DIALOGUE With a Disgruntled Trump Supporter. GLOBAL STRATEGIC HYPOTHESES.

DIALOGUE

With a Disgruntled

Trump Supporter.

GLOBAL STRATEGIC HYPOTHESES.

Dear Reader,

Below is a transcript of a recent dialogue between yours truly and a disgruntled [former] Trump supporter. My statements are marked M.D. My interlocutor’s statements are marked D.T.S. The views expressed in this dialogue by me are, of course, my own, and are not necessarily those of the Foundation General Council, or of the Foundation membership at large.

D.T.S. What are your thoughts on the new war we’re headed into? Trump was supposed to steer us away from this sh*t.

M.D. Long-standing mass hatreds are hard to quell. But Trump is playing those forces against one another to bring about new, win-win economic alliances, and an end to “kinetic engagements”.

E.g., with the Israeli attacks on Iran, the Ayatollah state-capitalist theocracy may come to see negotiating-away its Uranium enrichment program with the U.S. and the Israeli theocracy as its best option.

Or, the Ayatollah theocracy may be overthrown by its own long-suffering people, diminishing the whole “causus belli” in the Middle East, and paving the way for an “economic miracle” there that will “Make the Middle East Great Again” [MMEGA?], to quote Trump.

There are already grounds for alliance, as the Sunni-Muslim theocracies there also fear the Ayatollah regime, and do not want to see that regime with nuclear-bombs-tupped ballistic missiles, etc.

The Israeli theocracy may be forced to reconstitute in the process, and to redress its treatment the Palestinian and Israeli-citizen Arabs, ending its genocidal “Apartheid” regime in that process, in return for peace and for economic gain.

The Israeli people are not used to having Iranian or other missiles breaking through their “Iron Dome” and killing Israeli men, women, and children.

I think that they too will look forward to an end of hostilities in the region, and will be willing to pay for that in the currency of better treatment of their fellow, Arabic, semitics, internally and in their neighboring nation-states.

D.T.S. If Iran bombs the oil dictatorships that surround it, that will cause a global economic meltdown.

I don’t think that that is “win-win”.

Also, I don’t really buy the story that they want a nuclear bomb.

That’s been the story for 25 years.

It sounds a lot like the WMD story that got us into another Middle East conflict not that long ago.

I think that this is a bad development.

Iran was negotiating, now Israel attacked them unprovoked, so they are responding in a pretty predictable way. …

M.D. Trump has no choice but to work with what he’s got – with the psychohistorical material that is at hand in the situation.

The mass «mentalité» of the Israeli people, perceiving the Ayatollah regime’s will to exterminate them, means that they will not trust that regime with even the POTENTIAL to weaponize enriched Uranium, and is enough to predict that the Israelis will attack to destroy the Iranian Uranium enrichment infrastructure NO MATTER WHAT, including, no matter what Trump says.

The Ayatollah regime will weigh the costs and benefits of continuing with Uranium enrichment, or it will be overthrown by its own “subjects”.

The Russia regime’s resources are tied up with its war with Ukraine.

The China regime’s resources are tied up with the threat of the Chinese people’s reactions to tariffs-related rising unemployment there.

Neither regime is likely to risk intervening against Israel, that might further drain their resources, let alone ignite WWIII.

The situation is unavoidably risky, but Trump seems to me to be well-playing the cards that he has got.

Meanwhile, Israel has no wish to attack the Sunni dictatorships, seeing them as potential “silent allies” against the Iranian Shiite dictatorship which threatens them all, and the Sunni dictatorships know that they would also face military intervention from the Trump regime if they were to attack Israel.

I also don’t think that the beleaguered Ayatollah regime will risk attacking the Sunni dictatorships’ oil infrastructure, because the Ayatollahs know well that such would bring the wrath of the Trump regime’s military down upon them.

Trump regime naval assets are already converging on the Middle East, and related airborne assets are already shooting down many of the Ayatollah regime’s drones and missiles aimed at Israeli territories.

D.T.S. I wouldn’t be so sure. If they feel backed into a corner then they might.

Having nuclear energy is integral to what they believe is their right to sovereignty and self-determination.

Iran is the last country on the neo-con/Israel hit list of countries that they have wanted to invade for the last 25+ years.

They finally have their war with Iran and I fear that it will not go well for the West or for the rest of the world.

M.D. You could be right.

