Stage 6 Is Fully Fledged, and Stage 7 Has Begun

In stage six, we typically see:

  • Assets seized or restructured under state-loyal oligarchs
  • National currency destabilized or replaced by loyalty-controlled systems
  • Black markets form for medicine, tech, information
  • Social hierarchies restructured: loyalists get housing, healthcare, jobs
  • Re-education or labor programs for “unproductive” citizens

And, in recent weeks, these have started to be put into place. You may have seen the government announcing that U.S. Steel is now partially under government control, and that the president announced he is creating his own phone company (Trump Mobile).

He is putting pressure on the Federal Reserve Chair to resign, and plans to replace Jerome Powell soon with a loyalist who will cut rates at his discretion.

Medicaid cuts are now part of law, and about 17 million people will lose care, which will create pressure for alternative markets for healthcare.

Palantir is working with the government to create ingestion engines that crunch citizen data from Google, Meta, and Apple platforms using warrantless surveillance to create concepts like "loyalty scores" that will determine whether or not citizens have access to social services, or privileges like leaving the country. It is because of projects like these that the company has seen a spate of values-driven resignations.

And, the president is suggesting that American citizens ("homegrowns") who disagree or oppose his policies should be deported to foreign countries or renditioned to detention centers (the most recent bill having allocated an additional $45B to create internment camps like Alligator Alcatraz, where due to National Defense Areas, due process, and access to legal and medical aid is suspended). 

Stage 7 has also begun. As a reminder, in Stage 7, we typically see (often cloaked as “cost savings,” “public health,” or “cultural pride”):

  • Medical experimentation, sterilization, and exclusion from care
  • Denial of treatment to disabled or chronically ill groups
  • Propagation of “superior” citizen types through pronatalist or racial purity policies
  • Erasure of non-aligned cultural groups via language, education, or religious bans

The first is being implemented through new FDA policies, such as the restrictions of who can receive Covid vaccines and other types of vaccinations.

Robert Kennedy's Jr.'s beliefs oppose germ theory, and support eugenics: he says that if people are hale and hearty enough, they will not catch communicable diseases even if exposed to pathogens, and that those who do catch them are at fault, and deserve to be ill, because they are physically inferior.

It is essentially a "survival of the fittest" strategy that rather than supporting modern medical interventions that save lives supports allowing people who are unlucky in their exposures, or genetically predisposed to illness, to die from treatable conditions.

The second has become a reality with the passage of the "One Big Beautiful Bill", which institutes a mass denial of treatment to America's disabled, whose supportive services (in home care, assistive devices, medications) are provided through Medicaid. Although this is under the guise of cost savings to the MAGA base, the bill actually adds trillions to the national debt.

The last is now in place through the recent withholding of education funding that eliminates ESL programs for children who do not speak English. And, across most federal services, the government is now also soliciting reporting from any citizen who believes federal offerings (like national parks, or public college curricula) is anti-American.
