48 Laws of Power | Robert Greene | The Cult

https://rumble.com/vokqww-48-laws-of-power-robert-greene-the-cult.html

In this video we listen to Robert Greene Author of 48 Laws of Power, a 1998 clut classic…

I first heard about 48 Laws of Power in the early 200o’s while working Silicon Valley for many San Francisco startups and large corporations.

At first, as a young engineer I dismissed it thinking it sounds like cynical view of the world… However, over time I came around to the ideal that people are very petty, power hungry, and ultimately will float in and out of your live on breeze as it is politically or functional convenient to do so.

So many people were either trying to start or join the next big startup, so people changed jobs, often, every 1-2 years as their stocks vested, or they no longer thought this startup was going anywhere, so they’d jump on the next wannabe google or facebook looking for what they called Unicorns…

As I to participated in the hunt for Unicorns, it definitely seemed like there was a rhyme and a reason for most peoples behavior… I became extremely fascinated with psychology, economics, as they effect corporations and individuals.

So, many co-workers would mention the book 48 Laws of power would every so often. While I’m not convinced the 48 Laws of Power are hard and fast laws… There is a nugget of truth to the ideal there is something guiding people’s behavior that looks or behaves like a law. This law I concluded was peoples “Emotions”. Emotion in contrast to logic or reason was the common denominator, because not everyone was logical, or was of sound reason, or sound mind, but everyone even the homeless people who slept on my front door step were extremely emotional.

In this video Robert Greene gives a lecture or a tech talk to Google Employees…

48 Laws of Power reminds me of Cult thinking, and in fact was a Cult Classic among startups engineers, and technocrats of the 2000’s, which reminded me of many religions including Mormonism, and more specifically Scientology… as the 48 Laws of Power the reminded me of L. Ron Hubbard’s Dianetics which was the book L. Ron Hubbard wrote, and because of Dianetics financial success inspired L. Ron Hubbard to go onto create a religion of his own Scientology.

Anyways, Robert Greene goes on to say we are subject to the evolution of Brain’s Biology, which create both ancient brain or the brain steam which regulates our breathing, heart rate, and hormones, which in turn create our emotions. While our Frontal Cortex is relatively new and unique to mammals, humans, great apes, monkeys ext have the largest Frontal Cortex or Frontal Lobe, Humans with the most neurons of all. This is what gives us our Language and ability to reason, or think instead of simply just react. But even Humans primarily act on emotions, but with time most people learn to control their emotions with logic and reason to varying degrees.

Because of this, even though people have Language, Logic and Reason, we are still governed by emotions, Joy, Happiness, Sadness, Envy, Greed, Lust, Gluttony, Anger, Boredom ext. I would add in many Religion’s each Emotion can be characterized by some kind of Sin we must learn to overcome, avoid and or limit or control.

In Psychology we learn how to manipulate others by understanding to manipulate other peoples emotions, or appealing to the appetites, or bribe them with creature comforts…

In technology and entertainment we’ve developed techniques to use peoples sense’s to optimize their behavior threw conditioning, and rewarding them with dopamine traps when they complete simple tasks, ie click a button, to watch a video, or buy something which is similar to a sugar high without the sugar.

In economics money stimulates the same part of the brain cocain does, so gambling or day trading can easily create adrenaline addicts, who will could lose control of their faculties as they rush to trade or gamble on everything.

So what seemed like a job in Silicon Valley, or Wall Street, Washington DC, or Hollywood quickly turns into something else, and game for, prestige, money and power.

But because People do not live alone these microcosms form larger organizations like cults, clubs, religions, corporations, industry and governments, countries, and ethnicities, each with their own unique culture filled with art, music, literature, ethics, morals and values. Which eventually create something even larger ie Generations of people, who encompass all cultures.

Robert Greene describes these generational cultures as a Zeitgeist, which each generation is composed of people born within about 22 years or so. And there is about 5 generations living at the same time, each generation/zeitgeist form a cycle, of revolution, enlightenment, stagnation, depression which results in another revolution starting the cycle all over again.

Greene concludes by saying as of 2018, the Millennial Generation or perhaps the Gen Z may be the generation to start the next Revolution, if we haven’t already. And if you want to be successful going forward you should figure out how to ride that wave of Revolution.

In sum, Maybe Greene is right.

Clubhouse | MLM | Multi Level Marketing


In this video we hear Jason Calcanis calling out Multi Level Marketing(MLM) Guru’s on club house for selling fraudulent courses. Specifically Jason claims he was asked to sell a master class for $4,000-$8,000.

