Claiming "Head of Household"

One of the many great things about "No Kings" is the variety of messaging we saw. Which means a variety of thoughts. For the progress side of America this is both good and bad because messaging can be scattered. As historically, there will always be the "free Tibet" Berkeley hippies there with those fighting for civil rights, affordable healthcare, and upholding the constitution. For the regress side of America, they're messaging is often more homogenized because there is less variety of thought. This unfortunately means its messaging can be parroted and echoed quicker. When we look at the phenomenon of theocratic fascist cults, whether they arise in the deserts of the ancient world or the digital jungles of the modern mind—we are observing the triumph of ideology over experience. These people, who we've said it before and we'll never stop saying it, in their latest incarnation, are in a fascist MAGA cult, nested in a regressive red cult, nested in a faux Abrahamic supremacist religious cult. So these thrice cult fervent disciples speak in unison because the narrow structure they inhabit demands it. Language, that great frontier of the individual spirit, within these tight canyons is commandeered, reduced, and weaponized into a tool of control. The spontaneous bloom of personal insight is replaced by the same dozen tired selfish asshole tropes, "You Marxist", "You Communist", "We're a Republic, not a democracy", "You wanna raise my taxes", etc...

The other day, on some of our content, we had a troll attempt to sling mud. They abided by the same exact pattern we see with every troll, who were triggered because what we were saying threatened one of their underlying fictional operating systems. Not to mention one of their multiple nested cults which they are in. We encourage you to listen to our previous insight titled "Regressive Reactionaries" because that is the pattern. Which is that we have never seen an American imperial advocate, meaning regressive, otherwise called a heavy "right winger" leave a proactive, or insightful, or considerate comment. Instead, the comments are always, always, always reactionary. The term reactionary is very precise, and when applied to those who claim to call themselves conservatives helps us overstand what is really happening beneath their false slogans and their terrible policy which hurts the average person, including themselves. A reactionary is not simply someone who holds traditional values. A reactionary is someone who defines themselves by opposition to change, someone whose entire political energy comes from the desire to reverse history, to roll back the clock, to resist the forward momentum of culture.These insight sub-episodes are mirrored on our primary YouTube channel which can be found at https://www.youtube.com/@NilesHeckman/videos

Complacency is a comfortable little narcotic of the mediocre mind. It’s the warm blanket people pull over themselves when they’ve decided that the status quo, however absurd, will do just fine. Complacency is not merely laziness; it’s moral sedation. It’s the smug conviction that because things are tolerable for someone, they must therefore be tolerable in general. A comfortable mental prison cell of negative certainty — well-upholstered, climate-controlled, and locked from the inside.Evolution, whether biological, psychological, or social, doesn’t favor comfort. It favors adaptability, curiosity, and the capacity to update one’s reality tunnel when the data changes. But complacency is the refusal to update. These insight sub-episodes are mirrored on our primary YouTube channel which can be found at https://www.youtube.com/@NilesHeckman/videos

The No Kings protests are a marvelous eruption of the human spirit into the political landscape. To see people in the United States of America, a society long habituated to the theater of managed choice and the soft hypnosis of consumerism, awakening and dancing in the streets beneath banners that declare the blatantly obvious “No Kings” — well, that is the body politic rediscovering its pulse and deeper spirit.Democracy, in its truest sense, is not a system of bureaucratic rituals or a cold architecture of laws. It is an ecstatic phenomenon. The collective imagination made flesh, the many realizing they are, like an ant hive or mycelial network, one organism with countless voices and are the most powerful. More than pedo oligarchs, or a nightmare fuel supreme court, or a deeply mentally ill criminal shitler clown president gone rogue. The No Kings movement, in its humor, in its refusal to genuflect before the false idols of authority, is a reclamation of humor and joy as a political act. And joy, my friend, is one of the most subversive forces in the cosmos. Tyrants and bureaucrats cannot understand it, for it arises from a source beyond fear or control so the MAGA cult of fear is so jealous of their joy because they have no joy and will have no joy until they leave the cult.These insight sub-episodes are mirrored on our primary YouTube channel which can be found at https://www.youtube.com/@NilesHeckman/videos

