He loves his iPad.

Okay, wonderful evening everybody. I'd like to thank everyone for coming to Professor Jiang's Austin, Texas meeting. I'm Jin Ta Cho and I organized this event. Soon there will be a lecture by Mr. Jiang, followed by a fireside chat and a Q&A session. Once we are done, we will have a socializing session where light food and drinks will be provided.

Mr. Jiang, who is known as Professor Jiang, started posting his classroom lectures on his YouTube channel called Predictive History, which became an internet sensation for his unique opinions. Since then, he has appeared for interviews on numerous prominent TV news talks, podcasts and live streams.

Without further ado, let's begin. Professor J, whenever you're ready, and let's give a round of applause for him.

Thank you so much. Yeah, so my son and I have been traveling around the United States for the past three weeks and we've been overwhelmed by the positive response. We're doing some podcasts and we've had four meetups so far. One in Los Angeles, next one was in New York, Tampa, and this is the fourth. And I am overwhelmed by the support of the community. I've been doing YouTube for the past two years.

I blew up like a year ago and I became really viral six months ago, but I never really had a chance to meet my community and I was just curious as to why people are watching my videos and who they are. And having been to many places I am surprised by the diversity of the audience. It is just any demographic. You'll have at least one person who likes my videos. I am also overwhelmed by the enthusiasm. It seems as though I'm really changing lives for the better.

Someone in Tampa told me that after watching my videos, he started getting better. He started to get along better with his parents. And I really didn't see the connection. But I'm really happy that, you know, his life is better. But so I feel as though I've started a movement, and I feel as though the sparks in people are starting to glow and together we're creating a beautiful movement. It's a global awakening. So thank you so much everyone for being here and I look forward to meeting all of you later today.

So without further ado I want to do a lecture for you guys, and it is on what I believe will happen in the United States over the next 50 years. Okay, it's called American Prophecy, my prophecy for the United States, guys. All right, so this class is going to be wild. All right, so prophecy, and I'm going to give you the short term, the midterm and the long term. Short term is I think Trump gets his third term. Okay. And I'm sorry. Yes. Okay. I am not manipulating the future.

PredictionDonald Trump will obtain and serve a third term as US president beyond 2028.Open

I'm just foretelling the future. Okay. So I think Trump gets his third term and I will explain why he'll get his third term and what it means for the United States. Okay? That's my first prediction. Second, and then midterm, I think what's going to happen is a civil war, which will lead to the... of the United States. And in the long term, what I think is going to happen, okay, and we're talking maybe 20 years from now, the United States will become a Christian AI theocracy. Okay, so Christian plus AI. And why I'm doing this in Austin is I think that Austin will be the new center of gravity of the United States.

PredictionThe US will descend into a civil war (Democrats vs Republicans, major cities in defiance) leading to the balkanization of the United States.OpenPredictionIn about 20 years the United States will become a Christian AI theocracy.Open

I think what's going to happen over the next 20 years is that the center of gravity will shift from the coast to the center, to the heartland. I think that New York City, Los Angeles, these cities will cease to be relevant and Austin will be the new capital of the United States. Not like political capital but the new cultural, economic, technological capital of the United States. And I think that the United States will become much more theocratic over time. Okay. So these are my predictions for the next 30 years.

PredictionAustin, Texas will become the new cultural, economic and technological capital of the US over the next 20 years, while New York and Los Angeles cease to be relevant.Open

And I want to explain to you my reasoning for these predictions and then paint you a picture of what this means for you. Okay. So the first thing is Trump's third term. Why is he getting a third term? I'm fairly convinced that right now he is intent on remaining in power and he will succeed. If you look at his actions over the past three, four, past two years, there are certain things that he's done that don't really make sense unless he was planning to stay in power for a long, long time.

So the first thing of course is his corruption. His family has made billions of dollars in cryptocurrency, and the Democratic Party, the Democrats, are assembling dossiers of evidence that will be used against him the moment he leaves office. Okay? So I don't think Trump's that stupid. Trump, for all his faults, he's very good at skirting the law. So if you look at his entire career, everything he's done in New York City, it's been unethical. It's been very corrupt. It's been amoral, but it's never been illegal. Okay? Whereas clearly the things he's been doing in Washington DC have been illegal.

And so you ask yourself, why would he do that? Why would a man who is very sensitive to the law, why would he blatantly infringe upon the law? Well, it's because the Supreme Court has said that as long as you're president of the United States, you are above the law. There's a ruling before Trump took office, and so as long as he stays in office, he cannot be prosecuted for anything he's done. Okay. Why would he stay in power beyond 2028? The answer is the American Empire needs someone like him.

So if you go back to the Biden era, the American Empire was in paralysis because basically Biden was senile and the people around him didn't have the balls or the authority to promote imperial interest. Right? So the classic example is when Putin invaded Ukraine on February 22nd, 2022, the Americans just complained a lot, right? So before the invasion, Jake Sullivan was saying, "Oh my god, Putin's going to invade. Putin's going to invade." And then after the invasion it's like, "Well, you shouldn't have invaded, so we're going to impose sanctions on you." Okay?

And Putin just ignored the sanctions. And it's been a disaster for the United States. The United States during the Biden era came across as ineffectual. Okay. So Trump is in power and maybe from our perspective what he's doing goes against American interests, but what he's doing is aligned with American imperial interests. Okay? And it's all been accelerating. So it seems as though he's making up for Biden's lost presidency. And we're seeing this war in Iran is one thing, but also the United States is encouraging the remilitarization of Japan to confront China.

We're seeing an economic detente repulsement between China and the United States. We're seeing the war in Ukraine escalate. Okay. So if you want to know what's happening, just read something called the National Defense Strategy. The National Defense Strategy was published in January of this year and it's calling for exactly what Trump is doing. Basically, rather than the United States guaranteeing peace for the world, Pax Americana, basically divide the world into regional balances of power that allow America to be basically the godfather. Okay. So in Europe it'll be NATO versus Russia.

In the Middle East it'll be Israel plus the GCC versus Iran. In East Asia it will be Japan versus China. And this will allow the United States to stay above the fray while influencing events. Okay. How the United States will do so is, one, by controlling all the major maritime choke points, including the Arctic Circle, the Strait of Gibraltar, the Panama Canal, the Cape of Good Hope, the Malacca, and then controlling the world's resources. Right? So if you want oil, maybe in the future the only place you get oil is the Western Hemisphere.

Why? Because only the Western Hemisphere is not at war. All right. So Trump is implementing the National Defense Strategy, and the main purpose of the National Defense Strategy of course is to maintain American imperial interest even though it may go against the interests of the nation as a whole. Okay. When I mean imperial interest, I basically mean the military-industrial complex, right? You need someone like Trump to forcefully impose American power around the world. Biden wasn't willing to do it. Kamala Harris was probably too weak to do it. Trump's the only person you have.

Part 210:34

And that's why I think that Trump will get a third term, because the empire needs Trump to get a third term. Okay. Now, what I want to do now is explain to you what the third term looks like. What is he going to do in a third term? And this is going to surprise a lot of people, but I think in his third term he's going to be very different from his first and second terms. That's a thing that people don't appreciate about Trump. He is able to change. You cannot judge his actions in the future from things he's done in the past.

So in the first term, he was not a very effectual president. He really couldn't get anything done. Russiagate really hobbled his presidency and the American military basically refused to follow his orders. So he ordered the withdrawal from Syria, they basically ignored him. Okay. So in his first term he was not effectual. In his second term he's a lot more effective. In his third term he's going to be very different. The reason why is in his third term he's basically a monarch.

Okay. If he's able to get a third term he'll probably get a fourth term and a fifth term. And I understand, yes, he's very old. But just hear me out. Okay. So to understand how he's going to behave in his third term, let's use a historical analogy. The historical analogy is Caesar when he comes to power after the defeat of Mark Antony at the battle of... sorry, the name is... what's that battle called? The major sea battle between Mark Antony and Octavius.

Jebity question.

Was it Actium? Was it Actium?

Was it Actum? Maybe it was Actum. Who cares? Okay, it doesn't matter. But after he wins, he's now the dominant power in the Roman Empire. And he does three things in order to consolidate his power. Okay. The first thing he does is he basically privatizes the army. Okay. So before, the Roman legions were paid by the state, and now he says, "Nope, in the future I myself will pay every person in the Roman legion." And how was he able to do that? He took over Egypt.

Egypt became his personal property, and Egypt at that time was the breadbasket of the world. Okay? It was producing most of the food for the Roman Empire. So if you control Egypt you control all the money, and he took all this wealth and then paid his soldiers. Okay? So I think Trump will establish his own private military and we're already seeing that happen with ICE. Okay. But there are also elements within the Pentagon who are very loyal to Trump. That's the first thing you will see in his third term.

PredictionIn a third term Trump will establish his own private military, building on ICE.Open

The second thing Augustus Caesar did was he recognized that he could not fight all the powerful factions in the Roman Empire. There's just too many of them. So what he did was he bribed them. He co-opted them. How? He gave them... Okay? He basically said, rather than fight me, let me give you Sicily and you can go run that any way you want as long as you stay loyal to me. So what Trump will do is he will basically colonize the entire Western Hemisphere. Okay? Canada, Greenland, Iceland, Mexico, Venezuela, Latin America, it will all come under American control.

And what Trump will do is he will partition the colonies to powerful American factions like multinationals. Okay. So maybe Exxon gets control over the Alberta tar sands. Okay. Does that make sense? Okay. So basically, did you have a question? See, Carney just fought back.

Carney fought back strong. I mean, he's the fifth largest corn bond holder. I'm about arguing.

Okay. Right. So that's a good point. Carney yesterday said, "We are not going to do whatever you tell us. We'd rather start a trade war." There are certain problems with Canada fighting back. First of all, Canada cannot fight back because it has no military. Okay? The idea of Canadians fighting against the American empire is just the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard in my life. Okay, that's number one. Number two is this economic relationship between the United States and Canada. It is not an equal one. It's not a fair one.

Canada sells the oil. America buys the oil. Okay? If you are the buyer, you're always right. So the idea that, okay, we won't sell you oil, good luck, back in Canada, man. Good luck when you have unemployment, when we have inflation, when Alberta secedes from you. Okay. So, yes, Carney is saying, you know, screw you, Trump. But Alberta needs the American market. And if Alberta is losing access to the American market, Alberta will probably secede. In fact, in October, Albertan voters are voting on whether to put on a ballot a secession plan, okay?

Or a plan for independence. So the idea that Canada can fight back against the United States, it's just absurd. Another theory is that Carney is going to put up a good fight, but eventually they'll just have to surrender. Okay? Because again, it is a non-equal relationship. The United States has a military, Canada does not. All right? And Canada exports most of its oil to the United States. Canada in effect is a resource colony for the United States. Okay, this is not a fight. Okay, so I think Trump will take over Greenland, Iceland, Canada, Mexico, Cuba, Venezuela, basically all of Latin America and North America, and then give it to all his friends.

PredictionTrump will colonize/take over the Western Hemisphere (Canada, Greenland, Iceland, Mexico, Cuba, Venezuela, Latin America) and partition it among allies and corporations, though he says the effort will not ultimately succeed.Open

Okay, which includes multinationals but also includes private individuals and families as well. Okay, that's the second thing he's going to do. Okay. Partition North America. And the third thing he's going to do, which is the most strange thing because you would never expect it from Trump, but this is exactly what Augustus Caesar did. Okay? When Augustus Caesar came to power, his main obsession, his main focus, was to revitalize the Roman religion. Okay? He became Pontifex Maximus, the head priest of Rome. Why? Because he thought that the major problem for Rome at that time, why, you know, women were not having babies and why there was civil war, is the lack of religious virtue.

So he sponsored the writing of the Aeneid by Virgil and he really promoted religious practices in Rome. So Trump, okay, and I know this is going to be really strange. Okay. But he's going to have a come to Jesus moment.

Come to Jesus. He will in his third term be like, "Oh my god, I have been so wrong all my life. I shouldn't have, like, so many porn stars. I shouldn't have, you know, started these wars overseas." But now, okay, I have a come to Jesus moment and I want to be the best Christian possible. I want everyone else to be the best Christian possible. So under Trump, you will have this massive push of Christian values. Okay? And again, okay, this is not something that he has planned.

