🧨 “Welcome to Idiotopia: Gerasimov Watches the Empire Swallow Its Own Brainstem”
“The most powerful country in the world just fired its national security staff and replaced them with a fucking meme page.”
So picture this: Valery Gerasimov, Russia’s top military brain, the guy who eats hybrid warfare for breakfast and cyber-psychology for lunch, sitting in a darkened control room in Moscow, sipping stale coffee and watching America’s National Security Council run off a cliff.
But not like a dramatic car chase. No. This isn’t James Bond.
This is America’s Funniest Home Videos: National Security Edition.
Because what happened? The U.S. government, in its infinite brilliance, fired actual professionals — you know, people who could spell “geopolitics” without drooling — and replaced them with loyalist hacks, YouTube personalities, and Laura Fucking Loomer.
That’s right. A woman banned from Uber for racism now has more say in American national security than a career intelligence analyst with 20 years in the field. How’s that for end-stage empire?
And Gerasimov? He doesn’t even need to press a button. He just watches.
🧠The NSC Becomes a Gong Show
Let’s start with the basics: the National Security Council is supposed to be the goddamn brain of the U.S. military-industrial complex. It’s the place where threats are analyzed, alliances weighed, and dumb ideas filtered out before they get you nuked by China.
But in 2025 America? That brain’s been scooped out and replaced with a cheering section.
- Actual experts? Fired.
- Strategic thinkers? Too suspicious.
- People who say “yes, sir” with the enthusiasm of a Walmart greeter? Promoted.
Because you see, the real enemy now isn’t terrorism, or China, or Russia. It’s “disloyal vibes.”
Hell, the new hiring criteria seems to be:
- Can you keep a secret?
- No? That’s fine. Just don’t make the president look bad on Twitter.
And Gerasimov’s sitting there thinking: “They just outsourced their war planning to people who get their news from Telegram conspiracy groups. Incredible.”
📉 The Feedback Loop of Doom
In systems theory — yes, America, that’s a thing — a good organization runs on feedback. You observe, you analyze, you decide. That’s called the OODA loop.
But the U.S.? It doesn’t have a feedback loop anymore. It has a clapback loop.
- Observe: Nothing.
- Orient: Whatever the hell Fox & Friends says.
- Decide: “Fire someone.”
- Act: Retweet a meme about masculinity and oil.
The result? A government that makes decisions based not on reality, but on vibes and loyalty rituals.
Gerasimov sees this and laughs. Not because he’s a villain. But because the U.S. has become a parody of a rational actor.
You can’t run a nuclear empire like it’s a TikTok beef.
You can’t base your deterrence policy on who praised you the loudest during lunch.
But here we are.
🧠“Dumb is the New Doctrine”
The scariest part? This isn’t a mistake. It’s policy. The new doctrine is clear:
“Only the stupid shall remain.”
Why? Because intelligence is dangerous. Competence is threatening. If someone knows what they’re doing, they might point out that the emperor’s plan to hold a missile briefing on Signal with a journalist in the room was, I don’t know, fucking idiotic.
And that’s the real rub: truth has become treason.
America isn’t governing anymore. It’s hosting a reality show called Who Wants to Be a Loyalist?
Prizes include:
- A corner office,
- Zero strategic training,
- And a one-way ticket to watching the world burn while smiling like an idiot.
🪞 Strategic Narcissism with Nukes
America used to be feared. Now it’s just weird.
Gerasimov sees a country that no longer projects power — it projects personal insecurity.
They don’t want deterrence.
They want applause.
They don’t want strategy.
They want to feel like winners on Truth Social.
This is no longer statecraft. This is self-esteem therapy with ballistic missiles.
“The NSC is no longer a national security body,” Gerasimov would mutter.
“It’s a support group for an empire that can’t handle criticism.”
🕳️ When Logos Dies, You Get Theater
Back in the day, the state — any state — ran on Logos. On reason. Debate. Objective reality.
But the U.S. has thrown all that into a blender and hit “purée.”
Now it runs on:
- Narrative,
- Tribes,
- Emotion,
- And a paranoid allergy to facts.
Gerasimov, who studied Soviet collapse like it was a sacred text, would recognize this instantly. Because when a state stops seeking the truth and starts performing a fantasy — that’s the death spiral.
“You can still run tanks, but your brain is offline. The empire’s body moves, but the soul is gone.”
đź”® Prediction Is Dead, Long Live the Algorithm
Once upon a time, American power meant predicting the future. That’s what strategy is, goddammit.
But now? America can’t predict anything — not because it lacks data, but because it fires anyone who points to it.
How can you orient yourself when:
- Maps are fake,
- Compass needles are glued in place,
- And your navigator is a podcaster who thinks NATO is a sandwich?
Gerasimov would calmly note: “They are flying blind. Not because they lost their eyes, but because they gouged them out.”
💣 Final Thought: You’re Not at War — But You Are Imploding
America isn’t at war with the world. It’s at war with itself.
And not even in the fun, Civil War cosplay way — in the institutional lobotomy way.
The enemy isn’t out there with tanks. It’s in here, with microphones.
The empire is rotting from the inside while live-streaming its decay with a fucking ring light.
“The barbarians aren’t at the gates,” Gerasimov thinks.
“They’re hosting the press briefing.”
🎯 TL;DR — Gerasimov’s Summary
“America’s fighting a war it doesn’t know it’s in, led by people who don’t know what a war is, staffed by people who think truth is a Twitter setting. It’s not strategy. It’s stand-up. And the punchline is nuclear.”
