Something strange is happening in our time. Technology is accelerating. AI and automation are beginning to transform civilization. The old economic and social assumptions are starting to break. At the same time, many Christians have long spoken about a coming turning point in history. At Fatima, the Virgin Mary spoke of a future “era of peace.” At Medjugorje, the visionaries say a permanent sign will one day appear on Apparition Hill as a call for the world to return to God. Whether one believes these events or not, it is hard to ignore that humanity may be entering a new chapter. For centuries our world has been shaped by scarcity, competition, and survival. But AI, automation, and scientific breakthroughs may push humanity toward something different — an age where survival is less central and the deeper questions return. Questions about meaning. About consciousness. About God. Throughout history, civilizations rise and fall when they lose their story. But beneath all stories there is a deeper pattern. The Logos. The same truth that philosophers searched for, myths pointed toward, and Christianity declares was made flesh in Christ. Maybe the coming age will force humanity to rediscover it. I explore that intersection of Christianity, myth, consciousness, and the future of civilization here. Follow if that interests you.

The internet amplified the loudest and most combative versions of every ideology. But in the long run, traditions usually survive not because they win arguments online, but because they preserve meaning, beauty, ritual, continuity, and a coherent vision of reality across generations. Civilizations don’t hold together on outrage alone.

Remember, when social-media anti-Catholics start to annoy you, they are just a tiny (but loud) minority among Protestants. The Internet is the ONLY place where they can pretend to look bigger. Their kind of Protestantism is dying out.

People keep calling this a political shift, but it feels deeper than that. Across the West, people are reaching back toward identity, symbols, flags, religion, myth, nation, tradition. Almost like modern society solved comfort but lost meaning. When civilizations lose a shared Logos, they don’t become neutral. They fragment into competing tribes searching for it again. The real question is whether this becomes renewal… or escalation

NEXTA@nexta_tv

🇬🇧 Biggest nationalist march in London in years Tommy Robinson brought tens of thousands of people onto the streets. Participants marched with British flags and crosses, demanding an end to illegal migration and the protection of “traditional Christian values.” Counter-protests were also held across the city.

For most of history, humanity lived inside an enchanted world. Forests held spirits. Mountains hid giants. The sea concealed monsters. Visions, miracles, saints, omens, and sacred places were woven into everyday reality. Then something shifted. As civilization industrialized, mapped the planet, and reduced reality into systems and mechanisms, the mythic slowly retreated from the outer world into stories, symbols, and the unconscious. Not because meaning disappeared. Because modernity trained us to stop seeing it. Maybe Tolkien, Jung, Lewis, and even thinkers like Terence McKenna became so influential precisely because they sensed this loss of Logos before most people could articulate it. What if myths survive not because our ancestors were ignorant… but because they understood something we’ve forgotten?

English

Nikolas Chandler@NikolasChandle2·1d

The modern world laughs at myth while slowly rediscovering the same patterns our ancestors never stopped talking about. Luminous beings. Tricksters. Serpent symbolism. Spiritual warfare. Contact between worlds. Even Marian apparitions like Medjugorje describe humanity entering an age of confusion, deception, and technological acceleration. Different civilizations. Different symbols. Same archetypal patterns appearing again and again. Maybe the old world was trying to preserve something we forgot.

Thousands of years before ‘the Lady’ and ‘Aliens’… Hinduism discussed a wide range of non-human intelligences that coexist with us… Devas - luminous celestial intelligences Asuras - powerful beings often associated with ego, domination, or material power Nagas - serpent-associated subterranean/interdimensional beings Yakshas - nature and treasure spirits Gandharvas - musical/artistic celestial beings Siddhas - spiritually advanced beings with extraordinary abilities Rakshasas - chaotic or predatory entities Our government is telling people to ‘read the Bible’ or ‘read Enoch’… They should be telling people to read the Vedas and Upanishads.

English

Nikolas Chandler@NikolasChandle2·1d

Almost every civilization described higher intelligences, luminous beings, deception, spiritual warfare, and contact between worlds. The modern world acts like this began in 1947. Even Marian apparitions like Medjugorje describe humanity entering a period of spiritual confusion, technological acceleration, and moral testing. Different symbols. Same pattern.

