This is excellent, but how do we convey this to the average citizen? Because this is written at a comprehension level that is above average (sadly). HOW do we parse these concepts into easily digestible, shareable bites so that real people understand it?

I'm so glad to be part of your subscriber base. I've read 2 of your essays and i must say that I have sensed most of what you've written about after reading the Project 2025 document. My bewilderment is this: if I can see what's going on with this coup of our government, then why can't others like me see it? Surely there's more of us than them (DOGE et al.) I come from the belief that the TRUTH needs no defense - but our democracy does! How can we, as the PEOPLE, prevent this takeover by AI and the techno-oligarchs? It hasn't worked in Russia with rebellions against Putin and his oligarchs, which begs the question, what can we do that's better with a positive outcome? I am sharing your site with as many people as I can and will continue to do so. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Thank you. Really, thank you. I am still internalising much of your message in this and past essays. Its revelationary and makes deep sense of clawing nagging thoughts that I couldn’t shape before. The revelation is still settling, sweeping aside layers of atrophied dust, so I can't marshal a meaningful comment, yet. But, THANK YOU. I am profoundly glad to read your insight. It feels like a veil has been lifted.

Everything you've written - today, yesterday, before yesterday - is hard to read. Not because it's not well presented, but because it's essentially and in its particulars impossible to refute, and it shows a deepening nightmare. This is what is happening, and this is what it means.

Please keep going... you are structuring awareness and understanding for those who seek awareness and understanding. As for those who seek neither, there's nothing much to say. God Help America.

Absolutely true. Without control of algorithms we are often at their mercy.