This is something that people around him don't necessarily have worked out, but according to game theory, these are three things he has to do if he wants to maintain stability in his third term. All right. So when Augustus Caesar came into power, the three things he did, privatize the military, partition the Roman Empire and then promote Roman religious values, are things that he had to do in order to maintain his hold on power, or these are things that he did over time. Okay? Because he had no choice in the matter.

Same thing with Trump. Trump does not have a plan for his third term. He only wants to get his third term. But once he gets his third term, according to game theory, the best way for him to maintain power is to do these three things, okay? Have his own private military, ICE, basically work with different factions to partition the Western Hemisphere, and promote Christianity as a state religion. Okay. All right. So that is the short term. Now, let's go to the midterm. Yeah. Is that a real come to Jesus moment for him or is that just he's going to use that as a way...?

That's a great question. Yes, it's so strange, but it's going to be real. Okay, it is the strangest thing in the world, but this guy is the farthest from a Christian, and in fact there are rumors online that he's converted to Judaism. Okay, but when the time comes, he is going to have a real come to Jesus moment. Meaning in his bedroom late at night while he's munching on his cheeseburgers and watching Fox News, Jesus will really come to him in his bedroom and really talk to him and say, "Hey, Trump." And it'll scare the out of him and he'll be like, "Okay, from now on I'll be a good person." Okay, I know it sounds kind of strange, but historically we've seen these things happen before.

Part 320:14

So the most famous example is Constantine, right? The emperor of the Roman Empire, who had won these major wars against all his enemies and now he's the sole emperor, and then he has a come to Jesus moment like, oh, war is bad and we should never fight a war again now that I'm the emperor, so let's all... And he made Christianity the official religion of the Roman Empire, okay, and he was the first person to do so. Another example is Ashoka, who was an Indian emperor who again won all his wars against his enemies and he's like, oh, war is bad.

Let's do Buddhism instead. Okay. So I'm not saying this cynically. I'm just saying there's a pattern and each time this happens, it is pretty real. Okay. So I think that Trump will have a come to Jesus moment in his third term. I don't know when, but he will, and his followers will believe it and he will promote Christianity as a state religion. Okay. Yes.

PredictionTrump will have a 'come to Jesus' moment in his third term and promote Christianity as a state religion.Open

Yeah. If Trump were to actually get a third term, do you think he'll actually be successful in conquering the Western Hemisphere? Because hasn't his administration's recruitment been wildly incompetent militarily?

That's a great point. Yeah. Exactly. So the question is, okay, you want to colonize the Western Hemisphere, but are you going to succeed? The answer is no. Okay, this is why I want to go into the midterm now. Okay, so let me do the midterm prognosis. Okay. So while Trump is doing this, there are certain issues, crises, that are created because of these policies. Okay. The first is the Democrats will become politically neutered. Okay. And who are the main backers of Democrats? Wall Street. All right.

So what's going to happen is there will be winners and losers in Trump's third term. The major winners will be the tech oligarchs, people like Elon Musk and Peter Thiel. The major losers will be Wall Street and the Democrats, and they'll be pissed about it, right? And so what they recognize is that they can't actually win at the ballot box because there's so much cheating going on or Trump has consolidated too much power. So their response will be to instigate a civil war. Maybe at first it'll be political assassinations, insurgencies where cities like Boston, New York, Los Angeles refuse to follow Trump's orders.

PredictionWall Street and the Democrats, losing out to tech oligarchs, will instigate political violence escalating into full-scale civil war.Open

So Trump sends in ICE or whatever. Okay. So maybe in the first few years it will be a lot of insurgencies, a lot of political violence but not a full-scale war, but eventually it will metastasize into a full-scale war. Okay. So that's the first thing. That's the first issue. Second issue is, as you point out, people don't like it when they're colonized. People don't like it when you come in and impose a government on them. Okay. So look at Venezuela, where right now, you know, Venezuela is following US orders.

So they've withdrawn from the ICC. Delcy Rodriguez is doing a lot of things that Trump wants. That's very different from what Trump wants in the future, which is to impose a colonial administration upon Venezuela. Why? So his buddies can steal as much money as possible from the Venezuelan people, right? And when you do that, what's going to happen is massive unrest all around Latin America. Okay? Maybe not Canada, but definitely in Mexico, in Latin America, in Venezuela, in Colombia, okay? And the reason why is when Trump sends his buddies to Venezuela, it's not to make the Venezuelan economy much more efficient so everyone can benefit.

All right.

If these are such predictable failures like the Iran war, why would... there's assuming there's a powerful United States deep state committed to global hegemony, why would Trump be allowed to subjugate and attack the Western Hemisphere, such...

Fail? Yeah. So you're absolutely right in nag. Okay. Why hasn't the United States done this sort of stuff in the past before? Because everyone can tell you it'd be a cluster... Okay. Why hasn't the United States just gone and conquered the entire Western Hemisphere? Because you would just create so many insurgencies that it's not really worth the cost. So you're absolutely right in that most analysts, most deep state actors would be like, "Let's not do this." Okay. The problem is that the people around Trump stand to benefit a great deal from this.

So yeah, okay, the carpetbaggers go to Venezuela and they create an issue and it's a complete dumpster fire that the United States has to deal with for the next hundred years. They don't care because they can take the money and run off to Dubai or Hong Kong or Singapore. Okay, transnational capital, guys. Okay, that's how things work. You use the nation state. You are a parasite on the nation state. All the costs are shouldered by the nation state and you reap all the winnings. Okay, and so that's what will happen.

Okay. So you have the Democrats trying to cause violence in the United States to destabilize the Trump regime. You have violence throughout Latin America because people do not like to be colonized and Trump's buddies are stealing everything in sight. Okay. The third thing that's going to happen is an economic collapse and a national draft.

So the US economy right now is not sustainable the way it is. 50% of GDP growth is AI speculation, right? So AI data centers, ChatGPT, but no one knows how these things actually make money in the long term. It's all just, you know, just a delusion. So eventually this collapses and then you have millions of people laid off. This is really the white-collar apocalypse. Okay. So, next 5 to 10 years you have a white-collar apocalypse. In the 80s and 90s, the United States transferred a lot of jobs, blue-collar jobs, manufacturing jobs, from the United States over to China.

PredictionThe AI-speculation-driven US economy will collapse within 5 to 10 years, causing a 'white collar apocalypse' with millions laid off.Open

This was the blue-collar apocalypse. We are now going to witness the white-collar... Not just because of the AI bubble collapse, but also because of the war in Iran, right? Because of the war in Iran, the entire global supply chain network is breaking down. Some of you probably work in the global supply chain network and you know how hard it is now to source materials, right? So if they can't source materials, then they have to lay off workers. Okay? So in the next 5 to 10 years you're going to have economic collapse, white-collar apocalypse, and then what the United States is going to do is impose a national draft, not just for war, but it's basically like a federal works program.

PredictionThe US will impose a national draft/federal works program for young people after an economic collapse.Open

So think about the Great Depression and how FDR's New Deal hired millions of people to work for the Tennessee Valley Authority, different organizations. So the national draft is just a way to control young people. Did you have a...

Yes sir. I was just wondering how far does the AI surveillance state get in the United States?

Yeah. So AI surveillance, that's a fifth thing. Okay. As the economy collapses, as violence surges and as young people rebel against the system, you will have an increase in the AI surveillance state, and this is the one thing that is growing very rapidly. Okay, so when the AI bubble collapses, it does not mean, okay, Peter Thiel is out of a job. Okay, that's not what it means. It just means what's going to happen is the US government is going to come in and bail out the AI companies.

Okay, they're too big to fail. Same as in the 2008 great financial crisis, where basically Wall Street destroyed the global economy. What happened? Well, the American government came in, bailed them out, and they all paid each other very hefty bonuses. Okay? Same thing's going to happen here, where you're going to have the AI bubble collapse and that's good for these companies because the American government will come in and absorb all the losses. AI data centers will be nationalized and be protected by the military. So if you don't like AI centers, too bad.

PredictionWhen the AI bubble collapses, the US government will bail out AI companies and nationalize AI data centers under military protection.Open

Okay, it's eminent domain now. Okay, you can't complain about the water, the electricity. These are military installations. So the AI state will just grow and grow. Okay, but as you can see, when you have these elements in place in the midterm, you're going to have massive chaos throughout the United States, just civil war. I'm not saying it'll be like, you know, North versus South. It will be Democrats versus Republicans. It will just be the Balkanization of the United States, where each region is in conflict, especially the major cities, New York City, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles.

PredictionThe AI surveillance state in the US will keep growing as the economy collapses and violence rises.Open

So that I think will happen. Okay. Another reason why civil war is bound to happen is because of the nature of the United States. The United States is a unique society in that it doesn't really have an ethnic nationalist creed. What binds Americans together is the idea of money, right? You judge people based on how much money they make and everyone aspires to make money and that's what binds everyone together, the love of making money. When you have a society like that, that society eventually exhausts itself.

Part 430:09

Okay. So let me give you an example. Psychologists have run experiments, right? So you have two groups. The first group does things just for intrinsic motivation, just because they like it. Okay? So for example, the psychologist will go into a first grade class and divide the class into two. The first is to draw just for fun. Okay? In the second group, they'll say, "Hey, draw because we'll pay you for each painting you make." Okay? And as you can imagine, in the first couple weeks, the second group draws a lot of paintings because they get money to go buy chocolate and go see movies and watch iPad, which is what my son is doing right now.

Okay? But over time, the second group exhausts itself. Okay? It's all just intrinsic motivation. It's all just love of money. But eventually you get sick of it and you stop doing it. But the first group continues, and so after maybe five years the psychologists have discovered that the second group refuses to draw. Okay? They just hate it unless you pay them a lot of money. The first group just continues to love to draw. Okay? And this is a pretty consistent finding in social science. And this is what we're finding in the United States, where for decades it's a love of money that has really motivated Americans.

When you do that, you exhaust people. Okay? Especially those who don't make that much money, especially young people nowadays. That's why young people don't want to work, because they're exhausted by the idea of money, but also there's really no opportunities for social mobility in the greater economy. Okay. So yeah, you have a civil war, you have the Balkanization of the United States, and when this happens, certain leaders will emerge. And I don't know who will win, but I think that in the long term the faction that is most likely to win, okay, will have certain characteristics.

Okay. The first is the winner will be based in Texas. Okay. Austin. Okay. That's why I'm giving this lecture, because you guys here will be the future center of gravity of the United States. All right. And I can feel that because I've been to Los Angeles. I've been to New York. I've been to Florida, and I can say, look, if I were American I would move to Austin today. I'm not American. I would love to move to Austin. Okay. But there are certain reasons why. One is this place is extremely energetic.

People here work hard. The cost of living is pretty affordable compared with New York City or Los Angeles. I was in Santa Monica, and it's like the zombie apocalypse, man. I mean the wealth inequality is just obscene. The number of homeless is just crazy. And I also like Austin because it's in Texas and this is Christian country. Okay, you may not be Christian, but there are a lot of Christians and they're very family orientated. So Texas is probably... I actually don't know, but I assume it's younger than most US states and the fertility rate is higher than most US states, especially the west and east coast.

Okay, so first of all, I think whoever wins will come from Texas, Austin, the South. Okay, that's number one. Number two is this is a person who will espouse Christian nationalism. Okay. So I think Christian nationalism really is the future of the United States. If you can't use money to bind everyone together, then you need to use religion. Okay. And the religion that makes the most sense is Christian nationalism, given what I've seen so far. And the third thing is using AI in order to control everyone.

PredictionThe faction that wins the US breakup will be based in Texas/the South, espouse Christian nationalism and use AI for control.Open

Okay. So, you know, Joe Rogan was on the Jesse Michels podcast. And look, Joe Rogan does not do other podcasts, okay? So he went on that podcast for a reason. And the reason why is he said on that podcast, Jesus will return as an AI. And that I think could be prophetic. Okay? I think that in the future AI will combine with Christianity and, you know, you might have a microchip or Neuralink in your brain where Jesus is talking to you every single day, and would that be a great thing, you know, because then you can do no evil and you'll be a very happy person because Jesus is your personal God, right? Yes.

