    —“Our generation will sacrifice ourselves for our posterity, rather than sacrifice our posterity for ourselves.”—Karl Grohe Hang the boomers.  Noose Pike and Pyre.  We will make the french, bolsheviks, and the brown shirts look like school girls.

    THE POOR WANT TO SURVIVE. THE PRIVILEGE TALK POLITICS.

    –“Are the People of the Donbas Communist Sympathisers?”—

    Again, a privileged bit of silliness.

    The people in the donbas are fucking dirt poor and it sucks like hell, and the technological revolution that is floating ukraine in the other cities is not there. Right now it is a depopulated wasteland. Think detroit after a civil war.

    Think of the donbas as say, coal mining regions of wales, or the hills of kentucky, or any of the cities in america that live off state financed military (naval) production, all rolled into one. in 1992 their freaking world fell apart and without the organized redistribution of commerical activity to their region by state military investment, they have NO HOPE.

    They want pensions, redistribution, and they remember the REAL GOOD that was done for them by the soviet union. THe soviets were TERRIBLE for eastern europe but they were not terrible for many rural russian peasants.

    PEOPLE REACH FOR WHAT THEY UNDERSTAND.

    what they just want is food, clothing, shelter, security, family and to have a few hopes that are within reach of achievement.

    A middle or working class privileged person is a communist sympathizer. He has a luxury. A poor person is just DESPERATE.

  • UKRAINIAN NAZIS? OMFG. ACTUALLY COMPARE THE BRITS TO THE NAZIS AND WHO WAS WORSE

    UKRAINIAN NAZIS? OMFG. ACTUALLY COMPARE THE BRITS TO THE NAZIS AND WHO WAS WORSE FOR OUR CIVILIZATION?

    —“I heard there were Nazi Sympathizers in the Ukrainian military. Is that true?”—

    omg. Listen. what kind of privilege do you have to live under to virtue signal on that scale? You’d have to be be entirely incognizant of the desperation of a people who live under pervasive corruption, russian paid-for corruption, an oligarchy (libertarians desire a return to) that is basically nothing more than organized crime syndicate, that pays for the government to keep the people in poverty.

    So here is how I (and others in ukraine) would translate your question: “What kind of ignorant, privileged, overweight, unfit, tv-watching, spoiled, effeminate idiot cares about the symbolism young men adopt in order to give themselves courage when fighting vast pervasive corruption foreign, domestic, public, and private in order to save their families and friends from

    Next time you hear that from someone punch him, or slap her, in the face, and tell them to visit a ukrainian village or apartment block where fellow white people who are devoutly christian and far more moral than any brit has the pretense to be, live on $80 a month, because russians want to expand eastward toward europe again, and the people who were entrenched by the russians in the political system, and then entrenched further by the oligarchs (gangsters) want to protect their profits.

    You tell me who is the more moral man? The one who seeks out costumes of fear and power over vastly superior numbers in order to gain courage so that he can take his ife into his own hands on behalf of his people, or the pathetic virtue signal spiral of western privileged do-nothings who destroy their civilization through such posturing?

    Who do you lionize? What political power does it seek? What self confidence does it give you? Howe do you lie to yourself that your life has meaning other than conspicuous consumption? ANd worse, conspicuous consumption of virtue signals – little lies we tell ourselves to say we are anything other than excess burden on the carrying capacity of the planet.

    These people are fighting for their families, friends, future, and nascent nation.

    I’ll tell you who. It’s obvious. And that’s the end of the story.

    Virtue signaling makes me sick. And angry.

    And for that matter, what the hell is wrong with Nazi anything any more, what century are you (they) living in? They dress nice. They cared for their people. And they were loved by their citizenry. And if it weren’t for the brits and Americans we would never have had the first world war, the nazis or the cold war, or the iron curtain, or the rise of islam.

    So if you wanna know who the shitty tyrants in this world are it wasn’t the nazies trying to save their people, it was the brits and americans who destroyed european civilization out of imperial greed.

