** Mansharamani Musings
------------------------------------------------------------

September’s assassination of Charlie Kirk was a major moment in American history. I usually insist on waiting for some period of time before commenting on big developments, to gain additional perspective…but in this case, I couldn't help myself and posted my thoughts within 24 hours. I received more (mostly positive) feedback to “Speech Isn’t Violence; Violence Isn’t Speech ([link removed]) ” than I have for any other piece this year. If you haven’t read it, I’d encourage you to do so and would appreciate your feedback.

I also commented on developments at Cracker Barrel, President Trump’s visit to the United Nations, and our seemingly inevitable trend towards increasing polarization. Please note that I’ve reintroduced reader polls in some of my pieces, so please be sure to share to vote and see the results!

SEPTEMBER 27, 2025

Two years ago I wrote an article entitled, “Global Multilateralism is Dead.” ([link removed]) The piece generated a lot of feedback, most of which was negative. Former colleagues from academia reached out to suggest my views were not helpful and global organizations stopped inviting me to speak at their gatherings. But the years since I penned the piece have delivered plenty of evidence that the arc of history is bending away from global multilateralism…

SEPTEMBER 20, 2025

September 11, 2001 was a horrible day in US history when thousands of innocent Americans lost their lives as the result of brutal terrorist attacks. But from this tragedy emerged unity. On September 12, Americans put aside differences, came together, and stood united in the face of adversity. If there was a single moment that captured this unity, it was when, after a joint press conference on the steps of the U.S. Capitol, Republican and Democrat members of Congress spontaneously started to sing ([link removed]) , “God Bless America”.

Such unity is, at best, a distant memory. In the twenty plus years since, our country has been engaged in conflicts that don’t seem to end, a mortgage crisis, a pandemic, record inflation, spasms of political violence, exploding polarization, and now, political assassinations…

SEPTEMBER 11, 2025

The news that Charlie Kirk, a young conservative activist, was shot and killed ([link removed]) while speaking at an event in Utah was shocking. This tragedy is the latest in a rising tide of political violence that has swept the United States.

In just the past year, in addition to Kirk’s murder, a man shot and killed ([link removed]) a Minnesota legislator and her husband and wounded another legislator and his wife; someone broke into the Pennsylvania’s governor’s mansion and set in on fire ([link removed]) , forcing Governor Josh Shapiro and his family to flee; and then former president and presidential candidate Donald Trump survived not one ([link removed]) but two ([link removed]) assassination attempts. Violent political protests have also become a regular feature of American politics, often involving destruction of property, hospitalizations, and clashes between opposing sides...

SEPTEMBER 7, 2025

I have been a regular and public opponent of DEI ([link removed]) , ESG ([link removed]) , and anything else ([link removed]) that leads to a misdirection or hijacking of corporate purpose. All these efforts, I believed, are part of the “Woke” movement that prioritized equality of outcomes over equality of opportunity, and demanded that capitalists be deprioritized, if not punished.

After the Bud Light fiasco and resulting backlash a couple of years ago, it was clear that the Woke fever (something I had likened to a mania and popular delusions I had studied during my research into financial bubbles ([link removed]) ) had broken. The mania, which reminded me of the Salem Witch Trials and the Tulip Bubble, seemed to have reached its limits…

** NAVIGATING UNCERTAINTY
------------------------------------------------------------

As many of you are aware, I’ve returned to writing my weekly newsletter and have been pleased by the rapidly growing interest in my thoughts. As I have in the past, I’m addressing a wide range of topics, ranging from geopolitics and economics to social trends to technology. The overall theme of my work is focused on “navigating uncertainty” and how a generalist approach can help us all make sense of what seems like chaos.
