naive take. All maturing civs seek independence from mature cives mired in deterministic corruption: The indulgences via the people, the aristocracy via the church extractions and the monarchy via the pope’s politics. Germania had restored civ, reintroduction of the greeks reason, and italy had not. The printing press and economics inverted the political power and st. peters’ funding became catholicism’s acropolis – a tombstone

That’s bs. I was covered in sweat from the heat, and I neither wet my pants nor hid, nor was I frightened. I was laughing and telling jokes with the BLM guys. The BLM had paid the organizer, the organizer asked me to return his microphone, and the police had surrounded us with vehicles on both sides, and I wasn’t going to ask my people to fire on anyone. It would have been a disaster. Instead I learned that you idiots were exactly the nitwits the left claimed you were, and we decided to drop you permanently and move on with normies. You’re still disaffected outcasts without political influence and we’re still gaining influence – just with a better calibre of people. It’s not complicated. Your behavior explains why you fail.

I disagree a bit – yes the independence of the court is necessary, but yes the monarchy is necessary as a judge of last resort. A simple principle: “the monarchy is above the law in the restoration of the law” allows us to overcome the problems of democratic and organizational…

We each contribute.
Time will tell how much and how durably.
I use social media to run experiments – otherwise I would not bother.
Rudyard produces content for money but also to run experiments.
Many use social media for validation and maybe money.
It’s just a question of what…

That’s a few words to say “I didn’t understand”. 😉

Comprehension of one’s err requires a test of external falsification. That you are manifesting common feminine pretence of knowledge and competency is obvious not only in your failure to grasp this first principle, but the fact you would assert it with confidence.
Given that only…

Given that only 10% of the population possesses an IQ sufficient for a bachelor’s degree by demonstration of capacity for informed reasoning, yet we push nearly half the population through paper mills, while the decline in competitiveness of the population increases at the same time, the lowering of minimum necessary knowledge for political participation, the lowering of criteria in both IQ and college preparatory tests, the well measured economic return on degrees, the fact that some degrees lower economic potential (those dominated by women), and that even the number of revolutionary thinkers has remained constant since about 1960, the evidence is clear that many degrees are effectively equivalent to the issuance of Indulgences by the Church for the forgiveness of sins, instead a means of granting permission to the white collar work force for the simple reason that employers are prohibited from IQ, and Ethics testing as a hiring criteria.
The consequence of course is the trading of education debt for delayed household formation and the consequential failure of producing replacement population sufficient for preservation of redistributive benefits such as retirement and health care.
This is a profound ‘scam’ that is far worse than the church’s use of indulgences.
Cheers
