Promethean Overviews • The Black-Pilling of America: How to Escape the Trap of Fear
AI, migration, war, and population decline are fueling a culture of permanent fear. Mike Steger reveals the roots of black-pilling and how faith, hope, and love can overcome it.
Will artificial intelligence become an instrument of surveillance and control, or will it help drive American reindustrialization, advanced manufacturing, and nuclear energy development?
Mike examines the apocalyptic warnings coming from AI executives, the Malthusian roots of population pessimism, President Trump’s response to migration and war, and the worldwide collapse in fertility rates.
The antidote to black-pilling is not naïve optimism. It is a culture rooted in faith, hope, love, and mankind’s God-given ability to build a better future.

Bessent explains Wall Street, the financial press, and Democrats keep being proved wrong—contrasting Canada’s job losses with a blowout U.S. jobs report, calling out FT/WSJ panic, and framing a Red Queen economy that must outrun debt, China, and skills gaps.
