Did a 10km fartlek run today under the heat of the sun and went on bigger strides for the fast runs. I can feel the spike of my testosterone at the end of the run.
While running, I was reflecting on the idea of Machiavellianism. I never heard of it before not until 2026 and for a few months now I kept seeing this on social media circles.
Turns out that Machiavellianism is a form of a political realism. No wonder why a lot of my perspective is the same with Machiavellianism but I don’t want to identify with this form of political philosophy.
I would say that my approach to the world is a multidisciplinary one and indeed it is a mix of political science, history, religion, psychology, social science, international relations, political realism, stoicism, Islam, game theory, theoretical computer science, algorithms, computational complexity theory, and intelligence analysis.
I will never be a Machiavellianist. The better description to my multidisciplinary approach to the world is Strategic Systems Thinking.