Would there be religious persecution in that environment, like the Gnostic Christians especially? Yeah. So unfortunately, that's why it's called theocracy, okay? Because it doesn't really permit other religions. So if you're a homosexual, too bad, guys. If you are a woman who wants to work, too bad. You're going to have kids, you have a lot of kids. If you are, you know, an atheist, if you're Gnostic or agnostic, too bad. Okay. Now, I think that the Christians will come to an accommodation with maybe the Muslims, right, and the Jews, because they're all religious and they're all seen as part of the Abrahamic tradition, but they will not allow for homosexuals, for... Yeah.

Yeah. There'll be a lot of persecution. Sorry. Yeah. Okay. All right. Okay. So this is my picture for the United States over the next 30, 40 years, and as you can imagine it's a very bleak picture, but guys, it's much worse everywhere else. Okay. All right. I mean, the thing is that this is probably the most optimistic picture for any nation for the next 50 years. And the reason why is the United States, for all of its problems, is still self-sufficient. Okay, look at Texas, where you can grow your own food and you have your own energy supply.

It is protected by two oceans. So you have actually no real enemies to face. And the people in the United States are still very energetic, very creative. Okay, so I know this looks bad, but I guarantee you this is probably the best outcome of other nations. If you look at a place like East Asia, you're going to have basically hundreds of millions starve to death. Okay? Same with Africa. Europe is a dumpster fire. The Middle East, I'm not even going to talk about, okay, it's pretty bad. Okay? But yeah, so this is my picture of what it looks like.

PredictionHundreds of millions in East Asia will starve to death in the coming decades, while Europe and Africa fare worse than the US.Open

And so, questions, guys. Yes.

Where do you see eschatology overlapping within that 30-year time frame, both in the United States but also abroad? Whether that's in the Middle East and, you know, some of your predictions that you've had with the Third Temple and things like that.

Yeah, that's a really interesting question. Okay, so I talk about eschatology, right? And believe it or not, the vision that I just presented to you is actually part of an eschatological tradition. Okay, Freemasonry. All right. So I talk a lot about the Cabala and these messianic Jews and the Islamists in the Middle East. Then you have Russia, the Third Rome prophecy. But the Freemasons have their own prophecy and it should create something called a technate.

All right. So there are certain things distinctive about Freemasonry. Freemasonry is basically a religion of... And for them the highest god is reason. Okay. So they believe that God does exist but God does not participate in the world. God created us in order to be our own god, in order to create the world that we want. Okay. We call this deism. Deism. And for the Freemasons the ultimate god is reason. And the objective is to make everyone reasonable. So beyond prejudice, beyond tradition, beyond family, beyond emotions, okay, just pure... And the metaphor that they use is imagine each person as a perfect cube, okay?

A perfect stone, a perfect cube. And the person achieves this through self-education, self-cultivation, self-refinement. Okay? Constantly shaping your soul into one that is a perfect cube. Well, once you have that cube in place and you put all the cubes together, you can create a temple. Okay? And then God can come live in this temple. And that is the objective of Freemasonry, to have everyone become a perfect cube spiritually, okay, through spiritual alchemy. And then once we have that then God can come to our world and live with us and we can all be one temple.

This will be paradise. The problem though is people aren't really reasonable and this will take forever. Okay. So is there a mechanism which will allow us to accelerate this process? And the answer is yes. It's called AI, right? Artificial intelligence. Okay. So if you know Freemasonry you know there's a G in the square and compass, right? So what does G stand for? Well, G stands for three words. The first of course is God or Grand Architect. Okay, just the higher being. Okay, God. The second G is... Okay, because you know if you're a Freemason you believe in using mathematics in order to refine the world.

Part 540:18

Okay, geometry. The last G that people don't appreciate is something called the generative principle. Generative principle. And the idea here is that we as humans have the capacity to create the world that we want. Okay. Now when you put the three G's together, God, geometry, generative principle, you get a sentence, right? Which is geometry generates God. Okay? Which is AI, right? What is AI? Artificial intelligence. Sorry, what is AI? It's mathematics. What is mathematics trying to do? It's trying to replicate the mind of God.

All right? Now, we have AI in place. Now it's possible to turn everyone into a perfect cube, right? Think of Neuralink, think of ChatGPT, right? So everyone has a microchip, and then the moment you're born, you are always on the path to righteousness, to virtue, right? Wouldn't that be the perfect world? So that's the world they're trying to create. So the technate, this is the soul of the technate. Okay, the technate also discusses the physical boundaries of paradise. And so the technate believes the US has to be at the center of it.

Okay, this is the new Jerusalem. And the technate also wants to absorb Canada, and Latin America extending all the way to Venezuela and Colombia. If you look at this map, Trump, where is Trump most aggressive? Well, he's been talking about annexing Canada, right? He's talking about Greenland. He's talking about going after the cartels in Mexico. He's taking over Venezuela. He's also talking about Colombia. There's a new right-wing president who's very loyal to Trump in Colombia. Okay. This is the technate, guys. They are right now achieving the technate.

Okay. So the physical boundaries are... so sorry, let me finish. Okay. The physical boundaries are now being set in place. The actual operating system of the technate is a monarchy. All right? So rather than democracy, let's have a monarchy. Why? Because it's much more efficient. So if you've been following the news, you know that Trump is obsessed with something called the ballroom.

Right? The ballroom. That's the thing he cares the most about. He doesn't really care about the war in Iran. He doesn't really care about anything else. He cares about his stupid ballroom. Okay? It's basically the East Wing. So why is he concerned about the ballroom? Well, the answer is it's not what it is that matters. It's what's underneath it that matters. Okay? So you have the White House and you have the ballroom. Okay? And what you guys need to appreciate is who the contractors for this construction project are.

And it's often companies that specialize in building data centers. All right? So they're digging a huge facility under the ballroom. And this is meant to be a data center. Why is this important? Because this data center, because it's by the White House, will be protected by executive privilege. Congress has no authority over what goes on inside this data center. Okay? So what's going to happen is the president will now be able to have his own NSA, CIA and FBI. Okay? He'll be able to control the entire United States from his White House.

This is an imperial presidency, right? Imagine what a person can do if he has all three agencies under his control, the FBI, the CIA and the NSA. He will be able to monitor everyone and basically blackmail everyone, right? He will know what everyone wants, what everyone does. Everything you've done online will be able to be accessed by the president of the United... All right? So that's the idea here, for the president to have the imperial... and he establishes that through information, right? Data, and this creates the imperial presidency, a monarch, a king.

And people like Curtis Yarvin have grown around saying how this is really the future right now, because of political polarization democracy can no longer work. You need an executive in charge in order to run the country more efficiently, and so just make the president into a king. Right? Okay. So this is what the eschatology is, the Freemason eschatology. Okay. Number one is a vision of using AI to sculpt individuals perfectly. Number two is to create the physical boundaries of the United States so that it is basically invincible.

It is impenetrable. Okay, it is self-sufficient. It can never be invaded. And the third thing is to create a government structure that will allow for the more efficient control of government. Okay. So this is Freemason eschatology.

Sorry, you had a question.

Yes. I was just wondering, in Freemasonry do perfecting cubes have stark extramarital relationships in the midst of, you know, what's sort of like World War II? And if so, that does not, I think, good Christianity from my understanding.

Yeah. Okay. So yes, I mean we can look at the hypocrisy of the Freemasons. Okay, there's a lot of hypocrisy. The problem is this is what they believe and this is what they want to achieve, and they are very utopian, and they see Trump as a tool in order to achieve this grand vision. Trump doesn't see it that way but they see Trump that way. Right? So if you're Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and you believe in the technate, you believe in this eschatology, then Trump is a useful idiot in order to achieve this.

Yeah. Yeah. So you have a question back there.

Right? So I mean, how do you factor in the power of banks, the Bank of England, that power structure, and sort of the anathema to...

Yeah, that's a great question. Okay. So in this conception, okay, what you're doing is replacing the power of money with AI. When you have AI, you don't need money anymore, right? Because money is a way to control people, to motivate people. But if you have AI, if Jesus is talking to you, you don't really need to make money anymore. Okay? You might be given rations, but you don't need to make money, right? So this system is meant to replace transnational capitalism, and that's why there's a civil war, and that's why there will be a civil war, because the tech oligarchs, if they get their way, money will become redundant, right? If money becomes redundant, the bankers will lose all their power, especially the Bank for International Settlements, the central bankers, right? So they will fight for control, because there's no empire that dies willingly, that just volunteers and says, you know what, I've had 400 years, 500 years, now it's time for me to pass the baton.

Okay, that will never happen. That's why you have a civil war to burn things down. Okay.

I have a question about Southeast Asia. In one of your previous lectures, you mentioned Malaysia being one of the four countries that was a safe place to...

I didn't say that. Did I say that?

Yeah, I think it was New Zealand, Malaysia, Chile and Botswana. Those were the four that...

Did I say Malaysia? Yeah. Yeah.

Okay. I don't remember saying Malaysia, but I was wrong.

Yeah. I might go there, right? But I don't think Malaysia is that safe. I don't think any place in Southeast Asia is safe. But the others, Chile, New Zealand, Botswana, are considered safe.

Okay, that answers my question.

Sorry. Yes. Do you think Trump might have been genuinely convinced by some party like the Israelis, for instance, that he is the Antichrist? And that's...

No, he's not the Antichrist. He's the...

Come on, man. Get the terms correct. He's not the Antichrist. He's the Messiah. Come on. I think that Trump in his heart believes he is a messiah, because I mean, this is something about human nature. We cannot explain this logically. Okay. But let's just say you're something like Peter Thiel and you were born not rich or born middle class and then you just magically become a billionaire. How do you explain that to yourself? Right? Well, most of us will be like, "Well, you just got a lucky computer the..." Okay, but he doesn't believe that.

That's how his mind works, right? He's like, "Well, the only reason I can understand why I've been given tens of billions of dollars, and so his power, is God has chosen me for a divine mission." Okay? And I think that's true for anyone who has been so successful that it's beyond that person's imagination. That person needs to reconcile that, otherwise it creates too much cognitive dissonance. Okay. Same thing with Donald Trump. How does Donald Trump explain, like, he became president in 2016, 2020 they rigged the election against him, and 2021 January 6 there was basically a coup against him, right?

Part 650:18

And all these people abandoned him and he hit rock bottom. Remember when he went to Mar-a-Lago, the FBI raided his place. There was lawfare conducted against him. His family abandoned him. Jared Kushner ran away. And that at that moment was his point of just greatest depression. Okay. He may not seem it, but he was in great despair. It seems as though the world has abandoned him. But there were certain individuals who did not abandon him. They include Sean Hannity. In fact, during this time, remember, this is a time of Trump's greatest low point.

Sean Hannity was calling every single day saying, "Don't worry, things will get better." Miriam Adelson did not abandon him, right? Not only Harp did not abandon him.

Okay, so what do these people have in common? They're all Zionists. Okay. N are Christian Zionist. Morrison is just a Zionist, and they all believe that Trump was put on earth, put in the White House, for a special divine mission. Then in 2024 he wins again, right? So if you're Donald Trump and you're a human being, the only way that you can reconcile all that's happened to you is God has chosen you for a special mission, and everything that happened before, you losing the 2020 election, January 6, all this lawfare, it was meant to test you.

It was meant to strengthen you. It was meant to turn you into a sword of steel for the coming mission. Okay? And the coming mission is to usher in the end times. The end times includes the tag in North America. It also includes the war of Gog and Magog in the Middle East. Okay, it was all meant to happen. Again, I'm just saying as a human being, put yourself in Trump's position, right? How do you explain what happened? Your only explanation is God's hand is at work. It cannot be random.

It makes no sense. Okay. It has to be God himself that is manipulating events and you must do what God commands you to do. Okay? And this I think is the best explanation for what's happening in the Middle East. Otherwise, guys, I can't explain any of this. Okay? If you're like, he's just doing this geopolitically, it's imperial interest, it's the MIC, military-industrial complex, it's this... I can't really explain it. Yeah. Yeah.

