You spend your whole adult life in crypto-anarchist circles, actually shipping real work, even getting your name in the white paper, and then for ten years you're compromised not by broken crypto but by the state doing what it does: leverage, intel-grade sextortion, strings, control, kept secret the whole time. So the irony is brutal: publicly you're "trust nobody, assume compromise, OPSEC is religion" while privately you're living inside someone else's threat model. And the ending is perfect: you do not get exposed by cryptanalysis or a confession, but by a third party's bad digital hygiene, sloppy passwords, leaky inbox, tragedy with clown makeup.

It's even worse, it shows some people are even dumber than an LLM. nostr:nevent1qqsv39yx94rng4fgzm3048unhcqv087m3pjyfx5zggp3xzphtpx4rnqprpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumr0wpczuum0vd5kzmp0qgs0w2xeumnsfq6cuuynpaw2vjcfwacdnzwvmp59flnp3mdfez3czpsrqsqqqqqphq2gtg

I know this guy's type, convinced the world is falling apart because of some grand, disciplined scheme to destabilize society and hand power to a chosen few.

He has it totally backwards. Chaos doesn’t need a mastermind. It’s woven into the human story, like weeds through cracked stone. Entropy doesn’t plan. It just happens. Effortless and constant. The urge to tear down, to rebel, to destroy... it comes as naturally as breathing.

But holding civilization together—that’s where the real struggle lies. It’s the uphill fight, the push against the tide. It takes grit, determination, and the stubborn will to resist the pull of disorder. It takes planning. It takes convincing and pleading and leading and doing. Civilization endures because enough people choose discipline over decay, pushing back against the easy slide into chaos. Real order doesn’t come from the top down. It grows from men who purposefully cling to old ways that kept the world upright, forged not by force, but by the hard-won wisdom of generations. You want to see planners, look to civilization.

There is no question that a relatively small group of zionist bankers and politicians run America, and use that power to further their goals (and murder thousands if not millions of innocent people in the process). It's not a grand scheme. It's just the latest in a line of empire games, and part o...
