Remember to Resist-Memory is a Weapon

REQUIRED VIEWING:

THE SHORT VERSION: The Thiel-Yarvin Playbook: Understanding the Endgame
THE LONG VERSION: The CEO-Dictator Playbook

Understanding recent events requires viewing them as part of a long-planned blueprint for authoritarian takeover, not isolated incidents. This video outlines Curtis Yarvin and Peter Thiel’s decades-in-the-making strategy to dismantle democracy and consolidate power under billionaire-controlled executive rule. The Trump administration is aggressively reshaping the federal government, challenging legal and constitutional boundaries.

These actions aim to consolidate executive power, diminish checks and balances, and align governance with corporate interests, reflecting the ideological visions of Curtis Yarvin and Peter Thiel, who advocate for a CEO-style presidency with minimal oversight. Today's developments reveal a strategic effort to shift public discourse by introducing extreme ideas, such as imprisoning journalists, selling american citizenship to the highest bidder & Unchecked brownshirt jackboots into mainstream conversation. This tactic serves to normalize authoritarian rhetoric, gradually expanding the Overton Window—the range of acceptable political discourse—to include previously unthinkable propositions. By desensitizing the public to such extreme measures, the administration incrementally erodes democratic norms and paves the way for more overt authoritarian actions.

Control Relies on Forgetting. Resistance Forces Memory.

Authoritarian strategies thrive on gradual normalization; Ensuring that each restriction, each redefinition, each unchecked overreach fades from public consciousness before the next step is introduced. The entire system depends on a kind of strategic amnesia—people must forget the last suppression before they recognize the next. But when a single holdout refuses to move on, it disrupts this process, forcing the public to witness the creeping expansion of control as a continuous sequence rather than isolated incidents.

AP’s Holdout: A Disruption in Narrative Control

The Associated Press’ refusal to comply with the GOMBS (Gulf of Mexico Bull Shit) language mandate has created an unexpected bottleneck in the regime’s ability to dictate public discourse. Every other major institution—Google, Apple, mainstream networks—folded without resistance, allowing the administration’s preferred terminology to overwrite reality in a matter of days. But AP’s refusal has created an anomaly: a single, conspicuous reminder of what was before.

The administration’s problem is now twofold:

1. AP’s resistance keeps the initial shift visible, making it harder to seamlessly introduce new linguistic controls.

2. It makes later restrictions appear cumulative rather than isolated, disrupting the illusion of "natural evolution" in official narratives.

If AP had complied, the mandate would already be a forgotten meme, absorbed into public consciousness as "the way things are." Instead, AP's defiance acts as a linguistic speed bump, keeping attention on the mechanism of control itself.

Coeur d'Alene & Lear: A Precedent Against Suppression

A similar disruption occurred in Coeur d'Alene, where a woman dragged from a rally under false pretense by ununiformed enforcers not only saw her charges dropped but forced the state to strip LEAR of its license. The programmatic function of such “anonymous enforcement” tactics relies on predictability—targets must believe they have no recourse, no precedent, no resistance.

This moment shatters that expectation. Instead of being quietly prosecuted and forgotten, the case became a reference point—a precedent for defying unmarked enforcers. It signals that physical resistance is not only possible, it is justifiable.

These moments, though seemingly minor, are strategic failures for the machine. They force the public to see control as a pattern, not an inevitability. Resistance forces memory. And memory is the enemy of control.

