Please, please everyone watch the incredibly disturbing video I link below. The video was created on Nov 14, right after the election. It is about the plans of 6 billionaires (Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Marc Andressen, Ben Horotwitz, Brian Armstrong, and David Sacks) who refer to themselves as Dark Gothic MAGA. The video regurgitates the words of these 6 men. Don't take anyone's word for it. Listen to their own words about their plans. Here is what billionaire Marc Cuban says in the video: >“… what’s happening in Silicon Valley is insane. It’s not so much a support thing. It’s more like a takeover thing. Trying to put themselves in a position to have as much control as possible. They want Trump to be the CEO of the United States of America and they want to be the Board of Directors that makes him listen to them.” Link: [VIDEO]

Yep, here's a pretty good summary: [VIDEO] Indeed I believe that the current administration's end-goal is the collapse of the US as we know it. Thiel and other billionaires need the collapse to create their own cyberpunk states inside current US territory. The remaining territory will be probably taken by Project 2025 guys, who want to rule it as a Christian theocracy / far-right utopia.

Musk et al.'s plan has been out in the open for a while. Lots of interviews and opinions from them the last few years, so I wouldn't even consider it an open secret. This video is probably the most succinct summary of it I've seen: [VIDEO] It was made two months ago and has been right on the nose so far in terms of the phases in their process.
