I started The Meta Prime Project to inspire an optimistic view of the future, one which we can achieve through individual self actualization and collective creation, and to share the actionable strategies for how we might get there. While the fundamental ideas of forgoing the distraction of conspiratainment and focusing on self improvement have not changed, my understanding of how best to approach networking and building parallel projects has evolved significantly as initial theories have been put to the test.
This State of The Meta article will recap the concepts I have established so far and discuss how our goals and strategies need to evolve going forward. Where I once thought building parallel systems would be the next logical step after individual self actualization, it is becoming clear that establishing high trust networks, digital fraternities based in competence, must come first. We also must position ourselves to take advantage of The Tech Elite Takeover, becoming a source of competence to help with the overhaul of the now completely corrupt and incompetent governmental systems, as this is our own path towards positions of influence from which we can ensure a better future.
All Problem, No Solution
Like many of you, what initially attracted me to this online space was seeing the open discussion of problems that so many others are either ignorant of or choose to ignore. Many of us feel isolated in our understanding of these problems and finding others we can relate with is necessary and rare therapy in an otherwise crazy world. However, when I joined 3 years ago, I was surprised to not only find little practical advice beyond the suggestions of working out, finding God, and reading philosophy, but almost no actionable collective solutions to the broader problems.
This is not to say that problem discussion is not important. The ongoing problem discourse is necessary for bringing new people into the space, teaching the nuances to new arrivals, and establishing a sufficient understanding of the problem so that it can be solved effectively. However, without a solution, many get stuck nihilistically raging about these problems and not having any positive direction to channel their desire for change.
Live Not in Opposition to Evil, but Pursuit of Good
My own experience awakening to the evils and craziness of this world back in 2016 had been far from smooth. I had destroyed friendships, strained the bonds between family, and frayed my sanity trying to rectify what I was learning with the people around me. The internet was little help as we all know the rabbit hole is as deep as you are willing to go and this plunge does little to give you a sense of optimism and control. After years trying to figure out how to live my life post awakening, I realized the solution is not found in some esoteric wisdom or insight into conspiracy, not in burning down the system, but the fundamentals of a good human life and the creation of healthy alternatives.
The Journey, The Path to Personal Actualization
I made many mistakes in my attempts to find a healthy path forward after awakening and The Journey is an orientation guide, the five step process of how to break from the mainstream delusion and contribute to the parallel movement. It is not meant to be prescriptive, but lay out the general strategies and ideas that we all must consider when forging our own path. I wish to save others from making the same mistakes I did and learn good strategies without having to experience their own painful trial and error.
Parallel Movement, The Collective Solution
Beyond personal improvement, we must also have a collective solution to the broader problems inherent in the system. It should be immediately apparent that trying to fix the system from the inside is almost impossible, but we need a way to end our dependence on increasingly unreliable and exploitative systems. And while there is certainly value in tearing down corrupt systems, this would be short sighted without a healthy alternative to replace them. The idea of The Parallel Movement is to build alternative systems that could start small, but slowly grow to become an increasingly viable alternative, much like a startup bringing a better quality service to a stagnate and dying industry.
Naturalism, The Ideology of Nature Based Truth
For us to be successful in building parallel systems, I believed it would be necessary to create an ideology that could bridge the gap and unify all the dissident groups. While we might disagree on issues ranging from religion and culture to history and science, we are all fundamentally united in our pursuit of Truth in order to create a viable and human future. That Truth is derived from Natural Law, the things that are objective, practical, and lindy. By creating an ideology that frames itself in this way, not only do we claim the high ground of objective truth, but we raise a banner that can bring together not only those who wish to conserve the healthy values of the past, but those who wish to forge new paths into the future. Naturalism discards the forced oppositional ideologies of liberalism and conservatism to unify those who wish to build in the parallel movement.
Competency Based Digital Fraternal Networks
Those pioneering the construction of parallel projects have realized simply bringing people together with a common goal is not enough. I myself have witnessed many exciting projects proposed and then flooded with interest, only to quickly die out because the people who got involved didn’t have the cohesion and trust to get past the initial growing pains. Bootstrapping anything takes serious commitment and hard work and so to be successful with any project, there needs to be a foundation of trust that the effort and resources committed will not be wasted.
