Before reading The Cunning of History, I was beginning to put together the ultimate goal of corporatism: to reduce humanity even beyond the “wage slave” tyranny of history. But after reading this, the conclusion is inescapable. The “surplus human population”. Those rendered stateless by climate change, or by poverty and violence in their home countries. Watching as the felon sends innocents in chains to Guantan-a-Lago, I knew they would be forced into slave labor (although there’s been no plan or anybody in charge even to keep them alive, as of yet.) I hadn’t fully realized the implication that Jews had been forced to work until they died. I didn’t know about the German rubber company at Auschwitz.
Vance was forcefully reminding the EU about immigration they’ve perceived as a growing threat for years. Having read My Fourth Time, I Drowned, I knew the EU had been paying Libya vast sums since at least 2014 to prevent migrants from accessing the Mediterranean, and that Libya was incarcerating them in brutal prisons where they are forced to beg their families to pay extortion fees to keep them (barely) alive. Vance is encouraging White Europe toward the very thing Auschwitz “achieved”: the bureaucratization of modern slavery.
The relentless urge to dominate others is indeed a lethal virus in humanity’s bloodstream, the ugliest legacy of the Greco-Roman world we so cherish unstintingly.
Maybe it’s a good thing billionaires are rushing equally as fast to extract every last drop of fossil fuels. Maybe humanity’s extinction in climate collapse within three decades will be the final resolution and an appropriate end of the sheer madness to which we’re being compelled. How sad, that the human mind with all its brilliant potential has chosen to destroy the world or leave it, instead of improving it. How sad, too, that religion will have proven to be slavery’s most effective engine.
This might very well be the most defining moment in American history yet to date.
Project 2025 represents a genuinely true and dangerous existential threat to a freedom loving American Democracy.
Thank you so much for this book, Robert!

We will discuss this later.
