Episode notes
Novel Shows Pandemic Then Cyber Route To Collapse
- Mathew used his novel Electric Reckoning to explore a cabal trying multiple routes to collapse global systems.
- The plot shows pandemic depopulation failed, then cyberattacks on electricity grids escalate until a rogue master hacker subverts them.
Lockdown Amnesia Hides Continuing Harms
- Public amnesia about lockdowns masks ongoing harms like sudden unexplained deaths.
- Mathew cites continuing cases of young, athletic people and doctors unexpectedly dying as evidence the corona psychosis left unresolved harms.
Evil Elites Often Lack Strategic Competence
- Global elites are often incompetent; diabolical intent doesn't equal strategic competence.
- Mathew points to the Jeffrey Epstein network and projects like the F‑35 as examples of clumsy, poorly executed large‑scale efforts.
