Breached Enclosure and my other books that follow it describe a world in which the ruling class is a new aristocracy (Curtis Yarvin uses the term “liberal oligarchy” and others use other terms, but the name doesn’t matter) and where it is significant that the new aristocracy behaves quite differently from the previous power elite that dominated the Western world until the 1980s. Even though they come from the same families as the previous elite, they are psychologically different, make decisions in different ways and form different types of relationships.

Of course, we cannot situate such changes in history with complete accuracy. We find remarks about the formation of a new power stratum in the sociological literature from the 1950s onwards. But it was not until the 1980s that it became totally dominant.

This is the environment I try to analyze in my books. I write there that one day such an arrangement will collapse and the power elite will be replaced by another power elite. But I see it as something indistinct in an indeterminate future.

And it’s here! As I wrote yesterday, “On the stage next to Trump, we see the state as the largest owner. Owners who personally run their companies. And the top executives? You could find them around Kamala Harris.”

That doesn’t mean total change. It means conflict between social classes that have comparable power. Let’s not forget that Trump did not win by more than two percent in any critical state. If he had a power supermajority behind him, he would have won by 15% Last year, all it would have taken was one stupid mistake at the end of the campaign (or one better aimed bullet) and President Harris would be issuing decrees today. Still, absolutely dramatic shift from the past.

We see a huge difference between the US and the EU, where nothing has changed about the super-power of the new aristocracy. And it is even more different in the UK, where some of the power has been taken over by the Muslim community and is probably irreversible.
An opportunity for another book? Not yet. For a lot of things I would have to admit that they are just my guesses and hypotheses. The situation is new. Society is on the move. There are no studies to fall back on. But overall, it’s a more optimistic world.
