It's The Artificiality, Stupid
Hot And Not In The New Trans World Order
In The Merry New Land of Trans
A little over a year ago, we could see from the numbers that Pandemic-era malwords-- characterized by the insatiable lust by our rulers and elites to LOCK everything DOWN, had entered Post-Curve phase (https://malwords.substack.com/about), and that the New Normal was pretty much here to stay despite our own best efforts to pretend it had left town.
Turns out we were just passing through a Potemkin village on our way to the Merry New Land of TRANS, characterized by the insatiable lust of our rulers and elites to eliminate all BORDERs-- between sexes, countries, currencies, diseases, political parties, passports, legalities, jurisprudence, etc.-- and usher us into a world of MACHINE-, ARTIFICIAL everything.
With the help of our readers, we quickly re-evaluated, re-purposed and expanded the Global Malwords Index (GMI) into a volume-weighted composite of the Top Forty terms both covering and weaponizing the new TRANS era.
And a year in here we are: the new TRANS GMI has nicely reached cruising altitude, with the telltale advances and pullbacks of a hot new cryptocurrency. After yet another steady climb we have seen things take a breather, but we could be due for an increase as DOJ bulks up for yet another wave of J6 arrests.
The New Artificiality
Drilling into component Primary terms, we're seeing nothing short of a re-ordering of these malwords in real-time as the New Normal has been replaced with the New Artificiality
On a volume basis we've seen the same:
CHINA, dragged down by its ARTIFICIAL economy, has been knocked off its perch at #1 on the charts by
AI (ARTIFICIAL Intelligence), which has shot up from #4 to take pole position.
BORDER-- an ARTIFICIAL construct that no longer exists in the physical world, has moved seven notches to move up to #3.
Meanwhile UKRAINE, a country whose regime is being ARTIFICIALLY propped up by the US like another South VietNam, has taken two steps back to #4.
CLIMATE CHANGE--that ARTIFICIAL lab-produced existential threat-- has dropped four places to #10.
And DEMOCRACY-- that ARTIFICAL construct of liberty and justice for all--remains unchanged despite the manifold THREATS, most recently from WHITE RURAL MALES.
And now for a word from our sponsors in the real world…
Returning to our previously unscheduled programming…
Week's Movers: Artificial Pregnancy
Keywords spiking this past week include IN VITRO (10 yr avg 1.91 WPM) was up to 24.3 WPM on the liability suddenly placed on In-Vitro Fertilisation (a kind of ARTIFICIAL insemination) providers who damage embryos in transit.
And UNCOMMITTED (10 yr avg 0.3) was up at one point to near Primary term level at 93.3 WPM. For years the term has been used to disparage men in the dating market. We haven't heard of UNCOMMITTED delegates since Gerald Ford was president... and Joe Biden was in his first term in the Senate. Not really here, just ARTIFICIALLY so.
Last Word: PUPPET
Speaking of which, the rah-rah annual sales kickoff session now known as SOTU left no one convinced that what we are seeing onstage is not leadership. Rather what we are being presented with is an ARTIFICIAL construct, a PUPPET show.
PUPPET has been bouncing along forever in the single digits in the news corpus, with the predictable collocated term SHOW (+/-4 LU) tagging along.
But in the last year a strange thing has happened: REGIME has replaced MASTER as the #2 collocated term with PUPPET. Drilling down into the articles, most of these instances are in the context of UKRAINE. But increasingly a PUPPET REGIME describes what the vast majority of Americans--MAGA, moderate, independent, liberal, and middle class Democrats-- are now living under. And the State of the Union put the cherry on that.
We'd like to see our REAL, not ARTIFICIAL rulers-- Obama, Kerry, Susan Rice, Soros, Klaus, Xi, Jeff Bezos, Larry Fink, the IC, Skull & Bones, whoever-- people who can like Putin actually string together intelligent sentences that tell us what they've gotten done, what they see as important, and how they are going to move the ball forward--or backwards--over the next year.
It would really help for Mom and Dad to tell us where we are going on vacation so we kids can know what to bring.
But they won't. Because these rulers are clearly afraid. Either of us, or of telling us where this is all going. Making them more than Oz-like dictators. Prompting the New York Post to scream "HE'S ALIVE!" Even Kim Jong-un knows you have to appear in front of your subjects and give account for yourself. And now you don’t even need to need speaking skills, and it’s okay to fall down on the way out.
These people can’t even bring themselves to do that for the taxpayer.
And as long as they don't, their media mouthpieces and true believers hollering CONSPIRACY theory, threat to OUR DEMOCRACY, COVID, science, election DENIER etc. will just have to fuck off.
This is the price of ARTIFICIAL reality, folks. Of governing by ARTIFICE, and not the good-old fashioned art of talking to all of the people, all of the time.
For the better half of his administration, we were told that Trump was a DANGER TO DEMOCRACY because he was controlled by Vlad Putin--he was an ARTIFICIAL, illegitimate Russian PUPPET. But now our lying eyes all but shout that Trump was replaced by a PUPPET regime in an ARTIFICIAL election.
So could it finally be that ARTIFICIAL intelligence--like all those reliable all-electric vehicles stuck on the interstate in a Buffalo blizzard-- is poised to lose its shine, just as our national and natural stupidity becomes all the more jaw dropping?
About Malwords
Malwords are keywords weaponized for information warfare. They function within public discourse as intellectual malware, verbal viruses designed to spread quickly for the purposes of a) silencing dissent through control of language, narrative, and speech, b) increasing public tolerance for government-sanctioned atrocity and c) emboldening officials to commit acts of atrocity.
Malword strength is measured by their frequency of appearance in the published body of language (corpus), and expressed in words per million (WPM) linguistic units (words, numbers, symbols, acronyms, etc).
Malword WPM’s typically follow a three-phase lifecycle: Pre-Curve test-markets the new term and puts up the store front; Curve, is launch phase, characterized by a rapid, exponential liftoff and sudden plunge; Post-Curve is a long, asymptotic tail and is the period in which primary-objective atrocities are implemented.

It's a pandemic of borderlessness, Shep. If we can't fix natural stupidity, how can we be expected to deal with artificial intelligence?
Your ink barely got dry before they came out with two more words for the illegals..."newcomers" and "non citizens", citing they are due our respect.
