'Cause you know how nerds are, they love technology.
- They do, they love it.
- They love crypto, they love being online forever.
(05:58):
- Yeah.
- They love not touching grass, they love not getting pussy.
- Yeah.
- They love all those things.
They love stinking.
- They do love distinct.
- They love drinking Mountain Dew.
- Yes.
- They like to be greasy.
- Greasy gamers.
- Yeah.
They love stinky, greasy, anything.
- They'll take it.
(06:19):
- So of course they wanna watch this world burn.
They've been bullied their whole lives.
And now they're like, all right, Johnny football star.
Look at the trap I'm setting for you.
- Okay.
- I'm getting back.
- All right.
- So Ray Kurzweil, King of all nerds there.
And he's a weird dude.
He also, I read a couple of his books.
(06:41):
I got into him after watching The Matrix,
'cause I was really intrigued
and I bought a book of philosophies on The Matrix.
Which is a movie that kind of depicts it.
No, he didn't.
- Oh, okay.
- But he was one of the people that I believe
that Wikowski's sister is now.
- Yeah.
- I believe that Wikowski's that filmed The Matrix
used, I think they used his Ray Kurzweil's theories
(07:04):
as inspiration for the movie.
I think they'll quote me on it.
Anyway.
- You've been really into like dystopian cyberpunk
movies media type of thing.
- Yeah, pulls me right in.
- It pulls you in.
Is this connected to that?
- I think so.
(07:25):
- Okay.
- Okay.
- And I've got so much to go over.
I don't, and like I said,
this is more of a sneak preview of what I'm gonna get
into on my podcast, 'cause I'm gonna deep dive into this
over multiple episodes,
'cause there's so many terms and figures and theories
and ideas that we've gotta unpack to fully understand it.
- Okay.
(07:45):
- Oh, geez.
- And what's alarming to me is that when I started
going down this path today, I saw so many elements
that support all of these theories I've been studying
over the years of The Digital Matrix.
- Okay.
- And Ray Kurzweil, who is one of the leaders of this thought,
thinks that we will cross this singularity point.
(08:08):
I think in the year 2035 to 2045, some were in there.
- Meaning that technology will be smarter
than human beings.
- Yep. - Okay.
- And we will merge with technology.
The human species will no longer exist.
We will be what they call transhumans.
- Oh.
- They've different terms for it.
(08:29):
That's kind of the term that they used to throw around.
I think it's changed since then.
- And what does that mean?
- It means no longer a homo sapien.
It means homo sapien sapiens to be accurate.
But it means that we will augment our bodies
with technology and that will accelerate
and evolve to the point where we go into The Digital Matrix.
(08:51):
Meaning are, in philosophy,
they have a thing called the brain in the Vat experiment
where they have, the thought projects is,
if you were a brain in a Vat and they hooked up
all these wires and sensors into the brain
to make you, it's basically the matrix,
to make you think you're living in this world.
(09:12):
How would you know?
- Okay.
- You're just a brain and not really a person.
- Yeah.
Daycart had a similar thought philosophy of like,
an evil genius creating basically a simulation world
or--
- And they want this.
- They want to create it, yes.
(09:33):
- Why?
- They're possessed by the devil.
I don't know.
They think, there's a couple of reasons I've heard
because I don't understand that either.
One alarming theory is that
AI is man's ultimate and final creation.
We will evolve ourselves--
(09:53):
- I'll live forever.
Is this a live forever thing?
- That's part of it, yes.
- Because there's this idea that mankind is meant
to facilitate the creation of something better.
- Man kind is created to create something better.
(10:13):
- Yeah, that's our whole purpose.
That's why we're drawn to technology.
That's why we stare at screens relentlessly.
That's why phones have completely like ruined our lives.
And there's no stopping it.
And they believe that the scientists
that really get into this stuff
are fueling up AI because they think they are inventing
(10:38):
new species more or less.
- Okay, but would you say that like,
let's say you have
like organ failure or like a limb
like you have to have your knees replaced
or your shoulders replaced.
