Beyond The Matrix: Stop Spiraling, Start Building

6min Read | Watch | Listen

Hey there Visionaries!

Just crawled out of bed after a few days of processing and being out of commission.

My body said stop. So I stopped.

No NyQuil to power through. No masking symptoms with drugs & alcohol like I used to. Just listening. Resting. Letting my system do what it needed to do.

That's the difference between operating from an old program and running new software.

Which brings me to what's actually happening right now.

Why You Should Give All the Cares:

• Information Control Just Broke: New tools are shifting power away from gatekeepers

• The Super Bowl Psyop: Division by design, and why you saw it coming

• Beyond The Matrix: Your exit sequence from overwhelm to agency

The Information Gatekeepers Are Losing

For centuries, someone else decided what you could know.

Religion decided what was sacred and what was heretical. Governments classified what you could see. Media outlets became the arbiters of truth, mostly using that position to omit, conceal, and provide cover.

The strategy was simple: control through obscurity. If people can't access the information, they can't challenge the narrative. If they can't connect the dots, they can't see the pattern.

That era is closing.

There's a new tool about to go public called Webb AI. It's a closed AI system, meaning it only processes the sources you feed it. No hallucinations. No outside contamination. No institutional filter.

You upload the material. It reasons through it. It shows you the connections. It sources everything in real time so you can verify the logic yourself.

And it's open source. Anyone can download it. Run it locally. Connect whatever AI models they want. Start building their own research library.

What used to require institutional access, professional training, and months of labor can now happen in hours. A question that would take a journalist weeks to investigate can be answered in seconds, with receipts.

Independent journalists streaming live are about to answer questions in real time with sourced, trackable reasoning. Whistleblowers will be able to make their case without needing a media outlet to amplify them.

This is what open-source journalism was always supposed to be.

Gary Webb tried it in the 90s when he broke away from corporate media exposed the source of the crack epidemic and used the internet to publish without a filter. James Corbett has been doing it for 15 years, showing the model works if you're willing to let the public see your sources.

Now the tools are catching up to the vision.

But here's something you can use right now:

Absolute genius move by Riley Walz and Luke Igel. They vibe-coded a Gmail clone, then casually dumped the entire Epstein document archive into it. Including the newest drop.

Easy to navigate. Fully searchable. Zero excuses.

The gap between those who understand this and those who don't is about to widen fast. If you're avoiding these tools because someone told you they're unethical or dangerous, you're choosing to stay blind while others gain vision.

What the heck do we do about all this?

So you watched Bad Bunny and Kid Rock play their parts.

You saw the Epstein documents get dropped, then buried under Super Bowl coverage.

You watched foreign wars get memoryholed while everyone argued about halftime shows.

And you're sitting there going, "I see it. I see all of it. Now what?"

Because that's the trap, right? You spent years learning how the system works.

Reading the documents. Following the money.

Connecting the dots between corporate interests and policy decisions.

You can spot controlled opposition from a mile away. You know when information is being obscured on purpose. You've watched them do the same playbook over and over: create division, control the narrative, keep people fighting each other instead of looking up.

And now you're exhausted. Not from not knowing.

From knowing too much and not knowing what to do with it.

Look, I've learned something after 20 years of this.

You can't vote your way out. You can't protest your way out. You can't post your way out.

The system isn't broken. It's working exactly as designed.

So the question isn't "how do we fix the system?"

The question is "how do we build something better that makes the system irrelevant to our daily lives?"

That's a completely different game.

It means stopping the endless scroll through doom content and starting to build actual infrastructure with actual people. It means taking the energy you're putting into being outraged about the Epstein files and redirecting it into making sure your family has food security.

It means watching them manufacture division at the Super Bowl and responding by strengthening local bonds with people who actually show up.

It means seeing through the information control and then using these new tools to process what's real, what matters, and what you can actually influence.

They don't want you to figure this out.

Your attention is the product they're harvesting.

Every hour you spend doom-scrolling through corruption documents is an hour you're not spending building parallel systems. Every night you lose sleep over what "they" are doing is a night your nervous system gets more dysregulated and less capable of taking effective action.

Every conversation you have about how bad things are getting is a conversation you're not having about what you're building instead.

I'm not saying ignore what's happening.

I'm saying stop letting it run you.

Know what's true. Process the information. Then turn it into fuel for building something they can't touch.

That's what Beyond The Matrix is actually about.

Not waking you up. You're already awake.

Helping you turn that awareness into agency instead of anxiety.

12 weeks to install a different operating system, one that lets you see clearly, think straight, earn outside their rails, and build with people you trust.

Book a 20-minute call if you want to know if it's right for you.

Or don't.

Keep watching the show. Keep waiting for someone else to fix it.

Your call.

Tech corner: video generation wave

Music and video generation just got another huge bump up.

I came across a Dragon Ball Z Kung Fu Generation video with the new Seedance V2 model.

AI Voice is now indistinguishable thanks to eleven labs.

The line between AI-generated and human-created is gone if you didn’t notice.

I've been having fun creating viral posts this last week.

Over 7 million views on content I've put out.

I'm considering putting on a workshop about how I've done this and how to vibe-code landing pages. Get them up fast. Share truth. Get above the noise.
