Our Foundations Podcast

The conversation with Vin Armani continues with discussion on wokism and the Church of Woke, the influence of technology on religious movements, magic, the future determining the past, versions of technocracy, arborescent vs ryzomatic thinking, the spiritual world, powers and principalities, corporations as mystical beings, and much more. This is another very deep episode with some great insight o...

What does a modern NPC look like? How is the is / ought problem being manifested in current events? How does this apply to the coming Age of Science, of technocracy, of mysticism? What is the coming Theocratic Technocracy? How do the Church of Woke and Kingdom of God compare in the context of current societal shifts? All of these questions spawn from the first section of the Vin Armani Dim Age int...

There is a lot of talk of talk about conspiracies. I have done my fair share of content on the subject. There have also been a lot of historical comparisons made to current events and our current milieu. In this episode, I look at our current situation from a perspective of problem, reaction, solution and do this both from a conspiratorial perspective then a perspective of natural, historical, and...

Libertarianism, free market economics, anarchism, etc. are oriented around liberty, freedom, and moral societal organization. At the same time, these philosophies can easily be used as a tool for those working towards other systems of governance revolving around a technocratic oligarchical meritocracy. These philosophies have gone by many names and examples include technocracy, the New World Order...

This is an account of the formation of a local agorist group. If we want to apply agorism, having a network of local, like minded individuals is extremely important. I give my recent experience in starting a local group and related information.   - Website -  http://www.ourfoundations.podbean.com/ - Email -  ourfoundations@protonmail.com - Patreon page to support / donate -  https://www.patreon.co...

From agorism to permaculture, healthy living to self sufficiency, a homestead lifestyle fits right in. In this episode, I go over my journey from a few raised garden beds about 5 years ago to now having chickens, ducks, pigs, an orchard, berry bushes, a pond, gardens, and much more.    - Website -  http://www.ourfoundations.podbean.com/ - Email -  ourfoundations@protonmail.com - Patreon page to su...

In this episode, I go over all the podcasts I listen to regularly as well as others I have gotten value out of in the past. The following should be the master list of podcasts I mention: Free Man Beyond The Wall/ Unloose the Goose/ Grand Theft World/ Peace Revolution/ Corbett Report/ Media Monarchy/ Econtalk/ Bob Murphy Show/ Demography Unplugged/ The Grant Williams Podcast/ Tom Woods Show/ Paul L...

"The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country.       We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of...

Bio-security, "strongly suggested" vaccines, medical pre-crime, contact tracing, digital IDs, and more. This isn't a dystopian sci-fi novel, it's a list of issues evolving and rolling out in real time. What is their current status and how might these issues play out?    - Website -  http://www.ourfoundations.podbean.com/ - Email -  ourfoundations@protonmail.com - Patreon page to support / donate -...

There are multiple social cycle theories that I hadn't tied into my "Ages of Man" framework yet and I do so here. This includes Sarkar and the Hindu caste system parallels, the Yuga cycles, the cycle of mysticism to materialism, and Sorokin's ideational to idealistic to sensate cultural cycle. I also address election updates and how a Biden victory would alter my predictions for the future.   - We...

I hereby predict that in the coming months and years.... This episode is a breakdown of my thoughts on what's coming from a societal point of view. This would include the election, Covid-19, domestic terrorism, and the like. I think there will be a "Dark Winter" to spawn "The Great Reset" and allow us to "Build Back Better". It's all about controlled demolition and intentional remaking of all of o...

As the technocracy evolves, it becomes more complex, subtle, cultural, and ingrained and less visible, definable, hierarchical, and physical. It becomes more of a vision of Plato's Republic or Huxley's Brave New World or Asimov's Foundation series and can be even better understood through the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze with aborescent and ryzomatic thinking.   - Website -  http://www.ourfoundati...

Technocracy can take many faces and could be applied in many different ways. I propose that there are two main phases to the realization of technocracy in our current world. The first is addressed in this episode through the use of a few allusions- 1984 by George Orwell, The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli, and The Panopticon Writings by Jeremy Bentham. This is the phase we find ourselves in now and...

We are in a transitional period between two ages, the Age of Economics and the Age of Science. Said differently, from capitalistic to technocratic systems, from politicians at the helm to "experts". Transitional times are always rough but our current state of technology has an impact on this compared to other historical transitions between ages. The writings of William Henry Smyth compiled as the...

To wrap up the Reformation/ modern day parallels, I'm focusing on the similarities between the statism of today, with the U.S. as the example, and religion historically, with Christianity as the example. Statism isn't just like a religion or have a few commonalities. Statism is a religion and should be viewed as such to better understand the world of politics today.   - Website -  http://www.ourfo...

Whether one looks at the historical period of the Middle Ages through the Reformation or our modern era through the potential Digital Reformation into technocracy, banking, war, and technology play a huge role. Much of the backdrop and enabling factors are economic in nature and are spurred by new technologies in money and finance as well as new economic models and practices. There are also those...

This episode covers more historical patterns, this time from the Middle Ages with an economic bent. Topics include villa slavery in Rome to the serfs and wage slaves, decentralized local systems of production to centralized broader trade based economies, guilds to merchants, and related items of interest.   - Website -  http://www.ourfoundations.podbean.com/ - Email -  ourfoundations@protonmail.co...

When viewed as technologies that had a major impact on the respective societies they evolved in, these two examples look nearly identical. They brought about similar changes and worries and they were used in very similar ways by the commons and the institutions in each time.    - Website -  http://www.ourfoundations.podbean.com/ - Email -  ourfoundations@protonmail.com - Patreon page to support /...

The printing press and the internet revolutionized and influenced many aspects of society. Many things didn't happen until the technology evolved to a certain point. They broke the information model from a centralized hub and spoke model to a decentralized and autonomous system. Censorship was an issue, both as an impossibility and as a tool as the alternative movements that took off with the tech...
