Why Politics Is Breaking Down In The West
Why Western Leaders Call Their Voters Threats to Democracy
Every week, we see Western elites call their own voters "threats to democracy". Just a few days ago, MSNBC ran a segment by two authors calling white rural Trump supporters a threat to democracy.
Rural White Rage is a joke. What they're describing is Critical Thinking. Common Sense is frowned upon. Since I was a teenager, I've been telling people, "If I want Your Opinion, I'll give it to You!" It appears that the 📺 stole my idea‼️👀pic.twitter.com/C8qvPMrXA0

Now a former venture capitalist has explained in the X thread below, the phenomenon we're seeing now in both the U.S. and the U.K.: why the elites are turning against their voters. We've shared that thread below. Following that, we'll wrap up with a brief trading note.
Why Politics Is Breaking Down Around The Western World
Politics is not so different to Engineering or Coding, you use the simplest method to get the job done.

Nation states arise from wars and conflicts. In war all you need is the classic ‘Friend Enemy’ distinction.
This is the origins of all Politics and never goes away. pic.twitter.com/6kzKAAKgWe
Rule of Law assumes that everyone is a Friend. Otherwise you are in that Nation.

Genghis Khan could shift from ‘Friend/Enemy’ to ‘Rule of Law’ because everyone was a friend of Genhkiks Khan.
Then you're just arguing over how friends optimise the system we all benefit from. pic.twitter.com/0buTAgiWbI
But two very fundamental shifts have been ramping up in the West that now make this impossible: Fiat money - splitting the Asset class from Workers and multiculturalism.

Since Fiat money the interests of Workers and Asset holders have diverged greatly. pic.twitter.com/DmznC4nawv
This is why everyone can see a Native monoculture > Integration > Multiculturalism, and politicians keep noticing at least half this equation - but do nothing. pic.twitter.com/KK89gJQAXN

If the core population ever withdraw their cooperation from the system, by say - converting to bitcoin, not voting, ignoring absurd laws or reject the latest media pushed mind viruses, they would be left ruling by nothing but force.

Thus the regime is in panic mode, there are lots of us, and very few of them. They either need to start giving up a little bit of their power & wealth - or find a way to crush us.

Once a nation has reverted to the ‘Friend Enemy’ distinction, rule of law is gone.
— Dan 🇬🇧 (@Kingbingo_) March 2, 2024
At this point - the most likely way out is conflict.
I'm not advocating - but the ruling class are gearing up for it.
They never willingly gives up wealth or power - they will always escalate first pic.twitter.com/3F2Idpj0hG
