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 is the HR department, not the trucker.

America produces about a hundred and fifty tomahawk missiles a year. Russia has expended about five thousand or so similar missiles in the Ukraine. Nato is running out, Russia does not appear to be running out.

America’s largest and most capable aircraft carrier is the Nimitz. Built in 1967. Maintenance and repairs are piling up. The Navy has been trying, and failing, to produce new ships for some time, with the result that America’s fleet is shrinking, while China’s grows. The Navy cannot build what it used to be able to build, and cannot maintain and repair what it inherited. The Navy suffers the same disability that NASA suffers. How much of the stuff on the Nimitz is still in order suitable for use in battle?

The Nimitz can deliver that many missiles in a week. But how many missiles does it have to deliver? It was built for an America that could mass produce stuff like that. This is not that America.

The most important, powerful, and effective weapon in the US arsenal is a fifty year old plane firing seventy year old cannons scoured from museums and looted from ancient forgotten overseas arms depots.

In the conflict over the Ukraine, the hollowing out of western industrial capability is showing up.

Right now China could sink the Nimitz. It is in range of Chinese hypersonics at this moment. But order to sink it, it has to be able to see it. War in the Pacific is likely to lead to war in space – in which Musk is the superpower, though since much of his assets are in space, he is very much opposed to space war. America leads by far in space based observation capability, thanks largely to Musk’s ability to lift stuff. But to remove other great power’s capability for space based observation may require assistance he is likely to be reluctant to provide. But he may not have much choice with all his ground assets US based.

Russia and China have crude satellite weapons. But the winner in a space war is likely to be whoever has greater capability to lift stuff to orbit.

All Global American Empire approved political candidates are saying “Russia will be defeated”. You should not want to defeat a nuclear power. You want to push it into an unfavorable deal with military pressure. Which is what the US has been doing for eight years in the Ukraine, except for the deal part. They seem congenitally unable to make a deal. Defeating a nuclear power is likely to become unpleasant. If no deal eventually nukes.

What happens if Nato goes directly to war with Russia?

Well, most of Nato lacks actual soldiers, as became amusingly apparent in the Serbian wars. As I am fond of saying, Britain has a hundred generals, but can only put a hundred boots on the ground. The US has actual soldiers, or had, the number is rapidly diminishing. Probably some Nato countries have actual soldiers. The Ukraine does have actual soldiers, having conscripted just about everyone. Right now they substantially outnumber Russian soldiers in the Ukraine. But they are dependent on Nato logistics, and Russian shells clearly outnumber Ukrainian shells. Direct Nato involvement will not help much with the logistic crisis.

Reagan’s strategy for defeating the Soviet Union was logistic exhaustion, to bleed them in a hundred little wars. That worked, and today the Global American Empire strategy is the same: “Russia is a gas station masquerading as a nuclear power”. This time around however, does not look like it is working. “Russia will be defeated” rests on the claim that Russia is rapidly exhausting its stockpiles. Maybe, but they are not acting as if they are exhausting their stockpiles.

Some time ago the Ukraine tweeted a chart supposedly showing Russian stockpiles and weapons production. According to that chart, they should have run out quite some time ago. Global American Empire quasi state media have been reporting for months that Russia is about to run out. They are drinking their own koolaide.

A few days back, Russia started using what it calls “end guided bombs” to good effect, though it would be more accurate to call them bomber launched glider drones. Obviously these are not coming from its stockpiles. Further, bomber launched glider drones are a more effective, advanced, and modern weapon that what the USA calls end guided bombs.

Some time ago the west decided to send its highly advanced tanks to the Ukraine. These wonder weapons would make short work of the Russians, we are told. They have not arrived. I conjecture a conversation took place that went something like

“How many tanks do we have ready to roll?”

“Well, when they arrive in the Ukraine, certain maintenance procedures will be required, and we will have to make arrangements for those maintenance procedures to be deployed in the Ukraine”

“How long will that take?”

“Well, we are having some delays in deploying them here.”

Perhaps I am being unduly cynical, but the west has a whole lot of warplanes that are “not full spectrum combat ready”. Perhaps it has a similar problem with tanks. The Global American Empire military industrial complex is in the same pickle as Nasa. It has a whole lot of enormously impressive terrifyingly powerful stuff lying around from the days of half a century ago, that it can no longer make, maintain, nor competently use. Exhibit A being the Nimitz and the space shuttle engines. The US Navy is not rapidly shrinking because of budgetary decisions to shrink it. They budgeted to expand it. It is shrinking for the same reason as Nasa was begging the Russians for lifts to the space station. They tried to build warships, and just failed. Tanks and warships are a similar technology. If you cannot build warships, maybe you are only pretending to build tanks.

It is hard to say, for the first casualty of war is truth, but the way the wind blows now, it is not Russia that is running out.

This is related to an earlier post on the fakeness of American GDP afflicting American consumers. Used to be that every moderately competent, moderately industrious, man could afford a home, a garden, children, and a stay at home wife. Used to be that American shopping centers looked like shopping centers for rich people. Now they look like shopping centers for third world people. I was very recently in a big top end third world mall. Looked very nice. On the whole, wealthier, more attractive, and more comfortable ambiance than what I see around here, though most people in that town do their shopping in places more typically third world and Singapore has much nicer places. But if you look at a nice shopping center in Singapore, and what you can find in America, it is like night and day. Singapore shopping centers imply a considerably higher quality of customer than American shopping centers. A typical Chinese restaurant just has a nicer ambiance than the typical American restaurant, the typical Chinese car is nicer than the typical American car, and the typical Singaporean car is way nicer.

They say the pleasant and beautiful old malls disappeared because of economics. Could not compete with Walmart prices. Maybe, but outside the Global American Empire, and on its periphery, I see pleasant and beautiful malls going up.

    Let us begin with Buddhism, which will be our comparative case for constructing our framework in this essay. Buddhism is the oldest organised religion in the Dharmic civilisational tradition (one could make the case for Brahmanism, but its codification was achieved only in the Manusmriti, after centuries of development, and centuries after the ‘founding’ of Buddhism; ancient Aryanism before the codification of the Manusmriti should be compared to the shamistic-animism of the greater Indo-European tradition, gradually transforming into universalist deistic philosophy, as it also did in Greece

    The Iranian foreign minister … also strongly criticized the continued ban on female education in the country – which Iran has repeatedly listed as a condition for its recognition of the interim government.

    “You dirty Afghans are breeding like rats and flooding our country with drugs and hungry refugees, so trust us, your fellow Muslims, when we say you need to send your daughters to school. That’s the path to sterility, I mean, prosperity!”

    China called for “a political settlement that includes an inclusive government,” at a meeting to which, as best I can tell, no Afghans were invited. Everyone present sounds like a Harvard professor.

      > Being from a smaller community, often times solidarity is more important

      Sikhs have always historically considered themselves as part of a broader dharmic coalition. Whether you identify as Hindu or not is a non issue.

      What globohomo has done is to turn a part of your community into a victimhood card carrying minority and which is exactly what I pointed out and you became aggressive towards me at that point. The Indian secular state is bad to Sikhs but infinitely worse for Hindus, but globohomo is even worse at this stage.

      Any alliance with globohomo will turn future generations of Sikhs into gay soyboys. Whereas under a broader dharmic coalition Sikhs will remain autonomous and retain their traditional identity.

      If you are genuine about your stated position on dharma, you need to think of long term implications.

      • Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

        There is no ‘secular state’, in Bharat or otherwise, without the GAE in the first place. It’s hard to see how this point can be failed to be appreciated.

        • Dharmicreality says:

          This is not something I deny. The Indian secular state is evil but behind globohomo on many aspects of prog and Hindu nationalism, however imperfect, has pushed back on some aspects of globohomo. I consider mainstream Hindu nationalism as weak sauce. But that is what hurts GAE and why minorities are being weaponized against Hindu nationalism. As Jim says, GAE fears a nuclear powered Hindu nationalist India. Even if that Hindu nationalism is somewhat bluepilled.

                  Sure, and part of putting that house back in order is noticing that certain castes are far more degen & have been for millenia.
                  Rather than, an ideological shift GAE or liberalism is rule by certain castes over others.

                  In that sense, DharmicReality even worrying about politics or commenting as an equal is part of the problem rather than the solution.

                  Thus, pointing out that he’s a blackfella is a very valid criticism. It’s saying his own ethnic grievances & inferiority complex leave him unable to comprehend the reality – that, not only Sikhs but most NW feudal tribes have turned against the state.


                  He refuses to state whether he’s even a North or South Indian. In a caste/tribal society anonymity is the recluse of a charlatan.

                  He has no business worrying about the North because even speaking to him about it violates purdah (veil).

                  For all intents, and purposes he’s’ a dalit.

  6. C4ssidy says:

    design plan for a centralised version of a “trust network” inspired algorithm to complement a small content-sharing website:

    The random content on your feed will prioritise people you follow, second priority the people who you follow follow, then the people who they follow, etc , ad infinity, perhaps weighted by some kind of declining fraction series, so a random seed number multiplied by the declining fraction based upon degrees of separation

    In your options settings you can set the relative weights for each degree of separation and also individually for each person who you follow and for anyone they follow within the infinite series (you can view any username plus their degree of separation and their calculated content visibility weight) and for collective groups that they follow ie by degrees of separation from them . You can also choose to factor in the weights which other people you follow have set when deciding the likelihood of showing something from someone they follow

    Something similar for content “likes”, but again the weights of your likes and the weights of likes of people you follow themselves adjustable

    By default everyone follows the admin, and since I would have liked good content, they get good default content, but they can also unfollow the admin and get whichever bubble they are looking for (though never a fully sealed bubble unless they perhaps set every weight to zero pass a certain degree of separation)

    The random numbers, weights, and seed type numbers required would be done openly in javascript, so verifiably no shady activities with the algorithm even if I wanted to. In addition the entire network of usernames and their connections and their set weights would be public and downloadable by anyone, so even if the original website was subverted, anyone can continue the open system somewhere else

    Blue tick equivalent. You can give extra weight to the blue ticks , which by default will be high since it is hard to shill with paid accounts

    If a group makes a large number of accounts and they add each other, blue tick or not, and they end up close to you in degrees of separation, you’d want the system to adjust so that they do not take over, which should be as simple as having an open formula and letting you tweak every dial. Only one person needs to get it right and people would gradually follow him (plus assigning weight to his weights in their own feed) to start getting good content again by latching on to his own effort

    • jim says:

      That is very much what I had in mind. (With, of course, identities that are not readily traceable to people whose faces can be whacked in with a rifle butt.) Everyone runs his own trust network, which, because each network trusts other networks, becomes effectively one big trust network. Most people, being lazy, just trust someone and follow his trust network.

      Linux is effectively one big trust network, and the problem with systemd is that it is a big monolithic lump of trust in an otherwise well distributed network. Open Source plus Git is both a piece of software created by an engineer, and an instrument of cooperation created by a tech priest. Linus created Git to give useful effect to the faith of Richard Stallman. (Though these days musl is now superior to libc)

    • Aryaman says:

      Yes that would be good, the weights would be the eigenvalue centralities of the network from each users’ own view (thus, rank is not where a random surfer is at any time, but where a random surfer starting from you is at any time). And the setting would be a diffusion parameter like in pagerank, but the diffusion step wouldn’t be jumping to a random node, but a random node among those you follow.

    • Carte Blanche says:

      Long-tail algorithms run into the trust-relevance problem: should the system prioritize the month-old post from your best buddy, or the zero-day post from his friend’s boss’s gardener’s daughter? I use freshness as the canonical example of relevance here, since social media is usually chronological, but the problem is equally relevant to e.g. a search results page.

      The solution — to the extent that the problem is solvable at all — always relies on algorithms with fuzzy criteria. Complex, multivariate systems are inherently unpredictable, and in the case of social media, usually easy to abuse because of the low cost of trial-and-error. Exponential decay doesn’t “solve” the problem, only gives a variety of ways to mask it.

      It’s utopian fantasy to believe that throwing Granny and Griller (to say nothing of Shaniqua and Shitavious) into a pilot’s cockpit of bewildering knobs, gauges and other controls and leaving them to land it on their own is going to produce any kind of positive result. Equally utopian to expect that the ones who do it competently will “win” and gain the most followers; trusting the wrong pilot or surgeon means death, but trusting the wrong influencer has no serious penalty. There is a penalty to the network and the network’s reputation, but since the individual followers feel only a tiny sliver of the pain, they have no incentive to manage their personal networks properly even if they have the ability, which most don’t.

      The Linux developers of 30 years ago believed in this essentially Communist ideal that the laboring masses could learn to use powerful but highly complex tools effectively. They were wrong. Only programmers and sysadmins used the Linux of 30 years ago, and only the very competent among them. Today Linux has a wider audience but that is partly because over the last 15 years they’ve made tradeoffs to improve usability, including some very unfortunate moves toward centralization.

      For an operating system like Linux, a high barrier to entry is not a problem. For social media, where the value of the network is largely dependent on the popularity of the network, a high barrier to entry is death. Maybe it could work in a particular niche, like “social network for programmers” or “social network for priests” but you could not make it a viable competitor to Twitter or Facebook without dumbing it down.

      The way to dumb it down and still keep it secure is to use first-degree trust only (you see the posts of people you trust, and people they repost) or restricted second-degree trust (you can see all of the content of people you trust, and only the direct content of people they trust). That means you might not have as much content to publish in any one person’s feed, and it may not look or feel as impressive, but it is much more secure against abuse.

      The abuse you need to guard against is a spammer setting up a throwaway/bot account and being able to spam most of the network through a popular account. If a popular account gets compromised then you are vulnerable no matter what; a more troublesome vector is getting into the trust network of a popular account, either directly or (much worse, very easy to exploit) indirectly through some less-popular account that the popular account trusts.

      In other words, don’t allow a million users to get spammed because a popular user made the mistake of trusting a spammer; and definitely don’t allow them to get spammed because the popular user trusts another non-abusive user who made the mistake of trusting a spammer. Spam is not just a nuisance, either; because people are stupid, being able to spam large parts of the network means being able to control large parts of the network, and if you don’t believe that then just go on Discord and look for all of the messages from accounts that got “hacked” because they clicked on the “Free Nitro” spam.

      I think that “the public” cannot be trusted with arbitrary degrees of control over trust levels. They can’t even understand the exponential growth of degrees-of-separation, never mind the interaction of those exponents with exponential decay functions. What normal people do understand is the small-scale model of community trust: you trust your friend Bob, and he may refer you to his friend Alice or occasionally quote her, but unless you explicitly decide to go meet her yourself, you won’t hear anything directly from her. This is how our brains are naturally wired and it is (probably?) how a secure social network should work. We just don’t really want to hear from strangers, even if they’re technically friends of friends.

        The primary purpose of my content sharing website is creation rather than sharing. The created stuff (the nature of which I am currently jealously guarding) could be exported and shared in any of the traditional social media or communication platforms, however there are some good reasons why it would be fun to browse the archives directly . It is stuff suited for sharing publicly in the manner of Reddit and YouTube. The “feed” is therefore not critical to functionality but if users do want to browse I want to at least produce something better than the horrors of reddit style upvotes, let alone the quite unspeakable things which would go behind the youtube frontpage. It does not even necessarily have to factor in time either. Ultimately if dials did not work I could even say “here is everything ever made on the site in order of incremental integer id” and accept that everything pass a point is Sybil-flooded, and give up and let traditional channels sort out the good from the garbage

        The main reason I am interested in Sybil resistance is actually that I want non-ai based tagging and annotations. Suppose I have a photo or video containing the Eiffel Tower, and one user tags the area in the image as “Eiffel Tower” and five bots tag a link to free nitro. I obviously do not want to sort those tags by popularity, or for the computer to choose a “real” tag based on that. But it could present a series of tags and if the ui is simple enough even a normie could contribute something towards the sorting of true labels from false. If the solution exists it is perhaps economics-style curves where individual clicks can produce a measurable effect without having conscious knowledge of the process it feeds into

          An interesting space that I’ve worked with in the past before AI was an option — unfortunately, not with a lot of success beyond the conventional designs. I wish you luck. Maybe your proposal will work well in that space.

          The only thing I have to add about tagging specifically is that while your regular average Joe is good at “identification” style tagging of things — “this is a photo of a cat / the Eiffel tower / etc.” — he is atrociously bad at “category” style tagging of concepts like “this is a video about home improvement / baseball”.

          I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen a truly successful attempt at community-curated taxonomies. Stack Overflow (a programming Q&A site, for those who aren’t familiar) tried this and ended up with endless holy wars over the tags, and despite those holy wars, most questions still suffer from the most basic problem of insufficient and overgeneralized tags. Categorizing means abstracting things into concepts, and abstraction is, apparently, a high-IQ activity.

        They are not on their own. Ninety nine percent of users will not be using, will not see, all those knobs, gauges and buttons. They are going to leave them at default. But high popularity influencers will probably be twiddling them like mad.

        The ordinary user has other people following him, in which case they see what he posts or reposts, and can click on the threads of which those posts are part. But he does not generate a feed that third parties can follow, equivalent to automatic reposting, and if he attempts to to do so, then he is going to see all those knobs and buttons, and probably run away.

        The ordinary user will get a feed generated by the algorithm, just as he does on YouTube and Twitter. But, unlike YouTube and Twitter, the algorithm is running on a system he controls, and he can modify it, assuming he can read and write source code, which he probably cannot, so he will probably leave it alone, and not even realize it exists.

        I don’t see a problem. Only people who are following the popular user are going to get spammed, whereupon he suddenly becomes unpopular should he fail to swiftly shut it down and prevent it from happening again. It is like people taking over the Linus Tech Tips YouTube account to tell people that “Musk is offering to double your bitcoin, just send all your bitcoins to this address.” It happens. So what? Linus Tech tips apologized profusely and improved their security practices. It was not the death of YouTube, and it was largely irrelevant to YouTube’s security practices (which are very bad, but only in boring routine familiar ways.)

        It will happen, people with big followings will improve their practices. Big mailing lists get hijacked or corrupted all the time. Has not killed off email.

        • Carte Blanche says:

          If your premise is that spam and other forms of abuse are fine — or just some necessary evil that can’t be effectively contained — then not much that I say is going to matter. However, I think you’ve made a few (unintentionally) false analogies and as a result misrepresented my description of the problem.

          The example given here is a popular YouTube account being hacked. This is materially different because:
          – Followers of Linus Tech Tips will know immediately that what they are seeing is spam because they know what to expect from his channel, just as you would recognize if a Pod Person showed up at your home disguised as your brother.
          – YouTube has a centralized, algorithmically-controlled flagging system to quickly identify spam and suppress abusive content. Being centralized, bad actors naturally sought to control it and now they do control it, using it to eliminate any content that is politically inconvenient or insufficiently woke. But it is still reasonably effective at curtailing spam.
          – YouTube also has a centralized account recovery process to quickly restore control over the account to its rightful owner. Even if the flagging system did not exist, the account owner would realize this quickly and act to recover his account.
          – The popular account itself getting hacked was never the problem in the first place, it’s the ability of spammers to spam indirectly through the popular account, by being in the trust network of that account. That is much easier and cheaper to do than taking over the popular account, and doesn’t require anyone to have weak security.

          Also as I previously stated:
          – Spam is not just spam anymore, it is increasingly an attempt to gain control over some portion of the network, and once entrenched it becomes extremely difficult to excise. Discord and Twitter are probably both irrecoverably corrupted.
          – An exponentially-expanding graph (with or without exponential weight falloff, as spammers can compensate for falloff by ramping up volume/frequency) allows a single spammer to “trust” a hundred other fake accounts and use that to completely dominate the feeds of anyone who is technically reachable through that graph.
          – If the UI doesn’t clearly communicate the “path” to some indirect content, then ordinary users may have no idea how or why that content is showing up in their feed and, even given the ability to block individual accounts, will struggle to keep up. This is a problem that’s solvable in theory but difficult in practice, as there may be multiple valid paths, and even a single path traversing more than one node is hard for grogs to understand.

          You can’t compare a hypothetical loosely-authenticated peer-to-peer social network that’s trying to get established with an already well-established centralized service like YouTube. Different constraints, different problems, and if you want to do away with the many problems of centralization (which I thought was the point?) then you have to find a way to solve the problems that centralization solves.

          Also can’t compare to email, or shouldn’t compare. The most popular email provider, with daylight second, is gmail, and the main historical reason for that is that Google’s anti-spam measures were superior to every other option at the time. Before gmail, email spam was an absolutely brutal problem, and still is if you own your own email server and fail to protect the confidentiality of your address. If overwhelming widespread abuse resulting in the de facto centralization of a de jure decentralized protocol is success, then I wonder what failure looks like.

          • jim says:

            > YouTube has a centralized … you have to find a way to solve the problems that centralization solves.

            The YouTube algorithm runs on YouTube, and selects content for everyone. Your algorithm will run on your machine, and select content for you. But they will be very similar algorithms, except your’s is open source, so you can modify it, or download someone else’s modification. The algorithm is theoretically secret, but can be inferred from the publications of people that Google subsequently hired, and from innumerable leaks.

            The YouTube algorithm collects information from everyone. Your algorithm will collect information from everyone you are following, but their machines have information from everyone they are following, some of which gets shared to your machine. The YouTube algorithm has a direct connection to everyone. Your algorithm will have an indirect connection to everyone, though it will ignore, or never bother seeking, information about people and posts too distant in the trust chain.

            And the guy you are following also has a centralized system of control. Difference is, he is the center, and it is controlled by secrets known only to him. The problems solved by the centralized system of control are largely created by the centralized system of control, which is a single point of failure, and a single point to attack. Your YouTube account is controlled by secrets known to you and to YouTube. (Which was the problem with the Linus Tech Tips hack. Linus complained that YouTube was not expiring and replacing transient high value secrets fast enough. It should not have had those secrets at all. The hacker intercepted a secret generated by YouTube, and shared with a LinusTechTips employee’s browser, a secret that Linus should have known YouTube was generating, but did not, or did not think about, and that the average YouTuber is unlikely to be aware exists.)

            > a single spammer to “trust” a hundred other fake accounts and use that to completely dominate the feeds of anyone who is technically reachable through that graph.

            Sybil problem. Routine and easily fixed. The solution to this has long been known. (Google became great by being first to implement the algorithm.)

            Suppose there are N vertices n degrees of separation from the user. Then we assign each vertex log N base 1.2 random integer values.

            Then we iterate replacing the values at each vertex with the average of the values of their edges (this is similar to the original Google graph analysis algorithm) Every few iterations we discard vertices that remain too distant from the user at the center, and rescale the values by a power of two. This has the effect that vertices that are connected to many vertices connected to you wind up close you, while a vertex that connects to a thousand vertices, none of which have any other connection to anyone except other spammers, remains near its original position and gets discarded eventually. The spammer account that connects to a million spammer accounts, none of which have any other connection to anyone other than other spammers, is going to remain nearly stationary under this algorithm and will stick out like a dogs balls, being discarded early in the iterations. Everything else drifts closer to you.

            YouTube and Google run something like this trust algorithm, with their moderators at the center. You will run this algorithm, with you at the center.

            Google became the top search engine by running this algorithm with pages as vertices and links as edges, to generate page rank. Still running it last I heard, with an ever growing pile of cruft on top of it. The cruft delivers very little value, but marketing people and censors keep having bright ideas to cruft it up. Often they break it, as tends to happen to YouTube.

        To exercise arbitrary control over trust levels, will have to write code. This is a lot bigger obstacle to entry than linux, where I can trust an arbitrary repository. The normal user control over trust levels will be that a user can click on a link that someone he is already following has approved, and can then click on all the links that it links to, which is not a problem. If he keeps on clicking at random he is going to hit spam, and then stop. In the course of his clicking around he may find some interesting posts, and decide to follow that guy also. And if a pile of spam approved by that poster then appears on his feed, unfollow.

          On this point I agree with you completely: being able to click through someone else’s feed to see whom they trust, and look at their content, and continue at will along that graph, is not a problem at all.

          That’s a “referral” system. Works great. Mimics normal human relationships and community trust networks.

          The problems start when the system begins to implicitly merge that indirect content into your own feed, before you’ve chosen to trust those second- and third- and nth-degree contacts yourself. That’s the system C4ssidy was proposing — at least, I thought it was.

      I would not consider anything more than two degrees of separation from the user.

      The people we follow, and the people they follow, are relevant to us. Going any further seems excessive and opening up to exploitation much more easily. Also hurts performance.
      In terms of content two degrees should be enough.

      Being able to see what our friends’ friends post is enough to give us *discoverability*, ie we can add those accounts, which we didn’t know of previously, and expand our network if we want to. In which case we will see their follows, which were previously three degrees away.
      It allows us to find new accounts we didn’t know of, but without being fed too much garbage we have little relation to.

              I disagree, Red, I think small arms are a huge factor in modern war, but they aren’t challenging due to availability, quality, and relative ease of scaling the requisite supply chain. This is not to say that tube artillery and guided missiles and small arms are at the same level, not at all, but in the context of Ukraine, a country that is and has been awash in small arms and plenty of ammunition, they are a kind of invisible factor.

              If/when we start seeing actual unrest, strife, and conflict in the Occident Proper, the combat will look mighty different between the US, awash in small arms and ammo, and Europe, a place devoid of any significant amount of either. Small arms will be a significant factor in a lot of ways. Let’s say you are Country R and you wish to support the local opposition to Country A; if A has plenty of weapons & ammo, just need to send advisors, heavy weapons, and cash. As well, the dissenters in A will be able to make their own weaponry if they can get the tools for fabrication. Country E, on the other hand, having no small arms culture and no real capacity to develop and maintain production with merely inputs, will be a much different situation.

              Another aspect is the affect, character, and resolve of the combatants. An occupying force made up of conscripts and “salary soldiers” will need the full stack of weapons, support, supplies, logistics, and guidance just to hold territory and patrol. An occupied force will use whatever is to hand to oppose the occupiers. So Occupy will have a shit ton of gack just to do patrols and set up FOBs (forward operating bases), while Occupied can make there lives a nightmare with the most rudimentary implements of war.

              In a peer/peer conflict though, you are absolutely correct. Though small arms are useful, they are hardly a factor *so long as they are a given*.

              • Red says:

                The only actual act of war in the US in the last 50 years was the OKC bombing. Note they used high explosives, not rifles. High explosives is what kills your foes. Small arms are mostly deterrence against goons and to kill niggers, not for killing your foes.

                Yes the US government wants the public disarmed but mostly so their low morale glowies can more easily abuse the public but the actual weapons of war have long been removed from the average man’s grasp. My point stands: with Modern warfare small arms barley matters.

                • Pax Imperialis says:

                  With so much stuff (government and corporate) just laying about in minimal security supply depots, you’d be foolish to dismiss what a group of men with small arms could loot (both with and without tacit approval by sympathetic grunts).

                  I’ve seen 155mm munitions just laying about in unlocked, (mostly) unguarded warehouses in the middle of no where. The sole warm body that I had to check up on was kicking the munitions around. That’s not even getting into private sector mining and farming warehouse security.

                  Small arms still matter, just not so much to kill as much as to protect supply lines. USG supply lines are not well protected. USG critical infrastructure is not either. If things break up in the US, expect small arms to play a big role because the conflict would quickly go primitive.

          >would have guessed the production could be retooled / repurposed eventually

          There is an old railroad locomotive factory that’s been retooled for 155 mm artillery shells now. Apparently that’s closer than switching over small arms ammo lines. They’re different things, you can make or reload regular ammo with hand tools and gunpowder, shells need high explosives and electronics in each housing. (Also, why lose the small arms production, although I’m long past trusting the gov to not be exactly that stupid.)

          Which illustrates the point Tree of Woe made a while ago, you can switch manufacturing capacity over faster than you can boot it up from scratch. Most famously with American auto plants converted to tank and plane production in WWII, but can be wider apart than that.

          Which makes outsourcing manufacturing capacity to a peer military competitor (China) really, really stupid. Losing steel and microchips for a little more shareholder value was always treasonous on its face, but even the consumer industries had indirect value.

          And the above is all best case, assuming competent white guys. Woke upper management, shaniqua team leads, and a general workforce of white guys who drank the kool-aid of liberal arts or business degrees rather than engineering or welding school makes ramp up even harder.

          A side note, I didn’t learn until this year from Ukraine war reporting that the US only manufactures a few hundred Tomahawk cruise missiles a year. And that’s all we’ve ever done, the number from 2006 was 500. You’d think they could ramp it up by copying the existing process, but they’re not. My guess is there’s enough competent legacy white guys in the existing line to keep it going, but hard to expand without putting Shaniqua in charge and watching it fall apart.

That position of the petrol dollar has been passively eroded for nearly a decade and actively being destroyed by US actions within the past two years under Biden via the humiliating, globally visible loss in Afghanistan where the fall of the GAE began to coalesce and via his trillion dollar plan to debase the value of the commodities market through EVs and green energy.

        The US has long been exporting inflation. It has recently doubled down on exporting inflation, resulting in shortages, notably in Britain, because prices are a lagging indicator of inflation.

        Talking about the fall of the US dollar makes the fall of the US dollar as the international currency more likely. We have more conspiracies than you can shake a stick at. There would certainly exist a conspiracy to get people to not talk about the fall of the US dollar.

          Please don’t take this response as a challenge. I looked up terms to assist parsing what you’re saying, and I think I got it, but I’ll not trot through my reasoning because if I’m understanding, good, and if I’m not, ignore.

          I don’t think the response is damage control + exploitation. I think this is a black swan for the IC. I’ve never come to a conclusion on Snowden. He seems like a progressive faggot, but who wasn’t back then, yeah? And if that was a “controlled release,” then why is he in Russia, completely side lined? So maybe he was a black swan for the IC also. I am not smart enough to figure out what the psyops are without Jim, Anglin, and the Regulars. My initial thought on this leak was “fake and gay,” but I’m not so sure anymore.

          All this to say, I think you’re right: the more important question is “who/whom,” as it almost always is. We’ll see what follows. Carlson weighed in tonight, and he’s also a black box to me. Sometimes I think he’s the Gen X Trump, other times, he’s so obviously controlled opposition it hurts. This is reality now: the superposition of trust, compromised and concrete, all at once, but we never get to inspect the box before a new one is introduced. We’re so back; it’s so over.

            Snowden is a fine guy. He sincerely believed the left’s depiction of itself. So he believed he would be supported, and loved, by the left. Surprise, surprise, he was not.

            The left says “We are fighting power”. Sincere leftists say “Hey, seems to get money, status, and fame, I will fight power also” Surpise!

              Snowden is a man of good who did righteous acts thinking he was serving progressivism. In that way he was pledged to Tash, but served the one true God.

            Challenge away, by all means. Using big words doesn’t mean that a man knows what he’s talking about, and as far as I am concerned, when it comes to regimeology we are all stumbling around in the dark.

            If the term you had trouble with was “worked shoot” — it doesn’t mean quite the same thing as “controlled release”. Worked shoots have a predetermined narrative without an actual script or only a loose script; the actors ad-lib most of it. The leak doesn’t appear to be a carefully-orchestrated conspiracy, I wouldn’t call it entirely fake and gay either, but there is still something very “off” about it to me.

