SHNEAKO - Professor Jiang Tells SNEAKO How To Master Geopolitics

00:00:00.000 so i mean the problem with young people nowadays is people aren't encouraged to read you go to

00:00:04.000 university and like people don't even read books anymore they're you know people are encouraged to

00:00:07.360 read like you know essays or excerpts but not actual books so it's really really important

00:00:12.000 to read books the greatest act of rebellion that you can do in today's world okay is to reclaim

00:00:16.480 your attention it really is because the way that they keep control over you is by monopolizing

00:00:20.800 your attention right by constantly feeding you distractions after distractions so the greatest

00:00:25.440 we've got actually what you can do is to sit by yourself solitary read a book for hours and hours

00:00:30.880 and just ignore the world and reclaim your attention reclaim your mind and you said that

00:00:35.440 you were i saw your uh your video about growing up in toronto and getting bullied and obviously i can

00:00:41.760 relate i mean i probably don't look as asian now but i grew up super and i i got some of the same

00:00:47.440 things and so did my mother um and so when you were alienated reading these books what was the

00:00:52.560 most transformative literature that you found um you know when i was young i i read a lot

00:01:01.200 um so um in the first stage i was a huge fan of asik asimov because i was really into science

00:01:07.520 fiction and i just loved the way that he looked at the world from a macro perspective so he was

00:01:13.120 not a great writer but he had a very vivid imagination and i really appreciated that and

00:01:17.600 So reading Isaac Asimov just really helped to expand my imagination.

00:01:23.460 For the longest time, I was a huge fan of Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead, and Alice Shrugged,

00:01:27.580 because I also believed in individualism.

00:01:30.120 I also believed I was persecuted.

00:01:31.420 I was a persecuted genius who would one day show the world that I was right.

00:01:35.820 So as a teenager, I was really into Ayn Rand.

00:01:39.560 And then I got into John Steinbeck a lot because I was really into his stories.

00:01:49.160 So I've been through different phases.

00:01:53.360 I was also a really avid comic book fan.

00:01:56.840 So I loved the X-Men.

00:01:58.300 When I was young, I read the X-Men all the time.

00:02:01.080 They're my favorite characters because the world of the X-Men seemed much more real than the world of Spider-Man or the Avengers.

00:02:08.300 right? Because Spider-Man, Avengers, it's pretty simple good versus evil world. Whereas X-Men,

00:02:13.660 there's actually a lot of more ambiguity. Like, is Magneto a really good person or a bad person,

00:02:18.360 right? Because Magneto is trying to save his people. And Magneto is being realistic about

00:02:23.260 the intentions of human beings. Like, if we just trust human beings, they're going to come kill

00:02:27.740 all of us, right? So I was really into X-Men comics for a long, long time. Yeah.

00:02:32.920 What sort of information and books would you recommend people like us read?

00:02:41.200 You know, so what I would recommend is to read novels, long form novels, because if you read long form novels, they build a universe and you go into this universe and you're really able to expand your imagination.

00:03:00.180 you really expand your empathy so um it's to read you go you go to university and like people

00:03:06.100 don't even read books anymore they're you know people are encouraged to read like you know

00:03:09.180 essays or excerpts but not actual books so it's really really important to read books and so

00:03:15.380 certain authors that i i recommend just to get started because they're so much fun okay

00:03:19.080 i love james elroy i'm not sure if you've read james elroy but la confidential uh you know he's

00:03:25.320 much fun so james elroy e-l-l-r-o-y okay so he's so i recommend him i recommend john carrie

00:03:33.160 uh who is a spy author um i recommend um anna max tate um m-a-x-t-e-d because she writes romance

00:03:42.680 novels but but um um i recommend science fiction um some good science fiction is john wineham

00:03:49.960 w-y-n-d-h-a-m um he he's he's a lot of fun but you know like like the greatest act of rebellion

00:03:59.160 that you can do in today's world okay is to reclaim your attention it really is because the

00:04:04.620 way that they keep control over you is by monopolizing your attention right by constantly

00:04:08.400 feeding you distractions after distractions so the greatest we've got act of rebellion you can do is