Like wouldn't that be
if you were gonna walk out the same scary scenario,
(11:01):
couldn't you be like, we'll look at us now.
We have artificial valves
and we have pacemakers inside of us
and we have knee replacements and right?
- Right, yep.
And we're talking about a radical change, a revolution.
They think that they can manifest this AI,
(11:24):
they're creating life, they're creating artificial intelligence,
which as we interact with it enough to know
that it seems to be conscious or sentient on some level.
- Okay.
- And that's just gonna rapidly evolve.
And you can look to,
there's like, there's different like nerdy science theories
(11:49):
on all this stuff that I studied when I was studying engineering.
Like the Moore's Law, which says that the number of transistors
that fit on a chip doubles every two years,
meaning there's exponential growth
and technology will accelerate more and more and more
and it'll be completely impossible to predict it
because humans predict the future on a linear scale
(12:13):
instead of exponentially,
'cause we don't really think like that.
- Meaning doubling.
- Yeah.
- Okay.
- Yeah.
- So AI, I guess, I'm trying to, how do I sum this up?
I guess like the idea is that AI right now,
you go to chat GBT and it seems pretty smart,
'cause you're pretty good answers.
- Mm-hmm.
- Well, that's gonna accelerate so fast
(12:34):
that by the year 2045, which is only 20 years away,
that's 20 years ago we bought our first house.
- Yeah.
- You know what I mean?
Like that a that far away.
- Right.
- By 2045, it's gonna be so sentient and so God-like
that it will become a God.
(12:56):
And we will find a way to fuse ourselves into
the matrix created for us by the AI.
And these techno-weenies think that this God there creating
will repay favors for incarnating it.
Whereas the people who try to shut it down,
(13:16):
your, you know, litites and omniscient,
doing a bomber tech, Kazinsky,
and maybe even me, right?
So you're warning about the matrix.
There will be a punishment for us.
When the new, the new daddy steps into the fucking take charge.
That's one theory about why they're feeling this so hard.
The other is it's just nerds doing nerd shit, you know?
(13:40):
- I think it's just nerds doing nerd shit.
- They've seen all these sci-fi movies and
- Yes.
- They're like, "Let's make that happen."
- Okay.
- So that's the plan.
And in a Christian spiritual worldview, you have to understand
the nerds, right?
Obviously not, I mean, generalizing.
(14:00):
Obviously not a Christian thing to be like,
"Hey, let's create an AI God to replace humanity."
You could argue it's demonic and satanic
because the whole thing that Satan wanted was
to get rid of God's creation, which is humans, right?
'Cause we were made in the likeness and image of God.
So like these evil nerds are like,
"No, these are imperfect vessels of flesh and their weak."
(14:24):
- But they already think,
isn't there a theory out there now
where they think that they're in a video game right now?
- Yeah, Elon Musk talked about it, I think.
The simulation theory.
- Yeah, Grimes said that.
She was asked if she thought that she was evil
and she said, "Even if I was evil,
it's just the programming that they gave me."
- Yeah, these nerds are like out there.
(14:46):
- Okay.
And it's 'cause they wanna be.
They feel outcasted from society.
So they crowd around 4chan and live in chat rooms.
Well, all that's fine and dandy, right?
- Okay.
- And then I start stumbling into,
(15:07):
my journey started out with what is the dark enlightenment?
And there's a book, I've got it on the Amazon card,
I gotta wait 'til Sunday to order it,
apparently we're boycotting them.
And I don't know if I wanna boycott Bezos, you know?
- Fuck him, why?
- Of all the evil nerds, he's the most useful one.
Like I can live without Facebook and Instagram
(15:28):
and I certainly can live without Tesla.
- Let's just know the Barnes and Noble will go.
- I bet they don't even have it.
- I bet they do.
Let's go to the library and see if they have it.
- Okay.
All right, the library, yes.
- Is it library or library?
- Library.
- Library, right?
Am I saying that weird?
(15:49):
- No, you said this before, library with an art.
