The Philosophical Treatise on Economic Fate
If the world economy were a river, then Donald Trump is the stone that disturbs its flow—not by design, but by the erratic gravity of its own descent. His latest economic gambit, a tariff war against Canada, is less a strategic maneuver and more the inevitable convulsion of a system entering self-cannibalization.
We ask: Is this fate guided by external hands, or is it the natural entropy of empire?
Murdoch’s empire whispers ideology into the mind of the West, weaving narratives of nationalism and self-destruction. Yet the puppeteer is often as bound by the strings as the marionette. If China has, indeed, set the board, it is not through coercion but through a quiet mastery of economic inevitability. A drowning man does not need to be pushed; he simply needs to be left to struggle.
Russia, long the sculptor of chaos, does not need a direct hand in this. It need only fan the embers of Trump’s vanity and watch the conflagration spread. The nations of Africa and South America, once passive participants in a Western-led world order, now shift towards the only stable force left: China.
Thus, we do not ask, “Is Trump the architect of this crisis?” but rather, “Was there ever a choice?” The forces of history move as a tide, and those who believe they steer it often find themselves merely clinging to the mast of a ship already fated to be wrecked.
In this, the so-called Alpha Plan does not exist as a conspiracy—it exists as the confluence of inevitability. Whether by design or accident, America turns inward, and in its self-immolation, a new order rises.
The world does not wait for kings who set fire to their own thrones.