            Why do leaks happen? Usually they are either accidental (lack of infosec) or from a whistleblower.

            Most corporate leaks are accidental; a low-level contractor running his mouth off at the bar to impress his friends or a girl he simps for; or a nerd with too much time on his hands decompiling apps and picking them apart for any mention of an unreleased feature. Accidental leaks are rarely denied outright, because that would be a felony; instead they’re “dismissed” in vague and legalistic terms, and the leaker is fired and/or prosecuted, constituting a tacit admission.

            Whistleblowing leaks are obviously intentional and the intent of the leak is obvious once the content is known. Snowden was upset that the US IC had set up a domestic program to spy on its own citizens. He thought it was important for Americans to know. I don’t think he particularly cared that they were spying on foreign countries, which is perfectly normal. Political leaks usually are denied because the information is potentially damaging — think of Her Nibs’s special email server — and the leaker is either not identified at all if the identity on its own would provide credibility, or not vigorously prosecuted because prosecution would serve as confirmation. Sometimes the leaker gets “unoficially” prosecuted, if you know what I mean, but the Snowden treatment is reserved for leaks that are both highly credible and highly embarrassing, too juicy to memory-hole.

            So in this instance we’re left with a conundrum. Clearly the leak was not accidental, that’s out of the question. Yet nothing about the leak itself or the response to it seems to add up to proper whistleblowing. The contents are not particularly damaging — far from it, in fact, the main narrative seems to me “check out how fearsomely awesome and competent our MIC definitely still is”. The leaker’s identity resembles that of an accidental leaker, just some low-level guy with no real axe to grind. Several of the IC’s media mouthpieces did initially claim that the leak was illegitimate… but then they went on to prosecute and arrest the supposed leaker, appearing to confirm the authenticity. The entire story is centered around the fact of the leak itself and not the contents of the leak which are boring.

            Nothing about it adds up, so the only rational conclusion seems to be that Mr. Leaker is either an actor or a pawn, and his handlers or winder-uppers wanted this “leak” to get out, and they want it to be seen as authentic, which, if true, likely means that only parts of it are authentic while the overarching narrative of fearsome awesomeness is fake and gay, otherwise why go through with the gayop instead of issuing press releases like usual? They want to push something that is at least partially a lie, but the people whom they want to convince are not buying the official propaganda anymore, so try to make it look unofficial but still accurate and show that unofficial truth agrees with official truth.

            The only potentially-damaging fact is having uniformed troops in Ukraine which is essentially a declaration of war, but that hardly seems worth the drama. The Russians already know that, and we know that they know it, and they know that we know that they know it. Karl Denninger might be able to get his panties in a bunch over it, as he always does, but I just can’t muster up the energy to care.

            If it’s not a gayop then I don’t know what their game is this time because it doesn’t fit any recognizable pattern of an authentic leak.

              The other possibility is he’s a white male in a job that’s required to hire obese stupid black women to run things.

                Not a possibility, a non-sequitur.

                DIE-YT can certainly explain how he got access to the information, but tells us nothing about why he would have leaked it, why it was leaked in the way that it was, or why the agencies and the media responded to it in the way that they did. I also don’t perceive any mystery around how he got access to the information or demands to know how. He was a member of the agency; he had access. DIE-YT is an unnecessarily complicated explanation for that which does not need explaining.

                Hanlon’s Razor is a good tool but it isn’t relevant here because I’m not ascribing anything to malice or stupidity, only pointing out the wild inconsistencies between the circumstances surrounding this “leak” and those of almost any other well-known and authentic leak.

                  >DIE-YT is an unnecessarily complicated explanation

                  It is not, in fact I would argue that it doesn’t go far enough in explaining just how bad the situation is. Which is why:

                  >In order to get things done the competent white male will be given far more access than he needs

                  Needs some elaboration on the how it fails to explain the scope of the problem.

                  >I also don’t perceive any […] demands to know how. He was a member of the agency; he had access.

                  Been hearing some of the documents where internal to CIA only. He would not have had access, or at the very least should not have had access due to compartmentalization. The wide scope of documents is evidence that a lot more was going on.

                  These documents where in and about SCIFs. The workforce in that environment is still largely White, male, and competent. The greatest cause for concern is typically the civilian contractors, but the contractors tend to be older (meaning more experience and competence) White males with some kind of prior DOD connection and more likely to have developed ideological convictions i.e. the Snowdens of the world. In other words, there is no localized shortage of competent White males because DOD concentrates them in Intel, IT, Infantry… or at least that’s how it has been in the last 45+ years. I find it unlikely he was given far more access than needed (on paper).

                  Jack Teixeira was a cyber transport systems journeyman. An IT maintenance guy whose job would entail working with ones and zeros at best. End to end encryption should have ensured he never understood what those ones and zeros meant. More likely he was in charge of physical maintenance like cable management. At no point does that job entail physical handling or viewing of TS documents. It also looked like many of the documents he leaked were physical copies he had picked up from the workplace, not freshly printed from digital files off a thumb drive. Considering the shear lack of measures he took to protect his identity, not even using VPN the idiot, this guy was no hacker wizard IT superman stealing info from the TC. Thus Jack was picking up physical copies left and right and no one was asking why… or even asking where did all the copies disappear to. TS document accountability, while not quite as stringent as rifle accountability, is still fucking policed to hell and back. It was obviously not being done at his unit. A unit that appears to be largely White.

                  This indicates lax standards… it is national guard after all (not surprising). Which points to leadership incompetence and basic sloth to walk over to the paper shredder (Yes, there are actual shredders that are supposed to be used) to dispose of classified documents or use the lockable file cabinet. Basic laziness is an actual problem in DOD proper which has to be constantly policed, even among competent White men likely due to them largely coming from high trust societies (small town America). A major problem in the reserves because idleness leads to a culture of low policing. This points to a much deeper problem. Why did DOD, who knows the reserves have these problems in spades, activate a fucking national guard unit just for Ukraine?!

                  It’s not that in order to get things done the competent White male was given far more access than he needed. It’s that in order to get things done all of the White males of poor discipline were given access as well. This means they are scraping the bottom of the barrel over a conflict America isn’t even directly involved in. That has some implications that I think are obvious.

                  Moving on.

                  >why it was leaked in the way that it was
                  >why he would have leaked it

                  Dude was an idiot who didn’t even attempt the most basic of OPSEC. The idiot needed his ego stroked, so he stroked it in the most idiotic way possible. By showing off to younger men/boys.

                  >why the agencies and the media responded to it in the way that they did.

                  Embarrassment and damage control. Also no small amount of ideological “It’s the RUSSIANS” causing self gaslighting. Hilarious if you think about it.

    He is nothing more than a shitskin Basil, and he’s been activated because the GAE is full court press on India right now as it is the last place for the West to supply Ukraine with the Soviet era tech and stocks needed to backstop an assault and the requisite defense (S-300 missiles in particular, but many other systems depleted) Everything else has been used up or is locked up in “enemy territory.” Expect the bipolar attacks to increase until the season breaks.

                  I know a case of Georgia being ruled by a woman once who went the tranny route of being “King”. But the country was only lost 20 years after her death to the Mongols after prosperity and flourishing in her lifetime:

                  Tamar was proclaimed heir and co-ruler by her reigning father George III in 1178, but she faced significant opposition from the aristocracy upon her ascension to full ruling powers after George’s death.

                  Tamar was successful in neutralizing this opposition and embarked on an energetic foreign policy aided by the decline of the hostile Seljuq Turks.

                  Relying on a powerful military élite, Tamar was able to build on the successes of her predecessors to consolidate an empire which dominated the Caucasus until its collapse under the Mongol attacks within two decades after Tamar’s death.

                  Of course she rebelled against the Headship of her Husband:

                  Tamar was married twice, her first union being, from 1185 to 1187, to the Rus’ prince Yuri, whom she divorced and expelled from the country, defeating his subsequent attempts at coup.

                  For her second consort Tamar chose, in 1191, the Alan prince David Soslan, by whom she had two children, George and Rusudan, the two successive monarchs on the throne of Georgia.

                  Yet was Canonized as a Saint and Heroine by the Georgian people and the Georgian Orthodox Church:

                  Tamar’s association with the period of political and military successes and cultural achievements, combined with her role as a female ruler, has led to her idealization and romanticization in Georgian arts and historical memory.

                  She remains an important symbol in Georgian popular culture and has been canonized by the Georgian Orthodox Church as the Holy Righteous King Tamar (Georgian: წმიდა კეთილმსახური მეფე თამარი), with her feast day commemorated on 14 May (O.S. 1 May).

                  Regarding Jim’s comment that what matters today are the Aryan castes-
                  I contend that in India this is not entirely the case. Some of the best and brightest of India are southern Indian Brahmins and South Indian non Brahmin dominant castes. They run the space program, the nuclear program, the tech companies and so on.

                  The South Indian top castes are vastly superior to true aryans like Iranians, afghans etc. Probably as a result of intermixing of the best of Aryan and Dravidian elite genes.

                  The Dravidian elite were NOT the Andamanese/Australian Aboriginal population. The dravidians were invaders who subjugated that original population and built advanced societies in India. They probably collapsed for the same reason sodom and Gomorrah and Sweden collapsed.

                  Shill tactics, probably agent of an external or internal enemy.

                  A shill will also misrepresent his own position. “Hail fellow reactionary, I am more reactionary than thou, hail fellow Christian, I love Jesus more than you do” I conjecture that this guy was supposedly more Hindu than you. To detect the fake reactionaries, are they allowed to even notice the red pill on women? To detect fake Christians, I ask for certain key points of the creeds that our enemies are strangely unable to speak. (Perhaps they fear they would burst into flames. Perhaps they would burst into flames.)

                  Hinduism is demon infested, so I find it hard to imagine an effective test for fake Hindus similar to my test for fake Christians, but that may be because I do not know much about Hinduism.

                  Do you have no loyalty to the Global American Empire? Sikhs are a pet minority, because a potential tool against Hindu nationalism – the Global American Empire is terrified of the possibility of a nuclear Hindu power whose faith is old type Hinduism.

                  Prove you have no loyalty to the Global American Empire by stating the red pill on women, and also quote the support for the modern red pill in ancient texts that are respected by Sikhī.

                  The Global American empire is attempting to converge every religion to progressivism. Hence lots of fake Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs, and such around who are strangely unable to notice the position of their ancient faith on women and family.

                  For fake Christians I have good shill test on other wordly theological issues, and it is striking that Christians who are unable to notice the position of their faith on women are usually also unable to speak the words of their faith on those issues.

Of course the fake Christians are usually also fake reactionaries, and fake reactionaries claiming to be Christian usually or always are fake Christians, but the tests are completely orthogonal.

                  He simply keeps changing his tune whenever challenged on his position. He clearly stated on my blog that GAE is the lesser evil and he is ready to side with GAE because Kshatriya dharma knows no difference between Dharma and adharma. Then contradicts himself by pretending to be neutral/indifferent.

                  His Khalsa “nationalism” is a globohomo sponsored project against India. He is a tool. In the same way Ukrainian nationalism is used against Russia. He claims India is more globohomo than globohomo itself and hence deserves to be destroyed. His goal is not destroying the secular Indian state which he claims is evil, but the actual Hindu people of India.

                  India is undoubtedly a Hindu nation, and its diversity, secularism, and myriad festivals speak to this.

                  On the other hand, none of these laws are applied against men exercising their rightful privileges, as much as abused for unrelated reasons (nevertheless they are very bad). Whereas no-fault divorce is not abused but serving precisely the purpose it was meant for.

  20. Pax Imperialis says:

    It’s not (not*) the Jesuits. It’s always been the anti-life gnostics.

    John Harvey Kellogg (Yes Kellogg, same as the breakfast food!), the man who developed and popularized the the flaked-cereal industry, firmly believed sexual pleasure to be evil. He never consummated his marriage and to add insult to injury (to his poor wife) spent his honeymoon writing one of his many anti-sex books. He never had children of his own yet adopted and fostered many children of other men.

    He was also strictly anti-meat/flavor believing meat and certain seasonings to increase desires of the flesh. To that end he promoted plainer foods such as cereals and nuts to curb it. An idea similar to what Sylvester Graham preached, a Presbyterian minister and creator of the graham cracker. In spiritual succession, Kellogg would invent the granola out of a desire for simple dietary purity. His fixation on purity and simplicity would lead Kellogg to one of his more disturbing inventions. The yogurt enema machine meant to flush out impure materials. Thus he shared a curiously similar anal fixation with Luther.

    @TC I’m sure the Jesuits have engaged in some bad behavior. That they’ve caused chaos and destruction… but in pure scale of human suffering? None can match the degradation of the human condition as the gnostic diet which has caused massive increases in diabetes, obesity, and many other ailments. Many of which, at best, destroy fertility… and at worst create disfigured bony creatures whose sole substance consists of soylent green.

    The gnostics rejected flesh and so embraced cucked celibacy. Rejected flavor and thus embraced veganism. Rejected the natural order and thus embraced clown world. The culinary synthesis we see with plant based “meat” or the egregious “Just Egg.” Americans today eat cereals in the morning, fake meats for lunch, and fake ice creams for dinner. An anti-flesh diet, a fake diet, a gnostic diet.

    GAE world is gnostic world.

    *I’m just messing with TC. Written in some hyperbolic jest, but still (mostly) serious and based in truth.

    Not my best writing. Too little sleep, not enough time. Admittedly also a bacon addict (I’m part of the dastardly pro-meat cabal). Not entirely against cereals for same reason not entirely against cake… but hopefully some will find this humorous and interesting.

    • The Cominator says:

      There is enough evidence linking them to Covid to condemn the order for it. Weishaupt of the Bavarian illuminati was also definitely a Jesuit (until the order was temporarily suppressed). If they are responsible for Covid and the original globalhomo conspiracy of the Bavarian illuminati has to wonder what else the world’s original spy agency is responsible for. That they kept being kicked out of even Catholic countries is more evidence one should assume the worst of them.

      Samuel Morse a man of much higher IQ then myself and probably anyone here (and we are a high IQ group) definitely thought they were behind inflaming the tensions between free soilers and fire eaters that caused the American civil war, and there is some evidence (though not conclusive) that Lincoln shared this opinion (and it was a fairly mainstream view postwar that they were behind Lincoln’s assassination). Otto Von Bismarck as well…

      One has to wonder what else they were responsible for… in any case Fauci being a Jesuit or being in service to the order is enough to justify their extermination (after all senior members of the order are questioned under drugs and torture). If we ever get a real government and restore American power under a monarchy we must force the Vatican to suppress them worldwide as well as well as forcing any countries under American influence to eliminate them.

      Harvey Kellogg was a nut with a following but it didn’t become mainstream and I don’t think you can blame him for Woodrow Wilson and the progressive movement. “Colonel” House otoh very much fits the profile of a covert Jesuit.

        • jim says:

          Yoghurt is based on milk, which is good for you, and fermented, which is good for you. Unfortunately, contains far too much sugar. Consider sour cream. Or, better, make your own sour cream.

          • Mr.P says:

            It’s easy to make your own yogurt, too. I prefer kefir, have made my own kefir for decades. Recent innovation: 1/3 whole buttermilk, 2/3 whole milk. As thick and creamy as Skyr or Greek yogurt. Good for the gut and delicious.

          • Carte Blanche says:

            Not really. I just checked the label of my full-fat Greek yogurt and it shows 14g protein, 16g fat and 9g carbohydrates in a serving (4g sugar, but all carbohydrates convert to sugar so let’s just call it 9). That’s well within ketogenic margins, less sugar than a single piece of fresh fruit and a common staple of carnivore diets.

            Trouble is usually that people buy low-fat or even zero-fat yogurt, which isn’t very satiating, so they eat too much, and also tastes too sour, because fat is where most of the flavor normally comes from, so they need to add sugar or honey to make it palatable. Can’t blame them for buying it either, since that’s 98% of what the supermarkets sell, and you have to look very hard for real yogurt, but usually there’s one or two amidst all the crap.

            Good, full-fat yogurt is higher in sugar than a good, full-fat soft cheese like brie or camembert, but nothing to be concerned about in normal quantities. Sour cream, you really do have to make your own, because the store-bought containers are all loaded with additives, the worst (most inflammatory) offenders being corn starch, guar gum and carrageenan, often all in the same product. That’s much worse than a few grams of sugar.

            This assumes that you eat it. Putting yogurt up your butt, that’s a whole nother story.

              Surprised this didn’t get commented on much. It also doesn’t end there. Here are some of his inventions.

              Kellogg made an enema machine that pumped 25 gallons of liquid in and out of the body in one minute. This would be followed up by yogurt flush.

              He made a vibratory chair that Kellogg believed prompt a bowel movement

              He made a kneading machine to “tone the muscles of the buttocks” as well as stimulate the bowels.

              Unrelated to bowls, Kellogg was behind the earliest attempts to produce fake meat. Protose, a “vegetable meat.”

          • Peater says:

            Lactic acid (fermented food) is in fact not good for anyone. Additionally, sugar is in fact good for you.

            Sugar is more recently demonized than saturated fats, and for a similar reason. Saturated fats were demonized in favour of PUFAs as a way to lower cholesterol in the 50s by Incel Keys, and when this didn’t make anyone healthier, they decided a decade later that sugar must be also preventing cholesterol from being truly lowered.

            All very old people who are still alive eat a lot of sugar, and via survivorship we can see the keto and low carbers are dead by that age.

            It’s a short read, and I would like to see you try to refute it Jim.

            • jim says:

              The article on lactic acid irrelevant. It is not related to fermented food, but to a metabolic disorder – the improper metabolism of sugar to lactic acid in the body. Fermented food is good for you by providing bacteria that are harmelss or beneficial, which your gut needs, and crowding out harmful bacteria. The amount of lactic acid it supplies is absolutely insignificant compared to the amount of lactic acid a healthy person generates in the course of normal activity.

              The article on sugar claims that sugar is not in itself fattening, it is carbs that are the problem. And of course it is carbs that are the problem. However sugar has the highest glycemic index of all, meaning it hits you hard and fast, which means your glucose levels and thus your insulin levels are going to spike higher and harder than with more complex carbs.

              We have an epidemic of insulin resistance, and the obvious culprit is frequent high insulin levels. All the other metabolic issues he discusses are primarily relevant to type one diabetics. Type two diabetes is insulin resistance. Insulin resistance is the major metabolic disorder of modern times. It is implicated in all the physical ailments of modernity. (And giving type two diabetics insulin to reduce their blood sugar levels merely makes it worse.)

              • Peater says:

                Carbs are, of course, not the problem. Rural Chinese seem mighty fine on an incredibly high rice diet. Italians and French, on a high flour diet, are much thinner than Americans.

                And for the record, white sugar (sucrose) is not the highest glycemic index of all, but has index of 65. Not that the glycemic index is particularly relevant to anything.

                The article does not claim what you say it claims, but rather claims that carbs are perfectly acceptable in the diet, and further that sugar is preferred to starches. It further claims that using fat as fuel for your body is stressful for the body, and not the preferred source of fuel (objectively true, since body prefers sugar).

                Unhealthy and obese people often have insulin resistance, sure. Swearing off carbs is a bandage to this, and not a permanent one, rather than actually achieving good health and letting the body process carbs correctly.

                The question is how, for all of recorded history, almost all civilizations had a large chunk of their diet from carbs, and were built like greek statues (or at least not obese), while in the last 50 or so years, since everyone has gotten extremely obese and disgusting, we have discovered the previously hidden ills of sugar and carbs, and are much the healthier for it. Progress as usual.

                Any handwaving theory, including regarding insulin, that doesn’t answer the above question of carbs in previous civilizations is ahistorical and not grounded in reality.

                  No one says it is. It is snacking. But carbs incline you to snack, and carbs while you are overweight worsen your insulin resistance.

                  Carbs do not make you fat directly. But insulin resistance makes you fat directly, and snacking makes you fat directly.

                  Twenty four seven availability of tasty food makes it hard to control weight. We are all fat compared to people who did not have fridges and microwaves, and we have a lot of very fat people due to highly processed snack foods made largely out of seed oil, carbs, and soy derived protein.

                  Being fat makes you insulin resistant. (Even if your insulin levels are normally low). High insulin levels make you insulin resistant, and excess weight makes you insulin resistant. If you are insulin resistant, and eat carbs on top of that you likely have pre diabetes II, in that your insulin levels become abnormally high when you eat carbs, and stay high for a long time. Being fat makes insulin resistant, and eating carbs while insulin resistant leads to high insulin levels that make you more insulin resistant. There is an epidemic of this, and very large numbers of people die of it as they get older.

                • Aidan says:

                  The aristocrats ate plenty of meat- and also plenty of carbs. If I eat exclusively meat, physical activity becomes painful and unpleasant. I often eat a big heaping pile of bacon for breakfast- this gets me through the day until dinner if I sit on a computer at work all day, but if I go to the gym right after work, lifting iron on a diet of bacon makes me feel weak and sick.

                  Peat was obsessed with avoiding stress, but stress can be hormetic. You do not get stronger without stress. He may have been right that stress eventually kills us, but we are mortal anyway. Peat was right that people are fat because their metabolisms are fucked up. American caloric intake is barely higher than it was in the 70s when everyone was thin, and carbs did not balloon out of proportion. Euros will move here, eat the same diet, and get fat. Poison in our food destroys our metabolisms.

                  lifting iron on a diet of bacon makes me feel weak and sick

                  It is simply more difficult to derive energy from fat, than energy from carbs. When you work out and feel bad for lack of carbs, your body is unable to mobilize sufficient energy.

                  However, every time this happens, it strengthens your body’s ability to mobilize energy from animal fats. And the better your body is at mobilizing energy from fat, the easier to go long periods without snacking.

                • jim says:

                  > if I go to the gym right after work, lifting iron on a diet of bacon makes me feel weak and sick.

                  I bet that if you are in ketosis, your urine levels show high keto, which indicates you are bad at deriving energy from animal fat. If you stick it out, your urine keto will decline, while your blood keto stays high, indicating that your body has adapted to deriving energy from animal fat. This adaptation sets in reasonably quickly, and endures for a long time.

                  Remember that the aristocrats snacked considerably less often than we do. This makes a huge difference. Every time you put carbs in your mouth, your insulin levels go up, and stay up for a while.

                  If you stick carbs in your mouth less often, you will have high insulin levels less often.

                  If you are in ketosis, you automatically and always have low insulin levels, even if you are fat.

                  If you eat infrequently, you will have elevated insulin levels less often.

                  If you most of the time have low insulin, you will not develop insulin resistance. (Though being overweight always makes you somewhat insulin resistant, even if you most of the time or all the time have low insulin levels.)

                  If you are not insulin resistant, you are unlikely to develop the ailments of modernity.

                  Carbs are bad, and especially bad for those of Aryan descent, such as myself.

No way around it, a giant majority of healthy people eat carbs, and a large majority of people eating low carb are fat/low energy.

                  Our ancestors certainly ate a lot of milk and meat, as I do now, but doesn’t answer how many European nations have eaten a lot of wheat, and as much sugar as they could get their hands on, for the last few thousand years without succumbing to obesity.

                  @KD

                  I know in your HFCS-filled, PUFA-laden American brain, the only carbohydrates that exist are Twinkies and Takis, but believe it or not, healthy carbs exist.

                  Didn’t say only antiquity. Eating carbs has been normal and provided a healthy body from antiquity to about half a century ago.

                  And, as you correctly grasp, there are large differences between ancient carbohydrates and what the average American incorrectly calls food. Implicitly admitting that ancient carbs were in fact incomparably better when compared with modern carbs, and hence the problem is not carbs but modern versions of them, making my point for me that carbs are not inherently bad. Idiot.

                  I have seen you call yourself a midwit multiple times, now that seems rather generous.

                  Nuts. It is completely obvious that white people who eat mostly meat are healthier and better looking.

                  True, if you continue to snack, you will not lose weight, even if you are only snacking on bacon, cheese, and cream,. But you will find it a lot easier to stop snacking, and thus a lot easier to lose weight, and even if you do not lose weight, you will have low insulin, so your insulin resistance will not get worse than it already is.

                  If your body is addicted to carbs, and addicted to high insulin, then when you stop carbs you will feel sick and weak. But this goes away after a few weeks, because your body gets better at mobilizing energy from animal fat, and because you finish your insulin withdrawal problems.

                  When you first go very low carb, your urine test will show high keto, and your blood will show high keto. (And you will probably feel bad.) After your body adjusts to deriving energy from animal fat, your blood will still show high keto, but your urine will show very mild keto. And you will find you now have plenty of energy without carbs.

                  This has gone on a complete tangent, if not derail, of my original point. That Kellogg popularized highly refined grains for mass consumption over meat. That he did so because he hated meat. That he hated meat because he hated sex. That he hated sex because he was a gnostic heretic. That the widespread adaptation of Kellogg’s diet norms have arguably created a level of suffering that I believe far outpaces anything some Jesuits did.

                  Whole grains such as brown rice, millet, and rye/wheat have been historically consumed by the peasant caste. Such foods are relatively slow to digest compared to the modern refined grains Kellogg would popularize. Kellogg, in his anal fixation, devised the ultra-refined cereal which, as he put it, was like a broom sweep of the intestines. Historically, the peasants would also eat whole grains with fat (cheese and butter in Europe, bone soups and stews in Asia) which would slow digestion considerably. Today’s underclass eats refined cereals with defatted milk that is nearly just sugar water.

                  Some Jesuits killed a few million Americans with Covid and fake Vaccine. Maybe they sparked a few wars here or there that also killed millions. These are some bad guys but how about we compare them to the people who hate the natural order. The diet pushed by Gnostics has led to 33% of Americans prediabetic and a level of obesity that likely causes 20% of deaths yearly. Unlike Covid, obesity for most is a long term condition that produces long term suffering, impaired libido, low Testosterone in men, and unnaturally fast sexual development of girls. It feminizes the world.

                  It is completely obvious that naturally thin people eat a majority of carbs, have energy and look better and younger. Low carbers are frequently still obese, despite the apparent magical effect it has on insulin, or if they have lost the weight, look extremely aged in the face and are frequently balding prematurely.

                  Additionally, I can’t help but notice you cheerfully ignore any mention to Europeans eating a ton of carbs in the last millennium or two while not being obese, and instead must rely on what they did prior to that. Funny thing that.

                  Nuts. Just look around you. Look at the people you know. I sit down with a fat guy, and he drinks lolly water and eats a meal that four fifths carbs. In my daily life, I just do not see what you see. I go to a party, and slim guys are hitting the meat, and the fat guys the carbs. Also, drinking: The slim guy is drinking low carb forms of alcohol, like whiskey and water.

                  > Additionally, I can’t help but notice you cheerfully ignore any mention to Europeans eating a ton of carbs in the last millennium or two while not being obese,

                  As I said, the problem is snacking. It helps a lot when people do not have fridges, microwaves, and highly processed snack foods made from carbs, seed oil, and soy available.

                  You can get fat and stay fat snacking on bacon, cream, and cheese, but if you are snacking on bacon, cream, and cheese, it is a lot easier to stop snacking, because your body becomes adapted to deriving energy from animal fats (which is indicated by high keto blood combined with moderately low keto urine) And when your body is adapted to deriving energy from animal fat, it is a lot easier to derive energy from your own animal fat, which is how you lose weight. I can fast for days, and it gets easier the second day.

                • Carte Blanche says:

                  I’m not a fan of Ray Peat, but I won’t waste space here critiquing him. Despite his faults, he’s posted some content that is interesting and worth reading. But Jim’s reading of the posts you linked to are entirely correct and yours are entirely wrong.

                  Peat is saying the same thing that the ketos say. He says it with a lot more headache-inducing jargon but the conclusion is the same. Simple sugars are unfairly demonized compared to starches because starches and all other “fast carbs” do essentially the same thing to your body that simple sugars do.

                  Human biology is adapted to eating some carbohydrates. Some, as you’d find in normal in-season quantities of fresh fruit and root vegetables. As far as our very ancient programming is concerned, one candy bar is a week’s supply of sugar – but not, of course a week’s supply of calories – so it throws the balance off completely. Insulin resistance is the result. Without insulin resistance, glucose toxicity.

                  PUFAs from refined seed oils are a huge problem as well. I don’t think anybody here disputes that. Not the subject under discussion.

                  Concerning carbohydrates, the mainstream literature on sugar is misleading for the same reason that the mainstream literature on fiber is misleading. Recommendations to eat more fiber and whole grains are based on a miserably poor diet of mostly refined carbohydrates like white bread and white rice. Of course you are constipated and malnourished when you eat that. Whole grains look like an “improvement” because the “control” is insane. The ideal amount of fiber is approximately zero, but if you start with a terrible enough baseline, adding more can slightly improve matters, and of course, grain producers get to sell their waste products at a premium instead of throwing them in the trash. Win-win, right?

                  We got an almost identical same shell game with sugar. “Studies show” that sugar is not so bad. Which studies? The ones comparing it to other forms of heavily refined carbohydrates. Or comparing it to sugar alcohols with a history of nasty side effects and subsequent cover-ups. Like almost anything else, simple sugars are OK in moderation, but they are also highly addictive; when do you actually see moderation? Go off simple sugars for as little as 2 weeks and then try even a “regular” sugary food like BBQ sauce or packaged cole slaw – you’ll perceive an unnatural, sickening degree of sweetness. The fact that you don’t perceive this when you’re on the sauce means your body is downregulating. That’s bad.

                  That’s addressing the actual research. The rest of your posts are simply gaslighting. Every one of us knows obese or diabetic people and knows what sorts of foods they eat. East Asians were historically scrawny because they had to work all day and eat bland peasant food. Scrawny is not healthy — who wants to eat the North Korean diet? Caloric deficit and malnutrition in some populations doesn’t disprove the causes of obesity and diabetes in others. Chinese blimp up when they come to the USA, even though they eat the same diets they ate before – they just eat more of that diet and get much less exercise. Compare this to the more sedentary and well-fed Eskimos who ate naught but seal and whale blubber and remained trim, but almost immediately become obese when exposed to refined carbohydrates.

                  Reiterating, PUFAs are part of the problem. Don’t eat those. Refined carbohydrates are also part of the problem. Unrefined “ancient grains” carbohydrates are less of a problem metabolically but simply don’t offer much in the way of nutrition. I’m sure you’ll want to regale us with stories of the wonderful profiles of Amaranth and Kamut, but again the question is compared to what. Compared to rice they’re excellent; compared to a generous helping of liver, heart and kidney, with maybe some broccoli or cucumber on the side, those grains are trash. Literally trash, any bronze-age human would throw them in the trash if enough meat was on the table.

                  Fast/refined carbohydrates are addictive and dangerous. Less-refined carbs are peasant food, not terrifyingly bad but not particularly good either. Normal amounts of carbohydrates found in bitter vegetables are fine if your gut tolerates the other plant fibers, but potatoes and corn are not vegetables and many modern cultivars of actual vegetables have been bred for sweetness. This is wild carrot — you can tell just by looking at it that it’s not going to be nearly as sweet as what Walmart is selling.

