    Is Elon Musk Possessed By Demons? | LIMINAL NEWS Essay
    May 6 2026

    What if Elon Musk is possessed?

    This video essay examines the unsettling, dissociated facial expressions Musk made during his stint as Trump's chief buddy at the White House and Mar-a-Lago — and what they reveal about a crisis the materialist worldview can't explain.

    When Musk fed USAID into "the wood chipper," Bill Gates told the Financial Times: "the picture of the world's richest man killing the world's poorest children is not a pretty one." Musk was unmoved. He had already gone on Joe Rogan to declare that "the fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy" — borrowing the Canadian marketing professor Gad Saad's notion of "suicidal empathy."

    https://substack.com/home/post/p-195999100 Part Two

    Drawing on the cultural philosopher William Irwin Thompson, the analytic idealist Bernardo Kastrup, the sociologist Peter Berger, and the 2022 and 2025 Nobel Prizes in Physics — which together overturn the materialist paradigm at its foundations — this essay asks whether what we are seeing is what older traditions accurately called demonic possession, and what it means for understanding our techno-fascist moment.

    In an age where the boundary between the physical and the psychic is dissolving, where ketamine-besotted billionaires play god with our economy and our information environment, are we witnessing what Thompson warned of three decades ago: a screeching breach through which the demonic re-enters the world?

  • The Rise And Fall of David Wilcock | LIMINAL NEWS Essay

    The Rise And Fall of David Wilcock | LIMINAL NEWS Essay
    May 5 2026
    What happens when the grift consumes the grifter? In this video essay, I examine the suicide of David Wilcock — bestselling New Age author and a central figure in what's now called "conspirituality" — and what his collapse reveals about a culture sliding toward collective psychosis. Within days of his death, conspiracy theories began circulating through the same alternative-media ecosystem he helped build. I don't believe he was murdered. I think he killed himself. But that reflex — to turn every event into proof of a hidden war — is precisely the pattern Wilcock spent decades cultivating, and may be part of what ultimately destroyed him. This video is adapted from my Substack essay: https://danielpinchbeck.substack.com/... Drawing on my brief overlap with Wilcock, as well as the work of David G. Robertson, I explore how figures like Wilcock built mass followings through a mix of mysticism, fringe science, and conspiracy — and how these belief systems sustain themselves, even through failure. This essay asks a deeper question: how do we remain open to genuine mysteries — consciousness, psychic phenomena, the limits of science — without slipping into delusion? And in an age where every event is absorbed into the narrative, is it still possible to think clearly… or has the grift already won? #LiminalNews #DavidWilcock #Conspirituality #QAnon #NewAge #Disclosure #AncientAliens #DanielPinchbeck #ConspiracyTheories #UFOs #Gnosticism #DavidIcke #CoreyGoode #EdgarCayce #CulturalCritique #VideoEssay #Documentary #SocialCommentary #MediaTheory #Philosophy ================================== Please subscribe to the Liminal News Substack Newsletter! https://substack.com/@danielpinchbeck Please buy my books! https://tinyurl.com/mrsmtpwv Please join my online seminars and community at THE LIMINAL INSTITUTE: www.liminal.news Instagram: @danielpinchbeck Official Website: www.pinchbeck.io/

  • David Z. Morris | Sam Bankman-Fried, Effective Altruism & the Ideology Behind FTX

    David Z. Morris | Sam Bankman-Fried, Effective Altruism & the Ideology Behind FTX
    Feb 11 2026

    In this episode of Liminal News, I'm joined by journalist and author David Z. Morris, whose book Stealing the Future examines the rise and collapse of Sam Bankman-Fried — not just as a crypto scandal, but as a warning about the belief systems driving Silicon Valley power today.

    We explore how effective altruism, longtermism, and utilitarian ethics became moral loopholes — allowing fraud, deception, and massive harm to be reframed as "ethical" actions in service of an imagined future. This conversation goes far beyond FTX. We talk about crypto's real and fictional use cases, AI as a quasi-religious project, elite networks of protection, stimulant-driven grind culture, and why figures like Peter Thiel loom so large in today's techno-authoritarian landscape.

    👤 Guest Bio: David Z. Morris is a journalist covering technology, crypto, politics, and ideology. He is the author of "Stealing the Future", an investigation into Sam Bankman-Fried, effective altruism, and the techno-utopian belief systems reshaping Silicon Valley and global power.
