In my case my very Doctor was a family friend. Apparently admitting I was smoking "weed" as a teenager and having stomach complaints was "proof" of Prodromal Psychosis. Later proven by a COMPETENT doctor to actually be Diverticular Bowel Disorder. How many people did he harm or even get KILLED?!

Cutting care to the vulnerable isn’t discipline. It’s the cruelty of people who will never need the services they vote to destroy.

“We all are going to die.” Yes, Senator — but some of us weren’t scheduled until your policies moved up the appointment.

Congratulations, Senator Joni Ernst. You’ve successfully reframed preventable death as fiscal discipline. Welcome to the Age of Efficient Mercy™ – Where Death Is Inevitable… and Funded Accordingly. Love, Joni

Family tell us not to worry about masking around the grandchildren, because "they won't catch anything from you" (because we mask indoors). The family have been constantly sick for 3 months. All apparently bought home from preschool/school... 😥

This isn’t hypothetical anymore. Thiel installed the dashboard. Musk gave him the keys. Vance signs the paperwork. You provided the data. You just didn’t know you were onboarding.

1984 gave us the boot stomping on a human face. Thiel gave us a dashboard that auto-corrects your behavior before the boot even drops.

Orwell warned us about Big Brother. Thiel just made him scalable, VC-backed, and dressed in khakis. Obedience isn’t mandated anymore. It’s funded.

He can’t sit in the Oval Office. So he built a dashboard that controls the people who do. Welcome to Proxy Rule™. Where voting is optional, but obedience is not.

Thiel’s not eligible to be president. So he installed one. And a VP. And built the software that watches you vote.

It’s not governance. It’s extraction wrapped in optimization. And it’s already happening

In his world, voting is for shareholders. If you don’t own equity, you don’t get a voice.

Elon is the distraction. Palantir is the surveillance. JD Vance is the compliant suit. Thiel is the one pulling strings.

Peter Thiel doesn’t want to win elections. He wants to abolish them—and rule through capital, code, and proxies.

Theils technocracy and governing by proxy….