To create this foundation, we need to start not with the projects, but build networks where trust can be cultivated and used as fertile ground where projects can gestate and grow organically. We might think that having a group chat with a bunch of people is just a bunch of guys wasting time online, but it is through these casual interactions you can get a feel for the people and make more informed decisions on who you could build with. We also need more in person interactions, starting with one on one conversations over coffee and scaling up to small social gatherings.
Much of my content going forward will be focused on providing strategies and best practices for the construction of these fraternities, but slow deliberate growth focused on competency, commitment, and opsec, the facilitation of casual social interaction between members, and the filter of sweat equity seem to be the key elements necessary to success. Many have reached similar conclusions to the importance of fraternal networks and it will be essential that these are done right.
Local Action From Broader Context
While it is essential to lay out these general strategies necessary for our individual and collective success, the specific actions we must take are derived from the unique context of the situations we find ourselves in. While most of what is happening on the world stage is largely a distraction from the local work we all must be doing, understanding the broader trends are necessary to our own grander and long term vision of what and how we must create. The current battle between The Tech Elite and The Old Regime and the impending civil and economic turmoil will certainly create hard times, but also present many opportunities we can take advantage of.
The Tech Elite Takeover
The Tech Elite, comprised most notable by the members of The PayPal Mafia such as Elon Musk and Peter Thiel, realize that the government has become corrupt and incompetent and if they wish to continue to pursue their own interests of building cutting edge tech companies and exploring outer space, they need to take charge of and stabilize the system before it falls apart under its own weight.
Using their positions of business power and influence, their strategy is to partner with Trump and, upon obtaining The White House, used the administrative powers to overhaul the system and clean out the corruption and incompetence. To do this, they will not need lackeys like the previous regime, but competent people who can be trusted to rebuild these systems to function properly. This competency is in short supply, but is found most readily among our guys. We broke from the mainstream delusion and found our way to parallel groups because we have the awareness to understand how broken things have become and the drive to do something about it.
This is why creating competency based digital fraternal networks is so critical at this time. Not only is it what we need to be doing on a local level to ensure our own independence from these broken systems, but by consolidating this competency, it gives us a powerful bargaining chip to obtain a pathway for our own elite to rise and advocate for our needs. We are effectively the first movers in a new frontier and those who take the risk of committing to these groups and helping them grow are solidifying a position in a new elite class of competent professionals.
The Path Forward
We are living at the most important inflection point in the history of mankind. The confluence between the advent of paradigm shifting technologies and a power struggle at the highest level between corruption and competence means whoever comes out on top will set the trajectory of mankind. For the good of our children and a positive and pro human future, we cannot sit idly by, but must heed the call and take decisive action.
While the task ahead of us is daunting, it is through the aggregation of our collective local action that we will have a profound influence on the future. This is certainly a heavy responsibility, but there is nothing more meaningful. I am proud to be among so many brave and honorable people in this endeavor and look forward to fighting alongside you in the battle for a bright, prohuman future.
It was never over and we have never been more back 👾
"All problem, no solution" could be the anthem of our time.
I learn much from the discussions by reading freedom-focused groups on Substack and a few other free-speech oriented platforms, they help me find enough information to make rational decisions. I usually am only marginally involved in the discourse. I must confess to occasionally reading a good flame war, but that doesn't build on the promise of the future.
Sadly, these discussions often do not advocate the type of change on the magnitude you envision, so it is with great appreciation whenever I read your works. I do not contribute in the manner in which you might expect, my efforts are small and something I have been doing for a long time by doing such things as not buying into the corporate world to the greatest extent possible and confining my efforts to small positive projects that involve reusing materials instead of buying them new. I have never purchased a new car, in fact my 1990 Ford pickup is latest model, one I acquired five years ago. As a matter of principle I have been self employed most my life as I could never fit in to the wage-slave mentality.
My goodness I could go on, but I think you get my point. I am always excited to read your new posts and wish I could afford to support you and so many others, but it has been a bleak year financially. But I am turning things around.
God bless.
