1/ The Big Picture Mind: What Every Elite is Missing
Big Pictures are holistic, integrative, self-consistent systems of thought that when combined represent the broadest and deepest philosophical worldview available to humanity today.
Big Pictures liberate. By building a mind capable of seeing what’s really happening, you have more freedom, more understanding, and feel at home in the world no matter how chaotic it seems.
I recently did a live event to provide what I hope will be one of the Biggest Picture views of what’s happening in 2025 available anywhere in the world.
This thread clips the video for easily digestible chunks and explains each piece along the way.
This loss by Cassidy, combined w soaring inflation & a takeover of the electoral system by the GOP via gerrymandering, will show voters they don’t have power to control their lives.
Good, it’s exactly what’s needed to amplify & accelerate the release phase. Not enough pain yet.
I think a values trust mark is a profoundly important idea right now. And integrative values even more so.
Check it out. Adopt it if it fits.
1/6 IAM has just released the Integrative Values Charter — a voluntary, self-attested trust mark organized around eight shared commitments, designed as a public signal of alignment with the depth, honesty, and care our moment demands integrativevalues.org/
For any of my followers who want a private sneak peek of a @IAMetatheory’s latest project, DM me.
Trump will be judged as history’s biggest idiot. Over a decade, he somehow blundered every step necessary in order to single-handedly give Iran its nuclear weapons. The Iranians have to be awestruck at their good fortune.
I just released a paper @IAMetatheory arguing that AI alignment is insoluble as currently framed, and might require a move to topographical, values realist meta-alignment to make it both technically tractable and philosophically coherent.

Every single American is on the verge of becoming an historic monster that future generations will look on in shame, wondering how a people could be so depraved as to allow a clear and expressed genocide to be committed by their nation in their name.
Watching this unfolding energy debacle with Iran thinking the same forces that’ve killed our march toward non-petro energy resilience also act to guarantee its inevitability.
Reality eats simple leaders for lunch.

We’re being pulled back toward the 19th-century across all four quadrants, says @RobbSmith.
History already tested that model — and it led to endless conflict.
So what’s the new story that can bring coherence to today’s fragmented world?

1/5 Can faith development be measured with greater precision?
@BrendanGrahamD1 shares some compelling findings from his research into Integral altitudes: a statistically significant correlation between Fowler’s stages of faith and the Lectical Assessment Scale.
I’ve never been more optimistic about the future than I am today.
AI is the technology the Integrative Worldview needed, and the worldview is what AI cannot succeed without.
Humanity suffers most centrally from lack of a philosophical worldview that can ground differences in a higher pattern that connects. Metatheory 2.0, or what I’ve called Integrative Archtheory, is at this moment the only candidate that might do so.
Gallipoli. Arrogant & senescent empire wages optional battle against Muslims, half million dead for zero strategic benefit. Loses battle, badly. Incompetence destroyed British credibility forever.
China must be stunned that Americans—leaders or voters—don’t read.
Natch.
While Trump has called for regime change in Iran, he makes clear in phone interview with @KannoYoungs that he is fine with remnants of the repressive regime remaining in power. "What we did in Venezuela, I think, is the perfect, the perfect scenario." nytimes.com/2026/03/01/us/po…

Seriously. I can’t tell if we’ve destroyed Iran. Or they’re having a successful counter attack. None of it in chronological order. Half the For You tweets about it from random aggregator accounts trying to make $4. None of it verified. Add in grok + AI slop. Shit show.
