#DOGE was clearly a psyop with multiple effects:
1) Made anti-state Bitcoiners and libertarians worship the state again
2) Deconstruct failing control mechanisms (USAID) and replace it by a modern technocratic control system (Palentir)
3) Harvest government data to feed in the new system (Palentir).
The 180 isn't bizarrely, its the logical step after the psyop is completed.
