If you just stop and think for a second, the logical part of your brain will tell you that OF COURSE sociopaths will dominate any organization, because they are focused on obtaining power by standing at the top and are willing to do whatever it takes to do so, while normal people are vaguely concerned about the theoretical purpose of said organization. As the sociopaths/SJWs/pedophiles/satanists/etc gradually infiltrate, they promote each other so that together they can exploit the peasants at the bottom more freely until they reach critical mass, when the organization can no longer fulfill its nominal purpose and collapses.

The only question is whether the logical part of your brain can thus overpower the emotional part, which definitely does not want this to be true.

Of course it doesn't. All of these global organizations are fundamentally Orwellian: their purpose is the exact opposite of their name. Actual facts make it clear that masks are ridiculous. Actual facts make it clear that COVID is just the flu. So why are these organizations screaming panic at the top of their lungs? Because our elites have been busy shitting up Western Civilization by printing huge amounts of money and giving it to themselves and importing low IQ/low skill immigrants, and they need something to blame the impending collapse of the economy on that doesn't involve the peasants grabbing their pitchforks.

Serious question for you, Castle. I think you are good person who would like to Make America Great Again. What would be necessary for this to actually happen, in a moderate level of detail? I think once you begin to write this out your viewpoint may change.

Shit, that's a good question. I'll think on it.

October 13 -- Look at the polls, trust the experts.
October 20 -- We have new polls and new experts. Ignore the old polls and old experts.

The experts to be trusted are the experts WE deem experts. Therefore, WE are the super experts. Trust me, I'm an expert.

So many permutations of what could happen. SCOTUS is going right. One or two more nominees from 2020-2024 and it's STACKED. With SCOTUS, executive branch on the right, Senate holds and if house goes right as well... who knows what could happen.

Political violence against conservatives and rioting / unrest will be one of the biggest immediate challenges when Trump wins. The right will probably use it as an opportunity to put into place some strong anti-rioting laws / enforcement.

That would be a good move, but any legislation should simultaneously strengthen protections of free speech and the right to peacefully protest. We need both.

Power play impeachments without a real crime will be totally impotent weapons. The left used it as a political weapon to hurt Trump's reelection chances. Once that is gone such illegitimate impeachments have no power. Trump can simply ignore any such future impeachments and focus on his agenda.

Domestically, economy / COVID, big tech, platinum plan, nuclear energy, Antifa and China will be on the agenda. This is exactly what Trump should do.
  • Open up economy, get it roaring again so people are happy and feel they have purpose
  • Shut down big tech censorship (use Section 230 ruling and/or anti-monopoly law)
  • Spend significant time/money helping black America. This demographic is slowly shifting more right. (Blexit / Candace Owens, and others are helping this movement.) It's the right thing to do and it will help with future elections.
  • Improve our energy situation - the Green Nuclear Energy Deal
  • Squash the violent left that wants to violently oppose democracy in action
  • Lastly, going beyond domestic affairs, take on China. Mainly because they are a threat. But it also keeps our focus off the venom in the media / social media

I agree with all of these ideas in principle. But the devil is in the details:
  • What does it mean to get the economy 'roaring' again? If we have massive wealth inequality, is it roaring for everyone? How many people actually find meaning and purpose in their corporate drone jobs?
  • How do we help Black America? If the massive transfer of wealth in their direction over the past 50 years has not worked, why should more work now? Why do we care more about Black America than Poor White America, or Latino America? What about Mulatto America?
  • How do you improve our green energy situation? We don't have enough lithium or cobalt to run everything on batteries, even if we had nuclear plants to power them. If we decide to burn less energy, who has to reduce their consumption the most?
  • How does one 'squash' the violent left? Do you censor them, or jail them? What about people like Elrood and Pretzelle who are inciting violence online?
  • How do we 'take on' China? I assume you do not mean nuclear war. Do we stop trading with them altogether? Do we expel Chinese foreign nationals? Both of these involve definite winners and losers within America.

In contrast, your idea to shut down Big Tech is much more concrete, and I definitely think we should do both.

We’re in the late republic phase (Rome’s institutions failing post 133 BC). That doesn’t mean conspiratorial thinking will help. Anti-monopoly legislation and gradually increasing interest rates back to 3-5% would undo most of the economic problems we face. House prices are higher even as interest rates are low. Why? Because banks offer no returns, so the wealthy only put money into real estate and stocks. And the poor don’t see a means to find returns large enough to save for a home

This could easily be undone, but crying “the Jews” or “the globalist” doesn’t turn back the clock. It just alienates sane people who could otherwise be amenable to fixing them excesses of our system. We also need deep reform to our institutions. Open primaries, elections with rank choice voting, etc

Basically, allowing more opinions into the system than just republicans and democrats, who are both bought and paid for
