I am all for genuinely embracing novel thinking about the people and events we find ourselves among, including Trump who I don't think of as evil. I'm only going to address his and Washington's naive worship of people I do think of as evil, people like Musk and Thiel. I can only speak from my direct experience of how "tech" leaders run their businesses and with what kind of (in)competence. I don't understand the right's embrace of this unAmerican creep who genuinely is not applying any discretion or analysis; he's slashing and burning infrastructure he is rich enough to live without. https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-doge-cuts-federal-worker-firings-government-plan-2025-4?utm_source=Iterable&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Business%20Insider%20Today,%20April%2021,%202025

Excellent perspective, DK! Good to see you tossing the proverbial hat in the ring without fear.

Such a fascinating time to be alive as history unfolds. The truth does not hurt unless it is supposed to. The level of dystopia is astounding and will be the downfall of many, however, those that can adapt to the brutal truth will be part of a historic awakening and transformation.

Good luck in your endeavors!
