The current collapse of the Haitian government is accompanied by absolute chaos and destruction. Although the current viral video of gang cannibalism has been "debunked" by various sources, said debunking is apparently relies on a finding that it was actually a few years ago; and of course they've stopped doing such things.

One presumes that sudden dietary delicacy hasn't in fact become a widespread thematic in what President Donald Trump notoriously referred to as the "shithole country" that makes up the eastern two-thirds of the island of Hispaniola, just under 1,900 miles from the United States.

Nearly two thousand miles of ocean doesn't seem to have hindered the 130,000 "encounters" with them at the US-Mexico border alone over the last two years.

Fine people, no doubt.

This said, the current rising warlord Jimmy Chérizier- who goes by the rather apt nom de guerre of "Barbecue" - has succeeded in throwing the entire nation into violent anarchy, and his government into complete disorder.

There are parallels worth paying attention to.

Once a State destroys its own legitimacy through failure to maintain safety and security, sustenance and provision, and identity and meaning for its people - complete collapse is all but certain.

It is not a slippery slope, but rather models itself after the crash of avalanche; identical in physics to what Sun Tzu referred to as "the onrush of a conquering force" in Tactical Dispositions from The Art of War:

"The onrush of a conquering force is like the bursting of pent-up waters into a chasm a thousand fathoms deep."

It is simple enough to witness this same catastrophic, massive slide in action towards overwhelming crash in the United States. From the commercial carnage of American rail cargo to its spreading urban drug apocalypse, one does well to consider several questions.

1. How's your public safety?
2. How's your food security?
3. How's your national pride?

As we head to the 2024 Presidential elections, it's not difficult to envision further collapse precipitated into open civil strife.

After all, the "mostly peaceful" protests in the George Floyd riot did over $2 billion in damage.

The Company defines a dread lord as one who has absolute power of life and death within his reach.

You can define reach how you like. And while semantic arguments can be fun, the collapse of nations is not.

We suggest you remove your blinders, and start seeing what is observably taking place around you.

There are those who work night and day to expand that reach, and you are already well within it.