The Paramilitary Pipeline: Federal Force → Personal Militias → Autonomous AI Suppression

The privatization of violence is no longer theoretical—it is active, expanding, and increasingly normalized at every level of society. The Politico document leak confirms what many have suspected: paramilitary contractors have been embedded in government operations since before the administration even took office, laying the groundwork for mass enforcement beyond the reach of constitutional oversight. At the same time, a new private security service—self-described as “Uber with guns”—has launched, further mainstreaming the concept of rentable, unaccountable force. (Sources: Politico, KTLA)

And now, Palantir’s CEO is openly making the next push—a Manhattan Project for AI-driven enforcement, ensuring that the transition from private paramilitaries to fully autonomous suppression is not a distant hypothetical, but an urgent and actionable plan. (Source: TechCrunch)

This is no longer creeping authoritarianism. They are speedrunning the NRx strategy of replacing state power with private force, ensuring that law enforcement is no longer bound by public accountability, democratic process, or even basic legal constraints. From the federal level down to individual citizens, a new class of mercenaries is being installed, piece by piece, until the very concept of a neutral state monopoly on force disappears entirely.

Blackwater 2.0: A Government of Enforcers, Not Laws

Since day one, Blackwater-linked forces have been operating as “private security” for key federal agencies, enforcing political directives by physically barring elected officials from investigating government dismantling efforts. These new documents confirm that their role was not reactive—it was planned. The administration knew they would require enforcement outside the chain of military command.

This is a feature, not a bug, of the broader plan. Timothy Snyder warned that when the state begins merging with paramilitary forces, it signals the end of democratic governance—not a moment of crisis, but the irreversible tipping point where government ceases to be a legal entity and becomes an enforcement mechanism for power itself. If law and policy can no longer constrain armed agents of the state, then the state no longer exists—only force does.

"Be wary of paramilitaries. When the pro-leader paramilitary and the official police and military intermingle, the end has come."
—Timothy Snyder, On Tyranny

What these new leaks show is that the intermingling has already happened. The “official” police are still there, but they are no longer the primary instrument of force—private contractors, acting with state sanction but beyond state restriction, are now positioned as the real enforcers.

Palantir’s AI Suppression: The Next Phase of Automated Control

This week, Palantir’s CEO is releasing The Technological Republic, a thinly veiled sales pitch for AI-run governance and militarization. That should sound really familiar to anyone who has been following along. The timing is perfectly aligned with the current push to normalize paramilitary forces—because the goal has always been to remove even the paramilitaries from the equation. Other tangential Billionaires are already openly advocating and introducing 1984 levels of suppression in the most casual tone you can imagine. For them, it is already a given. (Source: Fortune)

The call for an AI-driven “Manhattan Project” for deadly autonomous warfare is the final step in the Neoreactionary vision:

1. Replace public policing with private militias.

2. Decentralize force through rentable, on-demand violence (Protector, “Uber with Guns”).

3. Scale enforcement beyond human capacity with AI-driven targeting and suppression.

It is the long-envisioned NRx “network city” model—where governance is algorithmic, and security is provided not by law, but by privately owned AI enforcers. In this system, crime isn’t policed—inconsequentials are simply “neutralized.”

This is Palantir’s true vision, and it ties directly into Peter Thiel’s long-documented ambitions for an AI-managed “post-democratic” order. The fact that Thiel’s name is missing from this rollout is intentional—he has long preferred to act through proxies, just as he did with Yarvin’s early NRx writings. If you don’t know, Peter Thiel is one of the OWNERS of Palantir.

From Uber to Warbands to Autonomous Kill Networks

While federal paramilitary involvement is alarming, the true mechanical function of this system relies on decentralization. That’s where the so-called “Uber with guns” service comes in. The launch of Protector, a private, app-based armed escort service, represents the next logical step: normalizing mercenary violence on the personal level, stripping security from democratic control and turning protection into a transaction.

Now pair this with the Palantir model: an AI-driven system where “threats” are identified, tracked, and eliminated autonomously.

• Need to shut down a protest? Private forces clear the area.

• Need to neutralize an organizer? AI marks them as a “disruptive actor” and assigns “resolution.”

• Need to eliminate dissent without liability? No one orders an attack—“the algorithm” does.

This is not about safety. This is not about crime. This is about the systematic replacement of public security with privatized, automated force, making resistance impossible to challenge through legal or democratic means.