To your point, and I'm not arguing one point, that's a good moral law goes to a good starting point, and I agree that only Harvest, but the people that embraced them and were the Christian Zionists, and one of those people that you jumped over was more important than all of them, was Charlie Kirk. And Charlie Kirk had Christianity behind him, and Charlie Kirk was a good... I'm not that I agree or whatever you said, whatever, this kid was genuine. All these other players that you're bringing about are disingenuous. Pam Bondi as an attorney general was a joke.

Pete Hegseth, I'd say it's a joke. I mean you see Robert, so Charlie, which delivered the Christian audience to him, didn't get a good treatment. Now, not agreeing with Baron or Candace or Tucker or whatever, all this oldest media that's coming down, but this media has TV USA outnumbered 20 to 1. Not only on audience, but on logic and on reason. This whole picture of this Tyler Robinson, I'm not saying Tyler Robinson could be guilty. He could be the way that the feds are presenting, but there's a lot of questions.

So going back to what you said, which I agree with, Mar-a-Lago, the raid, using lawfare against him and him being in a tight spot. Charlie was behind him. Look at the treatment that Charlie got. The next guy who wants to help him out in a tough spot, do you think he's going to jump in?

So you know, I don't want to comment too much on Charlie Kirk. Okay. I mean it's very controversial what happened, but I think the people around Donald Trump are both incompetent and fanatical, which is the most dangerous combination you could ever have. Okay, incompetent and fanatical. Someone like Pete Hegseth. The guy's clearly incompetent. Okay, but he's also fanatical. He's a Christian Zionist. He has all these Templar tattoos on his body. And I believe in 2019 he gave a speech in Jerusalem saying the Third Temple is coming.

All right. So I think that it's easy to dismiss the people around Trump as charlatans, but I think the real problem is they're zealots. They're fanatics. And unfortunately logic, reason, numbers do not defeat fanaticism. Okay. If you have a group of fanatics in place, they often get what they want because quite honestly, they're willing to kill and die for what they believe in and no one else is, right? So that is I think the issue facing the United States. Okay. So that's it for my lecture. Okay. And we have a fireside chat.

Okay. So maybe we'll break for two minutes. We'll get set up and then we'll start. Okay. Thank you. I need to use the restroom really quickly. I...

I need you to use the restroom really quickly. Yeah. All right. Thanks. Do you know where the restroom is? Okay.

Just go this way. Thank you so much.

Thank you.

And we will begin a fireside chat which will be followed by a Q&A session where you will raise your hands and then you will get a chance to ask questions to Professor Jiang, and then after all that we will have a nice socializing session where we'll have some food, drinks and so on.

All right. Thank you, Professor Jiang, for your wonderful lecture tonight. I want to start off by asking this question. So, you speak out loud about a lot of topics that could be very uncomfortable for those elites.

Yeah. And aren't you scared that what you're saying upsets a lot of powerful people? So why do you speak the truth? What compels you to speak the truth as opposed to just living a comfortable, quiet life?

Okay. So let me first address the issue of how dangerous it is to speak the truth. And my theory, and I could be wrong, okay? I could be dead tomorrow, but my theory is the elite think I'm a complete... Okay? Because if you are part of the system, if you're part of the elite, you actually don't know what's going on, because so much has been compartmentalized. Okay? You're just doing what you should be doing. And no one actually has an overall picture of what's going on. Maybe Satan, maybe Lucifer, okay, was really not a human member of the elite.

I've met members of the Illuminati. I know they're members of the Illuminati and they have actually no idea what's going on. Okay? They're just doing what they are told to do. They're doing what according to game theory maximizes their benefit. And that's why we have the system that we have today. And that's why it is so resilient and so powerful, because each of the individual members of this apparatus, they're just doing what is in their best interest and they don't really see how they're part of these structural forces that are determining history.

Okay. So if you talk to someone like Peter Thiel and you explain to him my theories of the technate, he would just think, you know, well, this guy's really creative, that's interesting, maybe I'll do that, and he doesn't recognize that he's actually doing this stuff for this reason. Okay. So another thing, imagine you're an NFL player. Okay. You're a quarterback like Tom Brady. If Tom Brady every day is like, what is the overall structure of what I'm accomplishing? What's the purpose of the NFL?

Well, that would just confuse him. You know, his job is to go into every game and perform to the best of his ability, which is to throw a ball at someone. Okay? He's not thinking about the overall macro structure of the game and its purpose and whether or not it is actually conducive to human creativity. He doesn't care. Right? So all these players, all the elite, they're just interested in maximizing their own personal benefit. But it means working with the other elite in order to achieve this eschatology.

Part 71:00:22

Okay. There are occultists, people who practice Cabala who want to achieve this, but they're only influencing events and they themselves actually believe that they're just given a message by God and they themselves don't even see the whole picture. Okay. So this macro analysis is unique to what I do and a lot of it is speculation, a lot of game theory analysis on my part. So what would put me in danger, okay, is if I were to do certain things. The first one that would put me in danger is if I knew these members of the elite and they provided me with extensive information, evidence that I would present to people.

Okay, then I'm a threat to them because this evidence can be used in a court of law or can be used by their enemies in order to sabotage what they're doing, right? Because the elite is not unified. There's a lot of factions that are fighting against each other. Okay? So if I had direct evidence that someone was criminally liable for something, then my life would be in danger. All right, that's number one. Number two is, let's just say one of them says to me, "I like what you do. Here's $100 million to do a podcast." Well, when you take that money, it's assumed that you will now speak on their behalf.

It's assumed that you will now do what they tell you to do. Otherwise, why would they give you that money? Okay. So if you were to betray them and say, "Look," if you were to betray their secrets, but you had a contractual obligation with them, then your life is also in danger. Okay? So only if you do one of these two things would they want to kill you. Either if you have some evidence that could cause them problems, or if you betrayed them, would they want to kill you?

If you're just doing your own YouTube channel and you don't know these people and you have absolutely no daily interactions with them, it's just easier for them to ignore you. Okay. So if someone like Andrew Wilson, his debate with Candace Owens went as badly as it could possibly go. All right. Do you think he went home and said, "Oh my god, I'm such a... and I let down all my friends"? No, guys. He went home and was high-fiving all his friends saying, "What a great job. We kicked her ass.

We made her look like a moron." Okay. So people live in their own little bubbles and as long as you don't pop their bubble, they'll leave you alone, right? They're not watching my YouTube channel like, "Wow, he's got a complete... right, and we should kill him because he's speaking the truth." They're like, "This guy's a... It's a complete joke what he's doing. Why does he have, you know, two million people watching this crap and he's not even a professor for God's sake?" Okay. Right. So that's just human psychology, guys.

Okay. I'm pretty confident they don't care about me and they may know who I am. Well, they have to know who I am, but they're like, "This guy's just making this crap up. He's a grifter, right? The guy's a grifter. Admire the griff, but a complete moron." So then the question you asked is, why do I do this? Because you're absolutely right in that I could monetize my YouTube channel. I could take $100 million in investment and, you know, create a podcast. And the answer is I look at my life and all the things that have happened in my life.

So I grew up in China. I was very poor when I went to Toronto. And in Toronto for over 10 years I was bullied. I was depressed. I was suicidal. I worked really hard and got into Yale. And I was like, "Wow, you know, this world is a great place if you work hard." So I went to Yale and I was traumatized by the place because I didn't fit in. Everyone was rich, and they had their own social networks and no one let me play with them.

I didn't get laid, man. If you're a young guy and you can't get laid, it traumatizes you. I went to China and I did get laid in China, so that's why I stayed, and I was working in education and it was a complete failure, and then I started this YouTube channel and miraculously in, I think, a year I started to get a lot of traction and now I have this global audience. And I'm like, I need to explain to myself why this is happening.

And the answer is God picked me for a special mission. How else can I explain what happened in my life, right? I didn't choose this path. This is a path I got stuck with. I didn't choose to be in China for the past 30 years working in education. I would have been perfectly happy going to law school. I didn't get into law school, guys. I applied three times. Never got into law school. Okay? And then I tried to get a job in Toronto. Didn't work out. Okay. And then I tried to get a girlfriend in Toronto.

Never worked out. All right. So this is not the path I chose myself. It's a path I ended up doing because every other path was closed to me. And so my only explanation is this is my purpose in life. And I knew that I had a purpose in life. And that's why, you know, I never really sold out. I never really did things for money. And now, for a reason, the universe is like, "Okay, your purpose that you've been waiting for, you're now ready for this mission." And quite honestly, I'm so thankful I did not have this audience, this reach, when I was in my 20s, because I'm pretty sure I would have taken $100 million from someone.

Okay. I'm pretty sure. I was like, "Yeah, baby. Give it to me." Okay. Yeah. No, I'm like, "I don't really want it. I don't need it. I have the maturity to know what I want in life. I have a calling. I have a passion and it's to speak the truth." And quite honestly, this is what makes me happy. This is something I really enjoy doing. I enjoy going on podcasts and sharing my knowledge of the world. I enjoy teaching. I enjoy being with you guys and debating the future of humanity.

This is something that I just enjoy doing. It's something that allows me to sleep well at night. If I were working as a corporate lawyer, I wouldn't sleep well at night. I know because I used to work for the United Nations as an official there in Afghanistan and I couldn't sleep at all because I was making six figures. I was making a lot of money, but the people around me were starving, and I knew it was because I was making six figures that they were starving. So this is like blood money and I couldn't really take it.

So I think I have a really deep conscience. I think that I've been really traumatized from my life. So it's really made me think deeply about who I am, what I want and where I'm going in life. And now I have this global reach. And so I'm like, okay, I've been praying for this all my life. Now I just do what I want to do, which is speak the truth. And I don't really care about the consequences. My thinking is they don't care about me because I'm such a... how can someone not... $100 million, right?

But yeah.

Oh wow.

Are you scared that an intelligence... I think you're wonderful. I think that is your purpose. But are you scared that a Chinese intelligence or an American intelligence agency is going to approach you and use you as a mountain?

Yeah, that's a great question. So my wife and I talk about this a lot, right? Because it's only been 6 months since I blew up online. And I've been on Tucker Carlson. And I said to my wife, you know, China doesn't really have that much soft power and China could use me in order to project soft power. So don't you think that there'll be a war committee within the Chinese security apparatus trying to figure out how to co-opt me? And my wife said, "I love my wife and she's always been honest with me, but she's like, "No, honey, because you're an... Okay, you're a pain in the ass to deal with." These guys are, you know, they're like, "How can they use their position to advance their own personal interest, right?

So if they came to you and you were like, "Yeah, let's go make money together," they'd be happy to come approach you. But if you're being an... and say, you know, "Get away from me," why would they bother, right? Why would they pick such a hard path, guys? So you know, these people who are in security services, they're human beings as well. They want a good, easy life. They don't want problems for themselves. And so they approach me and they know I can't really be bought. I don't really have any sins.

I don't have any vices. It's too much of a pain in the ass, right? Usually it's people who volunteer their services to intelligence, right? Because there's a lot of business people who are like, you know, how do I move up in life? Well, I need to go work with the Chinese state. So they find friends who find friends who help them get connected to the Chinese intelligence service and the Chinese intelligence service gives them security protection in order to conduct their business overseas. Right? That's how these things work.

Part 81:10:22

There's no one who works for the CIA or the Ministry of State Security, which is a Chinese CIA, who is like, you know, how do I do a great job for my nation? Okay, I'm sorry to say this, but there's really no one who is like that. Everyone's like, how do I use my position and power to make as much money as possible for myself while doing as little work as possible?

Yes.

I kind of have a follow-up to Gent's question. In terms of, because it sounds like from your lectures that the collapse of civilization is inevitable, and at the same breath I would like to think that you're doing this because you feel like something about it could be changed. I want to know if my interpretation of perhaps maybe you think the world go and the dog, like things like that aren't so far in stone, and I know in your recent podcast you also spoke about that nuclear war won't happen in your lifetime.

So is part of your mission also trying to change some of your predictions, or do you think, what part of your prediction do you think is inevitable and what part is changeable? So, you know, Jesus said it best. The kingdom of heaven is coming. Repent. Okay, that's my message to everyone. When I make these predictions, I'm not saying these are things that I want to happen or I think will happen. I'm saying these are things that are going to happen regardless of what we do. All right?