@elonmusk Every civilization eventually discovers this: compassion without responsibility collapses into chaos, but responsibility without compassion collapses into tyranny. The tension between the two is the entire challenge of civilization.

Le socialisme n'est pas une théorie économique. C'est une structure morale qui a besoin de trois choses pour exister : 1. De la rareté à redistribuer 2. Des victimes à défendre 3. Une classe d'intermédiaires pour orchestrer le tout Retirez un seul de ces trois piliers et l'édifice s'effondre. L'IA est en train de retirer les trois en même temps.

Modern civilization confuses compassion with the inability to discriminate. Real empathy isn’t stimulus-response emotion. It requires consciousness, pattern recognition, and responsibility for second-order consequences. In Jungian terms: integrating shadow, not pretending it doesn’t exist.

English

Elon Musk@elonmusk·1d

Beware the empathy exploit. Empathy is good and right when thought through (deep), but can be deadly to civilization when simply stimulus-response (shallow). For example, releasing a repeat violent offender may feel good at first (shallow empathy for the criminal), but it is wrong to do so when that person will go on to hurt or murder innocent victims, as there should be deep empathy for future victims.

Babel wasn’t condemned because humanity sought knowledge. It was condemned because humanity sought transcendence without wisdom. Now we are reconnecting the world again through AI, networks, and technology — rebuilding a planetary civilization. The real question isn’t whether we reach the stars. It’s whether we do it aligned with the Logos… or repeat the same civilizational mistake on a cosmic scale. Are we preparing humanity for communion… or constructing a more sophisticated Babel?

English

Nikolas Chandler@NikolasChandle2·1d

City-states rise when people lose faith in shared meaning. Rome didn’t fall because cities existed. It fell because the Logos holding civilization together weakened. Technology can connect infrastructure. It can’t replace a civilization’s soul. AI may change nations. But it won’t erase the human need for identity, myth, history, and belonging. The real question is: what holds a people together when efficiency becomes the highest value?

English

David Scott Patterson@davidpattersonx·1d

The end of nations. The city-state will be the only political entity in the future. The main reason nations exist is for security. The economic, political, and technological impact of AI will make war obsolete. There will be nothing left to hold nations together. The city will be all that matters. Each city will have its own character, culture, and constitution. Choose your city, or build your own.

Aquinas didn't just say angels are spiritual. He proved it philosophically — step by step — in a way that dismantles the materialist worldview entirely. Most Catholics don't know the argument. They should. A thread.

3rd grade teacher gets arrested for drinking on the job. On the first day of class, school officials noticed Coates acting strangely. When confronted by Superintendent Doug Ogle and the School principal, the details became increasingly shocking: After claiming her slurred speech was due to "anxiety meds," Coates blew a .24 on a breathalyzer—3x the legal limit for driving. The superintendent found a blue cup in her classroom filled with red wine. While she initially called it "juice," she eventually admitted to drinking on her way to work that morning. School officials tried to help her secure a safe ride home, but her refusal to cooperate her tampering with the blue cup that was found led to her being arrested for Public Intoxication on school grounds. If the school arrest wasn't enough, the story took a bizarre turn during her sentencing Coates arrived at the Payne County Courthouse to plead guilty to the original charge. However, the Judge noticed she was unsteady and slurred her words. After entering her plea and being handed a deferred sentence (probation), the Judge ordered an immediate breath test. "Drunk as a Skunk": The test confirmed she was intoxicated while standing before the Judge. Her probation was effectively violated the moment it began. She was arrested in the courtroom and taken straight back to the same jail she had visited months prior. She is no longer employed by the Perkins-Tryon school district and, given the high-profile nature of the two arrests, her teaching license and career were effectively terminated. As part of her ongoing legal battle, she was required to undergo substance abuse evaluations and outpatient after-care.

@Andercot Maybe it’s less a secret cabal and more what naturally happens when a civilization falls out of alignment with Logos. The Fisher King story is basically about this: the land becomes sick because the king himself is spiritually wounded

Sure, but what’s fascinating is that no matter which creation story people arrive at — cosmic war, simulation, evolution, divine creation — they keep rediscovering the same underlying pattern. Sacrifice, death/rebirth, order from chaos, the Logos. The story of Christ echoes through almost everything.