The Ayatollah leadership might decide to commit the suicide of itself and of the rest of Iran by attacking all of Middle East oil production, rather than to “give in” to negotiations.

The U.S. armed forces might not be able to shoot down most of the Iranian missiles aimed at the Saudi Arabian, Kuwaiti, etc., oil works.

However, in an agreement brokered by Trump, I hold that Iran would not have to give up its nuclear POWER industry; it would be guaranteed, under that peace treaty, a supply of Uranium sufficiently-enriched for power reactor use [but not for weapons-use] from outside of Iran, monitored, along with its fission reactors, by the IAEA.

D.T.S. Trump keeps changing his position.

He was saying that the nuclear energy program could continue, which is ostensibly what the Iranians wanted, but Israel and the neo-cons wanted no enrichment, and Trump has since made similar statements and demands.

I think that he is up against a very entrenched deep state op that he’s powerless to avert because he took so much money from pro-Israeli billionaires for the 2024 Presidential election.

He’s now boasting that he knew about the Israeli attack on Iran in advance, and that the U.S. supports it.

The Iranians were, by all sober accounts, willing to negotiate, but now the “deal” that they will be presented with will most likely put them in what will are likely to perceive as an existential bind.

M.D. Indeed, the whole Trump Faction of the capitalist ruling class is up against an unelected, very powerful faction of the ‘descendence-phase’ capitalist ruling class, what we call the ‘Rocke-Nazi Faction’, that has been in uncontested power in the U.S. federal state, and in the U.K., ever since their Kennedy assassinations coup d’état against the Roosevelt Faction in the U.S., up until Trump’s second term now.

Some of the variances in Trump’s minor pronouncements might be due to forgetfulness or sloppiness, in my observation, but, in general, “changing his position” is Trump negotiating! That is, I see Trump’s major positions variances as part of Trump’s ‘dance of deal-making’.

The greatest immediate danger to Trump’s movement now, and to humanity’s survival and ‘thrival’, in the short run, is that of his assassination by the other main faction, the ‘Rocke-Nazi’ faction, that have made a habit of murdering anyone who gets in their way ever since their inception.

That is, assassination has been the habitual response of that ‘descendence-phase’ faction to most figures who have been accomplishing progress for humanity, ever since the 1860s – just look at how many U.S. presidents have died by assassination!

So much of humanity’s future now depends on the physical health, mental health, and resiliency of one key person!!!

D.T.S. I fear that they shook him up with their assassination attempts during the 2024 Presidential campaign.

Moreover, his need to actually take donor money in that, his second Presidential campaign, has compromised him in a way that he wasn’t necessarily compromised during his first Presidential campaign and term.

The problem, during his first Presidential term, was that he had so many people working from within his administration to undermine his policies and decisions.

The narrative coming out of his second Presidential campaign was that this problem would be solved this time.

I don’t know, I would love to believe that there is a deeper game in which he is working for the people, to subvert the deep state and the impending “national security”/tech-surveillance apparatus, but the opposite seems to be the case.

We’re just getting a much more privatized version than the version we had under previous leadership.

M.D. Trump’s billionaire supporters and funders – viz. Elon Musk – don’t always get what they may think that they are buying from him, and he says that he’s not planning to run for the Presidency again, so, even if a constitutional case can be made that U.S. Presidents are allowed two CONSECUTIVE terms, Trump is not so beholden to funders anymore, because he doesn’t need to fund any future Presidential campaigns.

But your texts read to me as if you don’t see any benefits to the majority class already from Trump’s second Presidential term.

My perception is that Trump’s leadership has ALREADY delivered more benefits than I expected, far faster than I imagined possible for him [or for any other leader].

To whit –

1. Restoration of the rule of law w.r.t immigration; arrest and deportation of thousands of illegal migrants, with more deportations on the way, daily;

2. Tariff deployments, surging foreign and U.S. company’s investments in the U.S., with expanding higher-wage and higher-salary jobs for U.S. workers, re-industrialization of the U.S. underway, and more “external revenue” for the U.S. Treasury, allowing tax breaks for the majority class;

3. Purging of unelected ‘Rocke-Nazi’ Faction, “people are pollution” humanocidal whores from the federal government – especially from the deep pit of ‘Rocke-Nazi’ vipers in the Department of State, long “owned”, for the most hideous purposes, by the Rockefeller “New York Council on Foreign Relations” – but in other units of the U.S. Federal Government as well, including Anthony ‘Dr. Mega-Mengele’ Fauci’s crew of humanocidal maniacs in the HHS Dept.;