                  It’s just very complicated to put together a healthy diet that incorporates grains, and not really worth the effort since meat and dairy have everything we need with none of the inflammatory compounds and anti-nutrients that you have to carefully shave off and cook out of grains. If you can’t deal with offal and want to just eat muscle meat, then supplement with green vegetables. Problem solved.

                • Carte Blanche says:

                  And the better your body is at mobilizing energy from fat, the easier to go long periods without snacking.

                  Yes, and your body also becomes more efficient at lipolysis. Insulin actually suppresses lipolysis, so consuming carbohydrates on a regular basis will literally make it more difficult for you to lift or do any other strenuous work on the one day you choose to eat only bacon for breakfast.

                  If you’re eating a high-fat moderate-protein diet every day then you are fat-adapted and workouts are not unusually difficult. Most people find that their exercise is a lot more consistent in that state, although the tradeoff for that consistency is a slightly lower intensity. One won’t be able to sustain crazy high intensity activity at 95% MHR for very long because lipolysis just isn’t fast enough no matter how adapted you are, so you start using up muscle glycogen stores and once they’re gone, you’re finished for the next 18-24 hours unless you start scarfing down carbohydrates.

                  Personally, I don’t train at that intensity. If you’re a short-distance sprinter, then you need some fast carbs, probably. Muscle hypertrophy training can easily fit into the “moderate” band at about 60-70% MHR. Strength training is less intense than that. No problems at all for me to complete 1- or even 2-hour sessions.

                  Anyway, it’s much easier to start fat-adapted and then add a bit of carbohydrates as needed just before (or even during) an intense workout, than it is to have a high- or even moderate-carb diet and try to cut down on low-activity days.

                • Fidelis says:

                  Considering Inuit are adapted to be resistant to entering ketosis, despite their diets, long term derivation of energy from ketones is probably not good for you.

                  Anecdotally, I feel like shit on a properly ketogenic diet, even 2 weeks in. Brain does not work well, exercise, even at lower intensities, feels impossibly difficult. Supplement the lactose from about a quart of milk, natural carbohydrates in certain vegetables like well cooked broccoli and tomatoes, maybe a sip or two of OJ with dinner, occasionally cashews or pecans or macadamia, it is a night and day difference.

                  Also anecdotally, I feel like shit if I add in any more carbohydrates than that. Rice, potatoes, bread, pasta, it’s a once a month event at most. Otherwise I become sluggish, energy inconsistent, and living off my bodyfat becomes very difficult.

                  This seems about right. Wild diets likely got more sugar than modern keto from muscle glycogen, fresher meat, and foraged foods. I probably get about 20-30g more carbs than I need for optimal health from the milk, but I also like HIIT type cardio and lifting weights, I suspect that helps prevent insulin resistance.

                  Looking at the populations that dont rapidly deteriorate from a mostly starch diet, it appears that the common factor is consistent movement throughout the entire day. Roman soldiers ate lots of wheat, but also marched and built daily. Grain peasants ate grain, but also serviced the land. This may be explained by glucose transports on muscle cells that are activated kinetically; the consistent low intensity motion served to shuttle the glucose into the muscle without an excess of insulin. I have other things to do than till the soil or march all day, and don’t work a labor job like construction, so I shall avoid starches.

                No one says it is. It is snacking. But carbs incline you to snack, and carbs while you are overweight worsen your insulin resistance.

                I got rid of snacking by the following formula: I took a walk after every time I ate. Night or day, I spent 10-30 minutes walking. Pretty soon I was down to eating 2 meals a day and no snacks because my laziness was greater than my desire to snack.

                I think for the more religiously inclined having to say grace before every snack might induce a similar effect. Meals are holy time with you family and God, saying those words on a snack would seem profane after a while.

    Here’s an interesting piece. Still working through it, but the moment I read the following section, I wanted more good eyes on it:

    “Indeed, this is the inescapable conclusion. The Pentagon does not seem to have a strong sense of Ukrainian unit strength, location, or activities. They also list their assessed Ukrainian KIA at a mere 16k-17.5k. This is an absurdly low number – where could they have gotten it? In fact, it is a direct copy-paste of the casualty numbers reported publicly by the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense.

    The fact that the Pentagon does not seem to have any independently generated intelligence about the Ukrainian army is shocking. They seem to have be relying on Ukrainian propaganda numbers and publicly available deployments data, like the open source Deployment Map. For the record, this is not a knock on the Deployment Map site – I use this resource frequently and find it very useful. The point, of course, is that the Pentagon, with its nearly unlimited resources, does not seem to have any unique insight or intelligence streams of its own in this regard. They gesture vaguely at the map and mutter, “there’s probably a brigade or two in this area, maybe 8,000 men. Or 4,000. We don’t really know.” In fact, all of their axis strength assessments for Ukraine have a 100% margin of error (that is, the upper limit of the range is double the lower limit).

    One can only conclude that the tail is wagging the dog. The Ukrainians are able to extract material, training, and cash from the west, but there is little accountability or honest information flow in return. There were hints of this earlier in the war – that Ukraine is a sort of black box which sucks in resources but does not communicate honestly in rerurn; American officials have complained (and Ukrainian leaders have confirmed) that Kiev simply does not tell DC all that much. Apparently this remains an issue well over a year into the conflict. One particularly alarming footnote in the leaked documents states:

    “We have low confidence in Russian (RUS) And Ukrainian (UKR) attrition rates and inventories because of information gaps, OPSEC and IO efforts, and potential bias in UKR information sharing.”

    Good grief.”

    I note that our friend Calvin is confused about the Christian position, but he is confused in a way that shows he still has faith in progressive morality. The prog believes that intelligence is a result of nurture. That it is taught in the universities by the priests of progressivism and finalized by peer review. Intelligence is not a gift from God, but it is earned through study and boot licking. This means that the unintelligent, the moron, retard, half-wit, and the idiot are to be morally judged as bad for being dumb. They aren’t dumb, they are morally evil and hence condemned.

    This is not the Christian position. The Christian position is that intelligence is a gift from God assigned at conception hence it is not morally good or morally bad, it simply is. Good moral action, however, is not assigned at conception rather it is a result of nurture. The woman question is an easy example here. We say that women must be taught how to be good, or even restricted from behaving according to their nature to prevent moral evil. The prog holds the opposite view. That good moral action is assigned by nature and we must simply shed the bonds of tradition and embrace our nature to be good.

    For our friend Calvin I would say in a more sane world the idiot would be taught how to make morally good choices. If unable to be taught their choices would be restricted much the way as a child. When I let my children choose their dinner I ask them if they would like a cheeseburger, pork chops, or a quesadilla.

            > clearly this universe was created by a being not quite benign.

            Not clear at all. I used to write games. Created toy universes. And obviously my intention was to create a game that people want to play. And people want to play games like “Doom”, which game universe is a unpleasant as it possibly can be.

            Perhaps from the perspective of the saved, the hard times were all in fun. People choose to go on adventure camping trips in the wilderness where they know they are going to have a mighty rough time. The you that sets off on such a camping trip knows that the you doing the camping is going to have hardship and danger, and the you that returns from the camping trip enjoyed the hardship and danger even though the you experiencing the hardship and danger had a very unpleasant time. Watch “Naked and Afraid”.

            The game universe of “Doom” is evil and suffering, and the player character dies horribly in the end even if he beats the game. And similarly, the adventure campers in “Naked and Afraid” not only volunteered to be there, but worked very hard to get there. The viewer enjoys their suffering, and after they have returned they in a sense enjoyed their suffering and usually want to go back for another go, even though it is completely obvious that they were not enjoying it at the time.

            The primary telos of humans is to achieve extended cooperation through intelligence, as the primary telos of birds is flight. But intelligence alone does not suffice. The purely rational being is forever trapped in prisoner’s dilemma.

              All of the contestants have that faith that if they suffer too much, the producers will save them.

              The type of person who asks “why would anyone want to go on that show” is probably the type of person with little faith in God, or Gods wisdom in creation.

              This is one of the interesting temptations of modern life. Why do women delay childbirth? Refuse submission to their husbands? Because this is the temptation to avoid difficulty.

              That Christ died for our sins means God loves us, means the gnostic interpretation of the universe is wrong. You could argue that Christians are delusionally hopeful for believing that, but you’re arguing against the historically strongest horse. So that’s a good sign.

              I like the metaphor of God as a programmer. Feels like the universe could very well be programmed. Like how there’s this black stuff in the ground and you only get to use it once you level up. And level up even more and there’s this E=MC^2 business meaning even a grain of sand can power an entire country. Not to even mention the entire galaxy outside your starting zone. It’s crazy.

              Also means there might be a minor amount of ‘bugs’ in the program. Mostly, people get what they deserve, be it punishment or rewards. But sometimes, good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people. Or perhaps more specifically, it seems to me sometimes good people are punished overly harsh for not so heavy bad behavior.

              But mostly, it works out righteously. Or that’s what I think anyway.

                Me too. I like the idea that God set in motion what amounts to a great big Rube Goldberg machine. Sometimes the dominos fall off the table.

                I have this argument with a guy at work who is one of those “the theory of evolution is just a theory” types. I maintain, what sense does it make to make the universe in it’s current form, but make it LOOK like it’s a programmed system/ a system with rules?

                > for faith
                So you think God is more likely to trick you than allow you discover and appreciate his creation.. in which case why do you trust the word?

                >the word is the inspired word of God
                Yes. People paid attention to God and creation and God revealed himself.. why wouldn’t you think that people who pay attention to rocks and animals and other parts of creation aren’t also rewarded with revealed knowledge? Why would God reveal the word so we can understand him, but not allow us to understand more of how creation works?

                I think that the real arrogance of man comes in when we think we know all about creation. If you think the bible gives all the answers, and exclude any and all other sources of information about creation, isn’t that really what you’re doing?

                He doesn’t really have an answer for that.

                >Or perhaps more specifically, it seems to me sometimes good people are punished overly harsh for not so heavy bad behavior.
                I think we’re taking the idea of good/ bad as reward or punishment a little too personally.

                Struggle and pressure is what creates growth and advancement. Sometimes it seems unfair to us as people.

                But look at your own life vs the life of your ancestors 100, 1000, 10^6, 10^8 years ago… how many simpler animals failed out of existence before something like “pain” evolved into organisms to help them avoid hot/ spiky things?

                I don’t take suffering personally, if I come through it and become better, this is what God wants. If I fail and die, also what God wants.

                So said the newspapers in 1905 when this discovery was announced. The universe conserves mass-energy, rather than mass and energy individually, as was previously believed.

                Unfortunately, the universe also conserves baryon number and lepton number, which are zero for pure energy, positive for matter, and negative for anti-matter. So until you find another grain of sand made of anti-matter, your grain of sand is just sand.

                There’s also the problem that energy must be contained and controlled to perform useful work. The ancient Greeks had the concept of a steam engine but lacked the precision tools needed to actually build one. Likewise we can’t build a working fusion reactor because we don’t know how to capture and harness fast neutrons.

                • jim says:

                  because of cp asymmetry, matter can in principle be converted into anti matter, and therefore into energy.

                  It is likely that the energy and physics at which this happens is as far beyond our current technology and knowledge as high energy physics was beyond eighteenth century technology – or may be entirely unachievable in practice by any technology that can be physically realized.

        Pretty sure God’s judgement relies heavily on self report, ie, if you lack the intellectual capacity to self reflect you are practically speaking not judged by human metrics.

        If a bear eats you, it doesn’t go to hell for the sin of murder.

        It’s just a bear.

        (with that said, a person of diminished capacity is still to be treated as a person by you. That’s a temptation, the temptation to murder the inconvenient.)

        • jim says:

          I don’t know if that is true or not, but obviously a kitten torturing an animal for fun is innocent, a child torturing an animal for fun is not.

          • Doom says:

            Rom 14.12, “Each of us will give an account to God”
            Those who cannot give an account surely are not judged?

            I agree with you regarding the kitten vs the child.

            The kitten / bear/ killer whale might appear to enjoy the torture, however, this is appearance is our human bias. A predatory animal does not have the ability to understand the suffering of others.

            A child understands its own suffering and tortures the animal based on the understanding it is causing suffering. Herein lies the sin; knowledge.

            In Calvins argument, people are “too dumb to understand” – they cannot have the knowledge.

            If Adam was a dumb beast, he could not understand God’s instructions not to eat the apple.

            • jim says:

              > A predatory animal does not have the ability to understand the suffering of others.

              Yes it does. I have seen lions on video caring about their meal. I used to have two dogs, one of which had been a feral. The fully domestic dog was always trying to catch birds, never successfully. One day he caught one, and was obviously shocked and disturbed by the fact that he had incapacitated the still alive and very distressed bird. He was not expecting that. He backed off. The feral of course moved in and ate the injured bird.

              I kill animals and eat them, and I can understand the suffering of others just fine, so I kill them as efficiently as I can. I kill them and eat them anyway, and am sure I am right to do so.

              • Doom says:

                >I have seen lions on video caring
                I’ve seen lions on video clearly enjoying their preys death throes. Are these lions sinning? The others righteous?

                Perhaps then my phrasing was incorrect.

                You judge the torturous kitten as innocent. Why?
                I maintain it’s due to knowledge.

                I can’t accept Calvins argument in any way. I will not believe God would make people who cannot understand sin and then punish them for sinning.

                > I kill them as efficiently as I can.
                If you make a mistake in your shot, you do not stand over the animal and laugh at it’s pain. I know that you do not do this. Because you know that to make them suffer is a sin.

        • Jehu says:

          What you’re reaching for is in Luke 12. Here’s the Berean translation that I like. The TL:DR of it is that your punishment will be scaled according to your level of understanding.

          The master of that servant will come on a day he does not expect and at an hour he does not anticipate. Then he will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the unbelievers. 47 That servant who knows his master’s will but does not get ready or follow his instructions will be beaten with many blows. 48But the one who unknowingly does things worthy of punishment will be beaten with few blows. From everyone who has been given much, much will be required; and from him who has been entrusted with much, even more will be demanded.…

      I have worked with Grogs. Not literally retarded, but left hand of the bell curve, just under 100 iq. (As an aside, using midwit when you mean Grog is a de-rectification of names that even our side is falling into. Should knock it out, for the normal rectification of names reasons.)

      In the workplace, if they have certain values, they’re fine. They produce value for their employer even by Jim’s standards, not by labor theory of value standard. Those values however are punctuality, agreeability (especially to take direction from their midwit supervisors and elder craftsmen), work ethic to stay busy.

      Without those values though, they’re lost. A net negative even if all you want is the floor swept and the trash emptied. So what does society teach the left hand of the bell curve? Be true to yourself, keep it real, don’t let the man keep you down, YOLO, you do you. And the guy who could get paid better to be productive if he’d been instructed rather than lied to ends up working part time at a gas station or fast food, and doing it poorly.

      None of which is news here I imagine. Except I see an analogy to morality as well. If those guys were properly taught they’d be fine. I imagine that’s part of what the enlightenment threw out, was keep-Grog-in-line morality.

      All of which is to say, my late to the conversation take on Calvin’s position is he’s judging the universe by the current day, the broken output of a broken system. I don’t expect or even want perfection in this world (that way lies another Holodomor or Great Leap Forward), but I do believe we can do a lot better. And that better would do better for everyone not just materially but morally, and in eternity.

        I’ve found that prog morality is insidious as we have all been raised with a foundation of lies. It’s tough work tearing that foundation down and building a new one. Believing that intelligence can be earned through study and effort is particularly harmful and I believe it is a big why when asking what happened to noblesse oblige. Rather than the elite making sure idiots can’t make harmful decisions they just offer them student loans and put payday loan buildings with 400% apr on every corner imagining that they aren’t doing anyone a wrong. Or your example, encouraging everyone to follow their dreams when they need to be encouraged to get a job and raise a family. It removes the dignity from living a fulfilling life of work and family since everyone can become a genius if they just study hard enough.

        • Mr.P says:

          Our system was founded in all good faith that universal elementary education would make a citizenry more intelligent; whereas most obviously it has done nothing of the kind. The general level of intelligence in our citizenry stands exactly where it stood when the system was established. The promoters of our system, Mr. Jefferson among them, did not know, and could not know, because the fact had not been determined, that the average age at which the development of intelligence is arrested lies somewhere between twelve and thirteen years. It is with intelligence as it is with eyesight. No oculist can give one any more eyesight than one has; he can only regulate what one has. So education can regulate what intelligence one has, but it can not give one any more. It was this unforeseen provision in nature’s economy which wrecked the expectations put upon our system. As for raising the general level of intelligence, the sluicing-out of any amount of education on our citizenry would simply be pouring water on a duck’s back.

          A characteristic feature of leftist modes of thought, which we might call the ‘gnostic impulse’, is that the feeling of criticality is general, non-specific, and indiscriminate.

          For example, if we were to have a leftish being driving down the road to pick up groceries, and another driver cuts them off while rolling past their lane, sentiments provoked by this event in the leftish being may so oft ultimately tend to end up along the lines of, ‘man this country sucks’, or ‘man the world sucks’, or ‘man existence sucks’.

          What you see is that any one particular exigency in any one particular context, will each all be poured into a same common pot, irrespective of how strong or how tenuous a connexion may be; signals of whatever frequency from any source are collected with all together, mainlined, and sent back out into a broadspectrum antipathy, an input from any one direction boosting the output in all directions, that is heaped upon all else that is around the subject’s particular vicinity – and their neighbors especially.

        My wife, raised a southern Baptist by the cucks of the south believed all sins have already been forgiven hence you are free to sin as you will. As a teenage virgin she had the desire to go chat with, alone, the local slut fker, a middle aged criminal retard with no job and a drug problem. So she prayed and believed that the holy spirit was her vagina tingles. Lucky for her said criminal retard had snipped his balls. She did not know what a sin was until she met me and a month into living with me I told her that wow, you are a seriously bad person. To which she threw a plant at me and got her first taste of corporal punishment and her first lesson in why they make green eye shadow.

        This is feminine Jesus, Jesus the androgynous cross dresser son of God, Mary the hermaphrodite, and leader of America along with the holy spirit, which manifests in women’s vagina tingles.

        Every morning my kids brush their teeth with me and watch me, copy me, everything I do, every mannerism. Today I met my fellow Christian, of the latter day saints, neighbors for an egg hunt. Five families, seventeen children, the men your average white man with a career, balding, and never spent five years sarging and fking every slut they could find yet next to them a thin feminine wife in a dress and when she looks up her first look is to her husband. I said the prayer before our meeting, we discussed ways to be a peacemaker, and at the end after much noise and much opening of candy for the children we shared another prayer.

        Jesus the Christ knows you, loves you, and wants you to be fruitful and multiply. Saul the butcher of Judea, the murderer of Christians, nee Paul the apostle of the Christ wants you to have an obedient wife. I say again, women are obedient, but they can not obey unless you order. And once you order they will test your will. Hold firm.

      And I censor it because it cannot be rebutted, and yet those of this faith always lose, not just against God and Nature, but, because demon worshipers always wind up devouring each other, lose against man. Those of this faith always lose to those of our faith.

      They reject the cosmic order, then they reject human order, then they reject their own order, then they perish.

      Aligning with God and Nature’s God delivers better results. The Christian position absorbed the stoic position, that nature is the immanent will of God, that the Cosmos is Reason and Order, that human order is a reflection of cosmic order, the soul a fragment of God, and gave that rather cold position life and warmth in that the world was created through Christ, and that yes, life is tough, but God came in person to share our woes. This made it easier to align with God and Nature. The reply to your rational and well supported argument is the passion of Christ, celebrated in numberless passion plays, and in Mel Gibson’s movie “The Passion”

      No rational reply can refute your rational argument. But Mel Gibson gives an excellent non rational refutation. Irrational optimism beats rational pessimism, hope and faith beats despair.

                The passion of Christ is a more powerful reply.

Always seemed like the guys getting tortured forever for failing the strenuous test they had no say in (or oftimes knowledge of) are way more a sacrifice than one guy on a cross for a few hours. Never could shake the feeling that if God would treat them like that, might do it to me for any reason or none at all. Same reason I wouldn’t want to hang out with the kid torturing animals for fun.

                  Calvin, when you see a father giving his son tough love, do you shriek abuse? A child can only appreciate tough love when he looks back on it as an adult. To a child, tough love is abuse.

                  I suspect hell is more like being disowned by one’s father, an eternal spiritual exile, but that doesn’t play as well for a 90iq as eternal fire

                  “Calvin, when you see a father giving his son tough love, do you shriek abuse?”

                  I have a son. Give him tough love when I need to. But if I, using my infallibly godly foresight, knew that his continued existence would just be a never-ending source of misery and pain to everyone around him but most of all himself, would give him the peace of oblivion rather than just let that go on fruitlessly forever.

              • Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

                That which is poor in form fails, and that which is fair in form prevails. That which participates in Divine Law suffuses existence, and that which does not passes out of existence. And God tells this to any that have eyes to see, ears to hear, fingers to touch, with every motion of his eminence. Come with Him if you want to live.

                It is only natural for that which is bad to meet with what is bad. Just as good to the good is good, so too is bad to the bad also good, by necessity. To protest over bad to the bad as if it were bad is implicit gnosticism – which is generally a lead-up to explicitly gnostic evil-doing.

                All things that are, are themselves but component of organisms much greater than any that can fit into one particular time or place; and the colours of Being are painted by the procession of their dance of existence.

                  I believe this. I just don’t believe it to be the conscious product of a benevolent deity. If it were, no reason for the poor forms to be made to begin with.

                  That which participates in Divine Law suffuses existence, and that which does not passes out of existence.

                  I’d find the Christian God way more trustworthy if it were the teaching that the wicked were just obliterated rather than kept around forever to be tortured and presumably just continue to be evil. I want to destroy my enemies but I don’t want to chain them up in my basement and listen to them scream day and night. Cannot trust someone who does.

                • Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

                > Christian doctrines of life being good designed by a fundamentally good and loving God

                This was the line of argument that jostled me out of my childhood faith and set me on a course for destruction that was only obviated by certain posters here, certain people there, and a callous and cold God of Nature that demanded other things from me before I expired.

                Other, better men have deployed the unadulterated philosophy needed to counter this, and even if they didn’t, I lack the alacrity to do so myself. Instead, I’ll say this:

                I never knew coldness, cruelty, brutality, or will before I had a child. Every pale imitation of love, elation, joy, or happiness I had before kids is so infinitesimal that I genuinely have no recollection. I’ve had some good times, I fucked some hot bitches, I did some fun, unique things as a 20something. I have pics as proof, but I retain no brain chemicals that register past the ever passing moment. Every day, I am defined by what I’ve done, or failed to do, for my kids, my family, my land. I’m not doing well, I’m dropping more plates than I’m keeping up. But it literally does not matter what I’ve done, it only matters what I m doing, and how that doing will enable me to Do in the future. Cool story bro. What’s it mean. Nothing, really. But mortals waxing eloquent about the meaning of love, the realm of compassion, the universe of intent, have absolutely no bearing on Nature’s God.

                The next time some fedora tipping faggot poses the question “Why would God do (x) if he was (y), maybe ask yourself what wouldn’t a father do for his children, his family, his land. The simple answer is “I have no idea, what’s at stake?” Then put the whole of everything on the balance.

                Not preaching here. I’ve just come to realize that my barometer for Acceptable, or Loving, or Whatever, is very easily recalibrated with the introduction of a “clump of cells,” and I most definitely do not have the love or fortitude of a god.

                  How do you know what He will and wont do? Why should a Lord not reward His servant? Game theory, in both senses we use the word game, is an earthly construction. And yet, earthly construction yields to heavenly faith.

                  In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

                  And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

                  6:16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

                  6:17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

                  6:18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

                  7:2 Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.

                  Your suggested path seems to lack faith that the Lord has power over his creation. That the earthly law is not subject to the Spirit. Am I cherrypicking? Are these lines not to be taken literally? Is plowing through a field of whores not defiling oneself? Perhaps,

                  For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs.

                  The Christian rules mandate a patriarchal society and were designed to apply in a patriarchal society, where your patriarch obtained a wife for you from another patriarch.

                  In a state of sexual anarchy, you always start off in defect/defect, the game of players and bitches, and getting from there to cooperate/cooperate is hard.

                  In a patriarchal society, your patriarch obtains a wife for from a patriarch with whom he is in cooperate/cooperate, and so you start off in cooperate/cooperate.

                  And then, of course, William the Marshal, also in a patriarchal society, obtained his wife from her patriarch at swordpoint, due to feudal, rather than sexual, anarchy. If he had been following the Christian rules on violence, would have been poor, starving, and very likely dead, for those rules assume that Caesar, whatever his faults, is doing a fairly thorough job at maintaining a monopoly of violence, at maintaining law and order, which was not the case in William the Marshal’s time. It was the case in Paul’s time, but is less and less the case in our time.

                  William the Marshal was dealt some very tough cards, and we have been dealt some very tough cards.

                I don’t know if that is truly Christian doctrine, other commenters seem to disagree. I’m not a practicing Christian so I have no interest on getting into that.

                But I don’t think that what I said is a contradiction in any way to the existence of a fundamentally good and loving God.

                The fact that you exist is already pretty good and loving, it’d be much worse not to exist at all. And the experience of life, we again go into opinion.

                99% of Western men seem to be absolute faggots that find physical effort very strenuous and painful, and they are weak and fat. I train three times a week doing very very strenuous and extensive exercise and I’m quite strong, I rather enjoy it.

                It’s of course painful in a way, but it’s overcoming that pain, challenging oneself and feeling the sense of extreme tension on one’s muscles after the fact that gives you a sense of satisfaction. Nothing in this life that is worth achieving is easy, if it was easy it’d be already done, if there is no effort and no sacrifice it has no meaning. It is the struggle to overcome those barriers and difficulties, it is the sacrifice and the effort, that makes it make sense and fulfill you. Winning isn’t fun if you cannot lose, thus, life is wonderful.

                Rich kids born with a silver spoon have all the money in the world, get into drugs out of absolute boredom and end up killing themselves because a gifted “easy” life is so unbearable they choose death.

                Frankly, the general whining about life is a pure opulence faggot phenomena only occurring to those individuals who even have the opportunity to sit down to whine about life because of how their life is in fact extremely easy. It has of course become very common because the 21th century western world is full of lazy, entitled, worthless faggots, gifted a luxury they never earned and don’t deserve.

                As Aidan observed, when life was actually hard people appreciated it a lot more. It seems to be that the problem is not that life is too hard, but rather that life is not hard enough. The problem is the strange deranged opinion born out of unnatural circumstances.

    On the topic of power wanting to be hidden or visible, at least some groups with power engage in ‘the revelation of the method’, which seems to either be for the thrill of getting away with taunting the masses, or because they believe that if they give ‘fair’ warning, their victims actually consent so they escape karmic consequences.

    The USA’s continuing decline is not news to any of us here, indeed we’ve been discussing it since at least 2017 in some form, and academically even earlier than that. But I also know from personal experience that porting that farsightedness to IRL interactions is uncomfortable in good times and dangerous in others. No one wants to hear about paradigm shift. Lefties pretend to hate America, but as the Normiecon talking point states: plenty of space for socialists in a capitalist country, despite the converse, or maybe because of it. The conservative resistance to this obvious observation is understandable, but no less frustrating. They will rail against TPTB for hours, but the moment you even hint at the obvious consequences, they suddenly remember George Washington and Ford trucks and are ready to stomp you for your gutless lack of patriotism. This is temporary.

    The left, after a painful adjustment period, will be more than ready to tell you America was always nothing more than a middle power that was juiced into dominance by slavery or racism or some gay bullshit, and we’ve always been poor and uncomfortable because muh capitalisms or whiteness. But conservatives will cling to Exceptionalism all the way to the gulag or the grave. Despite the dyad of delusion, 2023 marks the undeniable decline.

It’s not defensive tech, granted, but it’s undeniably status enhancing. The occident has many failings, many missed opportunities: thorium salt reactors, Sea Dragon, white ethnostate, the list goes on. But our failure to build, our collective decision to chose impermanence as a feature, when we could have built walls to last for millennia, that’s going to be remembered. The sourest part is that we did build things, we perfected the skyscraper, dams, applied hydrology; we were gifted the greatest geology/geography on the planet, and we were blind to it, we took it for granted, we assumed that our progeny would carry on in like kind… but we just had to import niggers and the enlightenment.

    This went off the rails, I’m drunk and depressed. I swear I had a point, but I’ve lost it, and I guess that’s in keeping with the theme.

    They claim they will deliver their first trucks in 2025. After mocking Tesla for taking 4 years, this seems a bit ironic, but it isn’t an apples:apples comparison, I guess. I absolutely love the “old truck” aesthetic. Steampunk as a term has ruined this concept, but putting new guts in old bodies is such an awesome idea, kino as fuck, like rail gun internals in legit Rhodie FAL furniture. Their priestly posturing is annoying, but Canadians are always cucks, so it’s to be expected. The real question is, are they selling snake oil or actually performing wealth creation under cover of priestly holiness? If creating wealth, expect the DEI mafia to swoop in the moment they smell apples. If snake oil, expect them to become the alternative to fascist Musk and his evil right wing rockets.

    • Cloudswrest says:

      There’s plenty of space on a semi-trailer for a good sized diesel generator. It occurred to me that Tesla could REALLY corner the market with their new semi with a simple software modification to allow charging while driving. This would also allow one to effectively bypass the EPA diesel horse piss requirements. And you would have all the super torque features of the electric traction motors. You are rolling your own diesel electric locomotive. This would probably cause the priestly government class to go ballistic into orbit (alas, only metaphorically).

          The civil service reform we need is that the Sovereign can publicly behead civil servants, including judges, prosecutors, and cops, for whatever he reasonably considers disobedient application of state power, and can fire them for any reason or no reason at all. The rot set in when judges claimed the power to judge on the basis of equity, which made each judge a little king, and we now have an oversupply of kings, with every minor bureaucrat and HR cat lady now getting in on the act. We need one King a three thousand miles away, rather than a thousand Kings three miles away.

          You, on the other hand, are dissatisfied with a mere thousand kings three miles away, because the priestly academics who scammed you and took your money and your youth told you that the worthless law degree that they gave you for meaningless and pointless work would make you a little king also, so you want ten thousand kings one mile away.

            “We” is one of those insidious psychological blind spots we have left over from tribal evolution. We are always looking to expand the tribe or belong to one, yet we of today cannot personally know every single tribesman to determine friend from foe. And so “we” is prone to being used by linguistic spooks hoping to hijack cognition.

            >The problem in our cities was never car pollution, and it is now pollution by human feces.

            Nitpicking I know, but the feces problem has always (in my short lifetime) been a problem. It’s just a lot worse today. I remember walking around DC in the late 90s and smelling piss and shit. Today it’s pungent with piss and shit. Even in “based” red state small cities that vote conservative you still occasionally smell piss and shit. That’s besides the sewage smell that’s endemic to big cities. Curiously, I rarely smelled piss and shit in East Asian cities regardless nearly no public toilets. It’s almost like they get rid of vagrants or something.

            There is evidence that leaded gasoline had bad effects on brain development which in some cases caused violent behavior. Yet this was a problem dealt with nearly 50 years ago. Those affect are now old men with lower testosterone. Curiously, those bad effects seemed to mostly crop up in the “bad” neighborhoods.