00:04:13.960 sit by yourself solitary read a book for hours and hours and just ignore the world and reclaim

00:04:20.200 your attention reclaim your mind um and and so i mean just get into reading reading i mean and

00:04:27.880 like you know i started reading reading books because i started reading comic books but then i

00:04:31.680 i started to um upgrade myself over over time so i mean like don't i mean like i teach the

00:04:38.140 the iliad i teach the divine comedy uh these are the great books i think everyone should read but

00:04:43.300 you know, read them when you're ready. Right. Um, so, um, so yeah. Divine comedy. I remember you

00:04:49.060 wrote that. That was, uh, Don, uh, Ibn Rushd. Oh, that was by somebody in the Islamic empire,

00:04:54.560 right? Or he, he influenced Dante's divine comedy, Ibn Rushd. Yeah, that's right. That's

00:04:59.740 right. Yes. I remember. Yeah. And yeah, what about, um, I'm a big fan of Ernest Hemingway.

00:05:05.440 He has a lot of novels. You're, you're a fan. Yeah. Yeah. I'm a huge fan, but, uh, Ernest

00:05:11.380 Hemingway he's hard to read um you know you you you actually have to like sit down and close read

00:05:17.840 his works um his best of course is the sun also rise yeah that's the best one yeah exactly yeah

00:05:24.400 but i mean you you have to you have to be a very good reader to read like bernie's Hemingway um

00:05:29.700 whereas whereas like you know if you want to start out then then i would just say get in the habit

00:05:33.900 of sitting down for like long for like hours and hours and just focus on on a book yeah Hemingway

00:05:40.020 difficult because he doesn't spell it out for you which i appreciate i like when uh authors like he

00:05:45.540 wrote a short story about a woman who had to get an abortion but at no point in the short story

00:05:49.300 didn't mention it and the sun also rises i'll just give it away he in world war one the main

00:05:54.340 character the protagonist he has an injury where he can't have sex because uh his grenade got rid

00:05:59.540 of his balls and so like that you know that impotence affects all of his relationships and

00:06:06.260 all of his conversations so that type of uh that's what but yeah it takes a lot of energy to to pay

00:06:12.820 attention to so so you think a lot of people don't find they find that like uh andrew tay was saying

00:06:19.140 that you know reading is gay and that you shouldn't pay attention to it that it's a waste of time

00:06:22.660 you disagree okay yeah um i think reading is fundamental to being human right and again i mean

00:06:31.320 like i don't exaggerate but like you know if there's one thing that you can do to rebel against

00:06:35.420 a system do reclaim your own individuality it's by reading okay especially reading is good sorry

00:06:41.380 yeah yeah no i mean like it's a mirror into yourself and into the world okay i mean like

00:06:46.820 like like it's also a light where you read um you're in connection with the author you're in

00:06:52.180 connection with the work and you are enhancing your own individuality you're shining your

00:06:56.160 individuality onto the world because because when you read it's your own interpretation right

00:07:00.340 the reading a book a really good book is a portal into the divine

00:07:06.100 right so have you read uh have you read any of the quran

00:07:12.020 um you know i've read bad translations to be honest with you yeah um i've read bad translation

00:07:19.060 but but they say the problem is you have to read the quran in arabic you have to like learn

00:07:23.160 arabic first you don't you don't have to but the translated versions yeah to understand it

00:07:27.500 completely have to understand original arabic which is is difficult and you've read the bible

00:07:33.060 as well a lot of your lectures quote the bible especially the old testament yeah that's right

00:07:39.640 okay and i remember you said that uh you found it schizophrenic and so some what was your

00:07:48.260 interpretation of the bible yeah the problem of bible is that it's the most valuable real state

00:07:53.200 in the world right it's the most valuable mental real state in the world and so people always

00:07:57.100 competing and fighting over this real state and so there are lots of redactions there's lots of um

00:08:03.500 changes to the bible over the years and it's almost impossible to figure out the true intention

00:08:09.580 of the the original writer okay but there are certain parts of the bible that's pure literature

00:08:15.020 that's and when it's pure literature what i mean is that it has the divine um flowing from it okay

00:08:21.660 So if you go and read the book of Genesis, that's divine.