But why are is the sudden push coming now? I don’t think this was fully intentional. We have already seen small failures in the machine’s process—AP’s refusal to comply with the government’s language mandates, the unexpected backlash against unlawful detainment in Coeur d’Alene, and the public's refusal to simply move on from these events. These anomalies were not supposed to happen.

But they did.

And that makes it necessary for the next phase to be implemented faster and with less hesitation. The Overton Window must snap shut before these moments of defiance are understood as part of a larger trend. Expect hyper-local enforcement grabs, small-scale arrests, black-bagged protestors, new ordinances empowering private security firms to deputize civilians, and an uptick in “pilot programs” that give quiet legal cover to what is functionally organized violence.

This is why the AI rollout is happening now. If the current system is still vulnerable to pushback, the next step must be deployed before resistance coalesces into a structured opposition.

Resistance Forces Memory—Memory Disrupts Control

The administration’s success depends on these changes happening so gradually that no one perceives the transformation in full. It depends on each loss of control being seen as an isolated event, not an emerging pattern. By forcing their hand and causing them to have to unveil things in a slightly different order or sooner than they had planned or in a different way, we might make a dent.

If each piece is seen together, the process becomes undeniable. And if people understand the pattern, they can recognize the next step before it happens.

They need silence. Memory is noise. Keep making it.

Step 6 in Action: Breaking the Press Before the Attack

The purge of independent media is escalating. Rachel Maddow notices the exodus of key behind-the-scenes figures but hasn’t made the full connection yet. She is the ONLY major MSM that I am aware of to even mention Curtis Yarvin. But if she knows who he is she doesn’t seem to connect Step 6 of his Butterfly Revolution to what is happening to her own station. This isn’t uncertainty or a bad news climate—it’s part of a structured destabilization effort. (Source: Video)

To my point, the White House has now formally taken control over who gets to cover the president, stripping the White House Correspondents’ Association (WHCA) of its century-old role in selecting the press pool. Moving forward, the administration alone will decide which outlets have access—and which ones don’t. (Source: USA Today)

This is Step 6 of Yarvin’s Butterfly Revolution

1. Force the press into submission. (e.g. Humiliating them with “Gulf of America.”)

2. Destabilize their internal structures. (Key figures leaving or sidelined.)

3. Seize control over access itself.

By taking over the press pool, the White House can now grant access only to outlets that serve its interests and blacklist those that don’t. The legal groundwork has already been laid: A judge has upheld the administration’s decision to ban AP from select press events after it refused to comply with state-mandated terminology.

Not only is this about controlling coverage. It is also about making independent media structurally incapable of challenging power.

Imagine how much more invisible and effective would this be if we weren’t still talking about AP and The Gulf of Mexico!?

They rely on amnesia. Memory disrupts control. Keep remembering.

Stay With Me Now—We’re About to Run out Of Food

But that isn’t even the story here—read to the end if you like far out theories.

Recent federal funding freezes and the dismantling of USAID have left U.S. farmers in a precarious position as planting season approaches. These disruptions have halted essential programs and payments, creating financial uncertainty for farmers who rely on government support to secure loans for seeds and equipment. Without clear guidance from the USDA, many are unable to project crop prices, complicating loan approvals and financial planning.

The suspension of USAID has also led to significant challenges. For instance, approximately 30,000 tons of food intended for international aid are stranded and rotting in a Houston port due to the aid suspension, affecting farmers who supplied these commodities. (Source: Houston Chronical). There are also additional stockpiles of crops all over the country that have nowhere to go due to cancelled contracts of inefficacy through chaos.

Additionally, the USDA's funding freeze has impacted programs like the Environmental Quality Incentives Program and the Conservation Stewardship Program, which are vital for farmers' operational support. (Source: Reuters)

These financial strains will likely force some farms, especially large and mega farms to sell land at discounted prices. While this is speculative, it raises concerns about potential opportunistic acquisitions.