4. Curtailing of the theft, fraudulent use, and anti-majority-class abuse of taxpayer funds by Federal Government “Deep State” units, especially “USAID”, which was funding ‘Rocke-Nazi” Faction pogroms and NGOs by the billions;

5. Cancelling the Rocke-Nazi’s ‘SOYLENT’-“Green”, Global Warming Austerity and energy-costs hyper-escalations pogroms; beginning to increase U.S. energy production and supply – both expectations and actualizations – thereby also reducing the cost of production of almost all products and services, which must use energy in their production, thereby providing the majority class with both higher wage jobs and declining inflation/lower prices for consumer goods and ‘consumer services’;

6. Eliminating income taxes on overtime work and tips, and crediting-back much of seniors’ taxes on their Social Security returns, thereby raising many majority class incomes;

7. Enacting immediate expensing of industrial and farm capital equipment investments, and R&D investments, thus reducing industrial capitalists’ and farmers’ business-income tax burdens, and the damages to their profit-rates due to pre-amortization technological obsolescence depreciation/devaluation, and competition-enforced scrapping, of agricultural and industrial capital investments, thus partially-mitigating the fatal flaw of the capitalist system. These measures reduce the costs and increase the profit-rate incentives of agricultural and industrial capital investments in obsolescence-vulnerable capital plant and equipment, and thus help to motivate the re-industrialization of the U.S., together with the higher-wage and higher-salary jobs associated therewith;

8. Curtailing the Rocke-Nazis’ “population reduction” pogroms of “abortion on demand” – the mass murder of helpless babies because of the Fed-etc. impoverishment of majority-class families, who can’t afford any more to raise children – and the genital mutilation and sterilization of children, against their parents’ wishes;

9. Curtailing the coercion of female athletes to compete against “transgender” biological males, and to expose themselves to voyeurism and rape by those males in female restrooms and locker rooms;

10. Trump’s generally anti-war and pro-peace/pro-prosperity demeanor and policies, hugely and vitally refreshing after decades of ‘Rocke-Nazi’ neo-CON-ART war mongering and continual engagements in new, needless wars;

11. Trump’s “Golden Dome” initiative;

12. Trump’s push-back against the dictatorship in state-capitalist China.

… and I forgot to mention, above, three other big benefits that Trump’s second term has already delivered or is in the process of delivering –

A. Ending the forcing of U.S. taxpayers to pay for “DEI” – ‘Rocke-Nazi’ “divide-and-conquer” – brainwashing sessions;

B. Ending the forcing of U.S. taxpayers to pay for ‘Rocke-Nazi’, “divide-and-conquer”, “critical race theory” indoctrination programs;

C. Ending the forcing of U.S. taxpayers to pay for the incessant ‘Rocke-Nazi’ propaganda of the NPR ‘National Plutocracy Radio’, of the PBS ‘Plutocracy Broadcasting [Dis-]Service’, and of the CPB ‘Corporation for Plutocracy Broadcasting’ deep-state propaganda mills.

How EQUITISM Can Cure Capitalist SOCIAL ALIENATION

How EQUITISM Can Cure

the Growing SOCIAL ALIENATION

that has Burgeoned Unabated throughout the Capitalist Epoch.

GLOBAL STRATEGIC HYPOTHESES.

Dear Reader,

On the last page of his recent text entitled ‘Dialectical Rocket Science’, Karl Seldon noted his book MARX’S MISSING BLUEPRINTS, about the ‘‘‘Equitist’’’ alternative to both state-capitalism and anarchism, as pointing to “a way out of the reign of ever-deepening social alienation” that has characterized the capitalist epoch entire to-date.

Seldon argues, in Dialectical Rocket Science, that this social estrangement, not limited to the increasingly-lethal suffering of emotional misery and poverty, affects an afflicts ‘the human phenome’, ‘‘‘psychohistorically’’’ – e.g., collective-psychologically – even including the content of modern, capitalist-epoch mathematical science, even leading to shocking and egregious errors in its mathematical models of physical reality.

