One of my biases is in my hatred of institutions.
Many of you have heard me say, “The institution you trust has already betrayed you.” I believe that.
This belief, which I have much evidence for, informs much of what I do, say, write, and think.
The institution will not:
- protect you
- uphold your values
- preserve its ideology
- maintain its product/service (they don’t make them like they used to. I’m looking at you Vatican II and Redwing.)
I could go on. Institutions in the West are busted. Broken. Managerialism, progressivism, Taylorism, behaviorism, and many other isms have made it impossible to scale an institution beyond 5 critical people without it being corrupt and working contrary to it’s stated mission.