00:08:24.880 The book of Genesis, it's pure literature.

00:08:28.820 And then the New Testament, like the Gospel of Mark is also pretty divine as well, but especially Genesis.

00:08:38.780 So why do you think we're here?

00:08:45.260 We're here because we want to be here.

00:08:49.840 We're here because we want to experience the universe for its infinite, eternal possibilities.

00:08:59.060 And so we're here to practice, exercise our free will.

00:09:04.460 It's only through free will can you actually expand the creativity of the universe, okay?

00:09:10.060 So, you know, I teach this when I teach about comedy.

00:09:12.360 But the difference between God and the human, even though we have God in us, is that humans can make mistakes.

00:09:20.080 Humans can die. Humans can feel pain. God cannot.

00:09:23.420 And therefore, we humans have an imagination.

00:09:26.480 Because imagination comes from pain, from suffering, from making mistakes.

00:09:32.440 And so for our creativity, we are expanding God.

00:09:36.540 So God is eternal, but it's also infinite.

00:09:39.700 So it's always expanding.

00:09:40.620 And for our creativity, for the practice of our imagination, we're expanding the possibilities of God and we're bringing joy and light and love to the universe.

00:09:50.400 So we're here to imagine things.

00:09:52.780 We're here to love each other.

00:09:55.180 So what I teach is this.

00:09:57.500 The grand secret of the universe is love is the unifying force of the universe, right?

00:10:03.320 When you love someone, you're connected to God, you're connected to everyone else.

00:10:07.060 the imagination is the animating force of the universe so when you imagine okay when you imagine

00:10:13.800 new possibilities when you tell stories when you teach you are making the universe much more alive

00:10:20.660 you're expanding the possibilities of the universe so we're here for two reasons to love to find

00:10:25.220 someone to love and to love that person deeply and unconditionally like donny loved beatrice right

00:10:31.800 and to imagine things to teach to create to learn

00:10:36.680 did you find most of this analysis through your own experience or who told you this

00:10:43.940 the divine okay because you know when you actually read the divine comedy you have

00:10:48.620 no idea you have no idea what's what's going on okay i mean i spent like six months on a stupid

00:10:54.100 thing and i had no idea what's going on and i i was i i went on youtube and i looked at every

00:11:00.720 single lecture i could find on dante and there's quite a few okay so and i it made no sense to me

00:11:05.640 what what what they were saying okay and then i just had a dream i just woke up and said oh

00:11:11.780 love okay and not only that but it said go to the section and i went to the section and i read it

00:11:19.060 and i think oh my god i'm starting to get it okay it's starting to reveal itself to me okay so so

00:11:25.720 So it's the universe communicating with me so that I can understand the divine comedy, so I can communicate with others as well.

00:11:33.540 And, you know, like that's a great secret that these elites understand.

00:11:37.380 You know, like in school, we're taught that, oh, you know, it's all just material and it's all just process.

00:11:44.200 So if you want to write an essay, just follow this work process and you'll write a great essay.

00:11:48.120 And you know what? No author, no writer in the world has ever followed this stupid process of doing research, forming a thesis, create evidence, do the structure, do the outline, edit it, blah, blah, and now you have an essay, okay?

00:12:00.700 That's what they teach you in school because that's what's convenient to teach you.

00:12:05.340 But if you look at every single genius, if you look at every person who's creative, it's all through imagination.

00:12:11.000 It's all through inspiration.

00:12:12.480 It's like you woke up one day and you have this compulsion to write something or draw something, okay?

00:12:17.680 You can't help yourself.

00:12:18.980 You're completely focused on the moment because you are being possessed by a certain entity, a muse or an angel or a god.

00:12:28.320 And that's something that the elite understand, right?

00:12:30.380 Why do they practice child sacrifice?

00:12:32.140 Why do they practice cannibalism?

00:12:33.120 Because they're trying to be possessed by a greater force that allows them the imagination to control the world.

00:12:41.040 Yeah, Leslie Wexner, back in the 80s, they're finding an article where he said that he was possessed by a Jewish demon.