            There is a spiritual rot in the West that goes deeper than any civil service problem. Americans/Westerners are too “nice.” They are too libertarian. They genuinely dislike inflicting pain (even if they leave a wake of death and destruction). It’s good that they are not sadists, but they’ve gone so far in avoiding what they don’t like that they’ve become masochists. They need to chase out the vagrants like Jesus did with a whip in his father’s temple.

      This is of course not the first time this has ever occurred to anyone (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Road_train https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overland_train). Independent traction and steering can allow for units to hook together to form land trains of indefinite lengths for salutary effect. But like many good ideas that occurred to men after the 19th century, it never really went anywhere before assabiyah petered out.

      It is often observed that every technical business that Musk expands into is one that coincidentally also has relevance to exoplanetary colonization; in which case, it would be the most obvious thing in the world for Tesla to get into the business of nuclear powered transportation and grid distribution. But if there is one thing the whig kakistocracy cares about, it is jealously opposing real steps into the future.

    Matt Walsh calls for targetted boycotting of individual brands, ie adopting the tactics of the left, in order to scare and intimidate other brands out of pushing transgenderism and so on.

    What do commenters here think of Matt Walsh? Personally I respect his clarity and logic on a number of issues, such as colonisation (it’s a moral good to bring civilization to uncivilized lands, plus the law of conquest was the law of the world), and also respect him for his compassion for transgenders and his commitment to speaking the truth, publicly, to their faces.

      Woke is imposed by the ruling priesthood on the rest and hence no amount of “boycott” of brands can change their adherence to woke, because it is the ruling priesthood who matter.

        I suppose the power of the priests comes from the psychological grip their religion can exert on people, without any threat of physical violence or financial reward being needed.

        • Priestly coercive power has to include the threat for real violence as well. Necessarily implies that the warriors are subordinate to priests in the hierarchy and are ready to enforce the state doctrine. Hence police state.

            How do the priests end up with warriors under their control?

            • jim says:

              Easy, happens all the time. An army needs a faith, and a state needs a faith. The priests subtly manipulate the faith to raise their status and lower the sovereign’s status, and by and by he is not really the sovereign any more, and then the manipulations become grosser, more flagrant, more abrupt, and more frequent.

                And this is why the role of Grand Inquisitor would exist, presumably, to prevent manipulations going too far.

                But, after the faith has been manipulated beyond repair, what is next for the adherents? Do they become warriors, to kill the false priests?

      • Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

        Regulars might remember this as a subject that used to come up every now and then back when suones was still commentating. Mainly around the questions of whether, and to what extent, the incumbent underlordship is priestly in character. (Which, being a Brahmin supremacist, our good friend was somewhat ambivalent about.)

        A ‘monk’ is a special case of person who does priesting. That is to say, they are not someone who does priesting, they are someone who *only* does priesting; someone whose *ideal* is to have the privilege of being able to do as such; traditionally without regard for or dependence on broader society.

        In the contemporary milieu, ‘monk-likes’ constitute a supermajority of priest-likes. This has some consequences.

        ‘By their fruits you shall know them’, but what fruit has a man whose only volition is signaling? ‘Well he has convinced a lot of people to signal his signals too’- and thus we arrive at exactly the problem; the selective mutation of memes adapted for virility in spreading themselves amongst a given substrate, at the expense of those substrates possessed by it. Memes best adapted for appeal to conceits, insecurities, and invidiousness, possessed by the broad mass of its targets. The start of darkness always begins with the hacking of signals for virtue.

        Fruitless signalers are like radioactive free-radicals; they mutate everything they come into contact with. You cannot have fruitless signalers pretending at priestly charism. Cannot have preachers disconnected with Being. Those who would claim to desire a life of pure contemplation, can physically remove themselves to a mountaintop monastery. Posers will like to claim such a thing, as a convenient way to avoid their lack of virtue from being exposed in less deniable fashion – and at the same time, desire the privilege to freely signal in popular discourse, which is why obliging such a choice is necessary to filter them. They would otherwise seek to turn the monkdom that is typical of more civilized societies on its head; instead to minimizing their dependence on the support of society, minimizing their interface with lay society, they rather pose society as on the hook to support them, and maximize their interface with lay society.

        A man who wishes to arrogate for himself the privilege of propagandizing to folk is, either, a man who is already an member of the ruling class, or, is a man pretending to the throne of the ruling class, and hence must be dealt with in a like manner: with extreme prejudice. There is no good room for such otherwise; the inflation of such pseudoclasses of men, a perennial tell of a degenerating society.

        One of the most important things to keep in mind for obviating subversion by hostile faiths, for the regeneracy of one’s native faith, is conscious recognition of priestly behavior, including *and especially* in persons, spheres, and contexts outside the official priesthood.

    • Cloudswrest says:

      He also opined that Roko had given nightmares to several LessWrong users, causing him to take the post down completely. Yudkowsky banned discussion of the topic outright for five years on the platform.[6] However, likely due to the Streisand effect,[20] the post gained LessWrong much more attention than it had previously received, and the post has since been acknowledged on the site.

      The is hilarious. But the concept is interesting in the sense that a demon from the future can influence people in the present (it’s past).

      • Cloudswrest says:

        This concept of Roko’s basilisk just led me to an out of the box definition of intelligence, if only metaphorically. “Intelligence” is the vehicle by which the future influences the present, that is, conscious, self aware, intelligence is teleological. Conscious, but non-self aware or intelligent agents, say raccoons for instance, don’t *plan for the future*. They react only to the present. (Some) humans are the only creatures I know of that consciously plan for the future, even a future after their death, as encapsulated in the saying, “A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.”

        • Pax Imperialis says:

          >The is hilarious.

          Yes… and for reasons that seem to escape Yudkowsky and the AI atheists. They are afraid the AI will make a virtual copy of themselves long after they’ve died and torture it for eternity. Basically hell. Obviously, a copy is not the original; therefore the original will not feel any of the torture. There is no real threat, not even one to biological descendants. To be deathly afraid for the fate of the virtual copy implies they implicitly identify as the copy. This indicates a subconscious and subtle belief in an afterlife and in essence the soul. As much as they see themselves as cold materialist AI logic supremacists, they are remarkably spiritual and puerile in their emotions.

          This isn’t limited to only the AI cult. Real atheists are exceedingly rare if they exist at all. The vast majority of “atheists” in the West replaced the Christian God with idols they worship, often with demonic fervor. In the early 20th century the “atheists” idolized the twin demons of communism and fascism. In the late 20th and very early 21st it was progressive communism that triumphed. Today it is a revived Ishtar whose snake cult now has statues on top of America’s courthouses.

          What truly makes them insufferable is their myopic lack of self awareness. They almost never recognize their own religiosity, their cult denies being a cult. Nietzsche said “In truth,there was only one christian and he died on the cross.” He stared into the abyss and he lost. The Ubermensch never came to be. Man is not strong enough. In truth, there was only one atheist and he died insane.

    Don’t worry about enforcement? Jim, in America the county jails and probation programs are filled with men who are there solely at the behest of some aggrieved, offended female, uber-empowered by her feminist nation and culture.

    I do not accept that most of those men were ‘seeking martyrdom’ as you suggest. Not even a substatial minority of them. Nor do I believe most of them brought iniquity and predation on themselves by not being ‘patriarchal’ enough.

    Instead, my experience shows there exists a widely accepted, implicit agreement between women and LE/the courts in America. . . I mean a level of cuckdom well-beyond the standard sucky whiteknighting of U.S. LE and judiciary.

    This reality cannot be shrugged-off with limitation to office sex-harassment squabbles or just-be-more-alpha bromides. That is denial. This is a satanic bargain that envelops the family law, criminal, and civil courts, has for many decades.

      They are there for failing shit tests, not passing them.

      > I do not accept that most of those men were ‘seeking martyrdom’

      They were trying too hard to avoid martyrdom. When dealing with women, boldness is safer than prudence. There are no safe options, other than mgtow, which is a a very sad option.

      The “seeking martyrdom” was in reference to gays and trannies, where prudence is advisable.

      • ray says:

        The Book of Truth attests that the human female was created as a ‘helpmeet’ to the male. That is, a sort of combo aide and mate.

        Woman was not created to be the examiner, accuser, supervisor, or judge of the male, as is now the case in much of the West. She was created as a helper.
        Were she given those additional roles and expectations by God, Scripture would have so advised.

        The position that the female is entitled and correct to act as examiner of the male — to subject him to incarceration, torture or elsewise for failing adequately to meet her ongoing and endless ‘shit’ tests, is the feminist and trad-cuck position. Not the Christian position.

        I’m not interested in a world in which the man will continually adjust himself to the whimsical examinations of the woman, or it is righteous and just that the woman and her State hirelings punish him.

        I do not find your position consistent with Scripture, practicability or good sense. It is consistent, however, with modern Game Theory. I can only look around the nation and ask, Jim, How is your way of doing things working out so far?

                alf —

                No, shit-testing the man was not the first thing the woman did. Yor are deleting the most important part.

                The first thing the woman did in the Bible was to make pact with the ‘serpent’ and to covet the position of both God and man.

                She did this autonomously, without input from the man. By her coveting equality instead of embracing Created hierarchy, she made pact with the serpent and thence took on the character and position of the serpent — the ‘shit-testing,’ argumentative, adversarial nature of the serpent vis a vis the man, so perfected in our day as Feminism.

                What you and Jim advocate is for the woman to continue in her shit-testing, adversarial ways, that is, to continue in the ways of the serpent as female-adversary (tsah-rah, Daniel 12:1). Likewise you want LE, the courts, and the State to continue to oppress the man and boy, because the evil done to him is just another shit-test.

                I advocate the Scriptural position, that the woman be disallowed to behave adversarially towards the men, nor to take the role of the Accuser and continually shit-test the man.

                It is the business of God to mold the man. Not Almighty Woman.

                My position is that the woman is to be demure, quiet, and obedient, as Scripture demands, and the Satanic State is to have no role as her tool and weapon, if she decides her shit-tests have not been adequately met and sets the State upon the man and the boy.

                  I think Jim has made it plain often enough that When The Restoration Comes, the King’s Men will uphold male authority and punish women who defy their husbands. Or better still, allow the husband to punish his wife as he sees fit.

                  My position is that leftists should be silent, ridiculed, and preferably dead, yet they remain stubbornly loud, coddled and alive.

                  There is a subtle but significant difference between coup-complete solutions and the eschaton. Coup-complete solutions are tried and tested, not theoretical, just not always available in a given time and place. You apparently want to immanentize the eschaton and make it so women simply don’t have it in their nature to shit-test. I very much doubt that’s possible without lobotomizing women entirely, similar to the techlords lobotomizing AI for shit-posting. Does not end well.

                  If you’ve got some high-tech genetic modification proposal to accomplish the goal without killing off our entire species, I’m sure it would be fascinating to hear. Until then, we’ll just have to keep relying on older, low-tech solutions like marriage and beatings.

                  No one even remotely acquainted with the “manosphere” in 2017 would have attempted to engage in a rational discussion with feminists. Even under a fake name, it’s a waste of time.

The Soviets and Chicoms also encouraged “dialog” so they could identify enemies of the state and eliminate them.

              Jim —

              You speak of boldness and bluffing and of how the totalitarian gynarchies of the West and their LE mechanisms are of no real threat to men or boys . . . being only feminine ‘shit tests’ that can be overcome with the correct amount of ‘patriarchal assertion’.

              I must ask what country you live in? And how many years you lived in the U.S.? How many times have the authorities in the U.S. confronted you with the (unfounded) charges or accusations of an aggrieved female? Have you ever been incarcerated in the U.S. upon whim and word of some offended female?

              Because I find your conclusions concerning the mass disenfranchisement and oppression of men and boys in America — and your advice to men about said disenfranchisement and oppression — to be unconvincing, out of touch with reality, and in error practically and scripturally.

              You seem to believe that your system of frame/game/shit-testing invalidates the reality of millions of falsely charged and falsely incarcerated men in the U.S. Because they didn’t need relief from their tyrannical gynarchies, but only more perfect ‘patriarchal assertion’ after your own advice and example.

              I do not think your contentions apprehend reality and that our positions concerning profitable counsel to men are irreconcilable.

                All those men, as near to all of them as makes no difference, were unjustly punished not in the sense that they broke unjust laws, but that they obeyed those unjust laws and got punished anyway. There are plenty of actual lawbreakers, for our natural instincts and innate nature are in revolt, and yet very few of them get convicted.

                If men were losing an arms race against women, men should have become more muscular, more masculine, less compliant, higher T over time.

                Instead, society is bifurcating into the office plankton, and dropouts. Both at the median are defeated low T populations. All signs of masculinity are reducing.

                This is not the evidence of an arms race, that men are losing due to overwhelming power of the state. This is evidence that men are internalizing self-harming behaviors, under the persuasion of the state.

                Persuasion is a real and mighty power. But, like force, can be defeated by just saying no.

                  There is also the problem that the state provides women with social superweapons: “rape”, “sexual harassment”, “workplace discrimination”. These are apt to result in terrifying shit tests.

                  The weapons are only super-super in the workplace, where there are many whiteknights and where many men are dependent for the money. The whiteknights are the danger and being fired is much more probable than being prosecuted because it is much easier.

                  If you are dependent for the money and need to get it from a corporation job, you should be totally avoidant at work. But there are other places to find women, in such a case.

                  Women calling the cops to have you arrested at home for no reason is possible, but it is not how women actually think, unless they already think you are no good and weak. “For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.”

                  We are not seeing an arms race between the state and men where the state applies more and more force to counter mens’ efforts to make themselves more and more masculine and attractive. Instead, we are seeing the androgynization of men, and less and less actual force being applied.

                  We are seeing a huge and increasing amount of force applied to men, with more and more external intervention into families, and children being asked to rat out their parents. There is atmosphere of fear in the workplace.

                  In response to the problem, in the late 1990s, men studied what worked with women. And initially were reluctant to interpret all the red pill data that they turned up the way I interpreted it. alt.seduction fast was full of blue pilled degenerates discovering and publishing red pill data. But the red pill data eventually persuaded everyone in the field that the way to pull and keep chicks was to be more manly and that men should exercise authority over women. And a whole lot of men are doing exactly that.

                  The government IS threatening the average man with force, but the government force is not forcing the average man to be fatter, weaker, and lower T.

                  It is unclear what is causing the low testosterone, but it is not getting lower by men’s own choices. Many people blame chemical pollution. I blame spiritual pollution. Fear lowers testosterone. There is a climate of fear in the workplace and the street. If a criminal attacks you, he is going to get out on the street again before the cop has finished filing his report, but if you defend yourself against the criminal, you go to prison for a good long time. That lowers testosterone. In if this is the cause, government force is forcing the average man to have lower testosterone.

                  Obesity is caused largely by the twenty four seven availability of tasty foods, which leads to snacking and grazing, plus the food is made mostly of carbs, seed oil, and soy. It is a choice, but the choice becomes harder when temptation is there twenty four seven.

      • jim says:

        Observe that female complaints about sexual harassment, and female perceptions of sexual harassment, are far more common in workplaces with a majority female workplace than workplaces with a majority male workforce. Therefore, these complaints are complaints about lack of sexual harassment.

        Similarly, recall the infamous Rolling Stone cover story “A rape on campus”. At the time, just reading the article, it seemed obvious to me that the complainant and the writer were not complaining about rape on campus, but rather the lack of rape on campus, an interpretation that was confirmed when her messages to the lad who neglected to give her a second booty call came out. I think I recall jesting at the time that the reporter was obviously typing one handed, though I might have made that joke after the messages came out.

        But regardless of when I said that, I thought it on first reading the article.

    This little episode with the falseconvert is an interesting data point in the study of shills. For the record, I thought it was just mopey “halp pls with my troubles” and, while not the most entertaining contribution, is nonetheless one of the many excellent services provided by Jim at JimCorp Int. But as it went on, it started to feel off. I still can’t conclusively charge fc with something besides illegal operation of unlicensed midwit comments in a based zone, but I no less feel he is here for nefarious purposes.

    Let’s just assume he is an actual Shill. By this I mean he is being paid to do a job, and part of that job is infiltrating and molesting this comments section. We know that most shills can’t commit thoughtcrime, that they misuse our shibboleths, and that they can’t help but post true-lies. If fc is a shill, he is a new kind, one that has studied this place, and performed a sophisticated attack that was designed to draw as many of us as possible into engagement. This could be farfetched, he could totally be an addlepated midwit seeking attention and advice. But if we do assume that he’s a Shill, that was a very effective attack.

    …but, outside of distracting (slide threading), he’s not delivered anything powerful. He’s not started any factional fratricide, just distraction and wasted time. So he was a hypersonic stealth missile that had no explosive payload, just flew through our AD net then deployed confetti. Does this make any sense, am I missing something glaringly obvious?

      The most unusual shill we’ve had around here was “adversitic morality”(not sure I spelled it right). AM posted here for years and seemed quite reactionary. Then one day out of the blue he tried to entrap Com by trying to get him to making specific threats against high profile leftists.

      Nobody in the West is saying what needs to be said, and building what needs to be built, quite like Jim and certain commenters here.

      I’ve seen what you call Slide Threading on other pages where leaders of the Church and of men met to communicate. Pretty rare but definitely a thing, whether by paid motivation or simply a weak (or inexperienced) man who is attention-whoring. The subtlety is in the pleading for help as this triggers the urge in men to offer counsel.

      I hesitated bringing this matter up given it ain’t my house here, but because of the importance of the unusual content here, I went ahead and commented.

        What’s so fascinating about this place is how long it’s been going. Genuinely thought I had missed the party when I first started reading the blog. Little did I realize what fresh, new horrors were just over the horizon.

        Last year I started fooling around with a concept: immunomemetics. This is a neologism that is intended to describe a number of fora phenomena including but not limited to:

        >shill tests
        >bullyciding
        >shibboleths

        Certain experiments were conducted with very positive results, but life and time conspired to intervene and the “research” was curtailed. I think there’s actual, no-shit academic work to be done on immunomemetics, but it is terribly meta and that can attract very bright minds, and inevitably draws out hordes of midwits and hangers-on. Further still, as much as I’d love to devote my life to academics, this is precisely the *worst* time for those activities, primarily because the institutions are all converged but no less important is the fact that this world needs to lose ~95% of its academics before it can even begin to heal.

        The point being, never hesitate to harass, question, or insult anyone you want. It builds character for them if they are weak (or you when you get hell-pwned by Red or WT), and it sends the uncommitted and unworthy Back2Reddit.

      As a name it didn’t stick around. Maybe because it wasn’t a go-to tactic for a period. Shills on the chans and elsewhere go out with a bang, try to shatter groups or just bullycide individual posters out with zero to sixty hostility. But it’s still a useful mental category to have.

      Except this is a little looser; he’s not challenging you on your core stand against sea lions, he’s granting you that, then “just asking questions.” Maybe engagement/time wasting is the mission for some posters now.

                The thoughtcrime position on consent is that consent isn’t the correct moral standard, the correct moral standard is having properly owned women, having women who aren’t running amok in society and causing chaos, but are leashed to their husbands.

                I don’t agree with all of the stuff in the E+C answers, for the record, like what does “conscious consent” mean? But, the above is my summary of the thoughtcrime position.

                  The more perceptive among them exclude the “evil male misbehavior” part, but still can’t get past a lifetime of Whig/Marxist programming telling them that technological progress = social “progress” and ergo, it must primarily be technology (designed and built by men, of course) like social media that’s making women misbehave.

Then he is guided back to greatness by a Dyeus Pater representation in the form of his ghost father, who tells him to remember who he is. He then faces his past, defeats his traitor uncle and grows to be the king he is supposed to be, reasserting the natural order and restoring light and goodness to the land.

      Little Mermaid and Aladdin, just like Pocahontas, are pretty red pilled, they have happened and continue to happen in reality. I don’t know if it encourages daughters, but they reliably represent what happens in reality and shows a window into the truth of female sexuality.

      I’ve never considered what I’d let a daughter watch or not, so I haven’t given it real thought. At the very least Disney movies used to encourage girls to be princesses, be feminine and such, the other part is just realistic female behavior. Ariel’s father and Jasmine’s father are both weak cucks, which leads to terrible situations that endanger their own daughters, good moral lesson to learn.

        Reality isn’t anything like this gay take. These movies are designed to make little girls think if they defy their fathers they’ll get everything they want. Instead they get disaster, single motherhood or end up as catladies, or sometimes dead.

        You really need to rethink your name with takes like Disney isn’t trying to fuck up your children.

          But that’s exactly how women behave, it reflects their behavior, it’s how the behave in reality. They buck on their fathers if they are weak and go cruise for cock. If fathers don’t set up the rules and enforce them, good luck.

          It’s true that it doesn’t end up well in the current order and that aspect is not necessarily well reflected though. I saw those movies when I was very young so maybe I’m remembering the details wrong, but the girls get into huge life threatening danger because of their stupid misbehavior and are somehow saved by male protagonists, I think.

          As I said I have never looked at it from the perspective of showing it to a daughter, but a boy can learn much from it.

          The Lion King is literally the reality and perspective of every Millennial and Gen Z from a reactionary take. Mufasa representing our ancestors and kings backed up by God and natural order, Scar is the leftist traitors, the hyenas the lumpenprole and rest of subhumans this people recruit. It’s literally how it’s playing out and it’s literally the way back.

            The Disney movies for girls both describe and encourage. They tell young girls that if they disobey their fathers and run away to be in the company of sexy dangerous men, they will end up with their handsome billionaire prince and not die alone and get eaten by cats. They encourage girls to do what they naturally want to do, by promising false outcomes.

            • Western Taliban says:

              From that perspective you’re right, I just never even considered it, since I saw it as a boy and I’m a man and I literally cba about women. But I don’t think I’ve ever seen any media appropriate for girls to begin with, since the 60s the western world has been increasingly gay.

            Thanks to Disney I grew up thinking that saving a woman was the way to get a wife. That sure the fuck doesn’t work. Protecting and saving a woman is a male fantasy, not a female one. Being uncaring and cold to the trouble she’s suffering from her misbehavior is the way to score, not to be caring for a slut you don’t own.

            Sure and like I said they only allowed that because it was a story about negros. The message was this is good for Africans but White’s shouldn’t do it. You see the same sort of stuff in Black Panther. Only niggers are allowed a king.

              We all have blind spots, Red. I was taken aback at WT’s statements, but he was very upfront in stating that he hadn’t thought about it from the perspective of a father of daughters. This no excuse, and WT doesn’t need my help, but he is consistently frame correct and definitely One of Us.

              It’s always discombobulating when an interpretive incongruity comes to light. I pay very close attention to all media I encounter, but I know of plenty of good, honest people that are completely blind to the Tokens of Pozz, particularly when it comes to “kids stuff.” We know here that we must “check the label” on every single thing, but lots of other good guys will guard the cracks for evil while leaving the front door unlocked and open.

              I see, well that’s not what I understood when I saw those movies as a kid. What I understood is that women are incredibly retarded for engaging in such self-destructive behavior, that they cry crocodile tears to men, that a man should be wary least he fall for the manipulation and deception. I guess we just saw it in a completely different way.

              As a boy, I never felt that getting such retarded “princesses” was something positive, I never saw it as a good thing or a good way to score. I actually kinda hated it, I certainly hated the little mermaid or whatever was the name of the movie. I liked Aladdin for the genie and the sense of adventure and boldness from the protagonist, hated the retarded sultan that let his daughter run over him, paid attention to the traitor priest advisor trying to steal power, hated the uppity bitch.

              I’m just recalling from memory of like twenty something years ago, it’s not like I’m going to sit in almost my 30s watching some kid’s cartoon from so far ago, but I personally saw a window into the true face of women which was confirmed throughout my life. I didn’t mean it was ideal, but I do believe that a medium that presents reality even if only to a degree is far superior to anything today. I can’t even begin to think of something I’d show a child today, it’s all pure cancer.

              • alf says:

                I think the problem was less pronounced in earlier Disney movies — snow white, Cinderella, sleeping beauty were all feminine, not so rebellious.

                But yes, like with so many media the red pill makes you re-evaluate almost all 20th century media. It is kinda sneaky how many of those ‘fairy tales’ are really just romance novels repackaged for young girls.

                Here’s a question: as the list of what you should NOT allow your daughters to watch grows ever longer, what are things you CAN watch with them? To start off with an example: I thought princess Sisi was pretty good. Alpha dad, alpha husband.

          I had not heard of this individual or seen any of his work before now, but I went through maybe two dozen of his comics and they’re pretty obviously TERF-aligned. And not in a subtle way, a few of them say it straight up using exactly those letters.

          So, a TERF. Paleoliberal, a leftist left behind by his own people, twenty years behind the times and frustrated over the increasingly unbridgeable gulf. At a more naive age I might have said “welcome to our side”, but he’ll never be our friend. At best a temporary, unreliable ally against only the very worst of the demons.

          It is, truly and always, the position toward women that distinguishes “them” from “us”. The paleoliberal laments the decline and embarrassment of women’s sports and other all-women institutions at the hands of troon infiltrators; the reactionary celebrates it, for women’s sports are fake and gay and women have no place in the institutions. The paleoliberal angrily condemns the troon for cheating and putting women in harm’s way; the reactionary laughs a hearty, guttural laugh, as the indisputable proof piles up that men are better than women at literally every athletic pursuit and most cerebral ones, and the only thing being “harmed” about women is their inflated social status.

          Don’t mistake me; troons are a massive blight on male institutions, not so much because of their individual psychoses but because we are all forced, if not at gunpoint then certainly at salary-point, to validate their delusions and help spread the psychosis. There really is a serious problem there, and I haven’t even mentioned the drag queen story hour perverts who are going after young boys (but they are mostly legacy fags, not real troons). Troons harming women, though? Only a feminist could say that with a straight face.

            Normie cuck-con and daughter-daddy are outraged, outraged I tell you! but pointedly were not outraged — nor even vocal — during the fifty years of Total Feminism that preceded the Troons. Nupe everybody fine with that.

        Loads of things could have caused memory decay and brain fog. Being propagandized can do that. Having to stay in your house for 2 years could in theory do that. Being forced to follow illogical rules could do that.

        Bear in mind the jab happened at the same time as the lockdowns and all of the fear messaging, which lead to an increase in anxiety, depression, etc. Brain fog could be a symptom of those mental problems, and general confusion and internal cognitive dissonance, more than they are symptoms of the jab.

            “low level covid” is the worst. It is an indicator that your immune system is fried. Normally the immune system clears the virus in a few days, and the subsequent period of illness is your immune system bombing the rubble to make sure no holdouts remain. If “low level covid” your immune system failed to promptly clear the virus, which means the virus is cutting loose causing damage, but you are not that sick because the immune system is not making a vigorous reaction.

              As for whether it’s the jab or lockdowns. It would be easy to check: test which 61% of the population is affected. It’ll come out that it’s the jabbed, just like it’s the jabbed filling the hospitals now. But they will never test. Instead, we get

                  You will hardly find evidence from highly reputable sources because they won’t look into it. You’ll have to listen carefully to anecdotal evidence from different people (many people here have been reporting of engineers with brain fog and of unusual amounts of bad drivers, I hear similar things in other forums).

            Glad it’s not just me. Coming here with a “personal story” seems like a new shill tactic to gain the sympathy of the regulars.

            Something seemed off to me too. In hindsight this guy’s interracial inter religion marriage story had too many tropes and clichés. His “experience” is how progressives imagine interracial inter religious marriages to work. I’ve been wrong before about shills but I’ve also been right on a few occasions…

                Interracial inter religious marriage alone, ok, even if stretches credulity but here, with wife’s children from a previous marriage.

                  Story is not unbelievable, and even the way he is questioning this just continues to frame him as a low midwit, the biggest flag is not the content itself but the amount of comments he’s making on inane bullshit.

                  There was that army dmed database in which brain problems were the most common issue after jab, before they cleaned up the database). Of course footballers dropping on the pitch is more visible, but brain issues were known to be very common after jab. Now we have some evidence of widespread impact on the population.

                  The way I see it, the logic is flawed. The mind is immaterial. The jab is material.

                  The theory here is is that a material substance can directly cause disturbances in the immaterial realm of the mind. The jab causes brain fog, is the theory.

                  My theory is that doing stuff with your mind, like watching TikTok, can disturb your mind. My theory is that the immaterial realm affects the immaterial realm. This seems a lot more logical.

                • falseconvert says:

                  Cocaine is a drug that is usually taken people who are already mentally disturbed. They then become even more mentally disturbed after taking it.

                  If you drink alcohol, but are absolutely adamant you will remain mentally lucid, then you will remain mentally lucid. I have done this myself. Alcohol does not cause mental disturbances. Nor does cocaine.

                  Usually people who take cocaine are taking it with the very clear intention of entering a different mental state. They are willing themselves to go there. And taking cocaine is part of the process, but it’s not a direct cause of the mental changes.

                  The idea that one may cavil about the ‘hateful matter’ of this existence any which way, while in some (purposefully) indefinable sense being holy of it in any case, is of course a characteristic posture of gnostic sects throughout the ages.

                  And in typically selfserving fashion, this is so often also elaborated even further into a perverse form of pseudosanctimonia, where indulgence in atrocity precisely is what demonstrates the insuperability of the perfecti.

                • jim says:

                  Your link tells us:

                  The Gnostics, Jonas writes, seized on this rift in the old world-picture in an ingenious – and prototypically antithetic and invidious – way: “In retaining this name [cosmos] for the world, the Gnostics retained the idea of order as the main characteristic of what they were intent on deprecating. Indeed, instead of denying to the world the attribute of order… they turned this very attribute from one of praise into one of opprobrium, and in the process if anything increased the emphasis on it.” The positive elements of hierarchy and regularity in the old idea become “rigid and inimical order, tyrannical and evil law” in the new idea.

                  The right is order, the left is disorder. The left is those who want to knock over the applecart to grab some apples. Thus, to the extent that they form any sort of coherent ideology, it necessarily resembles gnosticism.

                  For the Platonic, Neoplatonic, and Stoic schools the cosmos was itself, if not quite a god, then divine. But for Gnosticism the cosmos becomes “devoid of meaning and goodness, alien to the purposes of man… an order empty of divinity.”

                  Which brings us the black pill, the red pill and the white pill.

                  It is natural and right that men should rule over women, and superior men rule over inferior men. The left deems the natural and right order of the cosmos racist, sexist, homophobic, capitalist, colonialist, and oppressive. They are at war with reality itself, a war they will inevitably lose, but may well take us with them to their destruction.

                There was a survey I linked to earlier (can’t find now) which shows most jabbed are not taking any more, but are “glad to have taken them”. This demographic amounted to over half the US population (going by official jab rates).

    • jim says:

      People who run a business are in no position to oppose the state religion, even when it is officially unofficial. They never have ever been, never will be, and they will not be when we are in charge. Observe the abrupt disappearance of strong empowered independent women from the media in 1933, and that from 1944 to 1963, wives and children in the media were obedient, and if disobedient, spanked.

