Our current managerial elite predicates its rule on the notion of expertise. But a fundamental shift in our political formula has put the system on a collision course with disaster. The woke cultural revolution has escaped the universities that incubated its poisonous rhetoric, and rooted itself deeply into every critical institution in the United States.
00:01:08.780Those who are able to obtain prestigious credentials gain the right to rule due to their unparalleled ability to manage complex systems.
00:01:16.260But a fundamental shift in our political formula has put the system on a collision course with disaster.
00:01:23.700The woke cultural revolution has escaped the universities that incubated its poisonous rhetoric
00:01:28.820and rooted itself deeply into every critical institution in the United States.
00:01:33.380This destructive doctrine seemed strange but quaint when it was being chanted by delusional college students.
00:01:40.480But everyone should have learned by now that the fashionable college ideology of today becomes the ruling dogma of tomorrow.
00:01:47.160The armed forces, major corporations, and medical schools now prioritize diversity over the ability to perform tasks that are critical to people's survival.
00:01:57.560Major institutions that are supposed to safeguard the critical functions of our civilization are more interested in elevating trans women of color
00:02:05.380than the ability of the organizations to properly execute their functions.
00:02:09.620Selecting brain surgeons by the obscurity of their sexual preferences instead of their success rate
00:02:16.500would have sounded like a comedy sketch ten years ago, but no one is laughing now.
00:02:21.900Part of the managerial formula meant delegating all major social decisions to this distributed network of expert institutions.
00:02:30.500Power in the hands of a single leader, even an elected one, could be dangerous.
00:02:34.960Better to spread that responsibility across many highly competent organizations that specialize in the relevant disciplines.
00:02:43.840This makes decisive action more difficult, but in theory, it dramatically raises the quality of the policies that will eventually be implemented.
00:02:52.980That sounds great when you're still pretending that these institutions are selecting the best and the brightest,
00:02:58.580but now, come on, that's just delusional.
00:03:01.300Expertise became the holy doctrine of our civilization, and every decision, from how parents educate their children
00:03:09.140to what we say to each other on the internet, is mediated by these managerial institutions.
00:03:15.260These organizations, which now control our lives to an unprecedented degree,
00:03:20.240are run by those who are most willing to genuflect before the gods of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
00:03:26.460These days, it's impossible to thrive with just one job.
00:03:29.580Between increasing living costs, paying off debts, and planning for the future,
00:03:33.260things like buying a home, building savings, and even going on vacation can seem like fantasies.
00:03:38.020If your goal is financial freedom, you could start taking on more hours at your current job,
00:03:42.140work towards a promotion, or try putting your money into something risky like stocks,
00:03:46.180cryptocurrencies, or even a side hustle.
00:03:48.200But at the end of the day, do you really want to sacrifice time and energy
00:03:51.220that could otherwise be spent with your loved ones or on your hobbies just to make a living?
00:03:55.240Luckily, you don't have to hustle to reliably make more money.