    Kiev has “faced well-documented economic, political, security and infrastructural challenges,” the EIU says. That has helped push prices in the Ukranian capital downwards.”—

    If you can make income outside of ukraine and LIVE in Ukraine, you can benefit from one of the finest cultures in the world, with the finest people, and live like a prince on very little income. But you MUST make your income outside of the country.

    I know that in the global intellectual pool of people who deeply understand economics, there are those of us who understand the Chinese strategy to destroy the USA, and how successful it will be. I know that there is nothing our government can do to stop it. I know that Russia is counting on it. I know that we are dead. What I don’t understand is just letting it happen rather than managing our decline. Democracy is the evil that prevents it. Russia and china can adapt. We no longer can adapt.

  • WHERE WILL THE OVERTON WINDOW SWING NEXT? —“But where will the Overton Window

    WHERE WILL THE OVERTON WINDOW SWING NEXT?

    —“But where will the Overton Window swing to next?!!!?”—Juhani Järvinen

    Romans: Cycles. Every four living generations, with the fifth forgetting everything learned by the first. Or the more recently, ‘events modify behavior only so long as people are a live that experienced them’ (and in proportion to the number who were alive then.) In other words, memories dilute with time.

    Via Strauss and Howe: the millennials will crash, be blamed like the Victorians blamed the Edwardians, and the next Generation will be conservative.

    Each generation reacts to the status quo. The boomers followed the Greatest (war) generation – and dismantled the martial state.

    The Jones and X generation – taking advantage of the consumption made possible by Nixon/Regan’s Petro-Dollar. (me).

    The Millennial/”Infantile”/”Pet” generation followed Jones-X Generations made possible by end of world communism, and the fed’s excessive liquidity to keep the economy afloat given the new competitors.

    The economy of the west will lose its position and collapse the children of the Pet Generation will despise their parents, just as the boomers despised the war generation.

    Our primary function is to protect assets so that recovery is possible.

    My mission is to punish the criminals of the (((20th century))) and their french and anglo conspirators so that it is the equivalent of the french revolution or the battle of marathon: so that it never happens again.

    We need to do a lot of killing.

  • On Revolution: Changing the Status Quo


    1. What Has The West Been Dishonest About? We Aren’t Free of Sin Either.

    Lets face it: no civilization really understands its group evolutionary strategy. But we can understand ours: When the first Aryans combined horse, bronze and wheel, they were able to cover long distances with speed. They took big risks, and horse, chariot (cart), and armor were very expensive –  but they were able to prey upon neighboring people, as well as defend their own. So they used this military technology to expanded from western China to Spain. It turns out that if you’re militarily capable of it, and develop a professional warrior caste, that capturing better territory and enslaving primitive locals for labor, was a profitable industry.  But only some subset of the population is fit for being ruled cost effectively and at low risk.  So where consanguineous tribes had tolerated wide variations in personalities, the rulers did not, found the most aggressive the most troublesome, and by constant prosecution of outliers, the rulers achieved with man, what they had achieved with dog, sheep, pig, cow, and horse: gradual domestication of the animal man. Slavery is expensive – you are responsible for all costs, serfdom less – taking only the proceeds and some of their labor, employee less – taking most of the proceeds and paying them, and credit slave even less – using dilutive fiat credit to grant them consumption and capturing most of the real proceeds of their production. So over the centuries our ancestors have used the combination of hanging half to one percent of the population per year, delaying reproduction and limiting reproduction with manorialism, the harsh winters to starve the feeble and lazy, frequent wars under the promise of booty, and the conspiracy of the church to enfeeble the underclasses so that by the late middle ages Europe consisted largely of the progeny of the middle genetic classes. Christianity provided little more than an excuse to justify Aryanism: the industry by which the martial class domesticated man for profit.  This was followed by the White Man’s Burden – a restatement of Aryanism in Moral terms. Which was followed by the American Project – a restatement of Aryanism in heroic terms.  Which was followed by Postwar Democratic Secular Humanism – a restatement of christianity in secular terms. And which we have seen most recently as Neo-Conservatism: a restatement of Judaism in Aryan terms. Now let us flip that around and say that because we have domesticated man, maintained tripartism, practiced unconflated rule for each class, and created markets in everything, the natural common law, and an ever more correspondent definition of truth, we have dragged humanity out of ignorance, superstition, poverty, labor, disease, and the constant fear of the vicissitudes of nature. We have made this world more so than any other civilization. Not because we were first, but because we were FASTEST to learn and adapt, despite being a small population on the edge of the bronze age. The problem facing mankind, we didn’t finish the job: We wrongly constrained Germany’s attempt to complete the formation of the north sea’s hanseatic civilization, and created a civil war that nearly destroyed us; and allowed the second ideological invasion of the West in the form of pseudoscience, and are now bringing aboard millions of those people who we have struggled for 1400 years to prevent from spreading the cancer of their ideology – a more venomous version of the first professionalization of lying. So, will we go quietly into the night, or will we continue to domesticate mankind, or will we return to the domestication of man, profiting from the domestication of man, and continuing the transcendence of many, through the most expensive commons that any civilization has ever developed: truth.