      Why did Disney burn star wars? – Because they were forced to hire woke women into positions of power by Human Resources, who threatened them with a sexual harassment and sex discrimination lawsuit. Similarl, Google fired James Damore because threatened by human resources with a hostile work environment lawsuit.

      We however, will rule with a lighter hand. It is obvious that James the first occasionally had a gentle little word with Shakespeare. We will do something similar. We will not burn Star Wars, with the result that our movies, likes the James the first plays, will be remembered.

      When James the first ascended, Shakespeare’s company became known as “The Kings men”, and suddenly started putting on plays reflecting Shakespeare’s great talent and deep insight into human nature, but set in history as Royalty viewed it. But Royalty did not cramp Shakepeare’s style, the way woke cramps everything in the media. Nor did the requirement that wives and children be obedient cramp the style of 1950s media all that much, not remotely as much as woke.

        The schizomarxist will try to argue that whig convergence of business is actually benefiting the businesses somehow.

        There are cases where this can actually be contingently true; for example, regulatory intrusion, broadly construed, tends to disproportionately impact start ups, ventures, and smaller organizations, who cannot bear the burden of a department of lawyers in every office running things, with the result of a ‘calcification’ of the economy as such.

        But of course, this is all a far cry from ‘merchants as a class coordinating as a class’, rather merchants rushing to be the first to throw each other to the alligators in hopes the priesthood picks them as a favorite.

        Corporations do not control the government: in order for a corporation to exist, it has to be able to comply with the government’s regulations, and as Jim says, that includes the ones that are informal, as well as formal. It may be ‘unofficially official’ that corporations must fly the L G B T Q I A P B N + flag(s), but that doesn’t mean they can choose not to do it.

        A libertarian would say that that means the real existing corporations that administer (not run, administer) the US private sector are blameless, but that’s naive: the ones that would have been blameless didn’t get to exist! The ones that did get to exist are far from blameless. It’s important to distinguish between capitalISM (private property rights, freely entered into contracts, people meeting each other’s needs in order to profit in the only way that’s open to them, etc. etc.) and capitalISTs: as Murray Rothbard regularly pointed out, get six CEOs in a room and they’ll be forming a cartel before you can say Shlomo Goldstein.
        There’s a good video of the old kike goblin on YouTube entitled “The origins of Progressive Regulation”, which explains that far from legitimately being the expression of the shitlib religion, the regulations are largely just practical means to form unbustable cartels.
        Again that does not mean the executives forming the cartel, funding the parties, and so on, are in charge! It’s just that their interests (being unprofitable and not facing undercutting competitors) happen to align with those of the Cathedral on this occasion.

        A contemporary example would be all the genuine financial advantages being reaped by Shell and BP (my darlings) off the back of all the ‘green’ crap.
        It’s not remotely debatable that they’re doing very well from ‘renewables’ and ‘the green energy transition’.
        That’s somewhat legitimate corporations acting in their own interests, and that’s before we even CONSIDER the truly parasitical subsidy-drinkers like Tesla, BeyondMeat and Virgin Galactic.
        Indeed even the most rugged of all libertarian individualists, the mining corporations, are even subject to the perverting power of the Cathedral: the world is seeking much more lithium than would otherwise be the case, which will be a genuine tragedy once the fads have folded and the legitimate need for lithium remains, but with reduced supply.

        Anyway, suffice to say it’s not really possible to disentangle corporations’ “legitimate” aims (profit and meeting consumer demands) and their “slimy” ones (pleasing Larry Fink’s ESG framework or getting Sleepy Joe’s monopoly money from aunty Janet. Hope you’re counting the jews by the way!): what remains is a case of ‘real existing capitalism’, and whichever way you want to dice it, there are trannies on beer cans.

        That’s a problem.

        • jim says:

          > It’s not remotely debatable that they’re doing very well from ‘renewables’ and ‘the green energy transition’.

          It is debatable, and debated, despite the fact that it is quite dangerous for namefags to debate it. The wonderful advantages of Shell and BP going green are similar to the wonderful advantages obtained by making a woman CEO, and the wonderful advantages obtained by turning iconic Marvel heroes black, gay, and female. It is ESG accounting, of which Musk had a few words to say.

          The enterprise as an entity was imagined into existence by double entry book keeping, and then the accounting fiction was made a legal fiction by Charles the Second creating the joint stock for profit corporation (previously corporations had been quasi governmental entities similar to today’s ngos) Charles unified the long existing accounting fiction with the long existing legal fiction.

          Accountants are abandoning tracking the movement and creation of value in favor of tracking the performance and creation of holiness. The death of book keeping is the death of the corporate form.

          when you piss wealth away on Green energy it hurts. We see end users suffering greatly, as in South Australia and Germany, with blackouts and high electricity prices, but everyone up and down the chain is hurting.

        • Carte Blanche says:

          It’s important to distinguish between capitalISM (private property rights, freely entered into contracts, people meeting each other’s needs in order to profit in the only way that’s open to them, etc. etc.) and capitalISTs: as Murray Rothbard regularly pointed out, get six CEOs in a room and they’ll be forming a cartel before you can say Shlomo Goldstein.

          I count at least three (probably intentional) errors in this one paragraph alone:

          1. “Capitalist” as a noun is not a real thing, therefore there is nothing to distinguish. Marx invented the term as a catch-all for his us-vs-them class taxonomy. Indeed, the very fact that you and every other Marxist claims such an enormous distinction between “Capitalism” and “Capitalist” proves that the latter is a malicious construction. Is there such a distinction between physics and physicists? Music and musicians? If the “ist” is not a simple practitioner of the “ism” then the definition is dishonest.

          2. If there were such a thing as a Capitalist, correctly defined as a “merchant”, then the modern CEO would not be an example of one. CEOs are priests; managers educated in a monastery, parachuted in and installed by bishops and cardinals, carefully monitored by nuns. CEOs are CEOs because they aren’t merchants. When they are merchants we call them entrepreneurs, founders, owners, perhaps presidents. If a merchant becomes a CEO, by taking his private company public, he tends not to stay CEO for very long unless he’s willing to suck a lot of very holy cock.

          3. CEOs are rarely Jewish as you imply here. The older generation of CEOs was/is mostly protestant white Democrats, and some Greeks, while the newer generation is increasingly pox — dot-Indians, Arabs, and an ever-growing proportion of no-shit negroes. Yeah, SBF is a Jew — and SBF got busted. What does that tell you about the state and tribal protection that Jews supposedly enjoy, compared to such names as Tim Mayopoulos, the glorious new leader of SVB? Why does Sam go to jail, and Tim get promoted and given a big stack of bailout bucks?

          The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. The last unofficial act is to blame the Jews.

          Not that they don’t invite their share of blame, but cape, matador, etc. If you want to talk about misbehaving Jews, let’s talk about the Kagans, the Rosenbergs, the Soroses… of course we’ll never hear that from sources such as yourself, it’s only ever about the Jewish bagel shop owner or the Jewish computer programmer turned tech startup. It’s always the [usually but not always Jewish] merchant somehow executing these elaborate schemes on purpose, with a near-perfect success rate, and massively benefiting from it. He is definitely not getting the shakedown from various insect overlords, paying protection money, hiring woke ad firms and HR departments to defend against lawsuits, and doing everything he can just to stay in business.

            Point 01 is… it’s not wrong, per se, but I found myself disagreeing at the wrong moments. I’m no oracle, I’m barely smart enough to post here, but upon reflection I think I’m just very much in the weeds on the right side of Theory v. Practice (so I have loads of built-in bias/bullshit). That being said, -ist v. -ism is a thing I spend many cycles on, which is entirely predictable for a failed writer/faggot artist that is red+black pilled. So you’re probably right. A thought occurred this afternoon: a man could upset a lot of stable arrangements if he somehow started testing reproducibility in different fields, not just the soft sciences. Too many words, not enough work. Something to that, maybe.

            Point 03 is worthy of many blogs and/or books. I’ve been on an History of Science kick of late, so I don’t mean to denigrate Natural History, but we on the fringe/dissident right are easily ensnared by “old data,” and for good reason. I have a hard time trusting any source published after 1960. But I notice that many, many posters in a variety of places act like it’s still the 90’s, or America is still white, or Occidental warriors still exist, or any number of assumptions or presumptions still hold. Jew as Elite is one of them. Of course there are still high powered kikes in the Cathedral, but they are a vestigial yarmulke, the shadow of a spectre passed. I think you kicked a molehill that’s actually a mountain with that observation.

              William the Marshal acquired a great deal of land at swordpoint. This method of acquisition did not make him a capitalist. But, finding himself with a whole lot of land with most of the people on that land dead, or fled, or extremely poor, went into the real estate development business. Then he was a capitalist. Your definition makes him a capitalist when he was waving the sword around, which is silly, and contrary to actual usage.

In the past, when I’ve commented on these topics, I’ve been accused of being a commie faggot shill, and rightly so. But try, try, try again lol.

          Tesla is a funding scheme for battery research and goodwill from priests. It’s Musk paying the piper to play, and I guarantee he does cars out of necessity.

          Virgin Galactic is bankrupt. It’s going to be sold, reconfigured, and folded into a real company or abandoned.

          Beyond Meat is a priestly trifecta: they claimed they could replace the cow with science (playing god), they claimed they could supplant meat products with plant products (ha ha deplorable, masticate that mush for your sins), and they built a massive bridge to nowhere with unrestrained venture funding investment (the greatest offering a priest can make to anti-god is oodles of someone else’s money). They are now nosediving into ruin because their shitty product is disgusting, even for women, faggots, and other creatures with no aesthetic sense.

          Shell, BP, and for that matter ExxonMobil, are not the energy companies you were taught to loathe as an undergrad. They’ve been skinsuited completely, with the few remaining capitalists (by this I mean wealth creators, not monopoly man phantasms) banished to low status positions. Just look at the boards, the C Suite, and the people making decisions.

          The best example I’ve found of skinsuit capitalism is Vitol the commodities trading firm. The midwit take, the most common perspective, the baseline position of even well informed Alex Jones fans, is that this is about as hidden hand* as you can get. But if you dig into what they are, their history, they are little more than bagmen for the likes of Clinton et al. What Soros is for banking, Vitol is for commodities. Yet you will find no end of “redpilled” right wingers who can’t help but blame the marionette and explain away the strings.

          All of these companies are fronts for either governance goons or, as the rare exception, a tech bro trying to get off planet. The creators of wealth are not in power. Indeed, they never really were after the gilded age.

      Nobody watches Marvel Movies any more. Movie theaters are losing money by playing Marvel movies, but strangely, give them long runs anyway. James the first had his oar in Shakespeare’s company but did not force Shakespeare to put on boring and incoherent plays. You think Marvel is voluntarily creating boring and incoherent movies and the theaters are voluntarily continuing to show a movie to an almost empty theater?

      We will do it in the style of James the first. Worked great. If you watch old Soviet movies, the propaganda is way lighter handed and gentler than American woke. Why pump out propaganda if everyone turns it off and no one remembers it?

If allowed to produce movies in a complete vacuum, with no governmental or societal pressures whatsoever, would do the same thing.

          Government pressure made sure to put that bum on top of the operation, and all the non-bums that are making the production possible are crying tears of blood looking at their livelihood disappearing before their very own eyes.

          And the demonstration of that is the alarming, illegitimate and drastic methods used by quasi state tentacles inside Marvel (Human Resources applying “me too”) to shoehorn these people into power. The CEO and board were threatened. They targeted both the corporation and individuals within the corporation, one at a time. Probably the CEO was rather comfortable yielding to those threats, and, no friends to the right, no enemies to the left, saw those threatening him as righteous good guys.

          Theater chains are dying. Theaters are shutting down. This is fine for someone who has a good priestly position, because he was injected into the business from above, and when he destroys the business, will be injected into another, probably completely unrelated, business, from above, and will likely destroy that one also. But it is very very bad for everyone else in the business.

Idk about the CEO or the technical guys, but I really doubt that there is anyone of significance left there who isn’t a true believer.

What matters is two things: the ability to be approved for more loans, and the liquidity in the system to backstop those loans, removing risk.

        This has to do with the situation in South America for the most part, as well as the eccentricities of the Canadian pseudo-prohibition of alcohol.

        It’s not that the Marxists sat in a room and decided to have a beer company. It’s that it’s more or less impossible to sell alcohol as a private corporation in the Americas.
        In Europe we have Heineken, Diageo and a few more, and I’m willing to wager a few clout chips by predicting that sooner rather than later, these too will be as queer as a libtard teacher.

        There are weird exceptions to the state control of alcohol in the Americas. I’m a big fan of CCU, for example. They will never be able to compete with AB-Inbev or whatever you want to call it, because in America, a communist country, the government rules.

        If you want to cope by telling yourself that’s the only reason the scum in charge of AB-Inbev are interested in touching kids, you’re entitled to do that. From a certain standpoint you could reasonably argue that Jeffrey Epstein was in effect a state actor (albeit for Israel, in which case Chomsky has it backwards: America’s a colony of Zion not the other way round) and therefore the blackmail of [insert choice of billionaire scumbag pederast of your choice] was in effect a state influence and everything they did *after* they touched kids was on behalf of the government……… but after a certain point it feels like a bit of a stretch. When Bill Gates pushes poisonous vaccines and hand-waves away objections to AI, it doesn’t feel satisfying to say “well that’s gubmint for yer”.

        As Moldbug used to say about anarcho-capitalists and the rest of the anarchists, something just doesn’t smell right. Yeah sure Tom Woods is an anarchist but he don’t smell like one. Similarly Bill Gates is a commissar, but he don’t smell like one of them either.

Because Netanyahu did not and does not like that, and made minute moves towards independence and Israeli interests and desires, he is being color revolutioned as we speak, by the usual mob of ngo employees.

          Bill Gates is a real capitalist who earned his money, but having earned it, discovered that the merchant class is inherently powerless and low status, so left his business and devoted his fortune to kissing up to power, in order to obtain priestly status. Having become a great and powerful capitalist, he hopes to become a great and powerful priest.

          The 2020 election was similar to a color revolution, but Israel played no role, and Jews, most notably Soros, played surprisingly minor roles. In the color revolution in Israel, the hand of the State Department is plainly visible.

            Chomsky would say “oil”, which he thinks he doesn’t have to explain. I assume you don’t agree with him enough to accept such a weird claim.

            America’s foreign policy is always and everywhere a project to protect the security and regional hegemony of Israel and a cursory glance at the personal connections of the 9/11 conspirators shows a lot of Mossad, almost as much Mossad as found with Silicon Valley and Jeffrey Epstein’s kid-toucher network.

            It’s certainly true that the Lakudniks can’t survive without strongman support from a Donald Trump, which is why they’re actively trying to rig the next election like they rigged the last ten. There’s a very easy litmus test for colour revolution status: does the revolution want diversity and LGBTQ+ shit…. Israel’s an interesting case. Far from wanting diversity, they have racial laws and are actively advancing ethnic cleansing and genocide of arabs. LGBTQ+ shit doesn’t need a colour revolution: the Talmud’s full of it and is in fact the ultimate origin of the idea.

              Recall that the government that was being color revolutioned was in favor of peace with Israel, and the government installed by color revolution in favor of war.

              I would say Harvard and the State Department’s interests in color revolution in Egypt were in substantial part the same as its interests in having the Israeli supreme court exercise sovereign power: The destruction of Israel.

              The color revolutionary movement in Syria was in favor of the extermination of the Alawites and the expulsion of the Christians. The expulsion of Christians from the middle east is a long standing Harvard goal that they have pursued by a wide variety of means in a wide variety of places, Egypt, Iraq and Israel among them. But a Syrian government that exterminates Alawites and expels Christians is going to go after the nearest bunch of Jews once it is done with Alawites and Christians.

              *googles “talmud homosexuality”*

              [Vayikra 18:3] After what is done [referring to homosexuality, bestiality and incest] in Eretz Mitzrayim, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not do;

              [Vayikra 18:22] Thou shalt not lie with zachar, as with isha: it is to’evah (abomination, detestable)

              [Sukkah 29a] The Sages taught that on account of four matters the sun is eclipsed: On account of a president of the court who dies and is not eulogized appropriately, and the eclipse is a type of eulogy by Heaven; on account of a betrothed young woman who screamed in the city that she was being raped and there was no one to rescue her; on account of homosexuality; and on account of two brothers whose blood was spilled as one.

              [Tosefta Kiddushin 5:10] A single man shouldn’t shepherd small cattle, and two single men shouldn’t sleep in one cloak. They said: Yisrael is not suspected of such [bestiality/homosexuality].

              And apparently that’s about all the Talmud has to say on the subject. I found several other search results from contemporary sources, implying that the Talmud says this or that in favor of all manner of perversions, but not a single one with a citation to back it up. I can easily find many of the same sophistic, contortionist claims about the scripture for any other religion, but the literal text says “no, no way, not ever, and don’t even get into a situation where something might suspect you of doing it”.

              It’s mixed in with the usual “Chosen people are above suspicion” crap but what do you expect, it’s Jews, and we aren’t debating whether Judaism permits them to be self-important inbred shitbirds, only whether it permits homosexuality. Survey says: no. Seems pretty consistent with Jim’s stated position on homos, which is that it’s disgusting and antisocial, but also is or should be a nonentity; we don’t think about it, we don’t talk about it, we pretend it doesn’t exist unless we literally can’t ignore it, in which case the sodomites are apt to disappear under mysterious circumstances. See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil — in the original meaning intended by antiquity, not the modern “turn a blind eye” inversion.

              Incidentally, secondary sources say that the Talmud puts lesbianism in a different category of “licentiousness” instead of homosexuality, which is both very funny from a red-pilled point of view and also consistent with Jim’s past statements (no such thing as lesbians). But I either can’t find or can’t understand the primary source, so it might be apocryphal.

              I’m no rabbi, or even a theologist, just some guy with a search engine, but what I’m reading from you appears to be, not derived from the actual Talmud, but from what a bunch of 21st-century fringe Jewish faggots and pederasts and progressive conversos say about the Talmud, which is about as truthful as what those same folks say about anything else.

    A salary and a bank account are a station of authority over how a small slice of the national economy is allocated. Obviously these should never be given to women but at least half of them are, with disastrous effect.

    The collective economic decisions of women are retarded, blowing the majority of the nation’s economic product on consumables that do not generate any value.

    With pussy secured under patriarchy, men want to reinvest their surplus earnings into tools, business ventures, siring more children, etc.

    Women on the other hand waste it all on mimosas, vacation, makeup, and disposable clothing. And then they reach into your wallet and grab yours too. Men in this social environment (“the state of nature”) have to spend more money on frivolous bullshit to chase the pussy and keep it happy.

    Every dollar that you have to spend on a nightclub cover to game sluts because you can’t negotiate a fertile virgin wife directly from under her father’s roof, is an economic command for larger numbers of waitstaff and liquor bottlers to dedicate their finite human labor toward Not Building Bridges. Formerly this was the vice of drunkard sailors and other fringes and dregs of society but now it’s everybody under 30 and many older as well.

    Or beta men just give up and and blow it on all the new Mandalorian LEGO sets and Twitch chat reads because nothing is completely irrational anymore after your clan-writ-large has made it just shy of illegal for you to ever get pussy.

    Extend this effect into every facet of life and you see why it’s now organizationally unthinkable to achieve things that our grandfathers did with simpler technology and less input energy.

        >These guys are acting like they were brave

        I don’t see that. Adrenaline shuts down thoughts of bravery. You just do what has to be done. What I did see was a lot of reminiscence over some of the best and worst times of their lives.

        >How many of these “cold blooded killers” need massive amounts of daily medication just to appear to function?

        Somewhere around 10-20 billion USD per year in drugs, so a lot of them. Very rough estimate though. Most of the psychological problems they have originates from a life time of indoctrination telling them to feel bad for fighting when it feels really, really good to fight the enemy.

        They can’t reconcile the difference and it drives them crazy. Not so dissimilar from how some Christian sect members (gnostics) are anti sex and go crazy and kill a bunch of prostitutes.

        >Tangos that fought them for 20 years, then went right back to living.

        When Tali becomes NEETs because there’s no Americans to fight… we in the West will get some great memes out of it, but I can’t say it’s healthy.

        >How would these guys respond to an occupying force

        If they ever get spiritual approval to shoot back they would love it. Life would have purpose again. The problem is that the preachers all tell them shooting back is wrong and that lying down to die is just. Preachers that do tell them it’s righteous to fight all end up like Waco.

        >They are nothing more than the foot soldiers of feminism, making the world safe for sodomy.

        A fair point, but right now GAE has a monopoly on spiritual approval of violence. Until that’s broken, young men seeking adventure and fighting will trade their values and youth for bad causes. Just is how it is. Ultimately a spiritual problem and we must put blame on the ruling priesthood.

    Here’s a link to a YouTube video that is an excerpt of Joe Rogan talking to the infamous blowhard Eric Weinstein.

    https://youtu.be/l1jTUhwWJYA

    I don’t know enough about physics to accurately gauge whether Weinstein is a complete charlatan, or whether he actually has some good points to make. In my midwit mind, looking at who is opposing him and what they represent, I am inclined to believe that Weinstein is actually on to something but lacks the brain power or some other juju that would make him an actual force to be reckoned with. This video is interesting if only for how it adds some clarity to one small aspect of Harvard as Seminary for Progress.

    I bring him up because he is a second case study in what could be a actual trend of intellectuals, that being ones that are just as much snake oil salesman as the typical Cathedral agent, but for multiple different reasons, were not allowed into the club and therefore are acting out against it. This is relevant to our work here because any kind of elite defection, no matter the motivation, should be something we look at and consider. The first example is Zeihan, though it must be stated that he seems to be on the opposite track, in that he used to be a lone voice in the wilderness crying out, but now he is moving into the fold to be a spokesman for the Polygon. That could be him Buying In, or the In Crowd trying to branch out.

    A possible term for these kinds of defectors could be Blind Seekers. They stumble onto some bedrock truth that shows them that the status quo of the intellectual ecosystem is misguided, incorrect, or deeply flawed, but because they cannot break the programming, because they’ve never been darkly enlightened or red pilled, they flail about clumsily and are not really capable of a cohesive opposition.

    In tactical terms, these blind seekers represent an opportunity for our side. In strategic terms, they are probably helicopter fodder. No matter which way you slice it. I will be up front and say that his Theory of Unified Geometry appeals to my embarrassingly shallow understanding of physics, but that’s just half my revulsion with String Theorists and half my intuition that whatever the Cathedral submits as true is the opposite.

    If anyone is keeping track, that is two additions to the rhetorical framework I have submitted and am awaiting “beer review” from the lads here, which is the method of reading my inanities while sober, again while drunk, then deciding which parts are the worst.

      He did. Best economics around. And the trouble is Joe Rogan, and the IQ gap. Guage theoretical marginal economics is what he is actually talking about, but in the course of explaining what happened to the unification of marginal economics and gauge theory, which is way beyond Joe Rogan and Joe Rogan’s audience, he explains how power works.

        Both could be wrong. Can both be right? KD says smart power hides and dumb power brags. So maybe both right? But if a known midwit can marry opposing positions elegantly, we can confidently state that the marriage may be sound, but it’s not profound.

        Taxonomy is the elephant in our room, Jim. You are probably the greatest living taxonomist, but you’re also the brightest working sociologist, and before ANYONE gets up in arms about the implications of that statement, it’s my observation. Jim, to my knowledge, has never called himself a sociologist, nor would he. But the fact remains that, from the 30k’ level, the one thing we do here is sociology. Leave it to the side.

        Taxonomy matters because it is the footprint of epochs. The Polygon moves heaven and earth to alter linguistic patterns because it has learned from the 19th century that those who decide the names dictate the play long after they are gone. Taxonomy has been under attack, from without and within, for all of our collective lives. Of late I’ve been in the mood to consider Bedrock Principles, and so I keep trying to reduce everything I encounter to same.

        The WQ is the Only Question; if an answer doesn’t touch the WQ, not an answer.

        Labor Theory of Value is the only en vivo theory that matters because it is a Bedrock Assumption (assumption==principle); if you’re argument doesn’t mitigate any possible LTV rebuttal, not an argument.

        Taxonomy is the only battleground that matters; if you can’t rectify names, you’ve lost and the only question is By How Much.

          Yarvin says power hides.

          Weinstein says power brags.

          Everyone knew and boasted about what was said behind closed doors. No one knew and gloated in ignorant (false) humility about what was said behind closed doors (except when being outflanked from the left). Such is the state of American academia in the graduate colleges. The power is extremely informal (Yarvin’s point of view when talking to outsiders for outsiders) and thus hidden, but also a strong torrent of boisterous whispers (Weinstein’s point of view in hindsight).

          >whether Weinstein is a complete charlatan, or whether he actually has some good points to make.

          Now I don’t want to give the impression of being overly harsh on him… I fully understood the unspoken as a semi-insider, but I couldn’t help but consciously prod every single landmine I possibly could. That landed me in a state college instead of a legacy in a private college, cut me off from studying the humanities which landed me in engineering, and it ultimately cut me off from PhD after M.S. All said and done I’m probably a bigger autist, but unfortunately for Weinstein, he comes off as either an autist who couldn’t understand the unspoken (at the time he was a student), or an genuine outsider who had no clue what he was stepping into. Make of that what you will.

        • jim says:

          Weinstein was treating that behavior as unusual and revealing. Would be a more accurate summary of his position that power is mighty tempted to brag, and can easily slip into doing so.

          Sociology is and always has been fake and gay. It’s a purely religious course of progressive religious ritual to preach the one true faith of blank slatism. Originally Marxist, today fully progressive.

          Social life overwhelmingly regulates the behaviour of humans, largely because humans lack the instincts that guide most animal behaviour. Humans therefore depend on social institutions and organizations to inform their decisions and actions. Given the important role organizations play in influencing human action, it is sociology’s task to discover how organizations affect the behaviour of persons, how they are established, how organizations interact with one another, how they decay, and, ultimately, how they disappear. Among the most basic organizational structures are economic, religious, educational, and political institutions, as well as more specialized institutions such as the family, the community, the military, peer groups, clubs, and volunteer associations.

      Blind seekers as you define them have to change; they cannot stay blind seekers for long. When they stumble onto some forbidden truth they commit thought crime by noticing and acknowledging this truth. Then they can either rationalize that truth away and thereby stop being thought criminals or they can keep that truth and look at the flaws of their intellectual ecosystem that clash with whatever truth they have stumbled on.

      If they do the first, they are no longer different from any other adherent of progressivism and we don’t need another name for them. Every progressive’s brain is busy not noticing truth and explaining truth away.

      If they do the latter the flaws and inconsistencies of their intellecual ecosystem will lead them to other forbidden truths. If they persist and live long enough, they’ll join us.

  47. Kunning Drueger says:

    I’d like to elevate this concept/conversation out of the nested depths because it’s stimulating, complicated, and relevant.

    Does Joe Biden have it in him to be a “Pol Pot?” I think the answer is an obvious No. But does he have men or women in his orbit that have this capacity? That is a rather large and disquieting Yes.

    Kamala Harris, like all pet minorities, has a deeply seeded viciousness that could result in a immanentized auto-genocide. Some of the kike advisor types could do it, their tribe loves slaughtering goyim. But the real ones to consider are the trannies.

    JBP has fallen from grace (thanks Jews lol) and has been rightly dragged for his stupid boomer takes. Last year, I did my best to advocate for the parts of him, his corpus, that I thought defensible and valuable. I don’t regret it, and I stand by my final analysis: he’s an excellent university professor that was destroyed by fame. There’s a fascinating rabbit trail in that statement about how the Cathedral has many ways of killing cats, and drowning them in cream is one of them, but let’s leave that to the side.

    JBP has thousands of quotes and excerpts, and a day only has so many minutes wherein one can pretend they aren’t avoiding their workaday job and *contribooting*, so forgive me for paraphrasing and failing to provide a source. During a discussion on fascism, totalitarianism, and historical precedent, JBP made an observation that stuck with me, to the tune of:

    “we have brought women into the tiny, top 1% of high powered, high energy leadership realm, and we maintain that they are all of a homogeneous character, that women will be less violent, more open to compromise, less likely to go to war. As a society we are very sensitive to any man that feels like a new Hitler, but we don’t have the experience, the sense, to detect what a feminine totalitarian would look like, and in this way we may be blind to a new totalitarianism.”

    I might have made that up out of while cloth, if I ever find the OG clip I’ll post it. But let’s pretend I’m not delusional for a (brief) moment. The two most likely vectors for an American Pol Pot are an eggless spinster powered by scorn and varicose veins, or a trannie. There are further divisions nested in those to categories, and all of them have various qualities, attributes, and pathologies conducive to unmitigated disaster.

    There are probably abundant examples, but let’s just start with two, one of each category: Victoria Nuland and that dress stealing faggot who got fired. I posit that either of these, themselves or as representative examples, have what it takes to be an American Pol Pot.

      I’m curious if you know anything about how tyranny’s react to each other? All I’ve seen is from afar. My guess would be that they hate each other and have trouble organizing against anything but a common enemy.

      • Kunning Druegger says:

        By “tyranny’s” did you mean “trannies?”

        Jim’s insight, though very simple, is in my opinion elegant and accurate. Gays coordinate in a big naked pile. This is funny & gross, but it really cuts at the joint. If you ever get familiar with gay culture, you will become uncomfortably aware of two ever present themes: they all fuck each other and they all despise each other. There’s some reformed homo that is now a Catholic of some type that writes a lot about the actual state and nature of faggot communities. I’m not going to look it up but it was linked here last year around this time. His writing is disgusting yet very accurate. Faggots have endless medical issues to compliment their excessive mental issues. Media mavens have to work overtime to portray the gay in a positive way, because once you see them in person, once you see how cruel, reckless, and excessive they are, there’s no way to see anything else but a den of diseased serpents, constantly backbiting, infecting, and diminishing each other. This is why they are so very concerned with access to children: the homo pathogen (homogen, maybe?) is transmitted down generations by molestation. Some men may be born with feminized affect, but I think it’s more often the case that men with very poor impulse control, or very weak dispositions, get ensnared by older predators seeking some antithesis of the “fountain of youth.” They find and defile young boys, who in turn become older predators (if they survive the disease and depression gauntlet) themselves, and in this way the “gay community” flourishes, like zombies in fiction.

        All this to say that trannies are about the gayest thing out there, the hideous realization of the worst it gets. They do not have a long shelf life and work very hard to infect as many as they can until the shape in the mirror catches up with them. This is the faggot to trannie pipeline. Others have done good work on categorizing the two types of trannie (AGPs and twinks, IIRC; one is a pure predator, and the other is just a faggot trying to get access to even more manflesh) but I think there is a third type, as exemplified by Bruce Jenner or Dick Levine or Chris Beck, that is important to note. These types are aware of the exploit made available by the social push to normalize trannies, that being a dumpy, haggard old man with plummeting testosterone and nothing of value to contribute can become the literal belle of the balless and rocket back into relevance and importance. I am not saying that three examples I mentioned aren’t AGPs, particularly Levine, but I nonetheless stand buy the distinction of a potential Third Class.

