Iconomy

(composite from the greek words, icon-iconic meaning image-imaginary-virtual and economy)

Iconomy is a state where certain "financial tools" (derivatives/futures-options-cds etc), leveraged credit and uncontrolled increase of money supply, altogether sum up to a matchless value chaotically multiple of the total value of all fixed assets, properties and commodities reserves of the real economy

Credit expansion obtained by financial institutions generating "vitual assets" and investment potential in bureaucratically created financial tools, void of any real or productive value, is a prominent form of Iconomy

Grindset

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.

“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