Jason’s initial reaction was to question why would anyone pay 4-8k, what are they actually selling… Jason talks to the host of Coffeezilla about this because coffeezilla youtube channel is about all greifters scamming people on youtube… Grifters include Dan Bilzerian, Brian Rose, Tai Lopez, Grant Cardone, Tony Robbins, JT Fox, and many others…

The two discuss how the scam works, who is targeted and how damaging MLM is. Jason also questions weather or not hosts on the ABC “Shark Tank” such as Kevin O’Leary, Robert Herjavec, Daymond John are actually wealthy. Calcanis points out Robert has copied him several times and engages in MLM schemes as well. Then asks the question if these Shark’s (Minus Mark Cuban and Chris Sacca) if they are as wealthy as they say they are, why will they show up for anything for a $50k pay check.

The two compare notes, and discuss the obvious scams we all are witnessing on youtube, and now on Club house.

Psychological Warfare



Psychological Warfare, also known as Ideological Subversion is taught to children, in order to use your enemies own children against your enemies…

Ideologically Possession is used in Psychological Warfare. American & the west fought two world wars and The Cold War against Communism in the 20th century, but in the 21st century the war has evolved from a Kinetic War to a War on Terrorism, which is a War on Hearts and Minds, which is the Colder Cold War also known as Cyber War. Post WW2, McCarthy’ism swept America, as Americans became aware they were being lied to, and manipulated by Communist…

McCarthy’ism drove Communism underground. Communism, and Socialism use to be a bad word in the 20th century, which is why the communist and socialist changed their names to Democrats, and Progressive in order to avoid persecution. We need McCarthy’ism as a standard Legal protocol to protect Americans from Globalist Communism, if American want to remain free. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McCarth…

Today in 2019, we see the Communist, Socialist, Progressives, Nihilist/Post Modernist are still pretending to be Democrats in order to enslave everyone. Environmentalism ie the “Green New Deal”, is a Trojan Horse designed to corrupt our Legal System by inserting communist language into our Legal Legislation under the disguise of Environmentalism ie which is Watermelon Communism… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eco-soc…

“Affirmative Action” was/is also a Trojan Horse, used to create a legally protected class of people based on Race, Creed, Gender, and Ethnicity ie Color, to legally force the government to institutionalize Racism as a part of its programing of the youth in education k-12, and University. Activist then used these legally protected labels ie minorities to divide all Americans by Race, Creed, Gender, and Ethnicity. Make victim hood or victim status a virtue, and tool to extort resources as the Unions had in the 20 century outlined in the “Rules for Radicals” written by Saul Alinsky… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affirma… , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rules_f…

LGBT’ism coupled with Feminism, and Racism are other labels ie tools used to destroy and divide the family unit, which are the building blocks of Society. The only thing standing in the Global Communist way, is Patriotism, and Nationalism ie Unity. MAGA, Make America Great Again represents American Patriotism, and anti globalism, anti-communism, and anti-nihilism…

The Communist Manifesto outlined their Goals: “””

1. Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes.

2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.

3. Abolition of all rights of inheritance.

4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.

5. Centralisation of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.

6. Centralisation of the means of communication and transport in the hands of the State.

7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the State; the bringing into cultivation of waste-lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.

8. Equal liability of all to work. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.

9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of all the distinction between town and country by a more equable distribution of the populace over the country.

10. Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of children’s factory labour in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production, &c, &c.

Life & Death | 5 Stages of Grief



Concept Art illustrated by Joshua Lindsay, thoughts about Life & Death.

In this illustration, I was thinking about Life & Death as I illustrated these lovely ladies from Comic Con dressed up in Cosplay ie Super Hero’s. As a child of the 1980’s, growing up towards the end of the cold war, Comic books were as popular then as Comic book movies are today in 2020. But in these stories, as a young child I was reading about Life & Death, these super hero’s were like Gods or Demi Gods, who decided who lives and who dies.

I also remembered during this time, my grand father died. I remember reading about the 5 stages of Grief people go threw when someone who played a fundamental role in your life dies… including contemplating my own mortality, as both a 5 year old, and today as as 30 something.

Which reminds me of what many Religious Leaders and followers talk about in their lectures and writings, which lead me to try to understand the Super Natural, or the Universe in general. The TV show Lost did this as well.

Questions always arise, when I am thinking about the Universe and my place in it. Questions like, Who am I? Where did I come from? Why am I here? What happens to our Spirt when we die? Do we have a Spirt, or is this life all we have?… These are all questions one asks, as they awake up from whatever delusions, or day dream, disguise as belief system, or an ideology.

Comic books are manifestation of the Artist & Writers imagination, who appear to be contemplating Good v Evil, Life & Death as well.

It seems to me “Self Delusion” is like a spell we cast upon ourselves to avoid contemplating our own mortality, and the harsh reality of our Lives;

The scariest aspect of this thought, is not knowing.

This video, was an attempt to take myself threw the 5 stages of Grief. The five stages, denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance.

Some never get over stages 1 and 2, Denial and Anger, which blinds them to the big picture, the grand scheme of things in this thing called life.
