Um. I dunno about emotionless, but if that means “not open to femininemanipulation or argumentative sophistry”, then yes. As far as I know to be a left wing man requires you’re effeminate in temperament, suggestible under effeminate manipulation, a practitioner of argumentative sophistry, and you are completely ignorant of demographics, genetics, economics, and the behavior of people in organizations and groups. I mean. That’s pretty much on the mark.

—“What is the central dogma of the postmodern left?”-
THE POSTMODERN CANON (Really, this is the answer).
1. All that matters in governance is power, and as such all that matters is getting power, and therefore groups must do whatever possible to obtain power by any means.
2. Truth, reason, science, reciprocity, value, are therefore just one means of obtaining power and therefore irrelevant in the pursuit of power, and as such neither truth, nor reason, nor value nor results of the sciences, nor the requirement for reciprocity necessarily serve the interests of obtaining power or not – and therefore intellectual honestly and consistency is both unnecessary and an impediment to obtaining power.
3. The communist, scientific socialist, democratic socialist, and cultural marxist movements having failed in the competition for power given the successes of science, private property, markets, and consumer capitalism, the only means of obtaining power by which to impose a managed economy and equality of outcome, is to change the political value system from economic outcome to social status outcome (‘oppression’).
4. Changing from material improvement and relative material equality to social status equality is to pursue the intuitively desirable but the physically impossible. (just as communism and socialism and life after death were impossible)
5. The optimum means of obtaining power is to fragment the polity into identities, and therefore increase the demand for authoritarian solutions that replace existing market models.

The Grand Strategy of The Iran Move
As German defense minister said “Iran is on our doorstep so…” meaning that they are afraid because europe is weak. and so they will cave. Meanwhile Trump is trying to force Europeans to redirect their capital to the military which would neutralize their trade advantage with the USA. These things are quite simple as a business person, incomprehensible as a moralist, and inconceivable as an ideologist/theologist. —- Cliffsnotes Version: by Steven Kolpek – USA interventionism allowed allies to reduce their military spending – allies with reduced military spending were able to use funds to leverage trade over US – US begins to pull out from important areas in middle east – allies forced to spend more in military – ally trade leverage reduced due to forced redirection of funds – MAGA

Trump Is Doing What He Promised. He’s an Entrepreneur. Govt Is Just an Obstacle to His Promises to The People.
Trump isn’t a neocon (expansionist) he’s trying to withdraw into safety, and focus the economy on expansion rather than postwar pacification. That means settling all open disputes (which now include Russia – but the press hasn’t caught onto Russian reduction of military spending and redirection to diversifying the economy), ending Korean conflict and bringing those troops home, and in the middle east, preventing a near monopoly of oil production over there, consequential development of a bourse, and new petro-currency, and the military buildup such an event would permit, and the creation of a wealthy military empire – and instead, he’s doing the obvious that’s been recommended by the generals which is to eliminate any islamic state’s expansionism, preserve egypt, the kingdoms, in the south, israel in the center, and the existing high-violence states in the north. (syria, iraq, iran, pakistan). The assumption at present is that Turkey and Iran will form power centers, and that Turkey will return to the islamic civilization and leave the european civilization and thereby cease being a ‘torn country’. The Palestinians have institutionalized rebellion so everyone is waiting them out. And they’re done for the simple reason that israel will eventually fail demographically about the same time that Palestinians are integrated in the region. So the only remaining problem in this plan is replacing the iranian regime and eliminating it’s nuclear (if not military capacity) and as far as I know, given rates of protest, and the public’s intolerance for more economic suffering due to military expansionism, that’s going to happen. TRUMP IS DOING WHAT HE SAID HE WOULD DO IN HIS CAMPAIGN. The only thing he isn’t is whatever he can’t because it’s blocked by congress.

BTC – Initial Generation Issues
Initial generations of any technology follow a nearly identical pattern of over-enthusiasm and over-investment by hobbyists reaching the same limitations and failing to circumvent them. The subsequent generations of technology put greater investment in the hard work of solving the limitations, and paying the high cost of reorganizing the entire model if necessary. This is why first movers do not generally make the money that later movers do. I’ve said for years now that (a) the idea itself is brilliant, but (a) proof of work requiring waste heat is a pretty bad design, (b) btc are shares in a vulnerable network and as such a token money substitute persistently retaining that vulnerability, (c) I predicted that centralized, monolithic versions of the idea using mainstream technology and maintained by the treasury and banking organizations will succeed where distributed systems will not, for the simple reason that the user interface for, security of, response time for, archival ability for, and insurability by an insurer of last resort capable of restitution of losses, will have all the utility advantages without any of the weaknesses. (d) hence the distributed nature is not as valuable as the fractional share and record of title, and all we are doing is free research and development for the state, and the private banking network, check cashing networks, etc. I am extremely thrilled by the ICO model and self issuance of fractional shares because it totally screws big finance. I’m extremely thrilled by the ability to create a portfolio of digital monies that can only be used for certain exchanges. However, I have zero faith whatsoever in the durabiity of any form of encryption, or any distributed software, until there is a firmware revolution – which is a long way off.

—“Aren’t Central banks failing?”–
—“Aren’t Central banks failing?”—Jacob Liam Youngman No evidence of it. Just the opposite, that central banking has made it possible to drag backward nations out of poverty by the billions. You can say that keynesian monetary policy in an attempt to limit unemployment has been a failure if for no other reason than it inflates away all the increases in productivity. You can say that keynesian economic theory and monetary policy does in fact iteratively deepen and extend corrections, such that at some point without extraordinary measures risk impossibility of correct comfortably. You can say that keynesian monetary policy and fiscal policy suppresses reproduction and creates demand for immigration that creates civil wars. But these are problems of keynesian (saltwater) monetary policy not chicago monetary policy, and not central banking. It is almost impossible to argue against the utility of central banking ( using shares in the economy as currency). You just can’t (with any degree of intellectual honesty).
