"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

prof. Jiang Xueqin is a total crank and anti-communist, no wonder he's the youtube algorithm superstar.

He's one giant confirmation bias crossed with a scam artist. He picks the minority side on the most controversial topics and makes up a bunch of sophistries to support it. So if you are looking for someone you want to agree with, you stumble on this guy. He knows how to pace his insanity to make it sound convincing. He'll start off grounded and sounding like a normal academic, and as time goes by he'll start getting more and more into the bullshit. But he worked on your defenses early on, and so now you just find yourself keep agreeing with him.

I've sat through one of his interviews recently, out of curiosity mostly. It was an incredible ride to say the least:

  • Started with how the US is getting beat by Iran

  • Went on to talk about corruption in US politics

  • Talked about AI being used as a tool to accelerate global warming and control the population/gather data.

  • Predicted that in 5 years everyone will die as we run out of food since everybody works on AI jobs instead of farming.

  • Started saying how Epstein was just a member of a larger cabal of cultists intend on bringing the end of the world because that will make them profits

  • Talked about Zionist and Christian eschatology and how the rich and powerful are all in a cult, taking part in satanic rituals and corruption to create a sense of community among themselves

  • We are not going to die after all, because people will rise up in revolt and countries will either turn into theocracies, or fascist ethnostates, or ultranationalist peace lovers. Somehow this will save the world because it's the only way to care about humanity and make enough food.
