I don't believe in 'accidents' and/or 'coincidences' when I see unmistakable patterns evolving. But what to make of it all is very, very difficult.
I am no “insider.” In fact I was purged from a tenured faculty position for my politics. But all of your speculations seem to have merit. Biden regime like many other authoritarian ones in which a wrinkle in the current Party Line leads of the purge of hundreds. At least they get to keep their pensions and health benefits.
I think that there is a big roll back going on, and involving purging if you will. Too much power has been lost to the Mexican cartels, the DoD, the CIA, people running radical groups/proxies and so on. In short, the Apex Banking Establishment sees that if they don't reverse things in a big way they will become irrelevant. A lot of this has to be guessed at, at least for now. But as a tip of the iceberg, a lot of big names are now gone. And as I said, I don't believe in coincidences and accidents (maybe a few, but not a lot).
Here's an example. Ronna McDaniels, RNC head since 2017. A big Trump supporter, well-connected, part of the Romney political family ... and so why would she be out of a job? Maybe this from Wikipedia is why:
"Since McDaniel's 2017 election as chair of the RNC, the Republican Party has had a net loss of seven governorships, three seats in the United States Senate, and 19 seats in the House of Representatives, and the presidency. In December 2022, Axios wrote that McDaniel "has thus far failed to preside over a single positive election cycle."[1]
So, if you are the Top of the Money Pyramid and you see everything going down the drain, domestically and internationally, world and Collective West and you are doing a multi-generation pivot away from the Collective Insanity, you have to cut way all the dead wood in you way ... especially the dead wood than cannot perform and yield results. You need new powerful voices like Milei that can get things done. Maybe that is why we are now seeing all these things never before seen.
Alas, with all of this being orchestrated in a semi-covert way, it can only be guessed at. My hunch is that we are only beginning to see stunning changes. And that it will be throughout the entire culture. I am guessing that Woke is on the way out because it has gotten to laughingly insane. Bankers cannot be having that. The laughter at their expense has just gotten to loud, so loud that it cannot be longer ignored. (If I am wrong, then it will be total collapse and a very long dark night. It might be excruciating as it is to repair some 75 years of really bad policy, bad social and cultural 'engineering'.
(Hopefully you ended up in a better place than academia.)
Well you know that verse (Romans 8:28) that in all things God works for the good of those who have faith in Him: I was delivered from a toxic work environment and I left academia just before the plandemic turned universities on their heads with imposed “distance learning” (a farce) and forcing weird seating arrangements in class held in person. Then CRT and DEI hit the universities requiring all faculty to have to include their diversity work into their departmental evaluations. Even STEM disciplines not spared: if you are an astrophysicist writing a grant proposal you must now include a section describing how your study of the stars will promote “diversity!” Then the preferred pronouns nonsense hit the campuses. All this weaponized student griping against faculty and sowed discord between all these loving liberals almost like the Cultural Revolution in China. The campus has become a hellish environment for the very progressives who purged me. I was spared all of that and I can laugh at their misery. Retirement means I can catch up on a lot of other things that make life worthwhile.
Amazing! DEI in the sky ... like Lucy with Diamonds ... Little Star-like Twinkling Diamonds.
Exactly Right! It is the Cultural Revolution with an 'American Face'. Speaking of which, I now understand why the All Useful Idiots, All the King's Puppets of Academia can believe this stuff as being real (which it is not). It has to do with transforming by Word Sorcery ideas/ideology into 'property' ... and indeed! A very clever piece of work! Pay also attention to the part on Volk/Folk. I don't have endless hours for video and therefore delete most of my Substack mailbox, but this one takes the cake. Very instructive. It put me over the top on a couple of key points.
The guy emphasizes Mao-ism, and that is a huge, huge part of it. But Woke is actually a hybrid Marxism, a blending of all key schools of Marxist thinking. My wife says that James Lindsay claims to be a New Atheist, whatever that is. That is pretty amazing given the analysis.
This a great mystery to me:
1) Does Nuland just see the writing on the wall and is getting out of Dodge while the getting is good?
2) Is this another forced exit in what appears to be a string of forced exits? (We can only guess, but might never know ... at least for a very long time.
3) And is this resignation just part of a far bigger 'reversal' going?

I watched Lindsay's speech last year. He has a clarity of message that should be on a national podium.
New Atheist? Wow...I just can't.