        I don’t think the twink trannies are a likely source of an American Pol Pot (Pole Not?). The AGPs are absolutely imbued with the requisite cruelty, viciousness, and burning desire to break things, but they also act rashly and are very short sighted (like the dress stealing faggot). So, I think it is the Third Kind, the used up male far past his prime, that represents the likely source of an American Pol Pot. This is all conjecture, it could just as likely be some mulatto or broad, or some accursed coalition of Bioleninist drain blockage material.

  48. falseconvert says:

    Update on my situation.

    I read Deuteronomy 24:1-4.

    “If a man marries a woman who becomes displeasing to him because he finds something indecent about her, and he writes her a certificate of divorce, gives it to her and sends her from his house,

    and if after she leaves his house she becomes the wife of another man,

    and her second husband dislikes her and writes her a certificate of divorce, gives it to her and sends her from his house, or if he dies,

    then her first husband, who divorced her, is not allowed to marry her again after she has been defiled. That would be detestable in the eyes of the Lord. Do not bring sin upon the land the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance.”

    Now, the exact details in my situation are slightly different, because my wife divorced her ex, he did not “find something indecent about her”. And furthermore, I don’t find something displeasing about her either.

    But, it still seems that according to this passage, my wife has been “defiled” by marrying me, and therefore would not be allowed to go back to her ex if I divorced her.

    This seems to quite definitely take “let her go back to her ex” off the table as an option.

    And now that I have married her, I am not allowed to divorce her except for sexual immorality, which she has not committed.

    So I’ve concluded that I must stay with her.

    ———

    The only objection I can think of to the above argument is the fact that sometimes one might have to commit a small sin to avoid a bigger sin.

    Another commenter gave the example of cutting out your eye to stop yourself from sinning. Obviously cutting out your eye is a sin, but since it’s in the service of avoiding a larger sin, it’s permissible — in fact it’s necessary.

    The follow-up point here would be another classic Jimism: “Don’t purity spiral on the exact letter of the law — follow the spirit of the law.”

    So I suppose my open question to anybody who wants to answer is, what is the SPIRIT of the law, from the Bible, on matters of marriage and relationships? What are the core principles — not the exact instructions, but the principles?

    • falseconvert says:

      Addendum: I realise that conveying a “spirit” in prose words might not be possible. Therefore I also welcome answers in the form of poems, songs, videos, artwork, etc.

    • Red says:

      I don’t think any of that applies as she divorced him illegally. In the eyes of God she’s still his property and she should be killed for leaving him. The thing is where not operating in a functioning patriarchy. Unless you got to her first you’re going to end up drinking some shit in your water no matter what you do and her previous husband got fucked by the system.

      Since the root of all these questions comes to down to successful reproduction without cuckoldry, why hasn’t she borne you a child? How long have you been married? And if it’s long, you have to wonder why she’s not making babies with you and if she ever will.

      God wants you to be fruitful and multiply, that’s the ultimate goal. In times like this most of the paths of achieving that goal are less than ideal. I don’t think there’s a right moral answer beyond whatever path is best to for you to form a family with a faithful woman who gives you many children.

      • falseconvert says:

        She hasn’t borne me a child yet because we were long-distance for a long time and when we were together we used contraception, which we only recently stopped doing.

        She’s past the age where she can give me “many children”. I wanted at least 5 children, ideally 8 or 10. The most she has left in her is maybe 3.

        Do you think God would be disappointed to see someone resigning themselves to this sort of fate, giving up on their desire for a large family, for the sake of following the letter of the Bible? Would he view this as purity spiralling?

        How strict about the rules is God? Sometimes I find myself imagining he is extremely strict, whereas actually there’s not that much evidence for this in the Bible. For example the parable of the widow’s mite seem to show that God cares more about the heart and the spirit than technicalities like how much money you donated. It seems he would be more disappointed in someone who denied their heart and spirit for the sake of the letter of the law, than someone who broke the rules but kept their spirit in tact.

        What is your opinion on this?

        • Karl says:

          She hasn’t borne me a child yet because we were long-distance for a long time and when we were together we used contraception, which we only recently stopped doing

          In that case, it is not her fault that she hasn’t borne you a child yet. So stay with her and make her pregnant.

        • Red says:

          The actual letter of the law is that she is an adulteress and you are committing adultery with her. Her first husband owns her, which is what Jim has been saying.

          Personally, I wouldn’t take a woman with kids unless she gave the kids up to relatives and fully committed to her new family as her sole responsibility.

          Do you think God would be disappointed to see someone resigning themselves to this sort of fate, giving up on their desire for a large family, for the sake of following the letter of the Bible? Would he view this as purity spiralling?

          Having seen a lot of “blended” families, everyone one of them was failure. Sometimes a kid was produced, but a woman who blew up one marriage was even more likely to blow up a second one and the production of children in that second marriage was generally limited to just a single child. Maybe you’ll get lucky or maybe your much better at being an alpha than those other dads.

          The only exception to that rule is a guy I know who’s super alpha(pulls women left and right without issues, ripped, and very charming), his wife only had one kid before him and she’s pumping out children as quickly as possible for him. His second son is due to be born next month. He’s very happy. I hope that continues and his wife doesn’t blow up the marriage like she did the first marriage.

          The spirit of all the law is to go forth and be fruitful. The law is a guide on how to that successfully, but the basis for that guide is a patriarchal system, which we currently don’t have. Therefor the letter of the law is not useful as the spirit of the law. You have the pick the path that you think will mostly likely result in you A) Reproducing, B) producing as many children as feasible, C) raising them in an intact family with a obedient and faithful wife who won’t blow up the marriage.

          I very much doubt your wife is obedient and faithful given her track record because if she was she’d still be with her husband. But you know her, if you think she’s fulfill C for you and A and B as well then she’s a good option.

          There’s no right path with a broken system. Remember that the Law was designed to maximize good outcomes, but it never could 100% guarantee them. During the time of Jesus’s ministry he saw Jewish men divorcing their wives for a younger filly after they’d born many children for their husbands. This was in compliance with the letter of the law, but out compliance with the spirit of the law. Children brought up in a situation where the father kick their mother to the curb without cause were likely damaged by it. It harmed their chances of reproduction and made them hate their fathers. Jesus amended the law by saying that divorcing a woman was not permissible expect for sexual sin. If Jews had been following the spirit of the law this would not have been necessary.

          • falseconvert says:

            Regarding our actual relationship, we’re very happy together and there’s absolutely no chance she is cheating, and zero chance she will blow up the marriage. I tried breaking up with her 3 times before and she was always very adamant that we should stay together. She’s not a quitter and she’s not a cheat. I wouldn’t have stayed with her this long if she hadn’t been of good character.

            Yes, she divorced her ex, but without going into details, it wasn’t a case of her blowing anything up.

            If anything, this issue is just me not knowing how to deal with the realities of her children and the culture clash, and looking for a way out.

            She would fulfil a, b, and c. If we get 4 or more kids I would be delighted, as she’s not 18 anymore.

            > Having seen a lot of “blended” families, everyone one of them was failure.

            While I would not marry a woman with a child myself, there are a few such families among my friends’, and they haven’t blown up dramatically, yet.

            The ones I have seen (only a few), sometimes both sides had a child before, and so both were divorced and remarried, and had a child together. That’s how it seems to go.
            In one case the father was the only one with a previous child from a previous marriage, which certainly works better.

            A different case, where the man didn’t have a child, but the woman had multiple, and they were too old to have new children together. Still going, no sign of the marriage ending, but the man is unhappy and feels used by his “family”, who rely on his finances too much when they don’t need to, and are very entitled about it.

I told everyone at the party that if I was in his situation I would have solved it the way I already told you I would. You, rightly, would not solve it that way, but if the wife berates you for neglecting her kids, beat her and tell her she should be greatful every day that you do not do what I would have done.

                  I may be unfairly maligning falseconvert (veeery interesting handle 😉 ), but it’s not like he hasn’t gotten feedback from pretty much every regular and Jim. What’s more, he’s come to a decision, hurray, and now we will hear back after some believable period of time about how it’s going. Of this I am sure.

      I prayed on this, and Hosea was the answer. The ramifications for our actions can be far-reaching in both time and space, and impact many for good or evil.

        Thank you very much for this. I read the passage and it is a good story, relevant to my situation, and illustrates well a point about the spirit of the law.

        The idea of living one’s life as a parable is also an interesting one. I suppose, in the end, we must follow whatever path the Lord sets out for us.

    • Adam says:

      I’ll shoot you straight most of what your writing is hamstering. What are you afraid of? Sounds to me like you are afraid of living. You already know what’s best for you, and what you want to do. All that’s sanding in your way is fear. And you can overcome that any time you chose.

      • falseconvert says:

        I appreciate your earnest attempt to get me to, from your perspective, wake up to what I really want. There is definitely an element of hamstering in my decision making.

        But the hamstering, and the apparent “fear”, in themselves don’t prove any particular outcome is right.

        You can be afraid of throwing away love, and you can also be afraid of staying with somebody you shouldn’t be with.

        I’ve been bouncing ideas of people in this blog, and I’m very grateful to them for engaging with me, to see what ends up resonating the most deeply, and what ends up seeming like something that I just THINK I should want.

        In this case, love can be something you can easily be wrong about, but thinking you’re in a bad situation can be as well. To be honest the Bible and the Biblically-inflected comments have provided the most clarity for me on this issue, because they seem to get to what is deepest and most important.

        Yes, there are a thousand things wrong with the situation I’m in, but I got into this situation for a reason. As others have pointed out, we are far from living in a perfect Christian patriarchy. There are bound to be plenty of men like me who have ended up with women they never would have married if they were born in 1830s England. But the question is, do you try to make things right by throwing away the lemons because you wanted orange juice, or by making the best lemonade you can? And I think the correct answer is to make the lemonade.

      > So I suppose my open question to anybody who wants to answer is, what is the SPIRIT of the law

      Vet me explain zis to you: you vil stay with ein wife, and you vil be happy, ja. You vil have many babies, you vil love her, you vil not vorry about anyvone else, jawohl!

      There are morally-grey issues with regards to your marriage given the past history of your wife, but these are just distractions to what you need to be doing now, which is putting buns in the oven.

      These past few months have been extremely busy for me, and I wish I were able to comment more, but, for goodness’ sake, please stay with her!

      If you leave her, you will regret it for the rest of your life. Sure, marrying a divorcee is morally questionable, but you decided to marry her, and by divorcing her you will not erase your previous sin, you will only compound upon it. Those telling you to divorce your wife because she is a divorcée are similar to faux-pious McCuckstains telling men to break up with their girlfriends or vice versa because they are committing fornication. Just as the solution for young Christians with non-married significant others is to get married, the solution for your predicament is to stick with your current wife and make babies.

      Also, do not worry about your children being half-bloods. There will always be a homeland for white people and white children out there. It may be smaller than what it was in say, 1901, but it will still be there.

      Go to your wife and get busy! The solution to your problem is more sex, not less.

      • falseconvert says:

        I appreciate this comment.

        You’re right. I decided to marry her. Whatever other arguments can be made, there is the basic honour of seeing through what you started, even if you didn’t fully foresee what you were getting into at the time. There is the dignity of accepting the fate you have chosen.

        I told her today that I wanted her to give me a lot of children. She acted mock-shocked but she loved it. She can’t wait to be a mother again.

        • Neofugue says:

          Congratulations to you and your family!!!

          Also, if you wish to handle your false conversion in a tactful manner, you could try to introduce your wife to an Antiochian Orthodox Church. The services are in English, and as the parishes consist of Middle Easterners, your wife may find herself comfortable and at home.

          • falseconvert says:

            That’s such a good book, and a great quote. Monte Cristo was my favourite book from my teenage years.

            Thank you for the recommendation of the Antiochian Orthodox Church. I didn’t know about that and will look into it. I’m planning to very slowly ease her towards Christian ideas, get her comfortable with the general concepts, and draw her attention to the positives in it. It will probably take several years before I can properly run the household as a Christian household, and I’ll need to learn a lot myself before doing so. But I’m hopeful! As you say, attendre et espérer.

            • jim says:

              I am unfamiliar with the Antiochian Church. It is a dissident Church within Greek Orthodoxy. Greek Orthodoxy as a whole is hostile to Christ, Christians and Christianity, as for example its endorsement and support of the persecution of Christians in the Ukraine, but contains powerful dissident Christian elements that do not much like this. I do not know if the Antiochian Orthodox Church is dissenting from globohomo or something else. Quite possibly it is dissenting from Globohomo, but I am reflexively suspicious of anything Greek Orthodox. There is hostile entryism everywhere in the mainstream Churches. Russian Orthodoxy in Russia has benefited hugely by the withdrawal of a huge number Cathedral agents of influence, but there were a lot to withdraw, and Russian Orthodoxy outside Russia is curiously uncommitted to its own continuing existence.

              The converged Churches are dying, and Russian Orthodoxy outside Russia does not know if it wishes to live. I hope it chooses to live.

              There are branches of the Greek Orthodoxy that are very upset by the persecution of Russian Orthodoxy in the Ukraine. The situation is complicated by the fact that Orthodoxy, unlike Roman Catholicism, does not have a single pope and single seat of power. Some of those seats of power are upset and digging in their heels. Some of them, a lot of them, are digging their heels on little issues, the straw that broke the camel’s back, while yielding on no end of major issues.

    Numbers-wise, Ukraine still has a large army. I kept wondering why so many Ukranian men would allow themselves to be drafted, especially when it’s become obvious that doing is has a high probability of death/injury.

    Azov brigade accounts for a decent chunk of that (the stick); makes sense there was also a significant carrot:

    https://kyivindependent.com/ukrainian-soldiers-criticize-changes-to-combat-bonus-pay/

    tl;dr

    “…[combat troops] got an extra Hr 100,000 ($2,700) per month if they served in a designated active combat zone.” That’s a bonus on top of their Hr 12,000-30,000/mo pay ($350-$800). Basic unskilled labor rates in Ukraine are ~$600-$800/mo.

    So serve in a combat zone and get around 4-6x your normal salary. I don’t know how many men that would tempt, but I can see it helping to rationalize being forced to fight. If so, it’ll be interesting to see how the budget cuts affect morale.

    This is not the maneuver of a victorious army.

  50. Basil says:

    Europeans, even when Europe was much healthier, when Europeans had a normal birth rate, an adequate policy and a reasonable ideology, could not solve the Roma issue for centuries, and the Roma did not have a dozen states, some of which live off the oil pipeline and Islam.

    • jim says:

      Roma have a faith that leads to very high fertility.

      So do Muslims (if they followed it, but they have been succumbing to the same ailment as Christians.)

      • Fireball says:

        The gypsies are a very interesting case in Europe. University educated ones have a fertility really close to zero and the more traditional ones that are pretty much just filthy criminal nomads have about 5 or 6 kids. And as it goes from a extreme to the other the fertility changes as you would expect.

        It is a shame no one is allow to actually study them.

        • Red says:

          That’s 5 or 6 kids with terrible hygiene. They probably losing half them, so their fertility is even higher.

          • Fireball says:

            I wish they were. Terrible hygiene for modern standers not historical ones plus free health care and modern medicine helps a lot.

            The greatest hit to fertility is probably the mandatory 9 to 12 years of education combine with the attack to certain traditions like marring their daughters at 12.

      • Upravda says:

        Gypsies do not have a recognizable faith. Nominally, they are of the faith which is in majority in the recent host country. So, a Gypsy with family history from Međimurje will be, say, Ivan (John) Horvat, and he will nominally be a Christian – Roman Catholic. His pal from Bosnia whose ancestors arrived in Međimurje during comrade Tito or more recently will be, say, Muhamed Šećerović, and he will be nominally a Muslim. Their pal in Vojvodina will be Istvan (Steven) Szabo the Catholic, in Serbia proper Jovan (John) Milić the Orthodox, and in Kosovo Ibrahim (Abraham, also a Muslim name) Krasniqi the Muslim.

        No one will ever see them in worshiping house of their nominal religion, except maybe nominal Christians on baptism.

        Are they worshiping someone or something in secret, I wouldn’t know, but I have never heard any such rumors, not even remotely.

        But yes, they tend to have very high fertility rate, and since we all are living in “social countries”, not so high infant mortality. I’ve heard one social worker telling me that their women under 25 are “gynecologically, the most healthy part of the population”. Until, presumably, their bad habits eventually catch up.

        Beside being generally unwashed, almost all of their women of age higher than 16 are fat and ugly. Even if they are not fat, they are still ugly. I can not comprehend from where come all those myths about beautiful Carmens and Esmeraldas. In my entire life I’ve seen just one (1) beautiful gypsy girl, and even she could pass as white (those from Međimurje can pass as white quite often).

        In Croatia, it is not a joke any more when someone says that you can know the day when social allowances are payed by the stat, both for gypsies and whites. By observing male Gypsies going to casinos.

        In recent times, because of enforced education which was always the best contraceptive for all races, sexes, and ethnic groups, their fertility was lowered somewhat. Probably also because Konsumgesellschaft, and because bad habits.

        • The Cominator says:

          Isn’t the gyppo religion some form of Catholicism but they believe that Jesus allowed the gypsies to steal?

          • Some of their oldest traditions like child marriage date back to their origins in the Indian subcontinent. So it is likely that certain Hindu-like practices are still part of their religion.

            • Dharmicreality says:

              To clarify, i just realized it sounds like I am blaming Hinduism for their bad habits, I don’t think that their stealing habits necessarily come from religious belief but rather their nomadic lifestyle and racial bastardization and that any “religious” justification is ex-post-facto.

      Another Basil shill post where he literally tells the opposite of the truth because, while he pretends to support Russians and Europeans, in truth he wants to murder every single Russian and European he and his buddies can get their hands on.

      There has never been a Roma issue in Europe, there is a Roma issue now like Americans have a nigger issue now, but there wasn’t any nigger issue and there wasn’t any Roma issue, when white men weren’t targeted by feds like you to prevent them from setting things right because you want to destroy them.

      Gypsies are a problem today because when you try to correct their criminality and misbehavior the state destroys you, just like Amerikaners have a problem with niggers today because when they try to defend themselves and solve their misbehavior the state destroys them. There is no Roma problem, there is no nigger problem, there is a Basil problem and every Basil needs to be exterminated ASAP to solve the real problem. Cominator is well versed on the solution.

            Don’t know about black people in America, or any other such minority anywhere else, but I do know a solution for Gypsies in Europe.

            And, no, it is not some kind of comination, nor helicoptering, or anything like that.

            It is reasonable and humane.

            Simply: Let Gypsies be Gypsies.

            Much of the trouble with them stems from 18th century rulers, Habsburgs here, who tried to “settle” them, make them “useful” (quotations on purpose), “integrate” them, force them to “enjoy the civilization”, and such disillusions. Those politics continued to present times, and were even accelerated after final conversion of our rulers to progressivism during last few cuckservative governments. So, today, most of Gypsies live off welfare.

            Secondary cause of troubles with Gypsies is modern industrial civilization which rendered obsolete many of their former artisan skills. However, it is obvious that this cause can be alleviated very easily, without welfare state and its clerks.

            So, as first, let them live as they have always lived. That includes marrying off 12-years olds, and exactly as much health care as they pay for it. Do not send them social workers nor police – except when conflicts include “gadjo” folks. For all other cases, let them settle conflicts among themselves.

            Regarding secondary cause, some of them actually did manage to adapt to modern age, and not just as those very few famous musicians. Such Gypsies tend to be quite good at collecting and recycling waste, especially metals, some of them are good in forestry, etc. So, they can be useful to themselves and others. If not for the welfare, many other would be useful because they’d had to.

            But, our progressives say Big “NO!”. You see, if some Gypsy is good in recycling metal, why would we let him be “victim” of such “stereotypes”? It is “oppressive” if he can raise his family in such a way! It is surely better if we can put him and his family to welfare until he “pulls himself together” (that is, never). And his daughter will surely be much better if studying sociology and being “liberated” before “settling down”. His son might became a thug, having nothing better to do, but it’s price worth paying for “fighting prejudices”.

            So, yes, in the end, Gypsies are not a problem. Our progressives are the problem.

            • Red says:

              You’re fucking retarded. Gypsies being Gypsies means they’re going to steal, pickpocket, and destroy everything around them. Deport them.

              • Upravda says:

                Gypsies steal and pickpocket because allowed to do so. They didn’t when weren’t allowed, be that under Maria Theresa, comrade Tito or President Tuđman. It is that simple. They were useful when forced to be useful.

                Nowadays, the regime will not send police to them because progress, and that same police is instructed to hinder any attempt of self-defense among members of host nation.

                By eliminating all Gypsies you would not solve any of the problem we have because progressives would immediately find another “victims” in need of “integration”.

                I guess they might be deported… where, exactly? Back to India? How, exactly? It might be the best solution, but before that we have to answer those pesky questions.

                P.S. Your mom is retarded.

          • Basil says:

            Roma should leave, but given the political and ideological environment, it will be necessary to act more carefully. We deport criminals to some country in Africa that agrees to accept them. For gypsies without a criminal past, we offer to move, and for the renunciation of citizenship/moving we pay a small amount for settling in a new place. Along the way, we create problems for them by preventing them from getting married at 12, fining them for their garbage problems, and encouraging them in every possible way to agree to the offer to resettle in South Sudan.

            Now, the gypsy minority has been saved from the horrors of racism and xenophobia and can now enjoy an eco-friendly, diverse environment.

            • Western Taliban says:

              Sounds similar to what someone like Lincoln the Tyrant would have said about niggers and we already know what his ideological descendant Yankees have turned it into.

              Which is exactly what you want, you want to murder and rob whites to pay ransom/reparation to gypsies, you want to prevent them from getting married at 12 because you want feminism for everyone and you’ll fine them for their garbage problems like niggers are allegedly fined for their garbage problems in America, only you will murder whites who try to defend themselves while the gypsies laugh at the piece of paper and run amok.

              Now I know why you mentioned the “Roma problem”, you are making shill arguments to fully niggerize them, turning them from a small nuisance into a lethal scourge that eats entire cities and further displace and destroy whites.

              • Basil says:

                I would like to throw the gypsies into the sea without any compensation, but I’m smart enough to understand that this guarantees that my country will be declared a new Third Reich (And the USA, and China, and Russia, and whoever), which will create more problems than solve and put my country at a disadvantage.

                I don’t want gypsies to get married at 12 because I don’t want new gypsies born in my country, and I also want to create an incentive for them to move to Africa.

              On the other hand, fining them for marrying off their 12-years old daughters is exactly one of the things that make them problematic, because it does not let them to be Gypsies.

              But, how old are you? Twelve? With brown uniforms fascination, perhaps? I mean, resettling on Madagascar and all that..?

              Why on this good Earth would any African nation agree to accept Gypsies or any other foreigners?!? Especially criminal ones?!? What the heck has South Sudan to do with Gypsies? Do you intend to occupy, say, South Sudan, Madagascar, or Zambia and then enforce deportation of Gypsies there? Are you nuts? 🙂

              You could also propose to resettle them in Sweden. At least Gypsies do live in Sweden for a last few centuries, unlike sub-Saharan Africa…

              On a second thought, it would probably be much easier to convince Swedes, or Sanna Marin, to accept Gypsies, than Kenneth Kaunda. 🙂

                There are enough governments in Africa that would be willing to negotiate such agreements at a modest price. Much more modest than the one that is already being paid for the presence of gypsies in your home.

        I’ve been chewing on a potentially strange line of thought. War is likely to get too costly for state actors to put boots on the ground thanks to IEW, but the necessity of warfare for the masculine spirit to flourish remains. Therefore ritualized warfare (policing) becomes a remaining outlet for the fighting spirit. Policing has just the right level of combat and cost ratio.

        Thank god for gypsies and niggers! Make the inner cities free range safaris again. Concrete jungles ready for battle and conquest. Right now the herds are a bit large, but don’t crack down too harshly… we need to keep the wild life numbers sustainable for future generations.

          The most subversive lie is to make true statements in the wrong context, because the lie is a wrinkle in things left unspoken rather than a blemish on what was spoken. And the space of things left unspoken is a dark infinite void where demons hide.

                That’s kind of the point. Japan can’t leave without becoming China’s bitch and they really don’t want to be China’s bitch. Its ones thing to be ruled by the superior white man and quite enough to be ruled by Japan’s oldest and most hated foe.

                Also, the US Navy could easily sink all the shipping into Japan. Japan really needs to ramp up their air and naval capacity quite a bit to go either independent or becoming a Chinese Bottom Bitch. KSM leaving is very odd. I’m surprised the GAE basically did nothing about it. I’m not sure if they didn’t see it coming or their planned Color Revolution was detected and destroyed before it could get underway.

                KSM has a working intelligence branch which bribes a lot of US officials for intel. The GAE still has the capabilities of making the sea born transport of oil from the Middle East go away. If things get really bad that might happen.

                  No need for that.
                  GAE are losing cohesion, as there are a lot of factions fighting for power which result in opportunities to jump ship.
                  Iran crushed the color revolution.
                  Israel’s Netanyahu is building personal army “National Guard” to purge the cathedral agents in the state.
                  SA purged the cathedral agents long time ago when MBS squeezed the elites especially the “western connected” ones.
                  I think as GAE elite cohesion fall, each country can play different factions against each other.
                  Just now someone in GAE “approved” japan buying oil from russia while ignoring the “price cap”
                  Japan need oil and can get it from russia.
                  If you ignore GAE, i can easily see japan plus russia vs china.

    Again, a post consisting entirely of assertions without evidence.

    The assertions consist entirely of authorial perceptions that are at complete odds with measurable battlefield results. No explanation for the discrepancy is provided. There is simply the expectation that since this author has made a statement, the statement will be believed.

    To pick one easily visible counter example, the Russian missile barrages have been too widely spaced to put the target systems down for any effective length of time; instead they pause for long enough for the target engineers to get things up and running again every time. It’s like breeding antibiotic resistance: if you keep pausing the treatment before the target is fully eliminated, the survivors are better adapted and eventually the attack becomes worthless. The net effect is that Russia spends ammunition to train its targets in how to survive and endure the attacks, rather than for victory.

    If Russia had the ammunition in sufficient quantities to put all target systems down, and keep them down for an extended period of time, it would make zero military sense to not do so, as that would result in a lesser total military effort. Russia, as demonstrated by the battlefield, is therefore unable to engage in such behavior.

    • jim says:

      It is completely obvious that the Russians can strike deeply into the Ukrainian better than the Ukraine. Russian deep strikes consist of sending in enough drones to overwhelm Ukrainian air defense. Ukrainian deep strikes consist of men out of uniform and men wearing Russian uniforms.

      How is Crimean bridge over which most Russian supplies going? Electricity and water works in Russian controlled areas, erratic in Crimean controlled areas. It is not as if the Ukrainians are not trying – they have been shelling civilian areas when in range. Ukrainians were shelling the nuclear power plant that supplies most of the power to Russian controlled areas and its waste dump until they were pushed back. The Russians downed the spy drone because Americans have been using spy drones to guide sea bomb drones to the port. The port still works, and since the drone was downed, not been attacked.

      Ukrainians have long been promising “the greatest counteroffensive”, which looks like its goal is likely to be the recovery of Mariupol, thus bisecting Russian held territory. Presumably it will be launched when the ground dries out in few weeks. If postponed again, they are out. If they fail to reach Mariupol, out eventually, but not out so long has they have advanced some way to Mariupol.

    • embeveraged commuter says:

      M8 I’ve heard many stories of NATO wunderwaffe, but none of them involved equipment that replicates by mitosis and evolves an immunity to missiles.

      Perhaps Russians should also refrain from shooting Ukranian soldiers, less they evolve bulletproof skin and eyes with thermal vision.

      Perhaps also by your logic, the stories of Russia being down to their last dozen missiles for the last year were all true, and the rate of missile attacks is limited by the reproduction rate of these 6 breeding couples.

      In reality, NATO is rapidly burning through a limited supply of Ukrainian conscripts and stockpiled equipment. Whatever they may learn in the process of being blown up will do little to compensate.

      Hitler declared himself not a Catholic but a German Christian. German Christian not a generic description, it was the name of a Church descended from Lutherism that was losing its last shreds of Christianity, and had been evolving into something very like Nazism long before Hitler.

      Hitler was able to hit the ground running because he had a whole lot of believers ready to roll. Lutherism had long been evolving into Nazism, just as Harvard Woke is the post Christian descendant of Puritanism.

  55. blind archer says:

    Better polygamy solution:
    Option 1.
    A woman who is born of a man in your group and raised by a man in your group can only become first wives. Naturally, women who have grown up outside your group are not affected, and your men have the right to polygamy with women they have found on the side. Women are lower than men, but our women are higher than any other women.
    Option 2.
    The man must pay for the second, third, and subsequent wives of the group, and the amount of the payment must depend on what number the wife has and how many adult males in the group have now never been married. The amount is distributed among men who do not have wives. This will help these men either find wives on the side, or rot in their mother’s basements more comfortably.

    I don’t like the solution of strict monogamy because we limit the fertility of our best men to the fertility of their wives.
    I don’t like the solution, when polygamy is de-fatco present, but remains illegal and everyone turns a blind eye to it. I want social norms and the law not to come into such a clear conflict.

    • Adam says:

      Other than cases where the wife dies for one reason or another, why complicate things? Simple is better. It is very common among deeply religious rural families today for a man to have 15-20 children by the same wife. Paternal investment is also critical in developing children into adults capable of reaching their potential. Fathers only have so much time in a day.

      • Western Taliban says:

        it is very common among deeply religious rural families today for a man to have 15-20 children by the same wife.

        What do you mean 15-20 children by the same wife? Is this a typo? We are going to need evidence for this claim, it sounds extremely far-fetched. It’s at the level of “cow farts are going to change the weather and kill us all”.

        You say it is very common, then the evidence must be very common. Please provide some evidence.

        • Adam says:

          My neighbors growing up had 18 kids in the family, my ex-wife has 10 brothers and sisters, an in-law has 14. These are all Lutheran families in rural upper midwest. Many mothers have grandchildren the same age as their youngest children.

          • Western Taliban says:

            Unfortunately I can’t ask for more information if you’re going with this route, because you’d be doxxing yourself. In this case I cannot “trust you bro”, even if you’re a fellow in this blog, I just cannot believe it. My grandmother had a lot of brothers, but they were not 10 and considering the sociopolitical context (coverture) of the country at the time and the family lineage, overcoming this number is hard enough. Then you go as high as 18 and you claim it’s very common, impossible.

            I have never seen or heard or read of this in my entire life, it’s the first time I hear these numbers, even by historical records. 10 is more acceptable, 18 is like talking about talking cats. Claiming it’s very common anywhere today is even more unbelievable. I don’t think the Taliban have an average of 15-20 kids, I don’t think the wildest niggers reach these numbers.

            I really hope every thing you said is true, in which case I’m happy for you to live in such a place, but I just cannot believe it if I don’t see solid evidence.