Seldon there attributes the root cause of these errors, and that social alienation, to the “atomistic” self-identity structure, inculcated by capitalism, by the capitalist experience – by the, modernly-universal, socio-psychological trauma of “the war of each against all”, of the capitalistically ever-intensifying social abandonment and predatory omni-directional ‘enthreatenment’ of each social individual, surrounded by perils. The resulting atomistic ego-structure and form of self-identity is “thenceforth ‘exo-projected’ onto all of external reality”, leading to the ideology of ‘point-atomism’, and “infinite” singularities, that afflict the solvability and empirical aptness of especially the nonlinear integro-differential equations that represent the best modern expressions of the “laws” of Nature.

¿What, then, in more detail, are the reasons per which we hold that ‘‘‘Equitism’’’ – ‘Equitist Political-ECONOMIC DEMOCRACY’ – as concretely described in MARX’S MISSING BLUEPRINTS, would mitigate that epidemic socio-psychological, ‘psychohistorical trauma’ of capitalist modernity, and gradually alleviate that, at present critically-deepening, social alienation?

Broadly, we infer that human social alienation was at an historical minimum, if only within the – human solidarity based – Paleolithic hunting/gathering/-scavenging bands, and within the early Neolithic village communities. Then, within ranked, stratified and then class societies, a long arc of deepening social alienation – of the gradual dissolution of ancestral communities and extended families began – in humanity’s socio-historical trajectory. Social alienation continually widened, reaching its zenith in the capitalist epoch, all the way up to today.

Today, majority class social individuals in the advanced-capitalist nation-states increasingly experience a ‘war of all against each’, and when, in response, they fight for their survival, experience a ‘war of each against all’ – a war of themselves against all others.

They are threatened, at every turn, with unemployment – laid off in a flash with the slightest dip in their bureaucratic corporate employers’ rate of profit, or due to rejecting unwanted sexual advances of their supervisors, or for expressing their political views – and with under-employment, earning barely enough to scrape by for a while, with working two or more jobs “to make ends meet”, and with homelessness, when those “ends” don’t “meet”.

They are threatened with illegal crime – with burglaries, muggings, even in broad daylight, rapes, murders – and with the “lawful” crimes of pharmaceutical corporations and Rockefeller-AMA medical doctors, pushing “medicines” which may help with one condition, but that come with long lists of lethal “side effects”; of food processing corporations that fill their “eatable” products with deadly, disease-causing additives, and with the residues of toxic fungicides, herbicides and insecticides, etc.; of polluting corporations that fill their air and water in the neighborhoods where they live and where they work with deadly substances of burgeoning kinds.

If people have children at all – bucking the trend of rapidly declining rates of human reproduction, driven by the depression and hopelessness that more and more many feel in the wake of this deepening social alienation – they struggle to save enough to help those children to pay the hyperinflating costs of higher-education [increasingly reduced to ‘Rocke-Nazi Faction’ ideologies-inculcation], to give their children any chance to achieve even the same standard of living as their parents, let alone any progress in raising their living standards beyond those of their parents.

And, even as early as elementary school, their children are groomed for drug addiction – to minds-destroying and lives-destroying poisons – pushed by the ‘Rocke-Nazi’ CIA and its associated drug cartels.

Not only communities and extended families, but even nuclear families are increasingly dissolved by the solvent of commodity-and-money capitalism, by ‘“the cash nexus as the only remaining connection between human being and human being”’.

Divorce rates burgeon. Children grow up estranged from one of their warring parents, or the other – or from both! Siblings move far away to find jobs, and lose touch. More and more households are single-person households.

Human beings are essentially social beings. Isolated, they go rogue; they derange.

Increasing rates of mass shootings increasingly turn this ‘war of each against all’ into a shooting war.

We expect that, after a successful – nonviolent – popular and populist transition beyond capitalism, to ‘‘‘Equitism’’’, or to something like it, as successor system to the capitalist system, a return historical arc in the trajectory of humanity, at a higher level of ‘the social forces of human-societal self-re-production’ than ever before, will spirally ensue – gradually, but with gradual acceleration – diminishing this social alienation back toward its original, minimal levels, but, this time, on a much higher, global, planetary scale, eventuating in a base-democratic Terran ‘planetary polis’.

¿Concretely, how, and why, do we expect that the widespread, tendentially global adoption and implementation of such a successor system would accomplish this gradual alleviation of the present, capitalist epidemic of social alienation?

Using, the ‘‘‘Equitist’’’ model for that successor system, we expect its core provisions to have the following, healing, collective-psychological and ‘‘‘psychohistorical’’’ effects on the representative social individual.

