TheAltWorld US Military’s “Project Meridian” is a Symptom of American Decline, Not a Solution
▪️Sec of Defense Pete Hegseth nominates 3 unqualified, demonstrated failures in the realm of geopolitics and military capabilities to guide the US into the future military superiority;
▪️If the US already was militarily superior and actually dominated in the either technology or military power such a project would not be necessary in the first place;
▪️US decline is owed to 2 systemic problems “Project Meridian” neither acknowledges nor poses a solution to: the unsustainable and unnecessary nature of pursuing primacy in the first place, and the equally unsustainable nature of for-profit systems competing with purpose-driven peers like Russia alone, let alone China;
I will do a deep dive on this in the coming week.

Appointed to Project Meridian…
Elon Musk, the only technical-minded of the 3 appointees, excels in a very narrow field of expertise and has demonstrated an inability to grasp the multidomain nature of modern and future geopolitics/warfare.
Just think about the vast chasm between what he said was going to happen back during the 2024 elections and what has happened in reality…
The fact he accepted this position speaks volumes of his ignorance – accepting a task that is literally impossible to perform (like DOGE) – unless he accepted it simply to get his nose in the trough of public funds this all leads to.
As for Palmer Luckey of arms startup Anduril – his drones and other systems have been proven failures both in Ukraine and Iran.
Is he included as an example of how not to fix the problem?
Newt Gingrich is an aging politician with zero background in military, technology, or innovation except for being part of the very system leading to America’s terminal decline for decades in the first place.