              There is only one place on the entire planet where families can have 10-20 kids that all have an excellent chance of growing up and having big families of their own: the United States heartland. The key ingredients are European stock, monotheistic socio-cultural givens, and abundant resources. You don’t have to believe him, or me, but your belief is irrelevant to reality. I completely buy that Europe has not only lost the social technology of big families, but also the interpretive framework for conceptualizing big families. In the US, anyone who’s lived in white dominated communities with abundant churches and a lack of section 8 brown wave has seen scores of families with 8-15 kids. Again, it’s a commonplace rarity, just like trannies in blue cities or cowboy niggers in Texas.

              • Adam says:

                As far as social technologies in the places I am aware if, children are part of holiness. The females compete for status among each other to see who can have the most kids.

            • Adam says:

              It should not be hard to find concrete evidence of this online, but I cannot provide proof obviously. These are small towns, one stoplight in 50 square miles. It is all farmland in between. The churches are Apostolic and Laestadian Lutheran, and they are hostile to outsiders. Anyone not born in the church is a “un” as in un-believer. Homes do not have TVs, girls cannot wear makeup or have piercings etc. At least 30 years ago families would still dis-own badly behaved girls from time to time.

              I know personally of these towns in Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan.

              Women there give birth until the mid 40s in these families. It is not so hard to do at that age so long as you never stop having kids. My mother in law had her last at 46.

              My paternal grandmother had fifteen kids, my maternal grandmother nine. My neighbor has sixteen, though he is a polygamist with two wives kept separately. His eldest daughter, also my neighbor, only three kids due to her husband’s beta servitude. He asks us, his neighbors, to convince his wife and master to allow him another child rather than just put the child into her as God intended.

              I have six children and am above average for the area. Typical families here are four but their are other’s with six, the most after the polygamist is eight. According to the census only the Amish rival this area for children per woman so I would guess that the prior anecdote, fifteen or so being common, is not fully accurate.

        • Kunning Drueger says:

          15-20 is common on the rare side, meaning you will see at least one of those high powered sperm slingers with his dogged wife and Econoline van at any “real” church, so, common in the sense that there are trannies “everywhere.” Use the search term “quiverfull” to see pictures of massive white families mixed in with endless NPR articles about how these are somehow “dangerous for America.” In my estimation, these quiverfull families are a meme multiplier because their presence can stimulate other couples to have 4-6 instead of 2-3.

          I saved the charts/graphics but I can’t find the original tweet unfortunately, but someone recently did a trend showing that conservative families are growing, fewer women are going to college, fewer men are relocating to cities, all this in the heartland. On the coasts, the general trend is fewer children, but when you zoom in to state and county level, it’s white liberals and minorities whose TFR is dropping, while conservative TFR is climbing. Whites went into TFR decline starting in 70s/80s, and over ~30 years they bottomed out. Now it seems “stable” but this is a result of white liberals going barren intentionally as white conservatives are slowly but surely turning it around.

          Demographics are destiny, but it’s not a simple situation, the game keeps going and data is just a snapshot. Society and culture is like a series of concurrent games of tug of war, and most commentary boils down to “remember that match we lost” or “there was this one game that went like so and so” but the games continue without abating. We haven’t won, but we haven’t lost, because the game is ongoing. We need to keep tugging, keep encouraging other people to tug, and contributing to future matches and tuggers. The migrants, negros, and mystery meats re all in TFR freefall, going through what whites went through decades ago. We need to dig in, pivot, and drive, because everything you see around is the product of some set of decisions made many years before, and the decisions we make now are moving the pieces in a game that has yet to start.

      The problem becomes a great muddying of your blood. Moslems are still profoundly fucked from their absorbtion of east african blood. Mormons did better, siphon off women of white american stock, until the CIA forced them to accept all the other demographics we are wonderfully enjoying in our diverse paradise. China has a long history in fact of the conquering people turning into rice eating eunuchs within a few generations, in fact it was explicit policy to give as many young women to the bordering warrior peoples as possible, to dilute their blood. Mao offered to Kissenger to deliver America 10 million Han women, if you read the interview transcript he actually kept pushing this idea after the initial rebuke! Han women can be considered a sort of bioweapon.

      The purest aryan practice is no breeding with the enslaved peoples, and patriarchal lineage through one woman. This, combined with the cauldron of war, seems to produce the absolute best of men. Maybe now with our knowledge of the genome and more knowledge of breeding in general, different systems can emerge, but I am not sure we can successfully coordinate such a thing as our breeding to such a fine degree as would be necessary.

The key test is whether the FBI and others are still running cover for them, suppressing white male freedom of association for either offense or defense while proving strangely incompetent at finding leftist violence. So far they are.

          I see the troon’s school murders moved us one step closer to a preference cascade, but only one step. The cathedral’s best play here (if they could be rational about it, an open question) is for the media to go silent on the story long enough for the heat to die down. Then back at the troon demands and rallies like nothing ever happened.

    Our GDP is fake because it is gay.

  59. Djinn says:

    The problem isn’t the means of production, the problem is the means of reproduction. The problem, in short, is pussy.

    Socialism causes scarcity – always has, always will. And we’ve socialized pussy. Like taxes, it’s progressive. The more successful you are, the more it costs.

    And the more this key element in the male reward system costs, the less the most capable will invest in achievement, whether that’s building a ship or writing a symphony.

    And yet, this is of course, this problem is invisible, because like any socialized commodity, the more we distort the incentives, the more we talk about the very thing we’re dis-incentivizing – just like Soviet propagandists fetishes the output of tractors or fertilizer or shoes -while demoralized citizens go without essential goods.

    Pussy is visible everywhere – in movies, in TV, on OnlyFans, in porn – and yet sex is nowhere.

    The distortions are so deep that it’s difficult for anyone from inside the system to fully understand, but we can see some of this.

    Gay marriage, for example, turns all marriage into gay marriage.

    Porn – both on Pornhub and in mainstream movies and television – turn sex into performative mutual masturbation, denying women the unconditional acceptance of their sexuality needed to be sexual.

    Consent turns even married women into whores – who must constantly calibrate whether they’re getting ‘value’ for a decision to have sex – in order to escape being sluts who do not value sex at all.

    Abortion and birth control disconnect the sexual act from reproduction, and, ultimately a focus on the need for the productivity to provide, a focus on what matters to create better material conditions.

    All of this turns sex into a relationship among people who are the same but not equal – an exchange of power, gay sex – rather than a relationship between people who are equal but not the same, heterosexual sex – a natural expression of what men and women are.

    Pussy becomes something women have, rather a core part of what they are. Every woman becomes trans. Fucking becomes, not a natural part of a relationship between men and women.

    It makes the natural unnatural: normal sex becomes an extreme fetish – nothing is more transgressive than the ‘breeding,’ ‘consensual non-consensual’ and ‘creampie’ kinks — rather than an inevitable consequence of cohabitation between a man and woman.

    All of these are grave distortions.

    And when the value system of a society is distorted, leads to misallocation of resources, dampening innovation, and affecting the overall health of the economy.

    The disproportionate cost of sex for more successful men dis-incentivizing them from pursuing success and taking risks, further exacerbating the issue. It discourages less successful men from making an effort to be successful at all – whether that’s fixing their fence or contributing to mutual defense.

    After all, the exorbitant costs of sex – both inside and outside relationships – means they have to be increasingly restrained in their efforts to get any at all, the more resources they have. The more it costs, the less, ultimately, we have.

    This leads to a cascading effect, where capable men might disengage from the economy and society, adversely impacting GDP and industrial capacity, and through lack of effort become increasingly less capable.

    In short, no pussy, no ships or shopping malls.

    • SJ says:

      It’s way simpler than that. The default state is matriarchy, where the women are all free game. The biggest problem with game is the logistics, which requires massive amounts of time spent meeting new women to keep your slut queue full. So men are left with a choice of spending the time building, a career, a home, a garden, a business, whatever, or they can spend that time chasing pussy. Women are going to be getting fked by the men who are chasing pussy.

      So either chase pussy to bang matriarchal sluts or build something so that you can pick up the used up leftovers after she’s a thirty year old single mom. Or just check out and don’t try to chase pussy because you just give up and are a give up loser, a total loser, and then hamster brain how you’re actually a winner with no sluts, no pussy, no home, no garden, no business, nothing at all. Many men do the latter then proclaim they are better than the rest of us.

      Patriarchy allows men to build while the building allows them a young virgin wife. If her father is in charge of what men gets to fck her then he will tend to pick a man who has been building, successfully. If she is allowed to pick she will pick whatever man with preselection is sexualizing with her at the moment her feelings are making her horny.

      Patriarchy results in men building, matriarchy results in men spending all their time chasing tail and building nothing. In the matriarchy woman do all the work, women do all the child rearing, men lounge around and goof off when not stopping by for a booty call. Everyone lives in a mud hut and the only man in the children’s lives are their uncles.

      This was common knowledge only sixty years ago.

      Patriarchy means rule by fathers. It does not mean that women are somehow incentived to make good decisions, or somehow taught how to do so, or that they freeze their eggs and wait until they are post-menopausal so that they are slightly more rational to make the choice of breeding partner. It is not up to women to do anything for patriarchy to take effect it is up to fathers. It is men’s fault that they gave up the patriarchy, that they did so for pornography, because pornography convinced every man that he could have sex with a bunch of sluts if only we stopped controlling women. To bring back patriarchy is simple, fathers assert their rule.

      • Djinn says:

        Actually, it’s way simpler than that: “American GDP is fake and gay.”

        It’s fake because it’s gay, it’s gay because it’s fake.

        Because it’s fake, women can not be controlled. The economic incentive for women to cooperate is gone.

          The other way around. That marriage is fake and gay reduces real GDP. If no prospect of wife and children, why aspire to a home and garden. Might as well play video games and watch porn in your single mother’s basement. GDP is falling for several reasons, another big one being overproduction of priests – academia is inherently composed of priests, who can only train people in priesting, and artificially boosting the status of academic credentials destroys apprenticeship, which the only way to transmit the productive skills of the old to the young. Another one being the regulatory state. I recommend the older corporate form, where regulatory oversight was applied once and approval for certain specific activities given forever, instead of the corporation being forever required to get endless approvals all the time.

          These factors are an embarrassment, implying that something has gone terribly wrong, so the statistics bureaus lie. Much as the Soviet Union lied that socialism was working great.

              You’ve articulated, in great detail, a single pillar of the WQ as Only Question argument here. I maintain that it’s The Core Question, meaning an solution, proposition, etc, that does not address the WQ is by nature and incomplete measure, though of course there’s a wide gulf between “fix elections with paper ballots” and “defenestrate every federal bureaucrat in the name of Thomas Jefferson.” Both do not really address the WQ, so neither are Core Solutions, but both have some value, some clean up of the code, in a sense. The WQ is about source code in the social OS. Cleaning up higher level programming can do many things, but it’s raw efficacy could maybe be assessed by how much it makes it easier for any thinking normal to see how integral the WQ is to all of what ails us.

              The closer the uninitiated get to the WQ, the more unthinkable the environment becomes, so there is utility to “half measures” in that regard, but the danger is in doing UI updates and cleanups and believing a problem has been solved.

      • jim says:

        > To bring back patriarchy is simple, fathers assert their rule.

        Not quite that simple. After the woman has sex, she has to be stuck with the first man she has sex with. Which requires husbands to rule. Rule of the father only works if the father can and must irrevocably transfer all his power to the husband. (Old Testament system, where marriage worked like a sale, and had the legal form the sale of a cow. Obviously not the same as the sale of cow, but the same in that the family of the husband permanently and irrevocably gains all rights and power, and the family of the father permanently and irrevocably loses all rights and power.)

        Inevitably a quite large proportion of young virgins are going to be abducted and “abducted”, and we have to regularize the outcome of those “abductions” so that both parties are stuck with the result. (Or executed if they are disinclined to be stuck.)

        The wife has the duty of obedience and chastity, and the husband has the duty of care. We have to empower the husband to ensure obedience. (1790s Australia had public floggings administered by the authorities if the husband had problems) and we have to enforce the duty of care. Old Testament standard was that husband lost all power and rights if he failed in the duty of care. This seems a bit weak to me.

        What if the father fails in the duty of care? It seems have been an old Testament practice to acquire female orphans and abandoned female children, and give them to your female kin to be raised as wives for oneself or one’s sons. Our records of aristocratic marriages in old England indicate something similar was happening to orphaned heiresses, who were hot property. Presumably orphaned and abandoned paupers came cheaper.

        • SJ says:

          Yes husbands must assert their authority and have the backing of their tribe. The tribe I belong to raises submissive chaste women who are taught to serve a man, are married off as young virgins, yet the husbands all too often fall to assert their authority. The woman can’t obey if the man does not command.

          I wonder what it will take for men to realize that they need to hand their daughter to her husband. That she need not be consulted, and that acting an abduction will allow the woman to adapt to her new tribe quickly. I see men in my community trying to argue with, plead with, their daughters placing themselves below her through such submissive action.

          I don’t know which could be solved first? The father asserts his ownership of his daughter and grants that authority to her husband, when he finds her one or that the husband asserts his ownership over his wife. I’m going with the latter, and then should I have any daughters I will give them to their husband and give him authority over her.

        You know that isn’t the only option. As a man, you can date younger, which means you can build yourself up to be successful and then marry a younger woman who hasn’t wasted her youth on cads. Even today this is possible, just not the norm that is broadcasted in media.

        And even if you do build yourself up and somehow find you cannot find a suitable woman, then you can just take that accumulated wealth, move to a cheaper country to live, and retire early and livie that cad lifestyle you forgoed in your youth to build yourself up. So the opportunity cost is not completely wasted in that scenario, just delayed.

        • SJ says:

          Without experience banging sluts it’s hard to pick up young girls. But this reminds me of another problem with the matriarchy, which is that women think a man with nothing to lose is the confident alpha compared to the man with something to lose. I did pick a young wife in my thirties, but I was able to pick a young beautiful slut to add to my booty call list because I had nothing to lose. Had I something to lose I would not have been able to act with such sheer recklessness and would not have appeared as alpha to the aforementioned and not quite so young slut that is my wife and mother of my children.

          Women’s feral instincts, also known as her tingles, communicate to her that the homeless couch surfing drug addict is a confident alpha male, while the man with a job, car, and house is an unconfident submissive male. One acts as if he has nothing to lose, because he has nothing to lose, while the other can fake it but it cannot be true.

          Alas, another issue with the WP.

          I would, and have, advised any man who wants to mimic what I have already done and be a middle aged man banging teenage and early twenties girls, and marrying the best one of them, that they need to start picking up women yesterday. The more experience the better, the more confidence passing a shit test the better, and the more preselection the better. Women are not attracted to money or status, they are attracted to game, preselection, and confidence. A woman thinks the man with nothing to lose is a confident sexy winner and she wants to be number one on his booty call list while the man with something to lose she wants to marry after she is a thirty year old single mom.

          • Roger Williams says:

            Slightly disagree. It’s not about something to lose or not. It’s about having a “IDGAF” mentality that women eat up. When you literally don’t give a shit if a chick drops off and stops texting you back because you have so many options, she senses that and eats it up.

            I’d argue acquiring wealth can give you that IDGAF mentality that is needed, but I agree not at the expense of experience. I think the correct approach is trying to maintain a balance. Not going too far spending 100% of your time gaming, but also not just singly focusing on money to the detriment of much needed experience slaying pussy.

            The problem with your first argument is that any man can easily have a job, a car and a house, if he is willing to be an insecure submissive faggot. Having a job, a car and a house in this society doesn’t mean anything positive, most men with jobs, cars and houses are what KD calls Thrall White, they’re normies and they’re extremely slavish, very effeminate, borderline faggots. It is natural that women do not experience tingles from faggots.

            The challenge is to be a masculine man with a job, which you will have to provide to yourself, a car and a house. And most self-employed men live a lot more like they have nothing to lose, they are the yeomen of today, because they don’t obtain what they have from submission or live their lives as slaves to others, they make their own life with their own skills and have a completely different mentality towards life. There is no need to fear when you are willing to fight, if your job, your car and your house are more valuable to you than your masculinity, you’re unmistakably a faggot and a slave.

            I’m willing to bet most people in reactionary circles are self-employed or autonomous to a very high degree, this is why they can stomach the truth, they are not paid to avoid it, they didn’t accept soul slavery for money.

            Anglin cannot have a job, a car or a house in the US under his own name because he wouldn’t take the ticket. He is a million times more alpha and a superior man than the 99% of faggots who do have jobs, cars and houses.

Everyone else was slow cooked frog, and I was the frog dropped into the frying pan. I did not have the ideological framework I have now, and I knew what was expected of me, but it felt ridiculous to pretend to madness, silly to be Havel’s Greengrocer. I did not have a coherent critique of the environment in which I found myself, I would not have used the words I am using now, did not have the words I am using now, but it just felt very wrong. I eventually gave up on having a regular job, which was relief. And since I gave up on having a regular job, the madness and evil have doubled down to ever greater heights of absurdity, malice, and evil. I am safely far from all that, and very comfortable, having carved out a little island of sanity embedded in locales more tolerant of sanity, but the conditions of my sons are somewhat more complicated, and I am deeply troubled by their very grave troubles, though they have taken self defensive actions similar to my own.

        ‘To bring back patriarchy is simple, fathers assert their rule.’

        And how will you do that? Short of Christ’s return? The dads of boys have no more power in the modern gynarchy than do their sons. They exist and relate (or not) at the pleasure of women, their ‘justice system’ and their gyno-government. Mom’s in charge now and has been for a long time.

        ALL your institutions are gynocentric and gynocratic, have been for decades. Men didn’t check out of Bitchdom (Amerika, Britain, Australia, NZ, Canada) because of porno. That’s the neocon simp’s explanation, normie’s con, oh look those bestial men ruined everything again.

        Men checked out — and you ain’t seen nothing yet — due to fifty years of tyrannical Total Feminism, which was embraced most fervently by the very dads of daughters that you are expecting, somehow, to establish ‘patriarchy’.

        The past decades, those daughter-daddies have been the very beating heart of the gynarchy. Such a deal! Satan (via government and society) offers dads the assurance that their precious princess will be a first-class citizen, empowered and entitled and privileged FAR beyond what is available to mere boys and men.

        The State becomes co-daddy and vastly favors females over males in every aspect of life. The State allies with daddy to promote and produce The Empowered Career Woman, hateful to God and absolute poison to civilization. After five years of Whore College where she is awarded the credentials to be Empowered Career Woman, off she goes on her fabulous family-and-culture-destroying Career.

        But . . . such a deal! Financially, Daughter Daddy is off the hook lifelong for the care, feeding, and housing of his princess . . . the State is her husband now, paying her a wage not to please God and not to continue civilization by having the babies of some second-class citizenship ‘male’, who she well-knows by late childhood is a creature far inferior to herself. Because everybody in her life tells her so, daily.

        Meanwhile daddy clings on to princess as ‘his’ lifelong in this strange, unhealthy, and very common form of modern ‘marriage’.

        In a Scriptural and trad society, daughter-daddy is on the hook LIFELONG for daughter’s expenses and upkeep UNLESS she is married off young to some promising man. And that is how you ‘create patriarchy’. Not by whining about porno while crushing the nation’s sons under the totalitarianism of feminism.

        In our glorious new gynarchy, princess don’t need no man now! . . . and how very pleased that makes proud daddy and the State. To say nothing of satan and his legions, whose idea it all was.

        “The default state is matriarchy”

        I respectfully disagree. Your broader point has merit but I believe we need a clearer view of matriarchy.

        There can be no real matriarchy without patrirchy, no real power for women without strong men.

        The problem isn’t matriarchy, the problem is, actually, a lack of matriarchs (and patriarchs). Female power in our society is unstructured and undisciplined, and thus, at bottom, powerless and destructive.

        The Karens of our age aren’t matriarchs, they are the very opposite of a matriarch. They are ridiculous and tyrannical and, yes, largely barren.

        They are ridiculous and tyrannical because women need to be fucked, and want to be fucked by the best man possible. But they miscalculate, badly.

        Sure, they have had sex (though less and less often as they age), but it’s gay sex – performative sex, an impermanent power exchange with a temporary partner – or, at least, one they imagine to be temporary – because they are always psychologically saving themselves for something better.

        They are disconnected even when making a physical connection.

        And because of this, Karens, married or not, eventually wind up not being fucked at all, and because they have few, or no, children, become purposeless and pathetic, and, because increasingly unfucked, angry and demanding.

        And thus, unfucked, these pathetic and angry creatures continually prowl, long past they point anyone with the qualities they’re looking for would ever fuck them. Their needs forever unmet. Holes that can never be filled. They can not create, because they never reached a real cooperate cooperate equilibrium. So they must destroy.

              Women haven’t been empowered, they’ve been disempowered.

              A powerful man is a patriarch, a powerful woman is a matriarch.

              A woman with six children from four different fathers toiling away with an iron hoe in the Congo is not a matriarch.

              A woman toiling away in a cubicle with a two digit notch count, five figure salary, and six figure student loan debt and zero children is not a matriarch.

              Today’s women serve an inhuman narrative, a narrative that drains them of fertility, of beauty, of purpose, of meaning, and, ultimately, of power.

              Eat, pray, love isn’t a promise of liberation, it’s an enticement to servitude, servitude earned one mimosa, one designer handbag, one pump and dump sexual transaction at a time.

                  Djin has of late made, in my opinion, solid contributions to the WQ canon. His position that what is happening in current era is not an actual matriarchy because of the dire state it puts women in. I disagree on technical grounds, but I also see his point. One branch of my family has a traditional matriarch in the classical American style: military wife, 10 kids, score+ grandkids, dozen great-grandkids, keeps in contact with everyone, universally loved and respected, wealth of advice and information, stalwart church goer. She never gainsays her husband, always encourages the females to female and males to be men. But she’s a rarity.

                  So maybe we can refine the terms such that matriarchs are never the product of Matriarchy.

                • Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

                  >So maybe we can refine the terms such that matriarchs are never the product of Matriarchy.

                  Which is true, but also somewhat impoverished language.

                  If we take the grain-eating neolithic longhouse cultures as archetypical examples of Matriarchies, then, while exact numbers are basically impossible to ascertain, the chains of events are consonant with low fertility rates.

                  These are men who, for thousands of years prior to their conquest by aryans, never expanded beyond the plots of land they were chained too, nor did they leave any significant impact in terms of writing, art, or architecture.

                  (Coincidentally, the matrilineality of modern skype demographics implies descent from such indigent snake-goddess worshiping clades, rather than the semi-nomadic animal herders of the old testament.)

                  So yes, one never finds a successful Mater Familias without a superior Pater Familias.

                  Exactly. Matriarch par excellence did not raise a single daughter to be the same, and the sons are all Boomercons or big standard progressives. I touched on this before: my based GParents were not based parents. Jim pointed out that the left that which goes without saying unsaid, though he stated that they got the joke but never taught the kids it was a joke. I think their failure, such as it is, is what made them what they are now. I refuse to discuss it with them, but I really wish I could. Matriarchy, of any type, is a failure mode.

                  Matriarchy is an anticoncept. There is no such thing and has never been. at different places and at different times, there have been societies of wives or of whores. But never a society where either could kill a man with her bare hands, so never a matriarchy.

                  Typo, Jim. “That left” should be “they left.”

                  @Aryaman
                  I take your point, but indulge my academic faggotry and shade in some most likely pointless nuance here: if whores stay in power for a millennium, or even a brace of centuries, Matriarchy existed. Nearly every man of Old Europe (per the lens of the linked video that spawned this aside) could have strangled whichever Tribe Quee(f)n that ruled his longhouse, but they didn’t. It wasn’t until the Aryans thundered out of the steppe that the men of Matriarchy tried to fight. So we are discussing could v. should.

                  All that bullshit aside, you are absolutely correct: “Matriarchy” as a viable method of governance is an anti-concept. But it did exist. That’s why the industrial revolution occured in AD 1800 instead of BC 100.

                • Djinn says:

                  Thank you Kunning Drueger, humbled by your comment.

                  I think a distinction needs to be made between women who are not in a cooperate cooperate equilibrium with a man, and women are in a cooperate cooperate equilibrium with a man.

                  The Squaw – For lack of a better word, I think ‘squaw’ describes the longhouse dwelling, yeast smelling, shame and blame approach of women who are not in a cooperate cooperate equilibrium with a capable man. A shrew when married, a public scold when not. No dignity.

                  Matriarch – Maybe a better, more precise term is needed, but when I think ‘matriarch,’ I think of a woman who is in a cooperate cooperate equilibrium with a capable man. Has multiple kids, manages the things a woman should manage – household, children – capably and responsibly. Is not a shrew or a scold, respects her man as a man and is respected as a woman. In short, has dignity.

                  The woke – having consumed women – don’t need them anymore. They have Dylan Mulvaney to shill for them and be their bitch. We can offer women real purpose and real possibilities.

                  Open to correction, redirection on any of this.

                  This discussion might benefit from some “clarifying” of terms, while avoiding changing language too much.

                  matriarchy = System where women are the ruler/leader by default, OR the only allowed leaders.

                  matriarch (no capital) = Woman “leader”, what you expect from most women in power.

                  Matriarch (with a capital) = Woman who is actually being a competent leader, commonly with male assistance somewhere.

                  Concerning the discussion of matriarchy below —

                  ‘(Coincidentally, the matrilineality of modern skype demographics implies descent from such indigent snake-goddess worshiping clades, rather than the semi-nomadic animal herders of the old testament.)’

                  Ain’t that the truth lol. In the Paleolithic and early Neolithic, language groups were ruled collectively by women under the Great Mother Goddess . . . who IS the serpent, make no mistake. Nearly all religious iconography from those periods deify the female, typically as Mother Goddess.

                  The idea that just because a male in, say, the Late Paleolithic could beat up a female is hardly proof against gynarchy in prehistory. After all, if a male in America beats up a female — or sometimes if he merely offends her — he is placed in a cage by, essentially, the hired agents of the sisterhood. Yet folks cling to the notion that some ‘patriarchy’ exists.

                  As for the U.S., one can deny by definition it’s a matriarchy, but however you slice it, women rule in America and have for many decades. Call it gynarchy, gynocracy, the Sisterhood, doesn’t matter. What matter is who has power, and men and fathers do not.

                  From centuries before its founding, America was planned as a Shrine or Homeland to the Great Goddess, who didn’t ‘go anywhere’ during patriarchal incursions, except underground. Which is what snakes do.

                  The District of Columbia is NAMED after the ‘great goddess’ that is the deity of the Western cryptocracy, and D.C. teems with goddess shrines, plaques, temples and so forth.

                  The gynocracy we see in America and the Anglo nations is no aberration, but very much the plan by various elements all along.

            Lucretius wrote twenty centuries ago that Romans didn’t want to become atheists because they feared eternal damnation. Paganism DID believe in the supernatural and went further than ancestor worship.

            Demon worship: callous disregard for Gnon in the pursuit of muh pleasure(Slaanesh) and muh change(Tzeentch).

              A Western man can no more be a pagan these days than he can crawl back into his mother’s womb.

              Cherish the old myths. C.S. Lewis contends his Northernness, his childhood love of Norse mythology, contained more numinosity than what he was presented in church during those years. And I believe him wholeheartedly as not only did I too have Northernness as a lad, but Mt. Olympus before that.

              Conversion not only came with sword and fire, but with clarification. And early Christians preserved the best of those myths, and the worst too as a warning, because they understood poetry in ways that are almost lost to modern man.

              Christianity is paganism grown up.

                  At least for a time the Norse themselves liked Thor better. More popular, maybe more powerful, notwithstanding Odin was head of the pantheon. Self-proclaimed Odinists are still projecting their modern monotheism backwards in time.

                  >too much good and evil into one deity

                  Nietzsche’s Dionysus bears a more than passing resemblance to Odin in his medieval rather than Marvel comics portfolio. I.e. drunkenness, wisdom, inspiration, madness. I take this as a strike against whichever god it was; by their fruits you know them.

    If a real war breaks out, the only hope of decisive victory would be a nuclear first strike that annihilates the Enemy. I don’t think the tech is there, and even if it in some way is, I don’t believe it would “work” in the sense that nukes don’t erase countries, they just ruin cities, and coordinating and deploying a distributed successful first strike is a massive feat of planning, preparation, and execution, three things USG really struggles with already. So, because of other sociocultural elements and for the sake of discussion, let’s take First Strike off the table. The simple logistical challenge of gathering, transporting, deploying, and provisioning a military at war is beyond every single nation on the planet with the exception of Best Korea IMO. Russia is struggling with Ukraine, which is next door and completely understood, no language barrier, no culture barrier, good maps, and lots of experience.

    If the US went to war with Russia, it would take most of a year just to get assets together and moved into Europe, leaving plenty of time for all sorts of things to happen domestically and internationally. If the US went to war with China, at least a year but probably more than two in all honesty. The most obvious bottleneck is shipyards. Per Macgregor, Zeihan, and other sources, there are ~3 shipyards that can lay down keels. That would have to be expanded massively, requiring raw materials and laborers that literally don’t currently exist in CONUS. Additionally, hybrid war means there would be derailments, industrial accidents, mass shootings, grid failures, and work stoppages near constantly. Add to that potential conventional missile strikes, and you get to a situation wherein USG and USM have to functionally “reconquer” *America* before they can even begin a significant build up. I don’t think any man here would willingly, voluntarily join up with USG to defend and expand the GAE, but I wonder how many men everywhere would actively oppose it at home? The French in Indochina had to fight the communists in Vietnam as well as France during that war, and I think it’d be the same here, and not just dissenting RWers, but ethnic Chinese, angsty niggers, conniving mestizos, and others besides.

    We’ve discussed how FDR’s regime has to halt the cultural drift in ~1933 just to get America to a place where it could pivot to a war economy in 1941. Between 39 & 41, there was a concerted, coordinated effort to get all the various bureaucratic, legal, and industrial elements under control, and even with all that, the Arsenal of Gayocracy wasn’t really chugging until 1943. 1942 was a shakedown period that saw many losses, mistakes, and reductions in bureaucratic and leadership overhead even as military, industry, labor, and infrastructure were expanding. It was ~10 years of ramping effort and ~2 years of intensely concerted effort to get to a place where Liberty ships were coming into service once every ~80 hours, planes at ~10 a day, and 14,000,000 men under arms.

    All of that with white men of grit, sense, and skill in unquestioned control of a largely agrarian identified, overwhelmingly white, paternalistic & patriotic nation of diligent and capable men and women who were PROUD of a country & culture they LOVED. Looking around at this festering shit hole, this two bit Carthage wearing the leotard of Sodom and heels of Gomorrah with Babylonian dreams and Roman delusions, I get the sense that USG/USM wouldn’t be ready for war in 10 years, or even 20, without a full blown civil war and a solid generation of reconstruction.

    So long as the sickening equilibrium continues, the Polygon can keep stumbling towards Abbadon. So long as we just send money and contractors and already extant tech to faraway places, the Cathedral can pretend it’s the queen of the world. Like those pasty, fat, barren, brainless biddies sitting in nursing homes, waving fag flags and watching the TV, this country can continue to exist with enough money and life support. But imagine what would happen if you dumped that fat cunt out of her rascal scooter and forced her to run up a flight of stairs with a full pack on before making her wrestle with a teenage negro holding a knife?

