About this listen
Welcome to the intermission of empire, featuring interpretive dances by decaying institutions choreographed by lobbyists holding MBAs in short-termism.
Like the infamous Coke bottle in The Gods Must Be Crazy, today's techno-totems—quantum AI supremacy, sovereign digital currencies, and China's Belt-and-Data colonialism—have crash-landed onto our meticulously manicured lawns. Initially celebrated as symbols of progress, these shiny artifacts now function as civilization’s Rorschach tests, exposing strategic confusion and institutional amnesia as we outsource national strategy to TikTok algorithms.
Part satirical lament, part Rooseveltian call-to-arms, The Gods Must Be Crazy 2.0 dissects an empire that has gamified governance and pawned its industrial soul, where frogs leisurely simmer in debt-flavored snake oil and intellectual property vultures patiently circle overhead.
Meanwhile, China silently installs the firmware of global dominance, algorithmically colonizing over a hundred nations via its Belt and Road initiatives. While their emissaries calmly present invoices in Confucian grace, America passionately debates cartoon politics and the semantic nuances of infrastructure.
This book revives the Roosevelt Doctrine—not as nostalgic reverie, but as a policy defibrillator—to reclaim capitalist innovation, restore institutional competence, and resist digital authoritarianism before history enshrines us as a cautionary meme.
The whistle's about to blow, and the scorekeeper is toggling to Mandarin.
Ay Yi Yai Yi! We are in the middle of the New World Order!
