this isn't new. the courts of europe and asia have utilized astrology for thousands of years. i wouldn't be caught dead serving an emperor that doesn't define all state policy on the basis of jupiter, the planet.

I think it's a new level of simulacrum, at least for my youtube feed of various Guys.

1st level - our perception/representation of space objects

2nd level - those ancient global astrological traditions where they have some real sociocultural function for a specific group, but the functions and logic differ group to group

3rd level - new age western astrology that mashes all of those together into semantic algebra while still pretending it's sacred in some meaningful religious way

4th - stripping any pretense of sacredness away from that to make it a geopolitics youtube gimmick alongside AI images of crystals and vaguely mythological/scifi things, distilled nonsense slop.

Maybe there's a whole community of it that I only just now poisoned my algorithm enough to see, but this is the first Scary China Picture Video I've seen which mashes up these specific things in an internally-coherent way. Every other Geopolitics Guy on my youtube feed who wants to differentiate himself just wears a suit in their bedroom. This is like the first time I saw Qanon, within a few days of it appearing on reddit, and thought it was neat that so many toxic trends were converging into one thing meant to hypnotise a stupid person.
