Jesus as game theory: In a world of imperfect information, one tit for two tats. Old Testament marriage and family law as game theory: If you are stuck with with each other, the deal is going to generate value even if the value very unequally distributed, but if not stuck, prisoner’s dilemma. Negative sum actions are likely to be individually beneficial. It might seem obvious that if everyone could correctly …

American logistic capability
American GDP is fake and gay. American GDP is for the most part not riggers in red states lifting steel, workers on the assembly line, cattle ranchers raising cattle, nor even truckers, warehouses, and shops moving goods from where they are made to where they are used, it is people in blue states doing business in permissions that allow riggers to lift steel and ranchers to raise cattle. American GDP …

We have received two huge benefits from the Ukraine war. One is that when Putin intervened in the Ukraine conflict, the Global American Empire everywhere overnight stopped enforcing worship of the awesome and mighty covid demon. The public announcements that masking and jabs were compulsory continued for a while, but everyone ignored them, and gradually they are stopping. Kind of like everyone started ignoring female emancipation when they tossed it …
Still fighting 1913 war in the information epoch
Military summary channel gives daily reports on the war in the Ukraine. His account is one of continual struggles for high ground and observation points, with Russians advancing over low ground at high cost to grab a high point. Wagner’s movie of the war depicting one small but horrific battle for one small observation point. (hat tip Kunning Druegger) This account is fictionalized but was produced by people who waded …
War and Covid
Russian invasion of Ukraine caused an immediate relaxation of the enforcement of Covid worship. Russian annexation of portions of the Ukraine caused immediate abandonment of enforcement of the jab on international travellers. The signs were still up, the announcements were still coming over the loudspeakers, but no one checked my jab status. At one border I was theoretically tested for infection, but not in fact tested. This is prep for …
He votes, counts for nothing
He who counts, counts for everything. Voting is over. Elections are over. The Republic is over. The time of Republics has passed, for a republic requires a virtuous elite, yet undermines elite virtue. Thus Republics are always short lived, and their endings dreadful. The time has come once again for a King appointed by God, and for an army to march to holy war under the banners of Christ.
Art of War in 2022
War matters, so promoting this conversation to a post. Mister Grumpus asks: > The narrative is shifting to the Russians managing to muddle through anyway, and the blue-and-yellow Ukraine flags have all but vanished from Twitter. Ukraine has been attempting World War I tactics, which worked great for a little while, but they are starting to run out of troops willing to fight. Currently it is World War I, which …
Russians stupidly and stubbornly persisting with World War II Blitzkreig in the Ukraine
They attempted a blitzkrieg to surround and cut off the “city” of Severodonetsk A tiny insignificant city about twenty five blocks by fifteen blocks. The city center consists of a supermarket, a couple of gas stations, a couple of auto repair shops, a car accessory store, a food takeaway shop, a bank, a nail salon, a hotel cafe, a pub, and a remarkably large number of government offices. The town …
Russia halted in the Ukraine.
This is not exactly defeat – Russia has grabbed a lot Russian speaking Ukraine territory, and has connected the Crimea to Russia by land. It has also inflicted huge costs on the GAE, the Global American Empire, or rather it has provoked the Global American Empire into inflicting huge costs on itself. You may have heard that the Russian financial system is in chaos. Nope. The Russian financial system is …
War and the gay parade
His Holiness Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia has given a sermon that reduced numerous officially unofficial mouthpieces of the Global American Empire’s officially unofficial state religion to incoherent rage. The war in the Ukraine is a holy war – not because Putin is holy, but because the unofficially official state religion that seeks to rule the world is unholy. The proximate cause of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was …
