There's an idea: take your book and adapt it to an anthology of short-form videos. A lot of people these days won't read a book, but they will read scrolling subtitles on a TikTok-esque video one after another. I wonder how many videos that would take...

Is that fewer pages than before? I distinctly remember it being above 1,400 and joking about making it 1,488. At least there's still some serendipity with having 109 graphics, lol.
I think it may be a couple more pages by now, but only because I keep adding additional inline historical quotations to visually break things up when I have too many “walls of text” pages in a row. That often bumps the text formatting onto new pages.
I can’t wait for one of the first critical reviews to smugly point out, *“You denounce the use of logical fallacies, but your book is full of quotes from famous people across thousands of years all saying the same thing about jews, economics, society, warfare, and the nature of truth. So aren’t you being a hypocrite by using appeals to authority and tradition?”* completely missing the point.
The whole point of this guy's speech is that the only thing that can actually *look* like something happening is the total breakdown of society and civilization.
Things happen all the time, but the entrenchment of "rationalization" and the "managerial administration" prevent you from perceiving it, which is why you (Tallest) don't perceive it and thus conclude that "nothing ever happens".

I’ve lost hope for myself, but I’ve always had hope for others.
Brother I've lost hope for you as well. We all have.