- I hear people say it and it's like they're calling it a library
and I'm like, is it library and I'm saying it weird?
- No, it's definitely a library.
- It's a library, right?
- Yeah. - Oh my God, okay.
- Well, this philosopher nerd named Nick Land.
(16:09):
- Okay.
- I think it was born in the 60s.
Like I said, this is gonna be a very, very brief,
preview of what we're gonna dive real deep into on my show.
- And what are you doing this?
- I'm working it now.
- You're doing it now.
- Schedule is an issue for me right now?
- Yeah.
- But I'm working as furiously fast as I can.
(16:31):
- Okay, so like this weekend?
- Probably not this weekend.
- Okay.
- It's gonna be a multi-part series, at least four or five episodes,
probably-- - You're not dropping them as a group,
you're gonna drop them individually, right?
- Yeah, yeah, cause there's just so much to get through.
- Okay.
(clears throat)
- So Nick Land, this philosopher nerd English guy,
(16:51):
taught at Warwick University,
he wrote the book about this, basically.
He's the Godfather of it.
He wrote a book called The Darken Lightment.
And what it is is it advocates for a form
(17:11):
of capitalist monarchism controlled by a CEO.
They basically-- - And capitalist monarchism
controlled by a CEO.
- Yes.
- Okay.
- And what that means is they wanna get,
they don't like the idea of democracy.
- Well, that's being shown right this minute.
(17:32):
- Yep, they don't like equality.
- Also being shown.
- They don't like the Constitution.
- Also being shown.
- They think all of those things slow down
the acceleration of technology.
- Oh.
- Because they are what's called acceleration lists,
which will impact that in a second.
But let me get through this.
(17:52):
- Dude, that sounds like what's a Silicon Valley's
whole move fast, break shit.
- That's where all this shit took birth.
- Okay.
- And specifically, they don't like that it slows down
the creation of the singularity.
The point of no return.
(18:15):
The point where technology has become too powerful
and we are forced to become slaves
or be absorbed into it or become a different species
of living, I guess.
And on top of all that, he blames the leftists
(18:36):
'cause it's sort of a right wing ideology.
He blames leftists for putting on the brakes
and he sort of mocks it as the irony is
that they call themselves progressives
and that they're all about progress.
When in reality, they're slowing this thing down
with all their egalitarian equality, democracy,
(18:59):
and like, hey, let's see what people think about all this
and they're like, no, we need to run this like a,
what's the fucking nerd shit Silicon Valley
where they say move fast and break things.
That's what they wanna do.
And they wanna turn America into
the capitalist monarchy controlled by a CEO
to rapidly accelerate the roll out of the singularity.
(19:20):
- God, okay.
(gun firing)
- All right, that's it.
That's it for the free preview for the free feed lovers.

it's a philosophy that threatens our very existence.
And I mean that in the least sensational way possible.
And I'm gonna walk all of yous through how this works,
how the digital matrix fixed into all these nerds.
Nerds galore, Peter Teild, Nick Land, Curtis Jarvan,
(20:03):
Steve Bannon, and your boy, you know what I'm talking about.
All these guys are kind of in on it.
And we kind of kick around the idea of
if there's anything we can do,
who could be the good guys in this situation maybe,
how the singularity fits into various theories
that I've talked about over the years.
And like insane connections to the order of nine angles.
(20:26):
If you've listened to my shows on the order of nine angles,
you know that weren't for some crazy discussions
about satanic Nazis doing magic.
It's insane.
It's gonna be actually a very upsetting episode.

I don't know.
Get a lobbyist over there to whisper to his neighbor,
"Hey, do you know the people you're surrounding
"yourself with right now?
"Do you know the path they're taking you down?"
And maybe he does and maybe he's an awful person
(04:52):
and will rot in hell for it.
I don't know.
Or maybe he's just, that has no idea.
- Okay.
- You could literally convince me either way.
I don't know.
- Digital Matrix, tell me what it is.
- Digital Matrix.
