Hat tip Yarvin’s butterfly revolution. 1. Get the oligarchs on side, and threaten any Republican traitors with big money primary opponents ✔ Done. 2. Defund the left. Under way. Notice how, once Musk seized the inner sanctum at USAID, the Democrats found themselves unable to put a river of meat on the streets. It looks like the microphone for which a thousand shills were the loudspeakers was located there. Their …
How to make peace in the Ukraine
The Ukraine war is existential for Russia and Russians. Russia has no natural borders, and a long history of the unpleasant consequences of having no natural borders. America’s natural borders are the oceans, and it takes a very dim view of hostile foreign powers on the wrong side of the ocean. Monroe doctrine, Cuban crisis. The Cuban crisis nearly went nuclear, and the Ukraine is likely to go nuclear if …
Autogolpe
I generally do not report on, nor pay attention to, the latest news of the day, because it is best understood years later, or centuries later. And I tend to discourage conversation about such news, because it is noise. The shills send in piles of links to latest noise, and I silently delete them. But the meaning of Trump 2.0 now becomes apparent. So this post is going to be …
Trump thunderbolt of 2025 January 27
With two hundred thunderbolts coming from the president in a week, it is easy to overlook this one in the noise, but he has just struck the heart of the enemy. OPM, the HR of all HR, from which all HRs everywhere in the Global American Empire ultimately derive their power is, as they say in their post on r/fednews, being dismantled. “The non-political civil servants here at OPM are …
Marc Andreessen does not get it
The progs believe that Marc Andreessen is the primary ideologist of the tech oligarch wing of the Trump coalition. This is an odd delusion. Under the New York Times new policy of listening to their enemies for a change, the New York Times interviewed Mark Andreessen. Andreessen is a natural born Havel’s Greengrocer. There is not a political thought in his head. Political thoughts continually explode out of Musk, who …
Days of Thunder
Trump’s inauguration was shock and awe. In his speech he echoed Oliver Cromwell’s address to the Long Parliament, the first Thermidor in the history of English speaking people against the first left singularity. Did he know he was echoing it? Has he been at the history books? Probably at least some of those around him have. But Oliver Cromwell’s coup against the long parliament was only the beginning. Cromwell had …
Know your enemy, know yourself
you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle. Because the Woke do not comprehend anything outside their bubble, they drift uncomprehendingly towards war. Because they do not comprehend anyone outside their bubble, they drift towards a …
Condition of the Maidan regime in January 2025
On available data, it looks as during this war, and in the lead up to this war, the Maidan regime recruited and conscripted about two and a half million men. The regime says the current size of its army is nine hundred thousand men under arms, but it looks more like two or three hundred thousand thousand men under arms, because the Russian army has seven hundred thousand men under …
Pete Hegseth gets it, sort of.
A state exists because its army exists. States exist because armies exist. A state needs a faith, and an army needs a faith. There is always a state faith. And starting with Obama, the faith of woke is currently being imposed on the army — a faith incompatible with the army’s core function, which efficiently killing people and breaking things. It is also incompatible with war production, or production of …
How to make peace with Russia
Firstly, America cannot have peace with anyone until it has a sovereign who can say “war with the outgroup” and every member of the ingroup is at war, or imprisoned as a traitor, and can say “peace with the outgroup”, and everyone in the state apparatus is at peace with the outgroup, or gets sent in chains to the outgroup. All our previous living arrangements with India, China, and Russia …