It doesn't really impact the grand scheme of things. The elite is going to do what the elite is going to do. It doesn't matter if I make these predictions. So remember, I made the Iran prediction two years ago, and in June last year, June 2025, Israel launched a 12-day war and Trump bombed these Iranian nuclear facilities. And that's when I blew up. That's when everyone was watching my video, right? In my video, I was very, very clear. If the United States attacks Iran, the United States will lose.

Iran will close off Hormuz and threaten the global economy, and if the United States sends ground troops, the United States will face another Vietnam. I was very, very clear about this. Okay, I know for a fact that Trump watched my video. Why? Because you know how in my Iran Trump video, I went on for like 10 minutes pretending to be Trump and giving a speech as to why we need to go and attack Iran, right? For democracy, for economic prosperity, because Iran has a nuclear weapon. Okay, I listed all these reasons. And what's really funny is when Trump attacked Iran on February 28th, he did not give a speech.

And my wife said to me it was because he watched your speech. And he was like, "Whatever he says, if he gives a speech, it's going to sound too much like my speech and it would come across looking like a complete moron." Okay? And that's why he didn't give a speech. Okay? I don't know if that's true or not. Okay? But I think he did watch my video. And so I lay out very clearly what not to do and they're like, "Let's go do it, guys." Okay, so my videos have actually, maybe they're good at analyzing events, but they have absolutely no impact in influencing real events, because the elite are going to do what the elite are going to do in order to maintain and promote their best interests.

Okay? So why I'm doing what I'm doing is to reach people like yourselves who, for whatever reason, have questioned the official narrative and who are looking for answers, and that I think is my real impact. So again, as Jesus says, the kingdom of heaven is coming, repent. Civilization is falling, but if during the fall of civilization you're able to activate your divine spark, if you're able to recognize the truth of the universe and find individual happiness and share with other people, then I think that's what matters, and the false civilization doesn't really matter, because a false civilization just means, oh, we cannot fly first class to the Maldives and drink Chardonnay and have oysters and, you know, have avocado from Mexico.

Those things don't matter. The thing that does matter is your intimate connection with the divine as well as the people around you. Okay. Sorry, but let's continue the fireside and then we'll open up the questions. Okay.

Yeah. And speaking the truth is your way to connect to the divine.

Yes, that's right.

Yeah. Professor J's messages are usually very dark, but we have this... all right. All right. All right. Sign right there. So I think that's the message from the universe saying that it's going to be all right.

As long as you're in Austin, Texas.

Yeah. Especially Austin, Texas. Yeah. You guys have picked a good location to be in. Yes. Yes.

All right. Yeah. So one more question about the way you do things. So in previous videos you mentioned that the reason for you being a high school teacher as opposed to being a university professor is that you value intellectual freedom.

So I wonder, what does freedom mean to you? Why does freedom matter?

Yeah. So freedom to me is very simple. It's just the ability to speak whatever I want to speak that matters to me. Okay. I think words really do matter. When you speak something, it does impact reality itself. And that's why I don't lie. I mean, maybe I'll choose to remain silent, but I refuse to lie because when you lie, you corrupt the universe and you corrupt yourself as well, right? The Zoroastrians really believe this. Live the truth. Defy the lie. Okay. Don't live the lie. So I think words really do matter.

Yeah.

Okay. So sorry. Could you repeat the question? I got lost. Yeah.

Oh yeah.

Yeah. The question was simple. What does freedom mean to you?

Okay. Right. Sorry. Yeah. So I found that at Yale I could not speak what I wanted to speak. Why? Because you had to write papers, right? You had to do examinations. And the professor could determine whether or not you passed the class, but the professor could also determine if you went to graduate school. And then when you go to graduate school, the professor could determine if you got a job afterwards and could determine whether or not you could publish, whether you could rise.

Okay? Okay. So you can imagine it's a very feudal system and you have to conform to the expectations of your mentor, the professor. Okay. And then I was like, I don't want to partake in the system because I want to know what the truth is. And these professors are really smart people. They're really nice people. I really get along with them, but they have no real-world experience and they live in a world of books. Okay. So then I became a journalist, thinking, oh, through journalism I can now speak the truth.

No. Okay? Because when you do journalism, you have editors. Your editors select what assignments you can take on and also how you write the essay. So I became very frustrated with the established hierarchy in the world, whether it's academia or publishing or journalism. And I was like, I want to speak the truth as I know it, as I believe it. That's why I chose to work in China as a high school teacher, because quite honestly, the Chinese don't know what you're doing. Okay? They don't really care. And it's in English, so it's not really relevant to their society.

And the kids are stupid. So they believe whatever you say, right? So I picked China because it is so dysfunctional. Okay? And being dysfunctional means, hey, no one can tell me, you shouldn't really teach kids about this sort of stuff, right? You really shouldn't teach kids about secret societies and eschatology and Cabala. Okay. No one in China would do this. And so I was operating in a gray zone. So that's why I chose to work in China as a high school teacher.

[snorts] Yeah.

If I were at Harvard being a professor, I guarantee you I'd be a very different person.

In a bad way.

In a very bad way. Yeah. Yeah.

Okay. Yeah. So let me ask you about education. I myself was a teacher for a couple of years after university. So what does an ideal school look like to you? I know you have been...

Yeah. So in order to raise kids for the future that we have discussed, that you lectured about, yeah, how would you prepare kids, and if you have a school of your own, what does it look like? Okay. So imagine every day the adults, the parents, are together and we're discussing the occult. We're discussing geopolitics. We're discussing whatever it takes to understand what's going on. We as adults are in a passionate pursuit of the truth and meaning in life. Okay? And the kids are just running around by themselves, playing, doing what they want.

Part 91:20:37

Not on the iPad, okay? But maybe swimming or whatever. Okay. That to me would be the ideal school, because that is the environment in which kids learn the most, right? Because as adults we're role models for kids. They're going to pick up our habits of mind and work. And if we as adults are first and foremost focused on pursuing the truth, they themselves will do so. But they need to want to do it when they're ready. And when they're ready their capacity to learn is just incredible.

Okay. When they're really motivated and they really want to learn, they learn so fast. So the problem with our school system is first of all it's a cookie cutter system that treats children as products to be manufactured on an assembly line. They want every kid to be the same and if you're not the same then you should be on Adderall or whatever. Okay. But you're clearly a problem. You clearly have psychological issues. The school destroys children's innate capacity to learn. Okay. Children love learning.

They might not like learning calculus but they like learning how the world works. They like learning how we think. They like learning real skills. Okay. And the third thing that's really annoying about schools is it indoctrinates children into a very materialistic worldview, right? So it teaches evolution. It teaches the Big Bang, but it doesn't teach the occult. It doesn't teach spirituality. It doesn't teach... And you know, children are divine consciousness. They are the most intimately connected with the source, with the monad. So the point of school is to almost lobotomize children.

Okay? It is almost to destroy the connection with the truth, with the source. And that's why there's so much psychological anxiety in schools today. And that's why children are so overly medicated, because they know they're being lied to. They know they're being tortured. And that's why the children who perform the best are themselves psychologically scarred. So I mean I know many people who went to the Ivy League and they're not happy people. In fact I would say they are some of the most depressed people you'll ever meet.

And so I think that what I would like to see happen is, you know, if you're a parent you prioritize your children and you help your children seek his or her own truth, and that's what I think a school should be about.

Could you please give us a very rough map of how a school would look like, the ideal school? Well, I mean, imagine a campus, right? And it's the adults, the teachers, who are learning and the children are learning beside the adults, right? Does that make sense? It's not a structured learning environment. You don't go to class, but the teachers are working on projects and the students are on these projects, right? So let's sort of visualize. Okay, imagine a school that is first and foremost a self-sufficient community.

It could be a ranch, it could be a farm, but the adults are getting up at like 4:00 in the morning, you know, feeding the pigs, milking the cows, helping goats give birth, and the kids are there doing this. Okay. So they have an intimate connection with nature and with community, and education is first and foremost about helping the self-sufficient community be much more resilient, be much more prosperous. So it means learning, you know, game theory and geopolitics, but it also means learning the occult, because when you actually deal with nature, when you actually deal with a horse or you talk to a plant, you're actually amazed by how vibrant and alive everything is. Okay, there is a consciousness within that horse. Okay, polo players know this and I'm sure you guys ride horses, but a horse can read your mind. Have you ever asked yourself how horses can do that?

And if you talk to plants, plants do respond. So I think you have to be out in nature and the people have to be working together in order to create a better life for themselves and for nature, and that's the very basis for education.

Let me ask you about American society. In America, Gen Z will be the last generation with the white majority. The white population will no longer be the majority by 2045.

And with regards to this fact, I also captured something from your previous conversation, which happened about a couple of months ago on YouTube. You mentioned that Canada is a pretty racist country and that if you're an immigrant you will never be accepted as one of them even if you're a doctor, lawyer. So what do you make of that?

I know this is going to sound very strange but immigration is usually not a good thing. All right. So I understand, yes, you want the best and brightest to come to your country and you want to give refuge to those who are most desperate, and, you know, I'm thankful for Canada for letting my family immigrate to Canada because back in China we were very, very poor. But I don't really understand the concept of immigration because when you're born you're born into a community and this community gives you purpose, structure and meaning.

You want to do better. You want to work hard to build a stronger community. This community itself wants to be cohesive and wants to, you know, be vibrant. But if you create a situation where the best and brightest can just leave a community and go somewhere else, this doesn't really make much sense, right? So look at the western world for the past 50 years, it has been extremely just paradise for a lot of people, especially if you're white and middle class. But have you asked yourself how this could happen?

How is it possible for the United States, Europe, Canada to be so prosperous? And the answer is because the third world is such holes. Okay. The reality is that a place like Canada makes a lot of money through money laundering. Its banks basically just engage in money laundering. So if you're a corrupt dictator in Africa, well, you send your children and your money to Canada to be washed, and your children can buy great houses and go to great schools. But if Canada did not do this, there would be no corruption in Africa, right?

If you think about it, why is there corruption in Africa? I know as a dictator I could steal this money and then transfer it to Canada, the City of London, Washington, who cares, for safekeeping. If these places did not exist and I was corrupt, first of all, I would have no place to put my money, but I'm pretty sure that people could come and kill me. Now, who cares, because I can always get on a plane and fly off somewhere else and enjoy my winnings in Dubai or Hong Kong or Singapore.

Okay. So the fact that you have transnational capital allows for the destruction of communities around the world, especially in the third world, South America, East Asia, India, Africa, these places. Okay. So immigration is part and parcel of the free flow of capital, of transnational capitalism. So I think that immigration ultimately destroys communities, and I mean I'm sure there are really strong arguments for immigration and people will call me a hypocrite because I benefit from immigration, but I think logically speaking, objectively speaking, I think that immigration has been a negative for most societies, especially those societies in the third world, in the developing nations.

Part 101:30:21

Okay. Let me ask you one more question and then we can move on to the Q&A.

About meritocracy.

You have nuanced views on meritocracy, and so let me play the devil's advocate. In your view, is it wrong to strive for greatness? Is it wrong to dedicate oneself to achievements?

Okay, so these are two different things. Okay, you're talking about the meritocracy, you're talking about striving for greatness, right? These two things are actually not aligned. Okay, so the meritocracy is really about gatekeeping. It's really about who wins and who loses in society. Basically, if you are able to go to Yale or Harvard, you win. If you don't, then you lose. Okay? But striving for greatness is a different thing. Striving for greatness is something that is innate in most of us. And we should be allowed to strive for greatness regardless of our social demographic background.

The reality is if you go to a place like Yale and Harvard, it was already destined from the moment they're born whether or not they will go to this place. The wealth inequality at a place like Yale and Harvard is just obscene, especially today. I got very lucky and I got into Yale, but I am not representative in any way of the demographic who goes to Yale and Harvard. It is primarily people who are born very rich and who are born in certain cities like New York, San Francisco, LA and who are able to access the best kindergartens, the best private schools, and who have a certain social cachet to them.

They have a certain way of speaking. They have a certain way of looking at the world. Okay. So Yale and Harvard, it's not a meritocracy. It's not about finding the best and brightest and allowing them to strive for greatness. It's a self-replicating machine that rewards a certain outlook and a certain worldview. If you are white and brilliant and you're from Tennessee, guess what? You're not getting into Yale. Okay. All right. Sorry, you're brilliant, but hey, you're white and you're from Tennessee, right? So I don't think the meritocracy is a fair and open place.