It is, it's the ultimate plan,
where for, I mean, countless philosophies and theories
(05:13):
and ideas point to this idea that technology would advance
to the point where we cross what they call
the technological singularity.
- Okay.
- Ray Kurzweil, who's a futurist, director of Google,
engineering, a guy who's been on the pulse of technology
and its evolution since the frickin' '60s,
(05:35):
he's the guy who knows the most about this kind of thing.
- Okay.
- And he's been talking about this for a long time.
Back in the late '90s, I was--
- And did he like pro against--
- Oh, pro.
- If it's a nerd, they're pro.
- Okay.
- 'Cause you know how nerds are, they love technology.
- They do, they love it.
- They love crypto, they love being online forever.
(05:58):
- Yeah.
- They love not touching grass, they love not getting pussy.
- Yeah.
- They love all those things.
They love stinking.
- They do love distinct.
- They love drinking Mountain Dew.
- Yes.
- They like to be greasy.
- Greasy gamers.
- Yeah.
They love stinky, greasy, anything.
- They'll take it.
(06:19):
- So of course they wanna watch this world burn.
They've been bullied their whole lives.
And now they're like, all right, Johnny football star.
Look at the trap I'm setting for you.
- Okay.
- I'm getting back.
- All right.
- So Ray Kurzweil, King of all nerds there.
And he's a weird dude.
He also, I read a couple of his books.
(06:41):
I got into him after watching The Matrix,
'cause I was really intrigued
and I bought a book of philosophies on The Matrix.
Which is a movie that kind of depicts it.
No, he didn't.
- Oh, okay.
- But he was one of the people that I believe
that Wikowski's sister is now.
- Yeah.
- I believe that Wikowski's that filmed The Matrix
used, I think they used his Ray Kurzweil's theories
(07:04):
as inspiration for the movie.
I think they'll quote me on it.
Anyway.
- You've been really into like dystopian cyberpunk
movies media type of thing.
- Yeah, pulls me right in.
- It pulls you in.
Is this connected to that?
- I think so.
(07:25):
- Okay.
- Okay.
- And I've got so much to go over.
I don't, and like I said,
this is more of a sneak preview of what I'm gonna get
into on my podcast, 'cause I'm gonna deep dive into this
over multiple episodes,
'cause there's so many terms and figures and theories
and ideas that we've gotta unpack to fully understand it.
- Okay.
(07:45):
- Oh, geez.
- And what's alarming to me is that when I started
going down this path today, I saw so many elements
that support all of these theories I've been studying
over the years of The Digital Matrix.
- Okay.
- And Ray Kurzweil, who is one of the leaders of this thought,
thinks that we will cross this singularity point.
(08:08):
I think in the year 2035 to 2045, some were in there.
- Meaning that technology will be smarter
than human beings.
- Yep. - Okay.
- And we will merge with technology.
The human species will no longer exist.
We will be what they call transhumans.
- Oh.
- They've different terms for it.
(08:29):
That's kind of the term that they used to throw around.
I think it's changed since then.
- And what does that mean?
- It means no longer a homo sapien.
It means homo sapien sapiens to be accurate.
But it means that we will augment our bodies
with technology and that will accelerate
and evolve to the point where we go into The Digital Matrix.
(08:51):
Meaning are, in philosophy,
they have a thing called the brain in the Vat experiment
where they have, the thought projects is,
if you were a brain in a Vat and they hooked up
all these wires and sensors into the brain
to make you, it's basically the matrix,
to make you think you're living in this world.
(09:12):
How would you know?
- Okay.
- You're just a brain and not really a person.
- Yeah.
Daycart had a similar thought philosophy of like,
an evil genius creating basically a simulation world
or--
- And they want this.
- They want to create it, yes.
(09:33):
- Why?
- They're possessed by the devil.
I don't know.
They think, there's a couple of reasons I've heard
because I don't understand that either.
One alarming theory is that
AI is man's ultimate and final creation.
We will evolve ourselves--
(09:53):
- I'll live forever.
Is this a live forever thing?
- That's part of it, yes.
