Choisir le pire pour nuire aux autres : une stratégie qui se retourne vite…

11/08/2026

Julian Assange is pointing to a form of conspiracy that emerges from our existing system rather often.

In complex systems, outcomes often follow incentives more reliably than intentions. If large institutions, contractors, financiers, political actors, and entire sectors of the economy benefit from the continued flow of military spending, reconstruction contracts, arms sales, intelligence operations, and geopolitical instability, then conflict itself becomes self-reinforcing as it drives wealth for the most powerful.

Billions leave taxpayers' pockets. Trillions move through governments, defense contractors, banks, investment funds, energy interests, and corporations connected to the machinery of war. The enemies and narratives might change, but the underlying economics stay about the same.

From a systems perspective, the most important question people need to be asking is why the system we have rewards the continuation of conflict. When political power, corporate profit, media attention, career advancement, and strategic influence all increase during periods of conflict, the system will produce these outcomes. Outcomes that very few want, yet that benefit the powerful.

When this happens, narrative through media and social media then becomes the tool to not only mask this cycle but get the consent necessary to continue it.

This does not mean every conflict is manufactured per se - some certainly are though - but it's important to note the system itself incentivizes the conflict.

This is why the question of who benefits financially long term is a big question when it comes to war.

Is it possible to tell the absolute truth and still be lying? Why are the most convincing deceptions the ones that are almost entirely real?

The closer to the truth, the better the lie, and the truth itself, when it can be used, is the best lie.
- Isaac Asimov

Known as one of the Big Three science fiction writers of the 20th century, Isaac Asimov was also a professor of biochemistry. He possessed a rare ability to dissect complex systems, whether they were biological, robotic, or social. He wrote or edited more than 500 books, covering nearly every category of human knowledge.

His insight here reveals a profound psychological reality. A blatant lie creates friction; it invites scrutiny and demands evidence. But the truth is smooth. It passes through our mental filters without resistance. When someone uses a fact to anchor a false narrative, the mind accepts the narrative because it cannot deny the fact.

In a world of information overload, the most dangerous weapon is often not the fake story, but the true story told with a hidden agenda. Asimov understood that the most effective way to lead someone astray is to give them all the right pieces so they build the wrong picture themselves.