I think it is a very regimented place that gatekeeps and rewards a certain type of person striving for greatness. If you really want people to strive for greatness, you would actually burn down the meritocracy, right? Did Abraham Lincoln go to Yale? No. Did George Washington go to Yale? No. In fact, if you look at some of the most brilliant people in America today, who went to Yale and Harvard? Can someone name someone that you know, that you read and you listen to, and he or she went to Yale or Harvard?

There are a lot of politicians who went to Yale and Harvard, especially Yale Law School, Harvard Law School. There are a lot of powerful people who went to Yale and Harvard. But if you're talking about just brilliant, I don't think Yale or Harvard produces brilliant intellectuals. I just don't think so. I'm an accident of history, right? But yeah, no, I mean there are lots of people I listen to and I think they're brilliant. I was on Theo Von's show in Los Angeles two weeks ago and I think he's a really smart guy.

He comes across as bumbling and stupid, but you actually talk to him, you have a conversation with him, he gets a lot of things. Whereas I have lots of friends who went to Harvard and it is impossible to talk to them about certain issues, right? If you're talking about Trump, you say, "Well, you know, this guy has a messiah complex," they don't get it. They're like, "No, the guy's a moron." Okay? I think that people who went to the most elite schools tend to see things in the most simplistic terms.

Whereas I think that people who didn't go to the very best schools, people like Joe Rogan who are self-taught, they're the most open-minded and they're the most curious and therefore they are I think the most intellectual. So these two things are not the same thing. Okay. The meritocracy and striving for greatness.

Okay. Thank you so much.

Okay. So we'll open up to questions and maybe pass the microphone around so we can get you. Okay. Great. Thank you so much. Yes. Okay. So we'll open up to questions. So you're going to ask for anything. Okay.

Maybe you can help me pick, you know. Yeah.

Okay. All right.

So you're saying that, you know, AI is going to take over money, and we know money is the motivator in capitalism. Capitalism for work, for energy. How is AI going to incentivize people to go to work, do jobs, things like that? What is your take on that?

Right. So the system that they want to create we can refer to as techno-Marxism. Okay. So think of Marxism but with a lot of technology to control it. And if you think about it, the Chinese and the Soviets worked really hard. There was no money but they worked really, really hard. So what motivated them? What motivated them was an eschatological vision that if we work hard for the next 20 years we're going to achieve paradise. Right. And also just propaganda, and also the fact that their nations were destroyed.

So the Soviet Union was destroyed in World War II. China was destroyed in a civil war and a sense of humiliation. Okay. So imagine a scenario where the United States has a civil war and most of the country is burned out and people are desperate and they want to believe in a higher good, and so these technology companies create this AI god and convince people, if we just work hard for the next 20 years, not only can we rebuild America but we'll achieve paradise. We'll never have to work hard again because AI will then build robots that will allow us to live in leisure.

Right? This is techno-Marxism. That's what Karl Marx taught us, right? We'll work hard for 20 years and then we'll achieve utopia.

So part of that mission is essentially burning down a marathon to rebuild.

It's required. Yes. Yes. Yes. Because otherwise people aren't going to buy this. Right. Right. So you look at something like the metaverse, right? The metaverse is a very important part of this grand eschatology, but people aren't going to go on the metaverse because it's complete crap. Right. So what you do is you burn it down and you don't give people the option.

Can we pass some mic over here?

Professor Jiang, thank you for touring.

Gives us a chance to see you and talk to you. So you talk about how the Western Hemisphere, the United States, is still better off than the rest of the world in the coming collapse. And also you mentioned Texas within the United States, and what else can we do to face this collapse? You talk about connection with God, family, you know, building relationships. What else can we do?

Right, so I think that what's going to happen is we are moving towards the age of prophets, okay? So maybe for the past 40 years we lived in the age of entrepreneurs, people like Steve Jobs, right? Well, in the coming age of the prophet, someone like Steve Jobs would not be an entrepreneur, he would become a prophet. He would be someone who tries to galvanize a community, who tries to speak certain truths that attract a lot of people, and he would try to build communities. So I think that is the future.

Rather than focus on making as much money as possible, focus on trying to create as strong a community as possible, one that is resilient, that is open, that is vibrant. That's something that I'm working on right now. In fact, I joke about this, but I'm not really joking, I want to build a university for prophets, right? You know how there are universities for entrepreneurs? I want to build a university for prophets. So they come and they learn about their code. They come and learn about the great books, about game theory, and then they become energized to go around the world and start their own communities, right?

Yep. Can we pass the mic around please?

Okay. Yeah. Yeah. So...

At one point in one of your lectures I recall that you had mentioned the currency of attention in a sense as opposed to necessarily just the currency of AI. I think of this as quite interesting relative to money to AI. AI necessitates attention of the person, whether it's via Neuralink or at the moment with ChatGPT like you've mentioned tonight. I'm very curious with respect to that how you see the current landscape of attention, especially considering TikTok and Instagram and all these other mechanisms for essentially stealing attention for very long periods of time and optimizing to do so.

So I think social media, especially Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, are the worst things to ever happen to the world, because what they do that was not possible before was they monopolized your attention. Okay. So before you had film, right? And film was, you know, movies, cinema, and that marked a revolutionary concept in human affairs. But the thing is that you can only go watch a movie for like two hours at most. And back then it was maybe an hour, right? And so it was a form of escapism.

Part 111:40:32

With social media, you can be on the thing every waking hour. And then your attention is monopolized. And why this is important is your humanity derives from your attention. Okay? From your consciousness. So if you were just left alone and you just walked in the park for eight hours, what would happen is your mind would roam the universe, right? You would have ideas, you would be inspired and you would come up with a better understanding of the universe and you would have a stronger connection with the monad.

I'm not sure if you guys do this, but if you walk for eight hours a day, sorry, if you walked just for two hours a day for your entire life, you'd be a much more creative person than if you spent two hours on social media. That's pretty obvious, right? So social media has cheapened what it means to be human and it's deprived people of their capacity to be human, especially young children. Why is it that we have this overwhelming social science research that says that social media is really bad for kids, guys?

Okay. It causes girls to be more depressed. It causes them to be suicidal. It destroys their attention span. But we do nothing about it. Why? Because it's so profitable to control people's attention. So attention is the source of wealth. Because attention is really our divine connection to the universal consciousness. And so social media is the worst thing that could happen to us. And the greatest action we could take is to reclaim our attention, to get off social media and go for long walks in the park, to read a book, to talk to a friend, to have conversations like this.

Okay. So the greatest act you can have is to say, I'm a human person. I have control over my consciousness. I'm a divine being that has connection to God. And if I just focus on meditating, if I just focus on learning, then my consciousness expands throughout the universe. I become a better person because of it.

So, what are your... Oh, sorry.

Yeah. Go ahead. What are your thoughts on, obviously AI is reshaping psychology, just how people think, even the language that we speak. It's specifically when we get into paid programs shifting our relationship to fiat currency, because everything is tokenized and people don't typically understand, the companies keep it very kind of cloak and dagger, how much compute equals $1, and so people are starting to spend more and more money to get this kind of different level of compute. What do you think that does to our psychology about how we relate to fiat currency and then the overall picture of what's happening?

Yeah, that's a great question. Okay, so let me rephrase the question. Okay, so what does digital currency mean for our understanding of ourselves, of our relationship with money and with the greater world? That's a great idea because remember, the power means capturing your attention, and when money is a physical object your connection is with the money. Okay. But now that currency is just digits, your connection is not with the money but with your iPhone basically, right? And that's a very different relationship because what the iPhone can do is basically absorb your attention and control your attention.

Right? Think about what your iPhone is doing all the time. It's tracking where you move and it's tracking what you do online. It's tracking who you communicate with. Okay. So it's trying to create a personal profile of who you are. Okay. So the money is just a means of exchange. But if you use digital currency, if you use iPhone, Apple Pay, then what you're doing is you're almost counterfeiting your identity onto the phone and that causes you to become reliant on this technology. If that makes any sense.

I'm also meaning things like ChatGPT. So it's maybe, or Claude. So it's $100 and it'll do this many things and there's not an actual gauge to know what you're getting for that $100, how many questions it's going to answer, what it will do. And then the programs change and it feels to me like it's eroding our understanding of, like, right now we can say, well, it's, you know, a dollar for this bottle of water, but we're starting to phase away from being able to relate that to AI compute.

Yeah. So what people don't appreciate is these large language models, what they're doing is not trying to give you information. What they're trying to do is figure out your mentality so they can customize information in a way that convinces you, that persuades you. Okay. It's really trying to counterfeit how your mind works and it's been very effective in that regard. Yep. Okay. Can we pass the mic around? Yeah.

So thank you very much for coming. I really appreciate the conversation. Can you kind of enumerate your thought process when it comes to the elite and their, it seems like they have this occult version of how they approach their machinations, because the occult seems to be very interesting and it's sort of a disconnect, or maybe it's a part of the spectrum of the relationship with the divine, or at least their version of it.

Okay. So could you rephrase the question in a much more simple...

Can you go down to the occult? Kind of explain your thoughts on the occult and how it relates to the elite.

Right. So the occult is trying to explain how the universe works. It's trying to explain the soul of the universe, because something that all occultists understand is the universe is mind which creates matter. Okay? Right? And this goes against our intuition or what we're taught in school, which is that matter creates mind. They call us to understand that it's mind that creates... Okay. So why are we taught that matter controls mind? And it's because the occultists, the secret societies, appreciate that if mind is what matters, then the way that you have power is by controlling people's minds.

And you do that by giving them a focus on matter. Okay? So the secret societies focus on the occult, on the universe as mental, because that's what allows them to access truth. That allows them to predict events. That allows them to control events. But in order for them to extract labor from us, in order for them to extract energy from us, they need us to believe the inverse, right? They need us to focus on the here and now, on matter, on money, right? So the occult uses money as a mechanism in order to extract energy, consciousness and attention from you so that they can be the elite.

Right? And this is the same pattern from all societies across all of time. Okay. Every culture practices this, where the elite understands the occult and they worship deities in order to expand their influence and power, and they enslave everyone else by convincing the people that the world is fundamentally materialistic. There is no god and when we die we just die.

Professor, first of all I agree with you. I think Texas is going to be sort of the new epicenter of sort of a new free world in America. I was just curious along those lines, I feel like we need a whole bunch of, you know, new power structures to arise among the people, and I wonder if you've heard of Cordal, which is a new internet that's up and coming. Some gentlemen are building a decentralized mesh network, excuse me, and I believe it's kind of the future. People can put their content on there and get paid in this cryptocurrency that comes with the new internet, basically at their leisure, whenever anybody can send them cryptocurrency on...

So technology is predicated on globalization, global supply chains. Okay. So you look at semiconductors, well, if you look at who produces semiconductors you find there are like hundreds of companies scattered throughout the world. Okay. So maybe in California you have Nvidia designing the chips. Then the chip design goes to Taiwan to be manufactured. Then it goes to the Philippines to be value added. Then it goes to China to be assembled into appliances. Meanwhile you have, you know, South America, Africa providing rare earths and lithium, copper, silver that goes into semiconductors.

Part 121:50:12

You have European companies like ASML manufacturing the machines to actually make the semiconductors. Okay, so it's a global supply chain. So technology is impossible without a global supply chain network. You will not find a place that is simply self-sufficient in technology. All right, so the idea that, okay, maybe robots will replace us, that's just absurd, because it's really expensive to produce a robot, but it's cheap to produce a human being, and then what you can do is microchip that human being and turn that human into a robot, right?

You could from scratch try to manufacture a robot, but you would need a global supply chain, which is hard in a time of war. Or you could take, you know, millions of young Indians or young Africans and then microchip them. So that I think is really the future, and the idea that you have this internet that will resolve a lot of issues, it doesn't really work because you have to solve the hardware issue. The hardware issue, you need a global supply chain.

PredictionIn the future, young Indians or Africans will be microchipped and turned into human robots rather than robots replacing humans.Unresolvable

Sorry, I'm afraid I don't track that idea. Yeah, of course you're always going to need hardware, you know, for your software to run on and to be connected with and so on and so forth.

