The Turning: Down The Rabbit Hole
Jul 9, 2026 · 1 hr 34 min · 13 segments
The conversation covers a wide range of topics related to tokenization, blockchain, computationalism, financial systems, and global economic dynamics. It delves into the impact of technology on…
The second piece is that moving from financialism, which is the religion that took over in the 1600s, that quite literally supplanted Christianity while wearing Christianity as a skin suit like Ed Gein, computationalism is now taking over for financialism and the concept, the fundamental concept of computationalism is that wealth is created by converting electricity into heat through the form of computation and the burning of that electricity and the creation of heat through complex binary processing creates wealth.
That is the most absurd alchemy in the history of the world, and yet we want to believe it.
Wouldn't they say that it's about increasing productivity, would be the argument?
No, they're actually straight-up articulating that wealth is created through the conversion of electricity into computation.
They're not even using the argument of productivity gains anymore because we stopped having productivity gains probably 25 years ago.
All we've gotten now is dramatically increased computation to compute orders of magnitude higher complexity that the compute itself created.
Kind of like CERN, at least that's what it looks like to me, just generating vast amounts of data that no one can read.
And we don't even know it's real anyways because it's an artifact and some sensor that was tuned to some BS thing anyways, right? That's
why they're having these, oh, what do they call them, where they have a lot of storage information.
Data centers.
Data centers all over the place.
That was my
And that's what I did in FinTech before that at NexCard was help build out their data centers.
I did other things too, working under one of the best mentors I've ever had, best executives I've ever worked for, Sean Dean.
No, sorry.
There's got to be some utility that they're going to be gaining out of this.
It can't all be BS.