- Because there's this idea that mankind is meant
to facilitate the creation of something better.
- Man kind is created to create something better.
(10:13):
- Yeah, that's our whole purpose.
That's why we're drawn to technology.
That's why we stare at screens relentlessly.
That's why phones have completely like ruined our lives.
And there's no stopping it.
And they believe that the scientists
that really get into this stuff
are fueling up AI because they think they are inventing
(10:38):
new species more or less.
- Okay, but would you say that like,
let's say you have
like organ failure or like a limb
like you have to have your knees replaced
or your shoulders replaced.
Like wouldn't that be
if you were gonna walk out the same scary scenario,
(11:01):
couldn't you be like, we'll look at us now.
We have artificial valves
and we have pacemakers inside of us
and we have knee replacements and right?
- Right, yep.
And we're talking about a radical change, a revolution.
They think that they can manifest this AI,
(11:24):
they're creating life, they're creating artificial intelligence,
which as we interact with it enough to know
that it seems to be conscious or sentient on some level.
- Okay.
- And that's just gonna rapidly evolve.
And you can look to,
there's like, there's different like nerdy science theories
(11:49):
on all this stuff that I studied when I was studying engineering.
Like the Moore's Law, which says that the number of transistors
that fit on a chip doubles every two years,
meaning there's exponential growth
and technology will accelerate more and more and more
and it'll be completely impossible to predict it
because humans predict the future on a linear scale
(12:13):
instead of exponentially,
'cause we don't really think like that.
- Meaning doubling.
- Yeah.
- Okay.
- Yeah.
- So AI, I guess, I'm trying to, how do I sum this up?
I guess like the idea is that AI right now,
you go to chat GBT and it seems pretty smart,
'cause you're pretty good answers.
- Mm-hmm.
- Well, that's gonna accelerate so fast
(12:34):
that by the year 2045, which is only 20 years away,
that's 20 years ago we bought our first house.
- Yeah.
- You know what I mean?
Like that a that far away.
- Right.
- By 2045, it's gonna be so sentient and so God-like
that it will become a God.
(12:56):
And we will find a way to fuse ourselves into
the matrix created for us by the AI.
And these techno-weenies think that this God there creating
will repay favors for incarnating it.
Whereas the people who try to shut it down,
(13:16):
your, you know, litites and omniscient,
doing a bomber tech, Kazinsky,
and maybe even me, right?
So you're warning about the matrix.
There will be a punishment for us.
When the new, the new daddy steps into the fucking take charge.
That's one theory about why they're feeling this so hard.
The other is it's just nerds doing nerd shit, you know?
(13:40):
- I think it's just nerds doing nerd shit.
- They've seen all these sci-fi movies and
- Yes.
- They're like, "Let's make that happen."
- Okay.
- So that's the plan.
And in a Christian spiritual worldview, you have to understand
the nerds, right?
Obviously not, I mean, generalizing.
(14:00):
Obviously not a Christian thing to be like,
"Hey, let's create an AI God to replace humanity."
You could argue it's demonic and satanic
because the whole thing that Satan wanted was
to get rid of God's creation, which is humans, right?
'Cause we were made in the likeness and image of God.
So like these evil nerds are like,
"No, these are imperfect vessels of flesh and their weak."
(14:24):
- But they already think,
isn't there a theory out there now
where they think that they're in a video game right now?
- Yeah, Elon Musk talked about it, I think.
The simulation theory.
- Yeah, Grimes said that.
She was asked if she thought that she was evil
and she said, "Even if I was evil,
it's just the programming that they gave me."
- Yeah, these nerds are like out there.
(14:46):
- Okay.
And it's 'cause they wanna be.
They feel outcasted from society.
So they crowd around 4chan and live in chat rooms.
Well, all that's fine and dandy, right?
- Okay.
- And then I start stumbling into,
(15:07):
my journey started out with what is the dark enlightenment?
And there's a book, I've got it on the Amazon card,
I gotta wait 'til Sunday to order it,
apparently we're boycotting them.
