It is beyond stupid that our society has trusted green investors, renewable tech manufacturers and other profit-driven capitalists to solve the problems capitalism itself caused, using the only tool these crooks have ever known: capitalism. open.substack.com/pub/georgetsak…

When a civilisation uses all its intelligence, its creative energies, and intentions to simply undermine, hide, or deflect from the truth, it has ultimately undermined itself. open.substack.com/pub/georgetsak…

"Frankenpolitics" — a truth-revealing book written by George Tsakraklides. It aligns with the core philosophy of Sanatana Dharma, which worships nature — serving as a modern echo of the ancient way of living in reverence to the Earth. Politics is no longer for the people — it’s

The myth of growth was incredibly successful because it utilised an intuitive dogma all humans believe in: that having more of a good thing can only be a good thing. open.substack.com/pub/georgetsak…

thousands of years of psychological terrorism by the church and state convinced us that the worst thing that could possibly happen to humanity was sustainable growth and a sustainable population size. This misinformation campaign continues well into the present.

Humans are one of the most exploited species: having surrendered their time, energy, physical and mental health to a system ruthlessly using them to destroy the planet open.substack.com/pub/georgetsak…

A human who has stopped questioning reality has effectively lost their access to reality. They are no longer sentient. Many organisms we consider non-sentient have at this stage become more sentient than us. They are fully awake, immersed in objective reality, deeply grounded in

A rather perfect "meditation" for a Sunday morning. As George Tsakraklides understands, the only hope we have is to reclaim our moral consciousness and connect with objective reality as every other living thing on this planet does.

Capitalism thrives most vigorously on the vulnerable, the desperate, the enslaved and the defenceless, whether you are an orangutan in Southeast Asia or an undocumented sweatshop worker in New York City’s Hell’s Kitchen. open.substack.com/pub/georgetsak…

Our natural environment was never one of abundance. We evolved to be seekers and foragers within scarce environments, not consumatronic zombies trapped in endless shopping dystopias. We are happiest when we are in search of happiness rather than when we find it.

The US may have shed 33K jobs, but the economists who predicted 100K jobs would be added get to keep theirs: being paid too much to do fuck all, that is, aside from being puppets in a banana republic regime where tech oligarchs permanently shut Gen Z out of the job market with

I don’t want to become more “skilled” or “competitive” in the new job market. I’m not gonna bother competing with AIs. I just want to be Human. I think this is what we should all try to be. Stop now. You’re going in the wrong direction.

I think I have some followers who are fake AI authors. They have real books, except they are made by AI, like their profile pic. Are we already living through the end of the world? Because it looks like this civilisation is pretty much over. I mean, if I don’t know if you are

The AIs are coming here in their millions, stealing our jobs but not only that: replacing humanity in its entirety: our culture, entertainment, ideas, political discourse, everything. I was gonna say we should deport them back to microchipland but it looks like we’ll be begging

What are the odds this July’s Mediterranean heat is natural? About 1 in a billion! It's the most extreme Mediterannean heatwave on record. Peak anomalies +8C (+14F) now off France/ Italy with absolute peak temps near 31C/88F. Those are isolated, but how deviant are the overall

The only difference between a fungus on a petri dish and human civilisation is that while the former is genuinely unaware of its limits to growth, the latter is aware, but in full denial. open.substack.com/pub/georgetsak…
