Why the Masters of Online Information Now Rival the Nation‑State with Jacob Siegel
Jan Jekielek for American Thought Leaders brings one of the most important interviews (and books) of our time
Click on photo for YouTube link to interview between Jan Jekielek and Jacob Siegel. It’s probably one of the best interviews I’ve seen. Jacob is absolutely primal in his ability to clearly explain everything from erosion of freedoms, to totalitarian state formation through NGO infestation.
He really has an exceptional ability to lay out complex issues very simply and clearly. I couldn’t recommend this interview more.
He also has a book on the go which I would highly recommend reading after hearing him speak.
I think the interview is somewhat misleading— a limited hangout. Mr. Siegel presents this information control as if it’s largely coming from the left and that Trump has dismantled some of it. This is completely mistaken as the right is very much involved in establishing a digital surveillance state and Trump, through his association with Musk, Thiel, Andreessen, etc., is very much a part of this technocratic advancement. Two things give broad evidence of this: one is that Trump never repudiated the mRNA platform even though he has access to critical information through his head of HHS (ie, RFK Jr), and the other is that his vice president was essentially “made” through the huge financial support and backing of the technocratic surveillance entrepreneur, Peter Thiel. Siegel completely misses the philosophical foundation of the technocratic vision in the form of “the dark enlightenment,” a philosophy prevalent among all the technocrats Trump has surrounded himself with, including Musk whose assertion that he was “dark MAGA” suggests this association. See Iain Davis for more on this very dangerous advancement taking place right under our noses while we’re legitimately concerned about the leftist global agenda.
The solution? Part of it is to enact laws against surveillance of citizens and to build guardrails around individual self-determination. The other huge piece of this is to establish honest science such that harms from 5G, for example, aren’t swept away in the rush toward a surveillance IoT, and we might remember that RFK Jr is on to this but gets no traction whatsoever from the technocratic- aligned Trump administration. That’s a tell as to what’s really going on, which Siegel mentions not at all.
Just sampled the video & it's unlikely I'll get to it today, but whether he mentions them or not, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝘄𝗼 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗹𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗿𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗻 𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗨𝗸𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗱𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗲-𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗺.