And I don't know if I wanna boycott Bezos, you know?
- Fuck him, why?
- Of all the evil nerds, he's the most useful one.
Like I can live without Facebook and Instagram
(15:28):
and I certainly can live without Tesla.
- Let's just know the Barnes and Noble will go.
- I bet they don't even have it.
- I bet they do.
Let's go to the library and see if they have it.
- Okay.
All right, the library, yes.
- Is it library or library?
- Library.
- Library, right?
Am I saying that weird?
(15:49):
- No, you said this before, library with an art.
- I hear people say it and it's like they're calling it a library
and I'm like, is it library and I'm saying it weird?
- No, it's definitely a library.
- It's a library, right?
- Yeah. - Oh my God, okay.
- Well, this philosopher nerd named Nick Land.
(16:09):
- Okay.
- I think it was born in the 60s.
Like I said, this is gonna be a very, very brief,
preview of what we're gonna dive real deep into on my show.
- And what are you doing this?
- I'm working it now.
- You're doing it now.
- Schedule is an issue for me right now?
- Yeah.
- But I'm working as furiously fast as I can.
(16:31):
- Okay, so like this weekend?
- Probably not this weekend.
- Okay.
- It's gonna be a multi-part series, at least four or five episodes,
probably-- - You're not dropping them as a group,
you're gonna drop them individually, right?
- Yeah, yeah, cause there's just so much to get through.
- Okay.
(clears throat)
- So Nick Land, this philosopher nerd English guy,
(16:51):
taught at Warwick University,
he wrote the book about this, basically.
He's the Godfather of it.
He wrote a book called The Darken Lightment.
And what it is is it advocates for a form
(17:11):
of capitalist monarchism controlled by a CEO.
They basically-- - And capitalist monarchism
controlled by a CEO.
- Yes.
- Okay.
- And what that means is they wanna get,
they don't like the idea of democracy.
- Well, that's being shown right this minute.
(17:32):
- Yep, they don't like equality.
- Also being shown.
- They don't like the Constitution.
- Also being shown.
- They think all of those things slow down
the acceleration of technology.
- Oh.
- Because they are what's called acceleration lists,
which will impact that in a second.
But let me get through this.
(17:52):
- Dude, that sounds like what's a Silicon Valley's
whole move fast, break shit.
- That's where all this shit took birth.
- Okay.
- And specifically, they don't like that it slows down
the creation of the singularity.
The point of no return.
(18:15):
The point where technology has become too powerful
and we are forced to become slaves
or be absorbed into it or become a different species
of living, I guess.
And on top of all that, he blames the leftists
(18:36):
'cause it's sort of a right wing ideology.
He blames leftists for putting on the brakes
and he sort of mocks it as the irony is
that they call themselves progressives
and that they're all about progress.
When in reality, they're slowing this thing down
with all their egalitarian equality, democracy,
(18:59):
and like, hey, let's see what people think about all this
and they're like, no, we need to run this like a,
what's the fucking nerd shit Silicon Valley
where they say move fast and break things.
That's what they wanna do.
And they wanna turn America into
the capitalist monarchy controlled by a CEO
to rapidly accelerate the roll out of the singularity.
(19:20):
- God, okay.
(gun firing)
- All right, that's it.
That's it for the free preview for the free feed lovers.

I mean, if you don't know what this is,
it's a philosophy that threatens our very existence.
And I mean that in the least sensational way possible.
And I'm gonna walk all of yous through how this works,
how the digital matrix fixed into all these nerds.
Nerds galore, Peter Teild, Nick Land, Curtis Jarvan,
(20:03):
Steve Bannon, and your boy, you know what I'm talking about.
All these guys are kind of in on it.
And we kind of kick around the idea of
if there's anything we can do,
who could be the good guys in this situation maybe,
how the singularity fits into various theories
that I've talked about over the years.
And like insane connections to the order of nine angles.
(20:26):
If you've listened to my shows on the order of nine angles,
you know that weren't for some crazy discussions