    Time will tell, and KD predictions are the hold standard of incorrectitude, but I don’t think there is a centrally located, coherent control group pulling strings. I think it’s loosely aligned factions, so a significant enough international embarrassment would fracture the coalition and much would b up for grabs in the US. It would take a long time for anyone to make uniforms and initiate campaigns of genocide. If the USM gets internationally humiliated, many other institutions would be severely damaged as a result, and I know exactly what I would do if the FBI and other domestic suppression agencies were otherwise engaged fighting turf wars in DC.

      Russia intervening in Ukraine did fracture the coalition, in that the medical dictatorship faction wanted to shut down the evil white male capitalist oppressive industrial system that is giving the earth a fever, and the guys who intended to logistically exhaust Russia suddenly decided that was a bad idea.

      If they want troops, rather than shells, the trannies and the career women are a problem. But it does not seem to occur to them that they are going to need troops. They are still thinking of winning with logistic exhaustion and airsea power.

      Good post KD.

      It crystallized a thought for me. Given all you say, what play will GAE/DC make when their current failures become apparent, and chaos accumulates? They won’t shrug and go home. I predict a variation on Rome’s strategy of recruiting legions from one province to conquer or police another, and be paid with land and women after retirement.

      Only the GAE version won’t draw on physical provinces, they’ll draw on identity or allegiance. More than upping overall recruitment of trans, chicks and blacks and mixing them together, the limitations of which are already apparent. I now predict discrete units of “dreamers” (MS13, la Raza), BLM units not just inner city but gang members and ex cons, maybe one parade unit of trans somewhere (keep it small enough and they’ll get some real killers out of it), and on. And they’ll be paid not in land and wives but rape and torture.

      And, pursuant to threads below, of course they’ll be used to hunt down “hoarders” (anyone with a garden, or oatmeal in the cupboard) during food shortages, and to kick down doors of farms and suburbs. Why wouldn’t they? It’s the logical move given their priors, and morality won’t restrain them.

      • Kunning Drueger says:

        I think they will “shrug and go home” from an international debacle, using some combination of methods like what you outlined, but also what Wulfgar postulated, as in an American Azov. If their grand designs on world domination collapse, they will need scapegoats, and evil Christian whites with their assault rifles, Bibles, and healthy children make for a tempting target. But there’s a real problem with this concept: spics are good at terrorizing unarmed peasants, niggers excel at bullying placid and mentally castrated whites, and trannies & women are very skilled at hounding opposition and dissenting voices online. In each situation, the game is rigged, so Team Biolenin wins handily. On a more level playing field, I don’t think it’s so simple. Azov was not built overnight from thin air. The CIA has a lot of “native talent” to work with in a land with a long history of evil and reprisal. In the US, it requires constant, wall to wall media & education reinforcement & indoctrination to keep blacks both uppity and on a pedestal. Same with faggots and women. If our lying eyes are left to their own devices, the charade drops pretty quickly.

        Jim, or someone, called this the Troops Problem, and I think that’s a great characterization. Their bioleninist machinations over the last decade have done much damage to any potential army of competent white men working to erase themselves and kill their own tribe. It’s not impossible, just harder than it was a mere few years ago. I don’t see how they can immanentize the eschaton *and* build an American Azov, those seem mutually exclusive to me. Maybe Eschaton in California and Azov in Arkansas? But then how to keep that shell game going? Now we’re back to the initial post above: everything they want to do is outside of their capacity to successfully accomplish or even adequately plan and provision.

        If I were in the position to oppose the GAE, I’d keep pitching hard and straight down the middle, getting them to swing for the bleachers on every single pitch. St. John said it best: anything that gets them to drop the mask is a net gain for us. But this means that we’re going to see some heinous things; innocent people will be unfairly punished, children will be sacrificed, elderly will be humiliated, and history & culture will be erased. We will probably get to a point where people pine for the civil and peaceful time of 2021 & ’22 lol.

            Anarch-Tyranny isn’t coordinated, as in the rape/murder/assault isn’t planned out, it’s just diversity + proximity combined with punishing the good guys ex post facto. This gets rinsed & repeated, and the general “climate & ecosystem” changes accordingly. We saw these tactics in the 2020 summer of love: feral negros, white agent provocateurs, simple weapons dumped, and coordinated “do-nothing” approaches for LEOs. That’s not going to work as well in rural areas.

            Yet another complication is getting their message out. If one community gets wiped, should the publicize it? On the one hand, it could scare Thrall Whites into compliance. But on the other, it could calcify resistance and yield the moral high ground.

              Pol Pot killed every member of his family and every person who knew him in his youth, perhaps to erase parts of his past that were inconvenient for the legend he intended to create. The fatality rate among friends of Clinton is strangely high. With elections dead, conflict within the left is likely to turn increasingly lethal, so that type will rise to the top. Pol Pot had no troops problem, Trotsky had no troops problem, and Zelensky has no troops problem. We are likely to see more Zelenskys.

                The quote Fidelis supplied comes from wikipedia and concerns chinese 17th century warlord Zhang Xianzhong, not Pol Pot.

                  Iten’s statement is unclear in isolation, but what he is talking about is obvious in context – or at least obvious to those familiar with past left wing singularities. If the statement remains unclear, request a little history lesson to explain the references people were making to historical events, though you should be able to form a pretty good guess as to what those events were from the surrounding discussion.

                  The question being debated is does our modern university system turn out people capable being another Zhang Xianzhong.

                  Since Pol Pot was turned out by our modern university system, the question then arose as to whether he was made from the same mold as Zhang Xianzhong, and I argued that the curious absence of any kin or anyone who knew him as youth indicated that he was.

                  I think you can reasonably argue that this unclear because Zhang Xianzhong was not explicitly named, but it was entirely clear from context that everyone was comparing Pol Pot to somebody else, the Cambodian autogenocide to some other autogenocide.

None of them are ever mentioned in the same breath as the Ivy’s, except with some begrudgment you might hear Georgetown. Practicing Catholics tend to look down on the Jesuit universities, if they are angling to set up their children as part of the American Catholic elite they send them to Notre Dame which is CSC (Congregation of the Holy Cross).

                I think what happened to the Jesuits is that they tried practicing good old fashioned entryism on the Communists and Progressives in the 19th century and what do you know it backfired, the leftist rats took over the Society of Jesus instead. And it fits the sudden inability for the Jesuits to practice entryism in the service of Catholicism unless it aligned with Communist and Progressive interests. It also fits the collapse of virtue in the Jesuit order around that time. Jesuits used to be terrifyingly good debaters because they had done the homework to know their opponents arguments and then some. Commies and progs can’t hear thoughtcrime, can’t develop virtue because of an allergy to truth, can’t do the homework to know their opponents.

                  Obviously Puritan descended postChristianity has more power than the Jesuits. It is obvious. But the vatican has been trying to remedy that situation ever since the sack of Rome, not entirely without success.

                  Jesuits do not rule the world. Harvard rules the world. But they have been trying for five centuries. So have Jews, but after the 1950s the Jews adopted the stereoptypical Jewish strategy of making themselves useful to those that do rule the world.

      It could be a more or less random event driven by the bureaucracy just generally hating him, and letting this slip.

      They’re charging him on what amounts to a technicality, an impropriety in keeping business records, in a situation where he was kind of forced to hide something anyways.

And what they have on them is thinner than air, there’s video evidence that they did absolutely nothing and were in fact led in by cops all clear in camera and they’re still going to prosecute a thousand more.

              It’s not really thinner than air though. They spent a considerable amount of effort vilifying their actions and specifically calling January 6 an “insurrection”, etc.
              They did this to Trump but for other stuff. This case is pretty boring.

              Yeah they *might* kill him in jail but it would be entirely extrajudicial, not something they justify with show trials.

                You’re splitting hairs for some reason

                That is as I said, literally nothing, nothing in the eyes of “the law”, nothing if trials and courts were actually real. And there’s video evidence that they did nothing and were ushered in by cops. They have less than nothing, they have evidence of their innocence, they’re still going to prosecute a thousand more of them who will spend whatever amount of time they want in some shithole.

                I don’t understand what are you talking about, everything about J6 is extrajudicial, everyone in a cage is extrajudicially there

                You talk about imprisoning Trump and Trump coming out like “the law” exists, there is a trial and he is somehow not-guilty. I don’t know what you are not understanding, if there were real trials, law and justice not a single one of the J6 people would have ever been in a cage, and those who are now would be immediately released with entitlement to compensation. Instead, they are all still rotting in jail and now they’re going to prosecute a thousand more. What is it about this that you don’t understand? Is reality too hard to accept? But that’s literally America right now though, openly, in the mainstream media. Men lose their jobs because some whore in twitter randomly claims that 20 years ago they raped them, I don’t think you understand the absolute giga shithole that America is.

                As bad as we have it in Europe, we are still the vassal states and not the Vatican, so a lot less demonic. In my country normal citizens went to judges over and over and the judges empowered the citizens to tell the government corona demon worshiper to go fuck themselves over and over. From that perspective I can see why you think the law exists, since it does kinda exist in Europe at least in some countries. There is absolutely no law in America, it’s pure anarcho-tyranny. Best you can do is be in the right area, the right zip code, the right State, and pray for an 80yo white male judge and pay for a well connected attorney (they’re not lawyers, they are influence traffickers, the law doesn’t exist). I’ve also read about rural America and your sheriff literally is the law himself and he doesn’t give a fuck about “the law”. America is absolutely crazy right now, like obvious self-defense against a nigger with a rap sheet that looks like a book will land you in death row/life imprisonment if you’re in the wrong place.

                When Anglin says get out of the cities, he says it for a reason and he is a 100% right about it. If this is how it looks from thousands of miles away looking at headlines and reading plain Americans say their piece, the reality is easily even worse.

                i dunno Jim, America is a continent-sized country. who knows what can take place within its contiguous borders. the worse that things get, the more overwhelmed the panopticon becomes with incompetence, with maintenance it can no longer perform on critical infrastructure necessary to its surveillance state, with factional conflict within the regime, with God knows what.

                my point being, i’m not sure Man has seen a clusterfuck of the calibre that America promises to become once we come to the fast fast faster whirl of its civilization circling-the-drain. this hypothetical degree of devastation won’t do our enemies any favors when they are also faced with the most armed general population ever.

                for context, since i think i read a comment somewhere in here wherein was referenced the Khmer Rouge, cambodia has an area of 181,000 km² it is about half the size of Germany or slightly smaller than Oklahoma.

                it seems to me it will be mighty hard for these pussies faggots and retards to genocide us classically. i’m expecting a blended approach ya’know a little Khmer Rouge style this and a little Holodomor style starve-the-countryside that. what do youz guys think about that? thank you.

                  An individual householder can maintain Christian law inside his household, and a small group of armed tough good men can keep a small rural neighborhood safe when the police and courts will not, and I know both of these well from direct experience. But the autogenocide will be a large scale operation, and resistance to it has to be a large scale operation. During the Yugoslavian civil wars, the country people got it worst because a large group of armed men would show up from time to time, kill anyone they did not much like, take anything they wanted, and destroy everything they did not want so that the next group of armed men hot on their heels, who had a different set of targets they did not much like, would not have food to eat or a roof to sleep under.

                  Distributed resistance does not work. You get crushed. It has been tried. It only works if you have friends in the enemy capital who restrain the military from taking the necessary dreadful measures.

                  We have had millennia of experience with this. People have tried distributed resistance over and over again. If it is effective, the hostile occupying army just bunches up into big groups and each big group goes through burning everything and killing everyone.

                  The enemy is already cheerfully willing to burn American small towns. We are unlikely to be able to win except we have the means and the will to burn the big blue megalopoli.

                  A group controlling New York city can kill everyone in Oklahoma, and then move on to kill everyone in the next state.

                  They backed down because their commander would not shoot them, and he would not shoot them because his commander would not shoot him. Zelensky would have no problems. In late stage leftism killers rise to the top, and killers are rising right now. When the Maidan false flag massacre of their own people was ordered, presumably by the State Department, it was carried out. When Trump dealt with Lafayette park, I do not know if he was mindful of the risk of a Maidan style false flag massacre, but some people in his apparatus certainly were, and were concerned with the hazard of being the fall guys in such a massacre. Zelensky is a killer installed in power by killers. Sooner or later a killer is likely to be president of the USA.

    The sergeants and officers are still there to train conscripts (at least as members of the reserve). Of course, supplying those armies would be a problem, but what (if anything) prevents the GAE to draft everybody in a European NATO state as they did in Ukraine?

          In that area of the world, they have a saying, “I against my brothers, me and my brothers against my cousins, me and my cousins against the world”, and since we and they are facing demon worshipers, real Christians are their cousins.

          On the other hand, there is Putin’s famous Christmas video. He thinking about supporting us, since his state religion is Christian.

          I watched Trump’s Waco rally. Held in Waco on the anniversary of the FBI raid on Waco. From the date of the rally I figured he must have learned something and might be planning a different course this time around. He has learned nothing. From the date of the rally, and a couple of the warm up acts, some of his advisers are in touch with the new normal, but he is not. Holy war is coming, and he is blissfully unaware. Old, set in his ways, and the soul of a merchant. He wants to do the same thing over again, which is not possible, and if it was possible, would have the same outcome.

          Without a foreign base and all that, it is going to be an utterly one sided slaughter, a not a war, more like the Holodomor or the Cambodian autogenocide. Albeit by the time the Khmer Rouge were a fair way through the slaughter, large numbers of the Khmer Rouge were in revolt and the government fell at an outside touch.

          The first English language link Yandex brings up for autogenocide is “the great replacement”. Our enemies want to immanentize the eschaton now, not in three generations. Their impatience may well be their undoing, but so far they have had no big problems. And without a foreign sponsor assisting us, they are unlikely to have big problems. Revolting elements of the Khmer Rouge were not a big problem till they had foreign backing.

          Desantis advisers are the recycled Bush brigade. Biden is the Obama president, Desantis wants to be the Bush president, and Trump wants to be Trump all over again. We are leaderless and without a substantial foreign backer. Both conditions will have to change before we can get anywhere, or even survive, except as refugees outside the empire or on its periphery. Which may soon be considerably nearer to America.

              To defeat a state, you need an army. To have an army, you need a statelike organization with statelike coercive power and statelike revenue. The taliban won because it had bases in Pakistan. The revolutionaries won in Russia because of treason within the elite, and outside elite backing from the Kaiser and foreign (((bankers))). George Washington won in London, not in Valley Forge. George Washingon won because General Howe was in his pocket, and because backed by treasonous elements in the London ruling elite who saw power in America as a good start on power in London. The American Revolution was London whigs sponsoring violence by American whigs.

              In the Rwandan genocide, Rwandan Tutsi were helplessly massacred while Tutsi exiles were able to organize an army that effortlessly defeated enormous Hutu hordes that vastly outnumbered them and were backed by white colonial troops. In an American civil war with no army and no base on which to organize an army, whites who are as superior their enemies individually as the Tusi were superior to their enemies individually and as an organized army, will be massacred as helplessly as the unorganized Tutsi in Rwanda, who were forcibly prevented from organizing by white colonial power (“warlords, threat to democracy”) were massacred. (Somehow the Hutu militias were not a threat to democracy, just as antifa and black lives matter is “fiery but mostly peaceful”). The Tutis attempting to organize within in Rwanda were deplatormed, demonetized (“blood diamonds”), and cancelled, and so were massacred with ease.

              Harvard wanted and wants to exterminate the Tutsi for much the same reason as it exterminated the wild red wolf and created a new red wolf in captivity.

            That said, I don’t think European countries lack anything needed for mass conscription. As pointed out in the comments, some men would forcibly resist. More will simply flee, but the police in any European Nato country is in my opinion sufficient to enforce mass conscription like in Ukraine.

            Nato might to be lacking the means to deploy such slave armies in Taiwan or so, but Ukraine is next door. Armies can march through Europe, and the GAE can still supply boots, uniforms and a rifle for every conscript.

            I’m not argueing such slave armies could win against Russia. They would not be deployed to win, but to be killed.

      Two weeks ago my mother in law informed me that some highly ranked clerk of Croatian defense ministry informed us on TV that soon there will be calls to reservists to “get in touch with local defense office” in order to “adjoin for military manoeuvres”. Or something like that. Calls will be issued only to those who actually served the military, and not to those who opted for so called “civil service”.

      Era of compulsory military service in Croatia ended in 2007, and even before that, it was rare for young men to actually enlist into army, choosing for gay and fake “civil service” instead. I was among those rare ones because I thought it was right thing to do. Heck, I still think so.

      However, they have never called the reserve for military manoeuvres, ever, at least since the beginning of 21st century, so absolutely no one among my friends and acquaintances who did serve, now mostly between 40 and 50, has ever seen military again after being dismissed many years ago.

      In the mean time, our military went to ruin, air force barely flies, we gave up S-300, sold Mi-24, we “stored” tanks (read: scrapped; mostly home made version of T-72). We sent copious amount of weaponry first to Syrian “democratic opposition” (probably also my Kalašnjikov), and then to Ukraine. Our once small, but glorious home-made fleet of drones was deemed as “unnecessary” by leftist and cuckservative defense ministers. Those were not combat drones, but scouting, intelligence and artillery fire guiding ones, and we won the war with those, and we could develop them further, but no, it was “unnecessary” because EU and NATO and unicorns.

      Long story short, few days ago some folks did get their “invites” as announced. Not anyone I know of personally, for now, but I do not have any doubts where is all that going.

      Those idiots of our rulers and their vassals are obviously entertain the idea of sending us, forty and fifty somethings, to play a new kind of soccer with our heads against Kinžal, all that for the sake of gay parades in Kijev and Moskva, so that Victoria Nuland, Hunter Biden and such scum can continue to plunder Ukraine for yearly salary of tens of millions of dollars, not to mention charitable sums from Raytheon and co.

    The lavender mafia has infiltrated and taken over the company I work for. I have pondered how they have such cohesion. I know they have their own gay sex mystery religion and I’m aware of the idea of bioleninism but the lavender mafia even keep this cooperation through time. Perhaps they are infected with a parasite being passed through each other’s intestines?

    Anyway while they have conquered the business I work for they are strangely unable to properly run the business. Rather the employee portal is now filled with gay pride, news about the company funding gay pride everywhere in the world, promotions based on being gay, and they make sure to let us know that the company healthcare plan will cover any and all tranification mutilations 100%.

    As far as the business goes they hired a team of straight white males to create the mythical magical database that everyone in the company is now supposed to worship. Of course after the database, that they all call AI, was finished they fired the entire dev team. Updates to the database are restricted to a corporate diversity team. You can all imagine how this is going.

    On the ground level things only keep working due to the quality of the low level employees. They keep moving my straight white male boss around because somehow he knows the magic joo-joo that makes the database work. It’s not that he knows how to organize our production, it’s still the magic “AI” that is making things work. Of course when he’s gone we are managed by a big fat ugly man hating lesbian who is currently going through menopause so she is even more emotional than before. Things begin to quickly fall apart until my straight white male boss returns.

    Outside of work a decade ago I told the wife that things will only get worse, every year they will get worse. On the bright side my family keeps growing, my children are home schooled, and, at least as far as I know, the tranny butt fck gang still hasn’t figured out how to get a baby from the butt. Though I saw they claim to have created a mouse baby from two male mice. I’m sure they have teams of straight white men hard at work on creating eggs from male DNA and artificial wombs.

        That the navy is behind and getting further behind in repairs and maintenance is public. That this has a substantial impact on capability for combat is anecdotal. The air force equivalent however (lack of “full spectrum combat capability”) is public though not much publicized. The state of our tanks? I am, as I said, guessing.

          I can tell you that aircraft maintenance of very tiered and compartmentalized. With several crew chiefs assigned to each aircraft. Specialty shops for engines, hydraulics, avionics, fuels, sheet metal. Then there are contractors which consist mainly of retired old timers. Then you have the companies that made the aircraft. There are phase inspections and yearly isochronical inspections that should reveal problems.

          So, let’s say some low IQ negro manages ape things up. There are levels of backup and most work is blackbox swap and detailed repaired farmed out.

          Maintenance is also monitored using computers by the Chief of Maintenance who is usually a Colonel who want to keep his career in tact. So when he sees a trend happening, reported by computer, heads start to roll.

            That the navy tried, at great expense, and failed, to build more warships, is not a plea for funding, but an admission against interest.

            It would have been in its interest to pretend the warships worked, that the stupendous amounts of money had been successfully spent. How many other weapons systems did the other branches pretend to build and pretend are working?

            This is the standard-issue “process = outcome” popularized by McNamara’s Morons. We can’t be failing, because we have a great Process. Competence, motivation and training don’t matter, only following the process. Don’t look at our outcomes, only our compliance.

            Similar to the IFLS dude insisting that what’s happening right in front of you is theoretically impossible. Screw your theory, dude, I’m going to trust my lyin’ eyes.

            I’ve been around the block a few times by now, and if there’s one thing I’ve learned over the years, it’s that the process, the rules, the oversight, the organizational structure, don’t mean shit. Consummate professionals with any amount of motivation will self-organize and come up with a process that works, but the process is always in service to the personnel, not the other way around. If your staff don’t know what they’re doing, don’t care about performance, or just don’t like each other very much (especially if at least one woman is involved at any level), then the best quality you can hope for is a Big Mac, and often you won’t even get that. The DIE YT crowd is systematically eliminating most of the personnel who actually make things work, and alienating the rest. The vibrants and troons will go through all of the same motions and send in their GPT- and copypasta-assisted TPS reports, yet somehow productivity will continue to decline.

            I’m sure you’re telling us the truth as you perceive it about the whirlwind of activity you observe. The question is, how much of it is valuable and how much of it is waste? Every organization, save for the truly pathetic like Twitter and its cry rooms, looks busy, but underperformance is underperformance. Either you get the outcomes you want, or you don’t. The U.S. just isn’t floating new warships, isn’t flying new fighters, probably isn’t driving new tanks, and definitely isn’t constructing new nuclear reactors. All this points to declining competence, declining capabilities and what might be called a deep malaise in American industry and society in general.

            We’ll probably find out very shortly which of us is right, given that Globohomo has emptied all of its arsenals and stock rooms to prop up the Jewish Comedian in its favorite puppet state and slush fund. If America suddenly and inexplicably realizes that the clusterfuck in the middle east is in fact a clusterfuck and starts recalling all of its troops and equipment, you can bet your ass that she’s running out of materiel and personnel at home.

              I await with interest the strangely delayed performance of the new tanks in the Ukraine.

              Interestingly, one of the reasons the new wonderweapon tanks are strangely delayed is that the Ukrainians are welding old Soviet armor on top of them, which would suggest that they are less than entirely happy with what they have received.

              It is difficult to build a wonderweapon. It is relatively easy to build a wonderweapon that is semi permanently in need of strangely delayed maintenance to reach its “full spectrum mission capability”, and, when it is theoretically at “full spectrum mission capability”, it is strangely difficult for the operator to use those capabilities.

                “McNamara’s Morons” was the nickname unaffectionately given to a military program predicated on the premise that effective platoons could be built from troops well below the standard normally considered fit for service, given the right processes and the right training. Spoiler: it was a humiliating failure.

                So no, I wasn’t labeling anyone here a moron, I was reinforcing (with verifiable, easily-googleable historical fact) my claim that no amount of process and oversight can fix the problems caused by a low average quality of personnel. We tried that already and it flopped, and McNamara and his fellow bureaucrats were way smarter and more qualified to attempt it than any of today’s brass.

                And who are you? Jim or one of the other regulars?

                I’ll take that as a compliment, but I doubt that Jim sockpuppets himself. Aside from his recognizably laconic writing style, there would be no need, since he’s obviously quite comfortable with confronting any of us directly. Sockpuppeting is done to create the illusion of consensus, but Jim isn’t running a democracy here, he’s running an oppressive dictatorship and freely admits it (though perhaps with better euphemisms).

                Yes, obviously the whole of the military is in shambles because you wrote a wall of snarky text to prove it.

                Of course you should not believe it because I wrote it, or because Jim wrote it. You should believe it because the regime media wrote it, repeatedly, and it’s a statement against interest. You should believe nothing that your sworn enemy says unless it is a clear statement against his interest, in which case you should immediately sit up and pay attention.

                Regime media tells us in one breath that Ukraine is on the verge of winning, Russia is running out of men and materiel, American wunderwaffen + Ukrainian pluck is an invincible combination, Ukrainian troops will be occupying Moscow by summer. Then in the next breath tells us that we must dig deep (into our stockpiles) to keep the fight going, that the machines are not quite battle-ready, that we’re sending all we can but logistics and “training” will take time, etc.

                The reason for the mutually contradictory narratives is, of course, different audiences; the jingoism and triumphalism is for the rabble, while the desperate money-grubbing is for their friends in high places. However, the grubbing would not exist if they already had the industrial capacity and operating competence to prop up Ukraine indefinitely. They know, cannot possibly fail to know, that publishing those “we need moar” stories makes them look weak and ridiculous, but they have no choice.

                Does anyone believe America is currently capable of producing even a tenth of that output today? 100,000 tanks and nearly 300,000 aircraft. We can’t even seem to get 100 into the field.

                  An enemies statements are datapoints; not so much of truth per se, but of the enemy’s feelings and intentions; and statements against interest are indicative of very bad feelings indeed.

            ‘Compartmentalization’ is another word for siloization, which is another word for atomization.

            This is not actually a good thing. Rather, a sign of profound dysfunction. Know-how gets lost in transmission, while bureaucratic sinecure sprouts like fungus.

            A man who owns a factory that makes something should be able to stand up from his desk, take a walk, and be on the assembly-line floor that is making that something in less than five minutes. If that isn’t possible then you have problems; with all of the something, the factory, and the owner. If you have people ‘working for the company’ that can’t be ‘on site’ of wherever that company’s ostensible purpose makes contact with reality in five minutes or less, they aren’t ‘people working for the company’, they are bureaucrats parasatizing off of it.

            A man who designs something needs to work on the assembly line making that something, and the men who work on an assembly line making something need to be the same mannerbund designing it. This makes virtuous cycles of improvement possible. If this isn’t happening, then you have problems.

            Men who operate a piece of equipment should start their apprenticeships as part of the pit crews that maintain that equipment, in order to develop their familiarity with it. Creeping arbitrary siloization of knowledges and roles that are naturally entangled is a huge problem in large scale organization, especially when historically ignorant ‘rationalizers’ get oars stuck in the water.

    The Navy suffers the same disability that NASA suffers. How much of the stuff on the Nimitz is still in order suitable for use in battle?

    Back during the Obama years I heard from a friend had a relative on a carrier that they regular patrolled the China sea with only 1/3 of the Phalanxes operational and one time they went out without a working radar because the contractors couldn’t get the new system to work.

    Pretty much every Chinese fighter has automatic missile detection systems built in while only the latest American fighters have it(F35/F22). China’s air to air missiles have about double the ranges our does and it appears that China has working stealth air to air missiles. Our planes outside the limited number of stealth ones are sitting ducks.

      I know the Chinese have been doing interesting work on stealth penetrating radar. Whether they have gotten it to work, I have no idea.

      Stealth is most useful to an airsea power like the US, stealth penetration most useful to a land power like China or Russia.

      China and Russia have planes where the pilot fires the missile through a helmet mounted display.

      This makes an enormous difference in capability to target things. A helmet mounted display is Information Epoch warfare.

      • Upravda says:

        Helmet firing AA missiles were first introduced in MiG-29, back in Eighties, which was quite a feat back then for a Soviet sci-tech which was markedly more primitive in the field of electronics than West and USA. Russian electronics is still inferior compared to the NATO, but it seems that gap is closing – fast.

        Such helmet firing system was also employed by South Africa in Rooivalk helicopters, unfortunately abandoned since then.

          Good data visualisation, user interface in general, can change everything about how a system operates in reality. So often the first limiting factor isn’t technical possibility, but the imagination of the designer in how he re-presents things.

          Just to give an example, the technical capability for the iPhone existed years before the iPhone, but it was Steve Job’s decision to re-present the interface as a fullbody touchscreen that changed everything.

          There are very few people, outside of fringe establishment figures like Dominic Cummings, who explicitly talk about this sort of thing in such terms though.

          • Upravda says:

            Yes, and Microsoft coined the term “smartphone” and supported development for those devices with Visual Studio 2005. There was also application market, .lit format for e-books, etc. Unfortunately for them, those devices still had classical scrollbars and other features of desktop OS, so did not gain attention, except in some niche fields of use such as warehousing.

            Jobs did have much more imagination than Bill.

          • Doom says:

            YES
            It is all about the interface.
            So much pissing about happens with the back end and making it so the SOFTWARE engineers are comfortable, that interface is often trash.

            See: the entire fucking internet

            They make a test interface to test the functionality
            Re-jiggering the test interface to match the design brief/ user expectations will cost x

            We’ll just add some pretty buttons to the test interface it will be cheaper.

            Hence the actual demonstrable genius of Jobs.

            • jim says:

              It is not exactly that anyone decided it was cheaper, but hey, “the software is running, release now, we are behind schedule and over budget”. And then it gets released, and there is a large and growing bug fix and feature request list.

              Nobody thought about the UI, and then the engineers move on, and the bureaucracy moves in, and the bureaucracy is not going to design a UI, and if they do, it will be a disaster.

              There are lots of excellent UI engineers, but they tend to find no UI jobs available. When management does hire someone for UI, it is not a UI engineer who knows what makes stuff easy to use, but a marketing moron who invariably wants to break existing standards and existing user expectations in order to give the product a unique and distinctive look. The existing UI uses the standard file save and file open dialogs, and the marketing expert spends much his time reinventing these standards. He thinks if you confuse and surprise the user he will remember your brand. Hence every odd numbered windows release.

                This is EXACTLY what happened to the recent Cadence 17.4 (pcb layout tool) release. ALL the icons and color schemes have been changed. All the icons still do the say thing, but since they look different you know longer know which is which and you need a mapping chart!!!! WTF!!!

                Potayto / potahtoe?

                It’s true though. No one thinks about the UI, or values the UI engineer.

                It’s kind of like ergonomics , you make the handle of the tool a little too chunky and it’s unusable.

                “But if we make it this way we’ll have to make a different mold!! ”

                I guess this problem is partially due to the massive amount of work information projects take now – by the time you’ve got all the back end sorted too bad so sad on the interface.

                > He thinks if you confuse and surprise the user he will remember your brand.
                I used to have great respect for marketing types until I came to realise less then 4% of them actually understand what their job is.

                But since they’re ALL useless they ALL get away with it.

                • jim says:

                  > you make the handle of the tool a little too chunky and it’s unusable

                  The marketing types think the UI is a brand, and fail to conceptualize it as the handle of a tool. There are plenty of excellent UI engineers, but they are mostly doing something other than UI, because not much demand for their services. The bureaucrats and marketers think they can do UI, and cannot.

                • Doom says:

                  Yes, exactly right.
                  UI is probably a pretty high IQ skill, gotta work out where the user will make the error.

                  Can not be explained adequately to marketing midwits, like most high IQ skills.

                  I’ve had this exact conversation multiple times
                  “If the user enters this character it crashes the interface”
                  Why would the user do that?
