Kali Yuga, the dark age in the cycle of ages, appears in 20 posts between 2019 and 2024, a few of which are really about the NFT firm Yuga Labs. GritCult uses the idea for a cyclical and mostly optimistic view of history: things get worse, then a golden age follows.

His core claim is that darkness is a phase. "A golden age follows a Kali Yuga", he wrote in 2020 [1], and he describes the age that comes next, the Satya Yuga, as one of truth and righteousness, ushered in by Kalki, the "destroyer of darkness" [2]. The pandemic turned this into a forecast. His most retweeted post on the subject, "WHAT FOLLOWS A PANDEMIC IS A RENAISSANCE", argued that "AFTER THE KALI YUGA... THE DARK AGE, THERE IS A GOLDEN AGE. WHERE MAN BECOMES PRAGMATIC AND EUDAIMONIC" [3]. He repeated the pattern in 2023: "Every plague and pandemic in history is always followed by a renaissance age." [4]
He refuses the gloomier readings. Answering the popular cycle of good times making weak men, he wrote that "Strong men always exist even in a down turn kali yuga age" and that "nobility is never lost." [5] He calls it the age of chaos, and treats chaos as something to greet rather than fear: in March 2020 he met talk of disaster with "Kali Yuga upon us? Its lit." [6] He even casts himself, half joking, as part of the cure, saying he is "here to usher in a generational wave of positive to end the Kali Yuga" [7]. He does concede that the turn takes time: "It gets worse before it gets better." [8]
Recurring themes
- cyclical history
- renaissance after plague
- nobility in every age
- chaos as opportunity
- optimism as a mission

| 16 November 2019 | 14 | 100 | By the End of Kali Yuga, the population of the whole world will be so much reduced to animalism that there will be no more power to understand what is God, or what is spiritualism. So at that time, there is no other alternative than to kill them all. | ![]() | View |
