The Kamikazetariat

As a long-period resonating culture, the Kamikazetariat seems novel & sui generis every time it recurs. The mechanism of its emergence is a net abundance sufficient to sustain & tolerate the toxic luxury of ego categorically overruling reason to the point of collective self-destruction. Once such a society's operating paradigm becomes sufficiently morbidly divorced from reality its rise becomes virtually automatic as both a psychic firewall against anomie & as a focal point of unity, comfort & pride.

Its core dogma, whether its garb be religious or secular, is mysticism fixated on an apocalypse-utopia narrative ... betting the proverbial mortgage & first-born on the ultimate mulligan: that all that messy icky physics & history can be literally wished away. Sufficiently mindless & heroic spectacles of power, violence & epic waste will compel reality itself to obey the faith so that it too can become another of the Kamikazetariat's adoring slaves.

“We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you’re studying that reality — judiciously, as you will — we’ll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that’s how things will sort out. We’re history’s actors . . . and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.” 

What are actually created are prefab disasters intended to reap dividends for the usual suspects via the ever-popular yearning to evade unwanted reality, which are then enforced ever more vigorously the worse they malfunction. Obviously every new failure is due to a deficit of zeal or blood-lust on the part of the glorious elite - their sacred Ragnarok can only be betrayed or perverted by nefarious infidels, as it is incapable of failing by definition.

One way or another, every Kamikazetariat always self-aborts. Not hard to understand why there would be a perennial collective blind-spot for a deviant culture too loathsome to cherish & too suicidal to persist.

Any fascist regime deficient in either the means, the will, or the aptitude to censor, jail or terminate non-compliant members of the press & judiciary is doomed to fail.

Quantum Gravity Synthesis Exclusion Conjecture

That an apt & predictive theory for phenomena described as resulting from Quantum Gravity requires a third theoretical model - separate from either Quantum Theory or Relativity - due to the scale of discretion between both theories, which may be predicted to be beyond functional synthesis due to the fundamentally unique properties of gravity.

Note how the former directly spawns the latter.

Today - January 9th - Reykjavik is above the freezing point.

Renowned recent acts of ritualistic mass civic suicide (America's 2016 election & Brexit) may very well be direct psychological results of the ongoing saga of latent raw menace that is anthropogenic climate change.

As news pertaining to it becomes increasingly terrifying the more it is researched, a psychic tipping point is reached beyond which the default response is ambivalence.

TRUISM / SPOILER: This ambivalence is destined to invert/evaporate wherever Gaia's ungentle version of karma makes either avoidance or denial physically impossible.

Some victims just want to watch the System burn.
