  • Why Does The World Allow America To Rule Alaska?

    Because, “Ivan”, for the same reason China lets Russia rule anything east of the urals. And the same reason Muscovy rules the former Golden Horde territories, and the same reason Muscovy rules former Novgorod, and the same reason Muscovy rules Kaliningrad (which we will someday correct), and the same reason Muscovy rules Crimea, and the same reason Muscovy DOESN”T rule eastern europe any longer.

    Becuase decisions are made by the capacity to conduct and preserve the violence necessary to rule.

    The last people on earth to make judgements of others are the Russians.

    You killed millions of your own, and set your self back a century, then set back eastern europe by a century. Spread the disease of markxism around the world at the cost of 100M lives.

    You didn’t protect us from the germans. The germans were trying to protect us from you.

    Why on earth the Anglos didn’t let you conquer and retake Turkey is beyond me.

    Why we didn’t overthrow and modernize you at the end of the world war is merely one of the great follies in history. Had we continued to moscow and Beijing we would have cut the number of murders you caused in half.

    Own it. Your national mythology is an out and out lie. Your national hero was one of the most evil men ever to walk the earth. The germans were right.

    Um. And what have we learned about polls over the past 18 years?
    And what have we learned about reported belief, vs demonstrated action?
    So what has been the consequence of political correctness?Divergence between statement and action. People still act in their interests. Always

    .. but the momentum increases. The bifurcation in the polity is in no small part due to the distribution of pseudoscience and pseudo rationalism.

  • Revolt And Separate

    When you have nothing to sell the unwashed masses, and they have nothing to sell you, the only solution is to revolt and separate. Cooperation requires exchange. When exchange is impossible then cohabitation in a polity is impossible. Because a polity is nothing more than a market for exchange of wants.

    REVOLT AND SEPARATE

  • How Can A Single Individual Change Widely Held Beliefs Or Trends, Like Biases Against Certain Professions (cops) Or Groups Of People (whites)?

    In reality, a single individual cant. But by finding a few dozen similar individuals who want similar things, one can very easily ‘create a message, and stay on message’.

    Moms against drunk driving were profoundly effective.

    You cannot fix the police problem.
    You cannot fix the ‘white’ issue.

    The reason being that they have nothing to do with police or being white, but with the attainment of majority political power, and the ability to seek rents by doing so.

    in other words, you cannot create rational incentives under democracy.

    Democracy is just the slow road to despotic communism.

    We knew that 2300 years ago. We know it now.
