Quotes of the day from an Arabic speaking friend:
–“I wasn’t really terrified of ISIS’s speeches until I read them in English.”—
I could do a podcast on what that means. English is… clear. Because it is a legalistic and scientific language. So the poetic translates very differently.

Assange is a journalist and protective of individuals identities, but assists us in ending the deep state.
Snowden is a whistleblower protecting of our liberties and assists us in ending the deep state.
Manning is a traitor for the sole reason that he did not resign before going public.
Snowden and Assange are Heroes, and Manning needs to be in a prison cell.

As far as I know, Putin is the richest man in the world at present at ~200B. Although it’s rumored that Qadaffi had about the same (I don’t buy it). That’s about the same as Ford. But less than Carnegie and Rockefeller. Gates had, and Bezos still has, a long way to go.

—“The natural order can’t be prostitution, since for the vast majority of human history two parents were needed to effectively raise a baby. So there had to be male-female bonding. And to prevent male/male violence there had to be equal distribution of women. … The natural order in hunter-gatherer times was monogamy. Then it shifted to polygamy, then back to monogamy. Now we have both. (All as laid out in Tucker’s “Marriage and Civilization.”) — Michael Churchill
—“Ecological monogamy is a Paleolithic innovation related to K-selection following the separation from chimpanzees.
Polygamy and prostitution are Neolithic ecological phenomena related to r-selection and increased scale. Notice how institutional polygamy (as well as tribalism) is strongest, historically and today, in the ancient epicenters of Neolithization.
Institutional monogamy (as opposed to ecological = can only bear the cost of one wife) is a metal age innovation related to the K-selection of reciprocity among superpredators stemming from developments in technology and maneuverability. Notice how institutional monogamy is only present in European (Aryan) cultures, and has been since classical times, and possibly since 3-4000 BC.”—Simon Ström

THE END OF SUFFERING
I”m ok with ‘Striving’, and even ‘Struggling’ but this abrahamic drivel of ‘Suffering’ has to be extirpated from western civilization if not from humanity as a whole. Suffering is an interpretation of failure. Struggling recognizes the the cost. Striving recognizes the success. If we have suffering that means there are those who are unable. And if they are unable we have either let the unable breed, or failed the able. Suffering is an admission of failure.

Dr Seuss? He was one of Them. He worked to circumvent our children’s stories. Why? We are all kings, queens, princes, and princesses, regardless of our rank or we are serfs and slaves.
—“I think he’s saying that traditional children’s stories focused on the archetypical prince and princess because under the European tribal system, every family was sovereign. Therefore the average person could relate to the tales and recognize the message within.
Dr Seuss’s stories are nonsense, there is no underlying moral or archetype and therefore the reader does not have a goal or example to follow”—by Steven Jackson
CD: Worse, like critique, they are meant to destroy our civilization and it’s mythos and its ethics.

I watched how they did it in Ukraine’s revolution. They do it like this: Plastic Gas Can , Pry Bar, Car, Siphon, Run, Pour, Light, Return. For throwing rather than pouring, glass two liter fruit juice containers are best – they break easily. Same with beer bottles. The cheap and light ones are best. It’s cheaper to light the rag and throw it but more dangerous. Better to use those little three minute flares and a glue gun. No spray that lands on you. Pile tires. Fill them with dirt (or junk or anything). Put other tires on top and light them on fire using a little gasoline as an accelerator. In other words, an urban environment provides all the supplies the revolutionaries need. Fire like money, goes to work for the revolutionary. In that sense, fire and money produce opposite functions without one’s direct participation.
