At long last, InfoWars is ours

布莱斯·四面体详细描述了他对InfoWars.com未来令人不安的愿景,现在该网站由他的公司全球四面体控制。四面体被童年噩梦所困扰,噩梦中有一种破坏性、失控的力量让他感到负责,他认为InfoWars正是这种恐怖的实现——一个并非为了信息,而是为了有意识地、系统地瓦解思想的平台。 他设想一个充满诈骗、虚假信息和剥削性内容的数字竞技场,一个用户乐于牺牲心理健康的地方。这个“新的InfoWars”将是一个自我延续的循环,内容是关于内容的,无休止地消耗和贬低所有形式的艺术。 四面体将此视为一个宏大但恶意的项目——一个“曼哈顿计划”,用于心理折磨——由利润和对人类妄想的令人不安的迷恋所驱动。他欢迎这个黑暗的未来,认为它代表了现代美国的真正精神,并邀请其他人加入他,共同构建这个“糟糕的故事”。

Let me tell you a story. When I was a child, I suffered from night terrors. It was always the same dream: I could hear my family and neighbors wailing in the street outside as they were pursued and then destroyed by a nameless malevolent force, something neither I nor anyone else could control, a great darkness that was, somehow, all my fault.

Today, that childhood dream is finally coming true. Today I can finally say the sweetest nine or 10 words in the English language: Global Tetrahedron has completed its plan to control InfoWars.com.

I’ve had a lot of time to think about InfoWars in the last year and a half. As the seasons have changed, my ambitions for the project have grown grander, crueler, better aligned with market data. Come, friends, and imagine with me…

Imagine a roaring arena packed to the rafters with pathological liars. High above you in the nosebleeds are podcasters, screaming that you’ll die if you don’t buy their skincare products. Below, on the floor, imagine demonic battalions of super-influencers physically forcing people into home fitness devices designed to dismantle their bodies bone by bone and reassemble them into a grotesque statue of yourself. Out of the throngs, an extremely sick looking man approaches you. He puts his hands on your shoulders. He explains that he is your life coach and that you owe him $800.

Such is the InfoWars I envision: An infinite virtual surface teeming with ads. Not just ads, but scams! Not just scams, but lies with no object, free radical misinformation, sentences and images so poorly thought out that they are unhealthy even to view for just a few seconds. The InfoWars of old was only the prototype for the hell I know we can build together: A digital platform where, every day, visitors sacrifice themselves at altars of delusion and misery, their minds fully disintegrating on contact.

With this new InfoWars, we will democratize psychological torture, welcoming brutal and sadistic ideas from everyone, even the very stupidest among us. It will be like the Manhattan Project, only instead of a bomb, we will be building a website. 

The InfoWars of tomorrow will converge into a swirling vortex of content about content, talent acquiring talent, rings of concentric media mergers processing all human artistry into one endlessly digestible slurry. This will be a dank, sunless place, one where panic and capital feed on each other like twins in the womb of a hulking, unknowable monster—a monster known by many names, but which I like to call modern-day America.

All of this is to say that I believe in us. I believe that with the new InfoWars, we can alchemize the pioneering spirit of amateur inquiry, the profit-maximizing drive of corporations, and the cold mental clarity that comes only with disciplined daily ingestion of mind- and body-altering chemicals. If we can do that, what other great things can we do together?

I don’t yet know, but I’m excited to find out. Welcome home, warriors. The future belongs to us. We’re writing the story now. It’s going to be a long one, and it’s going to be a bad one.

So settle in. Make yourself comfortable. Buy a tote bag. 

Nothing can stop us now that we’re in charge of a website.

Infinite Growth Forever,

Bryce Tetraeder, CEO, Global Tetrahedron