The neo-reactionary (NRx) movement envisions a future where governance resembles a corporate structure, advocating for a "patchwork" of autonomous, competing city-states or "gov-corps" (Source: Bristol Research)

This model necessitates the acquisition of substantial tracts of land to establish these independent entities. Historically, NRx proponents have explored various avenues to secure such territories, including ambitious projects like seasteading—creating autonomous, floating communities beyond national jurisdictions or projects like California Forever that attempted to take land by force. Or The Flannery Group which has been buying up land suspiciously and anonymously for a decade. Additional projects have been floated in South America and other parts of the world as well. (Source: Platform Space)

However, these efforts have often been thwarted by local opposition and regulator challenges.

In light of these setbacks, it's plausible to consider that NRx strategists might view their only viable option for acquiring the type of land required to build entire cities is through massive and catastrophic economic disasters. Such implosions of unprecedented economic instability targeted precisely to align with planting/funding season could force large-scale and mega farms to sell land at reduced prices. This is an opportunity to acquire the necessary tracts for their envisioned network cities. I admit that this is entirely speculative, for now.

But Where Would We Get All The Rich People?

Never fear! We are now fast tracking ANYONE with a fat wallet to full American Status with all the rights and privileges that come with it. Donald Trump has introduced a "gold card" visa program, offering a fast track path to U.S. citizenship with minimal oversight for a $5 million “investment”. This initiative aims to attract wealthy individuals, including foreign oligarchs, by providing them with the opportunity to “invest” in the U.S. and obtain citizenship. (Source: AP)

The timing of this program's rollout is particularly coincidental. As domestic farmers face financial strain and potential bankruptcy due to halted aid programs, the influx of affluent investors with expedited citizenship could lead to a surge in land acquisitions. These investors, seeking to capitalize on distressed agricultural assets, may be able purchase large tracts of farmland at discounted prices. Miraculously, according to Trump’s comments today these foreign ultra-rich and oligarchs could be shopping defunct Nebraska Farm land in as soon as 2 weeks. Right on Time!

There are, of course, serious ramifications and fall out that will occur across the nation and the world’s food supply. But this is not important to those who will not be affected in anyway by food shortages. They only want the land. That’s my theory anyway. (Sources: Newsweek).

Also, I am pretty damn sure that he can’t just simply do this unilaterally because he had a random thought instead of choking on a Big Mac. The President can not just create a new fast track immigration pay-to-play program for the foreign wealthy. But I guess we are already over that right? That’s what an Emperor does, isn’t it? (Source: The Constitution? Maybe? Is that still a thing we have?)

Final Thoughts

Throughout history, individual acts of defiance have played a crucial role in preserving collective memory, especially in the face of authoritarian regimes that seek to control narratives and suppress dissent.

When individuals or organizations courageously resist oppressive mandates or challenge enforced narratives, they disrupt the systematic erosion of shared memory. Such acts compel society to confront uncomfortable truths, ensuring that events are remembered accurately and not distorted by those in power.

These individual efforts underscore the profound impact one person can have on the collective consciousness. By standing firm against attempts to rewrite or erase history, they help maintain the integrity of our shared experiences, ensuring that the lessons of the past inform our present and future actions.

In moments when authoritarianism seeks to encroach upon our freedoms, it becomes imperative for each of us to establish and uphold personal boundaries that reflect our commitment to truth and justice. By clearly defining the lines we will not cross—and resolutely maintaining them, no matter how silly it seems at the start—we not only protect our own integrity but also create pivotal reference points for society. These steadfast positions serve as beacons, illuminating the stark contrasts between democratic ideals and authoritarian overreach. Your unwavering stance can crystallize critical moments, enabling others to recognize and resist the gradual erosion of our collective rights. In doing so, you contribute to a legacy of resilience and courage, empowering future generations to uphold the principles of freedom and democracy.