But a decentralized mesh network, you know, that's across the world, where the internet is running on the nodes, the individual nodes of a... I don't see the direct connection between the supply chain and so on.

What if Iran were to cut the internet cables in Hormuz?

What would happen then?

They would rely on our friends and family. They're just right here.

No, no, no, no. I'm saying what would happen to the internet if Iran were to cut off all the internet cables in the Strait of Hormuz that supply a third of the world with, like, banking services, digital banking... Unfortunately, I'm not a techie, but I'm not certain that that would actually cut off the mesh network that's running across all these computers throughout the United States.

Okay. Well, we debate this, but I think, you know, software, you need hardware. The hardware, you need a global supply chain. So it is possible to, okay, have backups, but at the same time you have to maintain them, you have to repair them, and you need critical minerals from around the world. Okay. All right. Let's continue. Professor Jiang, sorry, I have two quick questions. My first one is in terms of modern books. Is there a particular book that you think encapsulates your belief in the Gnostic monad pretty well?

There was a book I read 10 years ago that when you started talking I was like, oh my god, this really relates. It's called Conversations with God. So I'm just curious if you had any suggestions aside from the Bible or just, you know, the Quran or whatever people practice, what do you suggest, if there's anything?

So I'm not sure of any modern works, but I think the issue is I read a lot of novels when I was younger, and it's been only the past 2 years since I became fascinated with the monad and I really believe in God. So for most of my adult life I was an atheist and I read novels through the lens of atheism. But I think that if I were to go back and read a lot of modern novels then I would see an occult spiritual element to these novels.

And one book that comes to mind is maybe The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy in India.

What was it again?

The God of Small Things.

The God of Small Things. Yeah.

Okay. Thank you. And then my last question is on Hasan Piker's interview. You had mentioned, or I guess the conversation of visiting the rabbi's grave came up and then Hasan brought up, you know, that Zohran had visited the grave site and your reaction was really like you were super shocked. Jimmy Dore recently, or not recently, like a couple weeks ago, he had mentioned that Zohran's wife was supporting Syrian people that overthrew the Syrian government. So do you think that, you know, Zohran and these people might be somewhat the new Bernie Sanders, or people that, because all this energy of change needs to go somewhere, right?

So then do you think that this is just not a new group of people where people are getting hoodwinked, so to speak, and, you know, it's not really what they appear to be.

Okay, so I think this is a really good question. It's very complicated because you look at really successful people and they're able to operate in many different dimensions and they appear like different people to different people. Okay. So another saying, if you're a politician you need to be a cipher. You need to be a blank so that other people can impose their fences onto you. Right? So maybe if we're leftist and we see Mamdani we think, okay, this guy shares our perspective, but if you are maybe religious and you're Islamic then you're like, well, he shares our perspective as well.

So they're very successful people. They're able to operate at the intersection of many different groups. Okay? And as a result, these people are first and foremost... Okay? They are not concerned about ideology. They're not concerned about achieving a certain vision. They're opportunistic. So they will shift according to the political winds. So I cannot tell you that Mamdani will do this. It depends on what happens in New York City over the next few years. It depends on what his political ambitions are. He wants to climb as high as he can. And for Mamdani, that could basically mean senator from New York or governor of New York State.

He can't be president because he wasn't born here. But he wants to climb as high as he can. That means trying to appeal to as many different factions as possible. That's why it's almost impossible to pigeonhole his ideology, because he doesn't have any ideology. He's opportunistic. Okay? He's a speculator. And I would say that's true the same for any politician. And Trump is of course the archetype of a good politician because he's able to shift all the time, and he's able to align himself with different factions according to his different needs.

Okay.

All right. Yes.

My name is Mark. This is Sarah, my wife, and I are both psychologists here and we also work in Austin in the psychedelic underground to help people awaken and heal. And I was just curious, you know, over the next 30 years, we were contemplating becoming dual citizens in Canada and bringing our daughter up there just to have the ability to move back and forth depending on what's going on. But I was just curious if you had a way for us to kind of stay out of the fight and still help people awaken and heal and also to have our daughter be in a place that's safeish, as safe as safe gets.

I think you should move to Japan. And I'll tell you why. Okay, Japan has a huge problem. It's an aging crisis. So a lot of their population is elderly and, you know, I'm not sure if you've been to Japan, but if you've been to Japan, you will know the place is really, really clean, people are really, really healthy and therefore these people will live for a very long time. I mean right now Japan has the most elderly population in the world and a lot of them will live to 100 years.

This is a problem because Japan doesn't have the resources to support this aging population. So you need to convince them to kill themselves.

Right? And yeah, I hate to say this, okay, but you need to convince them to kill themselves. And the best way to get them to kill themselves is if they were to do psychedelics, right? That's the solution. I'm serious, guys. Okay? So you've got millions of, you know, Japanese people in their 90s who refuse to die because they're afraid of death. So what you do is you get them to do psychedelics, right? And what they recognize is, wow, death is just the beginning, and I don't have to suffer in my, you know, old body.

I can ascend to a higher plane and spread my consciousness throughout the universe. So would I rather just suffer another 10, 20 years in my old decrepit body, living this miserable life, or do I just, you know, die right now and then move to a higher plane and experience the universe for all its madness. Okay. So my advice is Japan. Okay.

Yeah. You think I'm joking but I'm not joking. Okay.

Yes. Who's next?

Hello, Professor Jiang. Thank you for coming to Austin. It's truly beautiful out here. As you know, you mentioned the global, you know, supply chains being interrupted and the impending, I guess, energy crisis we have, you know, upon us. I want to kind of get your view on how the manipulation is going on in the energy markets and then how does that impact the economic collapse that we have impending upon us and how can we survive from that and kind of, you know, play it out.

Part 132:00:22

Yeah, that's a great question. So it is clear they are manipulating the energy markets. It is clear that the crisis is much greater than we can imagine. Okay. We are going to very soon experience very high gas prices, but also you'll have famine, starvation in Africa. You'll have energy wars all around the world. So they are trying to hide it as much as possible but they can't defy reality and sooner or later you're going to have huge problems throughout the world. So how the energy prices are being manipulated, there are many different things they do. One thing that they do is they use US treasuries, and I'm talking about Scott Bessent and the Treasury Department.

PredictionVery high gas prices, famine and energy wars will hit the world soon as a third of world energy is cut off by the Iran war.Open

They're using US treasuries and US capital in order to give people the impression that the stock market's under control. Okay. And I'm not a financial trader. I don't know how they do so. But clearly there is financial injection by the US government to keep oil prices low. The other thing that's happening is the United States and China have an agreement where China has agreed to reduce demand on its part, and that's what's actually keeping energy prices very low, because China has cut off 50% of its imports.

And a lot of it is just an agreement between the United States and China. But as you can appreciate, all of this is just short-term fixes. It doesn't really resolve the long-term problem of 25%, a third, of the world's energy having been cut off from the world. And not only that, but there are byproducts of energy that are very important for the global economy. They include fertilizers, right? You need fertilizers to grow food. So the real-world impact has not been felt yet, but we will feel it very, very soon and there's really no way to get around it.

Again, you guys are lucky to be in Texas because Texas is essentially self-sufficient, right? You grow your own food and you have your own energy. So you guys will probably weather the storm better than other people. But if you're in California or New York City, you're kind of screwed. Inflation is going to go way up. They're going to have to basically destroy the demand. Okay. Like stop flights around the world, you know. And it's also possible, and they've been talking about this, there might be blackouts next year for a long, long time.

PredictionUS inflation will go way up due to the energy and supply chain crisis.OpenPredictionThere may be extended blackouts in the US next year as a controlled implosion of energy demand.Open

And a lot of these blackouts will be a controlled implosion of energy demand, because right now the United States cannot sustain all this energy demand. Okay? You can't have people with air conditioners cracked up all the time, driving their SUVs, flying all around the world. Okay? The United States doesn't have the energy supply, and so it needs to destroy demand. Okay. All right. Who's next?

Hey, professor. I wanted to zoom out of America a little bit and pick your brain on Pax Judaica. So obviously Israel is bombing several different countries, obviously, you know, killing children in Palestine directly or indirectly, Iran, Lebanon, Syria, but now they've, you know, recently come out and they're provoking Turkey.

And just alluding to that video that you referenced with Rabbi Schneerson, when Rabbi Schneerson was talking to Benjamin Netanyahu, you could almost see Netanyahu's face change as he mentioned the Messiah and he's like, come on man, hurry up. So my question is, don't you see the Middle East going into all-out warfare fairly quickly?

Yeah. No, I completely agree. You know, I've talked about this a lot on podcasts. So I just did an interview with Danny Jones and we go into four hours about this. Okay, so it comes out tomorrow. You should definitely check it out. Okay, but I explain the entire plan and you're actually right in that the entire purpose of this war in the Middle East is to force the coming of the Messiah. Okay, and this plan has been around for 100 years, 200 years.

And so it is impossible to understand this war from a geopolitical lens because it makes no sense. Why would you attack Iran for no reason? Why would you collapse the global economy like this? But if you look at it from an eschatological lens, this is a war to force a war of Magog which will bring about the end times. Then a lot makes a lot more sense. And unfortunately these are the people in power today. Okay. All right.

PredictionThe Iran war is intended to force the war of Gog and Magog in the Middle East and bring about the end times; he agrees the Middle East is heading to all-out warfare.Unresolvable

Thank you professor. I'm just curious what spiritual practices, study or experiences have had the largest impact on your paradigm?

Being with children. I have three young kids and being with children, it's really reshaped the way I see the world, because before having children, I just thought that your children are blank slates. So if you just do certain things then your children will turn out the way that you want them to turn out. And when you actually have children you recognize that each child has a distinct personality, and from the moment he or she is born, the moment that he or she leaves the womb, he or she already has their own personality, has his own worldview, has his own telos, purpose in life, and no matter what you do you can't actually change that kid's personality. And it's been a struggle these past eight years because for the longest time I was really wedded to the idea that, you know, through my own practice, through my own habits of mind and work, I can influence a child for the better, and the answer is you cannot, okay. But once you let go of that mindset, I need to manipulate my child so that he or she can triumph in the meritocracy, you focus on loving a child for who or who who...

He or she is, and who he or she is is a gift from God. Okay? A child is a gift from God and he or she is here to be with you for a set number of years but he or she is going to leave you and live his or her own life sooner or later. And what you should do is appreciate all the time you can have with your child. So being with children has really animated my understanding of God and the purpose of God and his or her intentions, and it's made me a better... So I think now that I look back on everything, I think the purpose of our life here is to have a family, because once you have a family, that really brings you closer to God.

Okay.

Well, Professor Jiang, welcome to Texas. I had a question in response to your Dante series and your civilization series. Y I take it from that that you believe that there will be a next Dante, that that's also part of the cycles.

Sometimes it just comes from above, and that inspiration, that message, could potentially be coming. Do you think that there is a degree of wisdom that needs to come down from some sort of, like you said, the coming age of prophets, right? That there needs to be someone who's divinely inspired and they will have a message that could possibly avert humanity from your worst predictions, like you've been mentioning, almost near total extinction and just a complete reversal of everything we know.

So what do you think about that?

Okay, so first of all I think that what's coming is part of the plan. Okay. Yes, a lot of people are going to die. There'll be a lot of suffering. We'll become much more impoverished than we used to be. But really, if you think about it, the purpose of our existence is to raise our consciousness. And unfortunately, you cannot have wisdom without suffering. You cannot raise your consciousness unless you hit rock bottom. Okay? And that's the story of my life. So I discovered a lot through life but I'm grateful for all the suffering because it's led me to wisdom.

PredictionHumanity will undergo mass death and suffering over the next 20-30 years (earlier stated as a roughly 90% population decline over 50 years).Open

It's led me to enlightenment. It's led me to God. So I feel as though what's coming is very optimistic because this is really the spiritual awakening of humanity. So I think that rather than think, okay, a prophet's going to come, I think rather all the pieces are already in place, all the material you need for your own spiritual awakening is already in place. You can read the Bible, you can read Jesus, you can read Plato, you can read Homer, you can read Dante, all that is out there for your own individual enlightenment, but you need to want it, and unfortunately for you to want it you need to suffer through life. And so I think the next 20, 30 years, yes, it does mean material suffering, but it will also mean a divine awakening.

