“The Spell of Action: a Táo De Physics 2.0?” by The Angry Buddhist

Just in: "James Ordóñez has written a howling, profane, and desperately sincere work that attempts something audacious: to prove that the same dialectical mechanics of karma described in the ancient Upanishadic Puranas produce political cults (Trump/MAGA), religious cults (ISKCON/Hare Krishna), and the collapse of the quantum wave function. The thesis is either brilliant or insane, and Ordóñez doesn't care which you think.

The book opens with two "Poster Children"-Trump's political cult and the ISKCON Hare Krishna movement as a religious cult. The personal stories are harrowing: a young man beaten nearly to death with an ax handle while a Swami cheers, child abuse victims "punished" by their abusers in a court-approved fund dispersal. Ordóñez writes with the rage of someone who escaped.

But the book is not merely an exposé. It argues that cults are expressions of a universal dialectical mechanism—the Hegelian triad, which the Puranas call karma (action). Everything is Consciousness measuring itself into Quantum's temporary forms: (Shaktis/forces) waves or particles, electrons, galaxies, species, civilizations, nations, cultures, tribalism, cults, and the sociopathy that adheres them all to the madness and the mayhem.

The Puranic science is dense but accessible. The author's voice will alienate as many readers as it energizes. But alienation is not failure. Ordóñez is writing for the trapped.

If you are inside a cult—political, religious, corporate, workplace, or family—you will see yourself here. If not, you will see the machinery behind the madness.

Recommended for cult survivors, ISKCON members questioning their leaders, cult members in general, and anyone who has wondered why smart people believe stupid things in groups, like the paradox of MAGA or the Hare Krishnas' Flat Earth."

Solar power is the cheapest form of electricity to set up in most parts of the world. Tariffs are paid by U.S. importers, who pass along the costs to consumers. And noncitizen voting is extraordinarily rare.

These three statements are facts. You can verify them by looking at scientific research, listening to experts or just reading reliable news outlets.

Recent polls, however, show that substantial numbers of Republican voters simply don’t believe these statements. That’s bad for the country, because it’s harder for us to solve problems and decide how to move ahead when we can’t agree on the facts. It’s also bad for Republican politicians — and they have only themselves to blame.

Led by President Donald Trump, many members of the GOP in recent years have made their case by attacking the underlying facts, making baseless claims and undermining the credibility of independent experts who could contradict them. The result is a party that is increasingly out of touch with voters outside its ideological bubble and unable to come up with good arguments or practical solutions.

Just look at the numbers:

In a January poll by Morning Consult, 51% of Republicans said tariffs are a “fee foreigners pay for selling products to the United States,” while 38% more accurately said they are “a tax on foreign products that Americans buy.”

In a March poll by the Pew Research Center, 43% of Republicans said that solar power is more expensive to consumers than most other energy sources, while only 24% said that it’s cheaper.

In an April poll by Ipsos, 82% of Republicans said that large numbers of noncitizens cast fraudulent ballots in U.S. elections, compared to just 38% of independents and 18% of Democrats.

The sheer number of Republicans who believe things that aren’t true distorts the political landscape. As problems arise, they effectively box Republican politicians out of making certain arguments or trying specific solutions. When Trump’s broad-based tariffs lead to increased prices, how can Republicans in Congress push back if their own supporters don’t see the link?

The party can’t make good arguments or put forward solutions unless it’s grounded in reality.
