I didn’t stay up to watch the speech last night from Mar-a-Lago. My sense is that it has implicitly set up the formal announcement of the Second American Republic, and the bankruptcy and abolition of USA Inc. It is too early to state all these things plainly to all, but that time will come. The “white hats” are constructing their own illusion show that takes the hypnotic deceit of the “black hats” and converges it with reality, but at the same time sets up all kinds of traps for the enemy. Our desire is for a simple and smooth function that journeys from dark to light, but that’s not how the world works.
In this little video I draw parallels to my former world of mathematics, and “wiggly” versus “dotty” functions. “Wiggly” functions can be “integrated” (i.e. “area under the curve”) with what is called Riemann integration, whereas “dotty” ones (and indeed all functions) can be analysed using Lebesgue integration. The former is taught at high school, whereas the latter is strictly for university level students. When I look at the commentary of many people on geopolitics, I see their desire for simple continuous “wiggly” narratives, when we live in a “dotty” kind of world. As such, they find it difficult to make meaningful sense of what is happening.
A Trump speech can be seen through a more cybernetic lens. All kinds of timelines are unfolding, there are decisions to be made by both sides, and probability functions of all the paths through possible futures. What is said affects all those possible outcomes. How you or I make sense of the speech is only one small part of its full impact. The military planners are optimising to the final goals, and little fragments of information are planted into the speech to achieve those ends. Once you frame it as a “dotty” type of functional problem in a multi-dimensional narrative space, then you are no longer constrained by needing the “ideal” outcome right away by taking the last “wiggle” to success.