The fascist psyche of growing up in cults of lovelessness, sexual repression, internal fear and weakness, and shadow thrives on the fictional creation of an enemy so vivid, so grotesque, that violence against it can be justified. They long not merely to demonize the majority that aren't in their minority cult of dark imperial fake supremacy, but to provoke that other into striking back. Because the moment the patriotic people of dissenting voices are baited into violence, then the fasct clowns can don the mask of the victim and say, “See, we were right all along. They are dangerous. They must be controlled.”It is the same game that schoolyard bullies play, but writ large upon the political stage. They taunt, they insult, they try to strip away dignity, all with the hope of eliciting a punch. And the punch is then the justification for escalation, for repression, for the tightening of the wanna be authoritarian yet actually pathetic grip. Fascism requires chaos to sell order, it requires violence to sell security. Without the spectacle of blood and broken glass, its promises fall flat.These insight sub-episodes are mirrored on our primary YouTube channel which can be found at https://www.youtube.com/@NilesHeckman/videos

We very sporadically get feedback but it's few and far between. When we do get rare feedback, 2/3 of the time it's impressive, thoughtful, insightful, even educational, but most of all proactive. But the other 1/3 of the time the comments are so staggeringly poor they are laughable. We've noticed a consistent pattern in each and every one of these really atrocious comments - They are regressive and they are reactionary. Not to mention always coming from someone who is anonymous - A troll.These insight sub-episodes are mirrored on our primary YouTube channel which can be found at https://www.youtube.com/@NilesHeckman/videos

Oliver Kornetzke had a great summary of the American president in office in the year of our lord 2025 / otherwise called the imperial roman calendar which was co-opted and stolen from the more sophisticated indigenous to pagan lunisolar calendar. Fake pharisees Christians, which are the ones who are not love and light, loving their neighbors, but instead hate (just because they fear) everyone not like them and think they are supreme, which would be the subprime Christian Nationalists, and thank you non supremacist real love and light Christians who support us in also calling them out, think their fictional male sky daddy version of God works through imperfect people. The current one being someone who has been a lifelong criminal who should have been in jail since the 1970's and the Russian's have had kompromat on since the 1980's thus never should have even been allowed to have any sway in local New York City politics, let alone federal politics, let alone even run for office, let alone get elected to federal office, let along fail upwards as an entry level political position to the highest office in the land while continually committing crimes all the way up.  These insight sub-episodes are mirrored on our primary YouTube channel which can be found at https://www.youtube.com/@NilesHeckman/videos

What we are witnessing in what calls itself conservative but is really just regressive media in the west today is not journalism in the classical sense - it is court ritual, a choreography of flattery and fear. It has become sycophantic because it no longer serves truth but instead power and no longer enlightens but anesthetizes. In periods of higher consciousness, we had counsels of wise elders in democratic organization. In dark age kingdoms, monarchs were almost never the Walt Disney version of a philosopher King or Queen but we're instead more Alice in Wonderland "off with his head" egomaniacal psychopaths. Thus empires had to be built on lies where the person at the top was told they were good when they were instead really bad. Courtiers surrounded them echoing his words, magnifying his myths, and shielding him from the murmurs of the real world. The same drama is now enacted nightly across millions of glowing screens from thousands of different grifting sources.A sycophantic media ecosystem thrives not on inquiry, but on affirmation. It tells its audience what they already believe, and praises them for believing it. It replaces curiosity with certainty, complexity with outrage, and civic responsibility with tribal belonging. The news anchor becomes a priest of grievance, dispensing indulgences to the faithful and casting heretics into the outer darkness. The result is a kind of psychic feedback loop, where propaganda is mistaken for revelation and emotional arousal for insight.These insight sub-episodes are mirrored on our primary YouTube channel which can be found at https://www.youtube.com/@NilesHeckman/videos