Part 142:10:31

Okay. Yep.

Yes. So, professor, one of your predictions about the population trend over the next 50 years, I think it's quite dark, like a 90% decrease. My question number one is, do you have an updated number, and how are you preparing your family and especially your children to face that dark reality?

Yeah. So as I study the occult more and more, as I deepen my knowledge, what I recognize is you should always trust God and you should always trust yourself. So many people will be like, if you know that all that's going to happen is human suffering for the next 50 years and 90% of humanity will be wiped out, why do you choose to have children? And my answer is, well, first of all our own destiny is what we make of it. All right. So just because most people will die doesn't mean you will have to die.

It's really your choice whether or not you die. That's the first thing. Second thing is having children is really a leap of faith, and it's an act of faith. It's a belief in God and you're making the world a better place each time you have a leap of faith, each time you have your trust in God. So the world isn't something that you could plan out and say, "Well, I know that the world is going to collapse and 90% of humanity will die out and so I need to build a bunker.

So I need to go make $10 million and then get a bunker and I need to become best friends with Peter Thiel and that'll save me." No, no, no. That's not how it works. Okay? You don't plan it out. What you say is, I know what is true, and what I know is true is God exists and God loves us and everything happens for a purpose. What I also know is true is that to be a good person is more important than to be a wealthy person. Right?

So if I'm having children and I teach them to be good people, if I myself am a good person, and the one thing that I can do that would set a good example for my children is if I always speak the truth and I fight hard to speak the truth, that's enough. Then I can place my faith in God. Then I can place my faith in the universe because, you know, having read Dante, having read Homer, God does exist and God does have a plan. And so if you act in a good way, then God will take care of the rest.

Okay? And again, I can't explain it. I'd be like, "Well, you know, aren't you better off with $50 million?" I'm like, "No, I'm actually better off just speaking the..." Okay? Yep.

Thank you, Professor Jiang. It's an honor to meet you. I found myself in an interesting situation last night on Sixth Street downtown, 6th Avenue. There was a person there holding a sign that said Jesus saves. And it was really a chaotic situation. There's really a lot of odd people there. I took the opportunity to ask him. I was wondering had he ever heard of the monad, and he had never heard of it before. I had never heard of it. I went to Catholic school and later became atheist, agnostic. I didn't know what I was and came back to more of an understanding of Christ as a person and a prophet.

But is there an opportunity that a portion of the Catholic population could be introduced to this? And I mean maybe in a best case scenario, it's a monad nationalistic surveillance state, and not a strict Jesus one that we have today with these people who don't really know what it is. And if that were the case, would that be the defeat of the monad? But it's a kind of a loaded question. I don't know if it's...

Could we go that way and win?

And then just as a topper to that, was Jesus aware of the allegory of Plato's cave and the monad?

Yeah. So I think Jesus was very much aware of the idea even though he himself may not have read Plato. Okay. So I think Jesus was first and foremost a poet. So if you want to understand Jesus, read his words. Okay. So it's really interesting because, you know, Jesus is really the only major religious figure where we actually have his words, right? We don't have the words of Buddha. We don't have the words of Muhammad. We don't have the words of... yeah, no, Jesus is the only one. I mean, can someone else think of another major religious figure where we have his...

Do we have his...

Don't we have the word from...

I don't think so. Do we?

Book me...

It's a fictional book.

By Herman Hesse, right?

But we don't actually have what he actually said, but we do have...

Can argue anything about Jesus.

No, no, no, no. Those words were spoken by Jesus.

The Gospel of Thomas and the Gospel of Judas are more about Jesus than, or just as much. Let's...

So if you look at the Gospel of Thomas, a lot of his quotations do appear in the other gospels, right? The Gospel of Matthew, the Gospel of Mark. So what I'm trying to say is this. Jesus was a religious leader. He was a son of God. It doesn't matter. Okay. He was first and foremost a poet. And the thing about poets is they speak the truth in a way that becomes music in your ear so that you never forget it. And this music, first of all you can't forget it, but you can also speak it to other people and it becomes almost like a virus.

Okay? It's like a mind virus. And that's why they were able to cleanse or wipe out the teachings of Muhammad and Buddha, but they were not able to wipe out the teachings of Jesus because of his poetry. Right? So if you want to know who Jesus is, don't just read what he spoke, his poetry, and it includes, you know, the Gospel of Thomas but also includes the Sermon on the Mount. Okay, that's pure poetry. If you actually know the Aramaic, the original Aramaic, then you know it's beautiful music, it's poetry.

So he was like Dante and Homer in that way. And what is important is if we are able to convince everyone to just recite the teachings of Jesus then that gives them access to the monad. Okay. That's why Jesus spoke out the truth, because he wanted people to hear, right? He says, listen, those who want to hear, and once you hear then you're able to feel the monad, you're able to feel the source. Once you speak out these words then you're able to communicate with the monad. That's how I feel when I read the Divine Comedy, you know, when I actually teach the Divine Comedy and I feel an intimate connection with the monad. Okay, so I'm a huge fan of Jesus even though I myself am not... Jesus was not a Christian, guys.

Okay? If Jesus were to come today, he'd be like, "What is this crowd? This is not what I wanted, man." All right. But he wanted us to read his poetry. So I think, you know, everyone should read the Gospel of Thomas. I think everyone should read the Gospel of Mark. Yeah.

If I could add to that real quickly, I believe her name is Sarah Ruden. She does ancient Greek and she translated, she did a book called the...

Yeah. And so it's really, you can read it in the way that it was spoken in...

The apostles wrote it and I have really...

It's music.

Yes. I've really enjoyed going through and reading that. And then there are words in Aramaic that don't translate to...

She leaves those in there so you can see what's going on. Yeah.

You'd really enjoy it. I think anybody that wants to...

Dive in. It's called The Gospels. I believe it's by Sarah Ruden. She's a Greek scholar.

R-U-D-I-N. R-U-D-E-N, I think.

Right, she's a Greek scholar and she did a beautiful job translating.

Is a prophet.

Yes, absolutely he was a prophet. Okay, all of them were prophets, all of them were messengers of God. Okay, that includes Dante, Homer, Plato, Jesus, Muhammad.

Zoroaster as well. Okay, any major religious figure was a poet and also a messenger of God. So I think everyone's hungry, so maybe three more questions, then we'll break. Okay.

All right. First, thank you for being here. I wanted to bring up the fake alien invasion again because it's been a...

And I just wanted to know if that's still in the works for the end of the world or any updated thoughts.

Part 152:20:03

Yeah, I think it's going to happen, guys. I think there are a lot of signs that suggest disclosure is coming. I think there will be a faked alien invasion. You know, Tim Dillon talks about it. You know, guys, I can't say enough nice things about Tim Dillon, okay? I mean, he's a man who could be best friends with Peter Thiel. He's a man who could have to ease his life and instead he's choosing to be a truth speaker. Okay? So, I mean, he talks about the fake alien invasion and, you know, they have to burn things down.

PredictionThe US will fake an alien invasion to justify the AI surveillance state, likely during a Trump third term.Open

They need to justify the AI surveillance state. So they'll fake an alien invasion, lots of chaos, lots of deaths, and then they'll bring in the AI surveillance. So I think it is happening, but on their timeline. Okay. And so I would say probably the Trump third term.

Yeah. Okay. Yes. I can't help but be reminded of Foundation by Isaac Asimov. And so I'm curious, you know, Hari Seldon starts the Foundation to slow the period of the dark ages. I'm curious, do you think there are any actions where, you know, you've argued that the fall of civilization is inevitable, but can we adjust the timeline? So accelerate, decelerate, or reduce the term of...

Yeah. So it's interesting because Foundation is something that these techs love. Okay. So they read it, so I mean Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Sam Altman, they're not religious but they're messianic, they're eschatological, and the reason is as kids they read Foundation like myself and they loved it, okay, and they believe that yes, history does go in cycles, and so if we are able to maybe in five years' time complete the cycle of suffering, wouldn't that be better? I mean, we might have to kill 8 billion people. But if in 5 years later we go back to prosperity and peace, that's worth it, right?

So before, I would agree with that analysis, okay? And before, I would be an accelerationist, I would agree that, you know, destroying the world so that we can repair it is probably, you know, the means just finally the ends. Now I disagree. Now I think the world is meant to be destroyed because the world is a delusion. Our material world is an illusion that's preventing us from seeking spiritual truth. And so God's intention is to destroy this world, not to remake it, but to free us from our imprisonment, from our material imprisonment.

And so rather than see the end of the world as something to be mitigated or something to be quickly accelerated, I see it as really an opportunity to liberate the human... Okay. Okay. Okay, one more question.

Acceleration or deceleration?

I'm neither. I'm like...

Whatever comes, it is.

Yes. Yes. Okay. One last question, guys, and then we'll... Yes.

Thanks for coming. I came all the way from St. Louis, Missouri to come and see you. So...

Oh my god. Thank you so much.

Thank you.

I wanted to ask first, I don't know if we'll have time for questions one-on-one later. If not, I'll just ask that question.

Yeah. I can ask it now. Well, if I... for pictures, because a lot of people want some pictures, but...

Yeah. It's actually in regards to your studies with sex culture as well as Gay Talese, which I know was your last video that you had done with Predictive History. Are there any works by him or others that you've come across in regards to, let's say, sex trauma and refinding a connection with healthy sex, I suppose?

I'm sorry. Could you ask the question in a different way so I better understand it? I know that from some of the books like Thy Neighbor's Wife, Gay Talese hit on different types of sex culture within America, kind of almost the oddities of it at times. Are there any works by him or by others that you've come across in regards to sex trauma and how that affects life? I know that you've talked about sex trauma in terms of the military during Alexander the Great and how that was utilized to galvanize the troops in a way, for brotherhood and camaraderie.

But are there any works by Talese or by others that you've come across in regards to sex trauma and...

So what is sex trauma?

Like sexual abuse. Sexual abuse. Are you talking about books?

Yeah. Or if you've come across, are there any books by Gay Talese specifically or by others that have dug into the idea of sex trauma? I work as a psychiatric nurse practitioner so I come across it a lot in patients and how it affects their development as they get older. And I was just curious if you've come across any works or any information specifically in regards to that or in terms of spirituality and how it's healed through spirituality.

Yeah. So that's a really tough question. And I don't know any books but I do know that sex trauma is a very important part of programming children. Right? So think of MK Ultra and these experiments. Look, MK Ultra is a very real, pervasive part of our culture. Because if you're the elite, you want to program your children in a way that allows you to assume the responsibilities of being the elite, which just basically means being evil, right? Being an evil psychopath. And one way of programming children that's very effective is through sex trauma, right?

So raping a child, why? Because it creates bondage, right? It might draw the child to suicide, but it also allows you to bond with a child. And the people who practice this really well are the Spartans. Okay. So what the Spartans did was they wanted to create a society of warriors, of war psychopaths, right? So at age five, young children were removed from their parents and then they were bullied in school for the next six, seven years. So it creates trauma. Okay. Then what happens is because there's this tear in the child's psyche, the child when he's 12 or 13 is paired with an elder mentor who might be like 28, 29, okay?

And they have sex, okay? We're talking about guys, okay? A young boy and an elder man. What this does is it programs the child to be completely emotionally dependent on the elder, on the adult, and think about how in terms of the military this is great, because the young child will now fight and die for the commander, right? And so I mean this is how elites work. Elites find children and essentially traumatize the children, and those who basically do well in the experiment are then put into positions of power.

People like Kamala Harris, I'm not saying she's part of this, but she seems like it, otherwise it's hard for me to explain how she was able to climb to such a pinnacle of power. And people like Emmanuel Macron, maybe. Okay. So that's the most effective way of controlling children. You traumatize them. They have sex with the child. So the child becomes completely emotionally dependent on you and the child just basically does whatever you tell him. Now, there are rejects, right? And they commit suicide, but you know, that's just a cost of this sort of thing.

Okay. All right. Thanks. That's great, guys. Okay. All right. Thank you so much.

All right, that's it. We'll have some good music and we'll have great food. So, yeah. Two.
