ORDER OFF THE MENU
by TJB / CreatorHumanâ˘
He got the Tech Bros to fall for the oldest trick in the AEB:
You donât get invited to the table because youâre special.
You get invited because youâre edible.
They thought they were guests of honor â
visionaries, disruptors, masters of the algorithmic universe.
But authoritarians donât do partnerships.
They do provisions.
He brings them to the table until he needs their food â
their data, their bandwidth, their infrastructure, their capital, their credibility.
And the moment they stop feeding him?
Theyâre the ones on the platter.
đ˝ď¸ THE FEAST NO ONE SHOULD WANT
Welcome to the Authoritarian Eats Board â
where the table is long, the lighting is dim,
and the menu is nothing but you.
The Tech Bros sprinted on the Future Treadmill,
burning calories and capital like champions,
trying to outrun collapse.
But the twist?
That treadmill wasnât taking them forward.
It was rolling backward â straight into the Gilded Age.
And the faster they ran,
the more flavor they added to the feast.
đââď¸ THE TREADMILL SPECIAL
(your line, tightened to a blade)
Oh, the things we do to eat moreâŚ
We chase hustle culture.
We run for relevance.
We sprint for survival.
We jog for acceptance.
We pant for belonging.
We sweat for proximity to power.
We sacrifice sleep for ânext quarter.â
All while the treadmill quietly reverses direction,
rolling us back into a banquet hall built by robber barons
and lit by oligarchs.
By the time we look up from the grind?
Weâre the protein.
đĽ THE AEB TRICK â WHY YOU WERE INVITED
He doesnât invite brilliance.
He doesnât invite vision.
He doesnât invite innovation.
He invites calories.
You werenât recruited to build the future.
You were recruited to fortify someone elseâs past.
You were applause until he needed something real.
Then:
Off the table.
Onto the menu.
đĽ THE RAT-IN-A-MAZE MOMENT
(The line that ties it all together)
Sci-fi wasnât fantasy.
It was rehearsal.
Writers mapped this blueprint years ago:
how corruption metastasizes,
how power behaves when threatened,
how democracies crack,
how alliances snap,
how one manâs ego can pivot a nation.
The profile was always the same:
Corner him â he chews through the wires.
đĽ THE EAST WING TELL â WHEN WALLS CLOSE IN
Your line stands untouched:
âWhen the walls come in on the United States, he tears down the East Wing.â
Autocrats donât fix the maze.
They smash a hole in the wall and sprint toward the nearest strongman.
This isnât ideology.
It isnât politics.
It isnât patriotism.
Itâs survival instinct in a gold-plated suit.
đĽ THE GLOBAL CRAB â THE REAL VILLAIN ARC
You said it:
âHe already sold his soul, and now the country is paying the interest.â
This is what happens when personal loyalty replaces national loyalty:
Enemies become âfriends.â
Allies become bargaining chips.
Democracy becomes dĂŠcor.
Policy becomes protection money.
Itâs not a political story.
Itâs a syndicate story wearing a flag like a costume.
đĽ THE MARRIAGE POINT â SYMBOLISM TELLS ON ITSELF
âIn fact, he married into it.â
Exactly.
Because this isnât about family
itâs about aesthetic allegiance:
gold columns, monarchy cosplay, oligarch chic,
Gilded Age furniture, Gulf State glam.
When dĂŠcor becomes dynasty,
intention becomes architecture.
đĽ THE VODKA LINE â VICE AS GOVERNMENT
Autocratic economies orbit:
alcohol
casinos
energy
arms
real estate
tobacco
Democracies tax.
Autocracies digest.
He isnât flaunting wealth â heâs selling vice as statecraft.
đĽ THE FASCIST AESTHETIC â WHEN A HOUSE STARTS TALKING
âWe donât decorate like the Middle East in the USA â thatâs not a fashion trend, itâs a fascist trend.â
Authoritarian architecture is propaganda in marble:
Gold plating.
Hard symmetry.
Intimidation over inspiration.
Iconography over ornament.
When that aesthetic enters
the peopleâs house?
Thatâs not dĂŠcor.
Thatâs direction.
And the country feels it.
â CLOSING NOTE TO READERS
This is Part 1 of a 3-piece Double Tap series Random shots specific targets all mapping the authoritarian aesthetic, the psychological playbook,
and the global consequences shaping the next election.
If this resonated, pass it to one thoughtful person.
Thatâs how truth travels now.