00:12:45.720 And again, Leslie Wexner is the one who financed Jeffrey Epstein.

00:12:48.860 So it's like a demon, he's saying he was possessed by a demon.

00:12:52.420 And that demon's purpose was to latch on to others.

00:12:56.060 And you had a great lecture about why they do the most evil things.

00:12:59.480 And you said the most evil out there, it was a lecture about Palestine.

00:13:03.300 The most evil thing you could do is to sacrifice a child, which we're now seeing in the Epstein files.

00:13:08.740 And it's in order to attach to a realm.

00:13:10.820 And so it's like you're almost spiritually connected to all the people that have done this in history.

00:13:15.560 you're now within this realm that's right you're actually a certain part of the universe uh that

00:13:22.880 allow that gives you inspiration and intuition that's right yeah i see i can see the reflection

00:13:30.520 that your kids are running around so i don't want to hold you longer than oh you froze

00:13:35.100 was it the zoom call professor jang

00:13:40.280 Wow, that was weird timing

00:13:44.840 Maybe he went to another realm

00:13:48.480 Is he fake freezing on me?

00:13:52.200 No, he's not

00:13:52.640 There's no way

00:13:53.140 Oh, cool

00:13:58.200 Can you repeat that?

00:14:07.500 Oh, okay

00:14:08.260 No, it's

00:14:09.820 Sorry, I was just asking if you were if you were in a rush because I could see the reflection that your children were running around.

00:14:17.300 I don't want to. No, no, no. My, no, my, my, my, my, I got cut off.

00:14:23.360 So I had to switch locations. OK, perfect.

00:14:26.280 So, again, switching away, we went pretty philosophical and over there.

00:14:32.300 People were really trying to see. I haven't seen yet your lecture about crypto.

00:14:36.540 and now that the epstein files have been released they're saying that bitcoin is part of a greater

00:14:41.520 conspiracy and it's also controlled by the rothschild oh no don't nod is that true yes

00:14:45.820 yes that is correct yes yes it is a national security um strategy um to um um so look look

00:14:56.340 look at the bitcoin okay and the idea of bitcoin is that it is an open ledger where you can secretly

00:15:05.640 conduct all interactions right and so what so why bitcoin is valuable is first of all it's a store

00:15:15.320 of value it's a store of wealth because it's rare the second is that it is anonymous right

00:15:24.520 so like you're a drug dealer and you can use bitcoin right so who who does this benefit

00:15:30.620 it benefits the cia because cia is the most notorious drug trafficker and human trafficker

00:15:35.740 in the world and so it allows them to conduct all these operations secretly it also allows

00:15:40.540 them to spy on uh rogue regimes like north korea and the iranians in order to access more information

00:15:47.580 um and and and and it makes perfect sense for the cia to create this sort of thing the other

00:15:53.420 thing you need to ask is like what's the capacity to create this this thing right because it can't

00:15:59.900 can't be this random guy working in this basement for a number of years because why won't he

00:16:06.180 take credit? Why won't he monetize this, right? So the agency in the United States that is very

00:16:13.240 good at creating things like the internet, GPS, is DARPA, which is the think tank of the

00:16:18.940 Pentagon, right? So it could be NSA, it could be CIA, it could be DARPA, like who knows, but it's

00:16:25.080 deep state. And if you just go into the history of Bitcoin, it's very suspicious.

00:16:33.060 So who do you think is the founder of Bitcoin? Still anonymous, correct?

00:16:37.560 Yeah, I wouldn't know the individual, but it's probably NSA, CIA, DARPA.

00:16:43.380 So, Professor Zhang, what am I supposed to invest my money in? Where do I put the wealth that I've

00:16:50.560 acquired so if fiat currency is controlled by the federal reserve if it's controlled by the

00:16:56.360 rothschild central banking system it's not actually real bitcoin you're saying is controlled by the

00:17:01.220 cia if i buy real estate it's going to be in america which is a failing empire if i buy

00:17:07.280 is it just gold is that the best yeah but then the question is like where do you store this gold

00:17:13.540 right and what are you going to use gold for yeah you can have a lot of gold but when the world goes

00:17:18.280 of shit, right? I mean, like, what's going to get you, right? So, okay, here's my theory.

