    GREAT QUORA PIECE:
    “Why doesn’t Russia use its large air force?”
    (RU has moved a large contingent of planes west to surround ukraine.)
    (FWIW: I’ll add that a)the USA uses air power not ground forces, so depleting russian air is riskier for russia than https://qr.ae/prlIFd…

    Listen. When the FBI regularly shows up at your door because they have read your writing, know you were involved in a revolution, know you worked with Intel, participated in DOD-sponsored wargames, and want to be sure you’re only ‘writing’, and then keeps in contact, I’ll weigh…

    Humorous. We have pretty good data on this question.
    The bureaucrats MIGHT (very iffy) choose to side with the government. About 1/3 to 1/2 would join the revolt or ‘resist in place’. Only about 10% of the force would take action against the people.

    And having already done a revolution myself “The minute the government shoots at you you win.” The government and the military lose all legitimacy, and all order breaks down. Because even the people who stay home ‘flip a switch’. The only mistake we made in Maydan is we didn’t hang enough politicians to send the message that this never will happen again. It’s about certain Americans will not make that same decision if it comes to it.
    I work to prevent that happening by proposing a settlement between the urban irresponsibly hyperconsuming and the non-urban responsible hypercapitalizing factions. It’s possible. And it’s necessary. Because we are economically free of agrarianism, and we can an do want to create commons (localities) we prefer. We just want opposite localities ;). As such the centralization of culture in response to the civil war over control of the western expansion has to be reversed, restoring states and city states that can produce cultures they want within the. republican model of government under rule of law that allows for reconciliation of differences between localities.

    A WAR
    There is a woke component in the military.
    There are at least three militaries: Those who fight, those who supply and maintain, and those who clerk and administer. Only the first group matters at all. The maximum number of those men is tiny.
    The non-woke numbers outside of the military vastly out number the under 200K the military can field. There are at least eight million men on ‘the right’ who have some form of military experience.
    Our military has lost every single war against guerillas.
    Our infrastructure is the most fragile in the world.
    Our transportation system is the most stressed in the world.
    Our asymmetry is largely between few dense cities and vast red seas of ‘checkpoints’.
    There won’t be any ‘groupings’ of conservatives to ‘shoot at’ other than the ‘nice Christian folk’ we send to protest.
    Every single geostrategist and every single military strategists has said the same thing: “If the right chooses to act it’s over in days.”

  • My worldview is that despite the problems of differences in demographic distribu

    My worldview is that despite the problems of differences in demographic distributions it is possible to decrease divergence from the laws of nature (physical, behavioral, evolutionary and the logical to describe them) and in doing so prevent elites from lying to the public in public about matters public, thus over decades and centuries driving us all to smithian cooperation and driving out imperialism that deprives people of self determination by self determined means. In other words, I do the science of cooperation and all ‘myths, legends, false promises, frauds, and lies’ must be purged from mankind in order to make us all at least relatively equally prosperous and fulfilled.

    This means slaying sacred cows as well as cherished falsehoods.

    So my work is reducible to the extension of fraud in commerce to politics.

    The ‘science’ required to do that was just more than any previous generation of thinkers could accomplish. For the simple reason that the knowledge didn’t exist.

    That’s really my goal.
