Hopium is Worse Than Blackpills
False hope is genuinely worse than hopelessness. A hopeless man might find hope in Christ, a man with false hope seeks no absolution or understanding.
It is ever-so-common, even in the (far) alt-right space, to see people still vainly seeking hope in Donald Trump’s 2nd election. They think he’s going to solve all the world’s problems and fix all of society’s ills in a 2nd term when he did not even deliver on his 1st term promises. Many will downplay it and say, “Well he’s gonna do x and y which will at least stop the worst of it,” but he didn’t deliver on term 1 promises. Why would you expect him — now when everything is much worse and much more crazy than 2017 — to suddenly do more than he did his first term?
This is the same man that authored Operation Warpspeed, the greatest crime against humanity in human history. He is still unrepentant about it. He still wants you to get the clot shot to this day. He also said, “no” to a unique historical position he was in: that is how the Jan 6. psyop shut-down a vote to merely investigate election integrity in 2020, and we all know how integral that was.
He also invited all those same people to DC, only to get on camera and say, “Go home!” after they were already there, from across the country! I’m not going to bother with links on any of this, mostly because they’ve largely been scrubbed and it’s too hard to track them down. If you don’t know these facts by now (I don’t give a flying fuck about libtards asking for sources), God help you.
Trump could’ve ascended to God-Caesar tier by Jan 6, 2021, and called in the military to vet the election and gone through all the steps and procedures under his power to “uphold democracy”, or just overturned it and become Caesar summarily. He had the popularity and power to do either one, but he declined. Probably he knows what happened to old Julius and wanted to avoid that.
He not only declined the opportunity, but left his supporters to rot as political prisoners in democrat cells without due process. He has still said absolutely zilch, zero, nada about them. Y’know, those people he baited into a trap, then hung out to dry, then still won’t even talk about…
If you still think this man is your hope, God help you. A political realignment is happening now, with the technocrats and other major figures (including Tulsi Gabbard and Elon Musk) switching their horse mid-race to the Trumpenator, and so many people are calling this good news. Normally I agree with the tales from Absurdistan, but this pill was too hard to swallow.
The political realignment we are witnessing right now is nothing more than rats fleeing their sinking ship, and jumping onto the next ship to spread their disease. That is all it is, it is not some bright promise for the future: it is rather the guarantee that a Trump administration will be horribly compromised by the same interests running the world currently. It’s the same thing, just less bad™.
It may be less severe, but has another problem, and that is the paralysis.
The Paralysis Analysis
The more false hope people have, the less inclined to action they are. The slower the pace of our inevitable downfall in The West, the less urgency people feel. The more changes seem compatible with popular sentiments, the less disapproval there is.
Enter Donald Trump. He has basically done the same thing as any other president, only he’s talked a big game.
Trump has added a tremendous amount to the national debt portfolio. In his first term, he added almost as much as Obama in 2 terms numerically It’s easy to forget that Trump pumped the most numeric debt growth in the shortest time in US history (Until Biden, but many of the real numbers are deeply buried now). Many still consider him to be “fiscally responsible,” what a laugh. He is also the most staunchly pro-Israel candidate we have seen in some time, saying Israel should “finish the job” on making Gaza a parking lot.
The truth is, Trump is going to win 2024. Mark my words, he will without doubt win in 2024. The reasons are manifold:
Biden can’t even run because he’s so senile, he’s barely even been seen publicly in months, and nobody has even bothered to talk about him for 2+ months
Kamala is disastrously unpopular, and her VP pick Tim Walz is a giant middle-finger to the electorate he’s supposed to appeal to. Nobody likes or respects either of them, not even leftists (besides the most braindead)
A massive political realignment is happening, from Musk to Peter Thiel to former democrats like Tulsi Gabbard and RFK jr. Even the teamster union won’t endorse Kamalot
Trump has rapidly become the common-sense candidate and is crossing party lines much more than previously. The problem is, he’s making tons of concessions to do it.
In short, Trump is going to win. The real power-players are afraid of what might happen if a 2nd election in a row gets taken in broad daylight, defeating a global champion for good. They want the more dangerous base to be pacified right now as anger and despair are at all-time-highs. Installing Kamalot now would be tantamount to a declaration of war. Which is still possible, but not very likely now. Killary will especially not be on board with another woman becoming president before her, and she just about runs the demonrats.
Copium
Don’t get caught up in election fever. Don’t think Trump will substantially change anything. He is practically guaranteed to win, and he is practically guaranteed to be even more of a let-down than he was 1st term based on his rhetoric, track record, and recent coalition-building. Sure he won’t do as much extreme damage as Kamalot, but he won’t roll anything back much nor will he stop all the new devilry. It’ll just be a slower progression, not a reversal under Trump. The only Western country I see with genuine political hopes right now is Germany.
In the most optimistic case, the political state of Germany is only going to really start turning around in 1-2 election cycles from now, by which time the migrants will be over 30% of the population so it is too late even then. A hopefully hopeful trend but not enough. At that point it is a war of all-against-all, no political solution.
In the Anglosphere it is much worse than that. Australia is lost, Canada is an actual joke now and incredibly bad, New Zealand is a pandemic treaty goner, the UK is becoming the real setting of Mad Max, and the US is being systematically flooded with migrants at a dramatically faster rate than what even Europe has seen since President Brandon. I’ve learned that with these things, the highest estimates you hear are actually accurate, and that’s 30+ million in 4 years. They are flooding small towns across the US now. When Alabama is getting them, you know it’s everywhere.
Conclusion
Nobody is coming to save you. No-one is going to stop this, no election is going to change this. Due process and the rule of law are suspended indefinitely: you need only look at what happened during covid and how much covid lawsuits and criminal cases have been suppressed to know that nothing is going to be done in the legal system.
It’s your problem to deal with now, don’t look to anyone else to fix it for you. The days of a functional government are over, and we’re decades-past the times where it could’ve been reformed.
It’s up to us now, and this is why hopium is worse than blackpills. Hopium keeps you hanging onto false hope while you keep getting boiled to death in the pot; blackpills at least tell you the truth, that you’re being slowly killed and there’s nothing you can do about it. But the latter part is what is wrong with the blackpill: hopelessness. There is a lot you can do about it. There’s an incredible amount we can all do about it, but we have to break the old frame and model to not only see that, but especially to pursue those alternatives. You must free your mind: imagine what can be unburdened by what has been. That’s why I’m voting Kamalot, personally.
Stop huffing ridiculous hopium narratives. Remember when they were saying that Trump was gonna bust all the pedos and fraudsters and politicians circa 2020 and get all the smoking guns and the courts were gonna overturn it and everything was gonna be alright? That didn’t happen. Trump winning is similarly not going to substantially improve your lot in life, and in the outside chance he loses you know that’s the end.
So stop pretending and start doing. Do something, anything, just stop selling hopium. Blackpill at the very least. Acknowledge the truth and do something even on a small-scale. Plant a garden, keep chickens, form a local community that will fight for what’s theirs.
But don’t have feet of clay, which is hopium. This world is not the be-all-end-all. Found yourself on the rock.
Matthew 7: 24-27; “Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.
And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.”
Shalom.
