Technocracy vs. Capitalism | Two Competing Economic Models

In this episode, I continue my ongoing series on Technocracy, which is extracted from my recent book THE COMING WORLD NATION. The focus of today’s discussion is on comparing and contrasting capitalism with technocracy. In particular, I argue that capitalism and democracy are products of the pre-industrial and pre-scientific ages and thus require fundamental reforms before they can integrate science and technology optimally. The result of these reforms brings us to technocracy, which aims for a scientific, energy-based approach to resource allocation. Key topics in this discussion include: the inherent inefficiencies of current economic models; the inherent shortcomings of bureaucracies; how technocracy emerges as an innovation to both; and how the true vision for technocracy can’t be achieved until the classified science held within America’s black projects underworld is released. 00:00 Introduction and Overview02:36 The Emergence of Technocracy06:34 Technocracy's Unique Economic Approach11:45 Technocracy vs. Bureaucracy20:24 The Future of Governancewww.alexsachon.comthewisdomtradition.substack.com

The Twin Births of Technocracy (Esoteric vs. Exoteric)

In this episode of the Wisdom Tradition Podcast, I pick back up in my investigation into the emergence of technocracy and share a new excerpt from my book “The Coming World Nation,” which examines the issue from a new angle.In the first reading from this chapter that I shared a couple months ago, I introduced the concept of technocracy and explored how my take on it differs from that of every other scholar and analyst in the field. In my view, there are two dimensions of the technocratic movement - an original legacy version that is highly advanced in its understanding of Energy and Space, and a secondary version that is comparatively primitive, as it is locked on the level of scientific materialism.In Part 2 of this chapter, which I’m sharing today, I further unpack this idea, noting how technocracy has two distinct emergences: an original one that emerged in the late 19th-century (but which remains concealed), and a secondary one that emerged in the 1930s and which has evolved in time to eventually influence the rollout of the Great Reset in 2020. The UFO mystery is the best indicator we have that the first (and older) technocratic institution exists. The modern technocratic ideas behind Great Reset are completely ignorant of the existence of the science and technology behind UFOs, suggesting that there is a concealed aspect of the technocratic revolution that has not yet surfaced or been formally integrated into the global technocratic transformations now taking place (such as the rise of digital currencies, robotics, AI, and digital ID systems). When it does surface, the power of the science and technologies it possesses will transform the trajectory of the “Great Reset” in profound ways. Before we jump into this discussion in this episode, I provide some updated thoughts on the Charlie Kirk assassination and also introduce a new book on Manly P. Hall titled “10 Essential Lectures by Manly P. Hall: Abridged, Annotated, and with Commentary” (which is now available on Amazon; see my website www.alexsachon.com for the link).Table of Contents:00:00 - Introduction and Summary of My Theory about the “Technocratic Superstate”06:15 - Updated Thoughts on the Charlie Kirk Assassination13:16 - New Book Announcement: 10 Essential Lectures by Manly P Hall17:25 - The Twin Origins of Technocracy

Adam Trombly and the Classified Science of Etheric Energy

One of the most important scientists of the past 50 years is a man that no one has heard of - Adam Trombly. He was a pioneering physicist and engineer who followed in the footsteps of Nikola Tesla and designed a successful "over-unity", "zero point energy" power generation device. If this technology would have been allowed to be released to the public, the entire global economy would have been radically transformed. But instead, his work was confiscated and his research shut down by an invisible power structure (one that I call the Technocratic Superstate in my recent book "The Coming World Nation") In today's episode, I break down a number of excerpts from a 4-hour interview that Trombly did about 15 years ago on Spectrum Radio, where he talks about his life, career, and experience in having the government shut down and confiscate a breakthrough energy device he invented, which could have solved the world's energy problems. The information that Trombly shares about his life story offers us valuable insight into the underground black projects apparatus that underlies that US military-industrial complex. It is very hard to get information about this highly-classified black project underworld, with Trombly providing us rare and important details about it through his series of encounters with it over the years.Table of Contents:00:00 Introduction to Adam Trombly09:11 Adam Trombly's Upbringing and Father's Mysterious Death21:42 Adolescence and Star Child Program31:31 Military Industrial Complex and Secret Physics41:57 John C.

I’m excited to announce that I just dropped a new book on Amazon! It’s called 10 Essential Lectures by Manly P.

Hall "Study Guide" series. The written article that this podcast is based on is available to read at thewisdomtradition.substack.com.

What John Mearsheimer Gets Wrong about the US-ISRAEL Relationship

In this episode, host Alex Sachon critically examines key points made by US foreign policy expert John Mearsheimer in his recent interview with Tucker Carlson. This interview focuses partly on the current situation in Gaza and partly on the perplexing nature of the US-Israel relationship. While Alex appreciates Mearsheimer’s detailed historical analysis of Israel’s motivations for its policies toward Gaza and his deep knowledge of the U.S.-Israel "special relationship", he fundamentally disagrees with Mearsheimer’s nation-state-centric approach and his emphasis on ideology as the main driver of U.S. foreign policy. Instead, Alex argues that only by understanding the U.S. as a global empire—driven by control, centralization, and technological dominance—can we make sense of its actions in the Middle East. The discussion highlights both the strengths and limitations of Mearsheimer’s perspective, offering a broader framework for understanding current events.Table of Contents00:00 – Introduction: Framing the Debate03:32 – Clip 1: The U.S. Foreign Policy EstablishmentAlex critiques Mearsheimer’s focus on ideology and the nation-state, arguing for a broader model that distinguishes between America as a nation-state and as a global empire.04:34 – Clip 2: The U.S.-Israel RelationshipMearsheimer discusses the influence of the Israel lobby and U.S. military support. Alex agrees with the factual analysis at the nation-state level but insists the real driver is the empire’s need for control, not just lobbying or ideology.08:33 – Clip 3: The Two-State SolutionMearsheimer claims the U.S. wants peace and a two-state solution. Alex strongly disagrees, arguing that ongoing conflict serves U.S. imperial interests, especially regarding the petrodollar system.10:24 – Clip 4: The Greater Israel Project and Ethnic CleansingMearsheimer details the historical roots and current execution of the Greater Israel agenda. Alex praises this clarity but adds that the American Empire’s structure enables these dynamics.17:58 – Clip 5: Why Israel Wants GazaMearsheimer explains the strategic and ideological motivations for controlling Gaza and neighboring regions. Alex acknowledges the accuracy of the historical analysis and adds economic and geostrategic factors.22:57 – ConclusionAlex summarizes the need for a more dynamic model of American power to understand Middle East geopolitics and global events.Send us a text