@Dr_Singularity The problem is people sense this isn’t just ‘more internet.’ It’s civilization-scale infrastructure tied to surveillance, labor disruption, energy dependence, and centralized power. You can’t ask people to trust a future that even its creators admit they can’t fully predict.

this is madness "7 in 10 Americans oppose constructing data centers for AI in their local area, including nearly half, 48%, who are strongly opposed." Data centers are becoming the new nuclear power plants. Everyone wants the benefits of AI: faster medicine, better science, cheaper services, smarter tools, more abundance. But when it’s time to actually build it, no one wants it near them. The AI age needs energy, chips, cooling, land, transmission lines, and massive data centers. We won't get the amazing, advanced future (abundance, no diseases, aging cured - we need a TON of AI to achieve this) by opposing every piece of infrastructure required to build it.

@TheProjectUnity We still debate and reinterpret Arthurian myths from barely 1,000 years ago. Trying to confidently explain the symbolic meaning of figures from 7,000 years ago is probably beyond us. Good luck pretending we fully understand their world.

@athenaeumbc Modern education teaches specialization without meaning. The older model assumed truth was unified — that logic, music, mathematics, beauty, morality, and God were all reflections of the same underlying order. Maybe that’s the Logos we lost

Athenaeum Book Club@athenaeumbc·1d

You did not receive a real education. Today, we think of education as a litany of scattered disciplines that you study for careerism and social mobility. But a classical education was different. It taught you the seven liberal arts to liberate your soul... First, you learned the Trivium: • Grammar • Logic • Rhetoric Once you could think, speak, and articulate yourself clearly, you moved to the Quadrivium: • Arithmetic • Music • Geometry • Astronomy The Quadrivium is about training you to see order in reality itself. Nature has an intelligent design and you are connected to it: you belong in the cosmos. The difference with a true liberal arts education is not simply what you study, but *why* you study it. A classical liberal arts education taught you how to find God — the Transcendent Good was the end point of all education. Instead of a set of independent disciplines, education was a deeply interconnected moral pursuit, teaching you to be attuned with truth, beauty, and goodness. This interconnectedness is why the 7 liberal arts are presented as a wheel. And have you noticed that the symbol of the 7 liberal arts is strikingly similar to the rose windows of Gothic cathedrals? That's no coincidence. Rose windows symbolize Heaven, suggesting that reality itself is patterned after them — and this same circular pattern is the symbol of classical education in the liberal arts. The implication is that the liberal arts liberate your soul by forming you according to the pattern of Heaven itself. Education is preparation for eternity. athenaeumbooks.com/welcome This is from a longer essay published in our newsletter — join us!

@AshtonForbes The problem is civilizations are terrible at predicting the independent variable. Every major technological leap creates second and third order effects nobody foresaw. We should move carefully before rebuilding society around assumptions that may be wrong

English

Ashton Forbes@AshtonForbes·1d

You're supposed to do nothing. AI is going to replace jobs and people won't need to work anymore. It's already happening, 21% of working age men 16-64 don't work as of 2025. Energy is going to get cheaper and automation more extensive. In the process, manual labor becomes obsolete. A future with unlimited abundance is radically different than the society we have today.

Matt Walsh@MattWalshBlog

Big Tech companies are sprinting forward, building data centers as fast as they can, sometimes using eminent domain to seize the land by force, making their AI more and more powerful, expanding the technology at lightening speed with no guardrails of any kind at all. Yet none of these tech gurus or any of their apologists have even attempted to explain what exactly all of the millions of people who lose their jobs, and the increasing numbers who lose their homes, all sacrificed on the AI altar, are supposed to do. How does society support millions of unemployed and displaced people? What becomes of a society where algorithms and machines do everything, and a few people become trillionaires while millions more lose everything? There is no answer to any of this. They aren’t even attempting to answer it. Instead we’re simply told that China exists and we have to “beat them” in some unspecified way, in order to achieve some unspecified goal. We’re going to obliterate entire industries, entire categories of jobs all at once, and the only justification anyone can give is “China.” It’s madness.

One of the biggest mistakes of modernity was assuming older civilizations were intellectually primitive. Aquinas was wrestling with consciousness, abstraction, metaphysics, causality, and the nature of mind centuries before modern neuroscience even existed. We didn’t replace the old questions. We inherited them.
