  • Communist Rules for Revolution

    October 14th, 2018 2:12 PM FWIW: This is an interpretation of Communist Strategy produced at the end of WW2. We do not in fact know the author. But it was first published in the USA. The fact that communists don’t own up to it, doesn’t mean it isn’t the plan. Like “The Protocols” these are western articulations of the operational objectives of Abrahamic, Communist and now Postmodern and Feminist speech. So “Communist Denialism” of a QUOTE, isn’t the same as the operational description of Communist Tactics spoken in Abrahamic (Sophist) Code. —Communist Rules for Revolution–

    1. Corrupt the young, get them away from religion. Get them interested in sex. Make them superficial. Destroy their ruggedness.

    2. Get control of all means of publicity.

    3. Get people’s minds off their government by focusing their attention on athletics, sexy books and other trivialities.

    4. Divide the people into hostile groups by constantly harping on controversial matters of no importance.

    5. Destroy the people’s faith in their natural leaders by holding the latter up to contempt, ridicule and obloquy.

    6. Always preach true democracy, but seize power as fast and as ruthlessly as possible.

    7. By encouraging government extravagance, destroy its credit and produce fear of inflation with rising prices and general discontent.

    8. Foment unnecessary strikes in vital industries, encourage civil disorders, and foster a lenient and soft attitude on the part of government toward such disorders.

    9. By specious argument cause the breakdown of the old moral virtues, honesty, sobriety, continence, faith in the pledged word, ruggedness.

    10. Cause the registration of all firearms on some pretext, with a view to confiscating them and leaving the populace helpless.

    @curtdoolittle We forgot scope. Humans have great agency within certain bounds (space/time/domain). The west was successful because it built a social web of boundaries, that closely aligned one’s freedoms, and responsibilities with one’s ability/agency.

    Is it unreasonable for fans to bitch to authors when authors repeatedly break deadlines?

    There’s two award winning fiction series, one, The Name of The Wind by Pat Rothfuss, and the other, The Lies Of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch.

    These books are fictional masterpieces. They had the first piece, the sequel…

    And now it’s been 4 years and we as fans are still fucking waiting, and still getting zero answers.

    Is this me being petulant? Or do authors have some level of job responsibility to actually fuckin write and finish what they start?

    Do authors approach the finish line and just fuckin choke? Do they get afraid they won’t be able to write a satisfactory conclusion?Oct 14, 2018, 10:05 PMJon JonathanWe hope the left makes it that easy for usOct 15, 2018, 4:34 AMJames Calvin BrittinghamThe second part of the Captain Pike episode was the first Star Trek program that I saw.

    AGENCY
(by Curt Doolittle)

    Agency is the capacity for human beings to identify opportunities and make choices that are consistent, correspondent, existentially possible, and coherent with and within reality, and to act upon them, unimpeded by knowledge limitation (ignorance), intellectual limitation(intelligence), mindfulness limitation (impulse), physical limitations(body), instrumental limitations(technologies), resource limitations, the impediments of others and their organizations into norms, laws, institutions, polities, and armies. Perfect agency would require omniscience, omniscience, and complete insulation from impulse.

    Simon Ström translates Agency to the language of physics:

    AGENCY = POTENTIAL ENERGY
Agency = potential energy (PE)
Force = applied energy (F)
Event = Impulse (Imp), [force vector + temporal dimension]
Consequence = displacement vector (s)
Action = work (W)
Externalities = Waste heat (h)

    W = F * sFeb 17, 2019, 12:10 PM