1. Citizen Birthright Equity [CBE]. Modern, advanced-capitalist societies approach a kind of ‘universal orphanism’, with almost every majority-class individual, sooner or later – and, increasingly, sooner – “on their own” against the life-threatening and life-destroying hazards hinted-at above.

The proposed ‘Citizen Birthright Equity’ social trust funds, “inherited” from their society at birth, would tend to give each citizen the feeling that their society is backing them, “has their back”, and is investing in them, so as to grant them access to the basic opportunities of life and the pursuit of happiness.

CBE would also give them “skin in the game”. E.g., if they were to commit crimes against others, they would forfeit some or all of their social trust funds in reparations to their victims.

2. Citizen Externality Equity [CEE]. This new all-citizens ‘‘‘Equity’’’ would give majority class citizens the power of ‘grass roots, democratic regulation’ and restraint of pollution externalities coercively imposed upon them by corporations – and even by Citizen Stewardship Equity socialized producers’ cooperatives – where they and their families live, in their neighborhoods, their cities, their counties and their states, etc.

It would provide an alternative to the failed external “regulation”, by governmental bureaucracies easily prostituted to and captured by the “Big Money” of the corporate polluters and other externality generators who they were supposed to regulate and restrain, and also to increasingly unaffordable civil litigation against those same “Deep-Pocketed” polluters, with, instead, a democratic form of regulation of pollution and other externalities.

The helplessness that so many majority class citizens increasingly feel in the face of increasing and increasingly- lethal pollution by corporate behemoths – by the de facto ‘‘‘war’’’ waged by these corporations upon their families, their children – would come to its blessed end at last.

3. Citizen Stewardship Equity [CSE]. Without a dictatorial state outlawing the wage-labor/salaried-labor/capitalism “social relation of production”, but with capitalist enterprises competing, for workers, with workers’ cooperatives, wherein workers democratically decide how they shall be treated – albeit within the constraints imposed by pleasing their customers – a human-solidarity-based, “democracy at work”, new model “social relation of production” is the upshot of a democratically-legislated new human right of ‘Citizen Stewardship Equity’. These socialized cooperatives would compete with other such cooperatives, and with remaining capitalist enterprises, as well as with privately-owned workers’ cooperatives, operating in the same markets.

Per this new human right and new property right, citizens who formed such cooperatives would receive two streams of income: (1) compensation for time-worked in and for their cooperative, and (2) a share, proportionate to their time worked, in the net operating surplus of their cooperative enterprise [what would otherwise go, as net profit, to, e.g., absentee stock and bond holders, etc., in a capital/wage-labor social-relation-of-production enterprise].

Each cooperative worker would collectively “own” their cooperative – would legally own a share of “individual property” in its Stewardship Equity collective – but would not locally own the means of production used by their cooperative. They would hold their, socially-granted, means of production, in ‘‘‘Stewardship’’’, not in local ownership.

Each cooperative’s means of production would be granted by a social bank – also a, competing, Stewardship Equity cooperative of a special kind – per those workers’ qualifying business plan, and the social bank cooperative would receive a share of those workers’ earnings in return – if the social bank that they applied to had the confidence in them to fund their business plan and the means of production that that plan called for in the first place, with that social bank thereby risking its own solvency by funding their plan.

The, so-funded, Stewardship Equity producers’ cooperative, would pay a ‘social rent’ on their social-bank granted means of production – from a part of which their sponsoring social bank cooperative would derive its income – because those means of production would be and would remain social property, to which they would be granted the usufruct in return for their monthly social rent payments on it and for it.

Each such producers’ cooperative would also pay a monthly premium for ‘technodepreciation insurance’, to help finance replacement means of production should their earlier means of production become technologically, competitively obsolete.

The ‘social rents’ paid by these ‘Citizen Stewardship Equity’ producers’ cooperatives would, in turn, help to fund the ‘Citizen Birthright Equity’ social trust funds gifted to each new citizen at birth.

We expect that the combination, the synergy, of the new human rights, and all-citizens property rights, of ‘Citizen Birthright Equity’, ‘Citizen Externality Equity’ and ‘Citizen Stewardship Equity’, would begin the restoration of human community and solidarity, and the attenuation of social alienation, that would make for an ongoing global social renaissance, and a new age of liberty, of prosperity, of the pursuit of human happiness, and of human flourishing.