00:17:30.280 So, there's something called the Algorithic Cave by Plato. In the Algorithic Cave, everyone

00:17:37.460 is chained to the floor, right? And the neck is shackled, so you can't move around. You're

00:17:42.320 sitting on a wall. Behind everyone is a fire. And then there are people, the power elite,

00:17:47.260 that have puppets, and they project these puppets onto the wall, and so you're seeing

00:17:54.820 a shadow world, okay? Like it's a movie projector. And people, because they don't know any other

00:18:00.160 reality, they think that the shadow reality is the real reality, and they give it names,

00:18:06.220 they imagine it to be true. Because they imagine it to be true, then it becomes true. And that's

00:18:12.100 a perfect metaphor to describe the financial system that we live in today, right? Money,

00:18:16.320 wealth it's an illusion it doesn't i mean it's it's it's just literally paper but we imagine to

00:18:22.040 be true and it focused our attention and we we want more more morbid what we don't recognize

00:18:27.420 is that what true wealth is is our imagination what true wealth is is our connection with each

00:18:33.540 other because we get together we can imagine we can imagine anything that we want we can create

00:18:37.120 insight that we want okay so you think that your wealth is in these millions of dollars that you've

00:18:41.660 made like you know doing live streaming no it's not your will the true wealth that you have is

00:18:46.680 your imagination your knowledge that you've accumulated um over years of study your true

00:18:52.700 wealth is in your influence your true wealth is in the community that you built online and that

00:18:58.340 will carry carry you any way you go in the world okay if it's a new world guess what you and there's

00:19:05.740 no internet guess what you do lectures you go teach you go write stories right that's your true

00:19:11.340 wealth right okay yeah something and i was banned everywhere through over three years ago from i was

00:19:18.440 wiped off of all social media i can guess you could probably understand why and yeah when that

00:19:23.460 happened my parents had told me to get a job or they were starting to be extremely uh uncomfortable

00:19:28.580 and panic but i i knew that i would be able to find a way to to work it out because i believed

00:19:37.200 and the information that I'd gathered in my abilities and speaking and all that I knew

00:19:41.500 I'd be able to carry with. And even then, if I get banned all over again, I've been reinstated

00:19:45.340 on YouTube, still banned everywhere. But if something happens, I know I'll be able to

00:19:50.200 still find a way. Exactly. And so you've got it made, okay? You'll be good. And that's your

00:19:57.960 true wealth, your reputation, your influence, your imagination, okay? And so whatever happens

00:20:03.980 in a society as long as you are willing to make the adjustments as long as you're willing to keep

00:20:09.600 on learning and being creative and be a good person you'll succeed wherever you go you know

00:20:14.560 and that's my philosophy that's that is reassuring so so real currency is through learning and real

00:20:24.360 knowledge is power or power is is all from knowledge okay right yeah the imagination

00:20:30.760 the capacity to create new things by yourself the bit the capacity to draw people's attention

00:20:37.680 to focus people's attention that's what they need to understand like like like these billions of

00:20:42.460 dollars that they have it's all play money they understand that it's it exists because people

00:20:46.240 think it's real but the moment people don't think it's real it disappears on them so like who cares

00:20:51.040 you know okay well what about so you have children and you're married if i'm not mistaken

00:20:56.900 And what about you have to provide for them?

00:20:59.040 How do you, you know, how do you quantify that?

00:21:03.720 Right.

00:21:04.000 So, so if the world changes, okay, the imagination will carry you through because let, let's

00:21:15.020 just say for whatever reason, there's a solar flare, okay, and all electricity goes out.

00:21:21.860 Now what you do, what you do is you go talk to your neighbor and says, hey, maybe we're

00:21:26.880 we should work together and your neighbor's like yes we should work together because the world has

00:21:29.900 gone to shit right and then um all the people get together and somehow um people intuitively

00:21:37.860 figure out what they should be be doing right and we know this because you know i i'm not sure if