    2. Why Doesn’t Democracy work?

    [D]emocracy does work if it’s under one-family-one-vote, in a small homogeneous polity, under agrarianism, and if we have four houses of government in the Anglo Saxon model: monarchy, aristocracy, business and industry, and the church (proletarian, insurance and caretaking). Because the classes and families have enough in common to use majority rule as a means of selecting priorities for funding with scarce resources. But democracy wherein men, women, and classes possess equal votes just results in proletarian parasitic rule with every possible malincentive. We can use majority rule to select priorities among people with common interests but we cannot use majority rule to select preferences among people with disparate interests. That’s just illogical. The data says that without women voting we would have been fine. Women expressed their reproductive strategy in politics under democracy. They undid civilization. That is a painful pill to swallow. Paternalism and property rights, the jury, and truth telling and the absolute nuclear family, and delayed reproduction under manorialism were means by which we suppressed the reproduction of the lower classes, and controlled women’s destructive behavior – reproducing at will at random and causing the tribe to bear the consequences of her Malthusian impulses. Women select by r-strategy (volume), not K-strategy (excellence). Civilization requires suppression of free riding of the masculine kind (aggression) as well as the female kind (reproduction). We undid Indo-European history and the family as the central political unit, with one act. So, how do we construct compromises rather than oppressions? Different houses – whether physical and representative, or electronic and virtual, for those groups with different reproductive strategies.

    3. Is There a Way Out of Our Current Situation? Can We Gain Control of Our Own Countries Again?

    [O]f course. But… Gossip is cheap. Violence is very expensive – but very fast and effective. And preferences are demonstrated not stated. There is no cunning solution. There is no easy answer. None. You are either going to use violence to demand change, or lose your civilization forever. We will either agitate a small minority to raise the cost of our competitors’ loading, framing, overloading, engaging in pseudoscience and lying, and raise the cost of their colonization, or we will prove we are just talking not acting.

    4. How Do We Create a Revolution?

    The problem with a revolution is that in and of itself, it‘s just an expression of frustration. It doesn’t necessarily bring change for the better. And some revolutions are far worse than their original states: France and Russia in particular. To implement change one has to have something to demand. And what one demands has to satisfy a lot of people‘s interests. Those demands have to be possible to put into operational processes that we call ‘institutions‘. They have to be possible to persist regardless of the beliefs of the participants. So they have to create the right incentives.

    1. So to create a revolution you need moral authority – something that people will willingly use violence to bring about. And as a moral imperative, and moral justification,  TRUTH IS ENOUGH. We are tired of lies, pseudoscience, and obscurant rational justifications. We are tired of our elites burning our civilization.

      The truth is enough. Unlike gossip, guilting and shaming. And unlike pseudo-science and propaganda, the truth is expensive.  Truth is the most powerful argumentative weapon ever developed. And Propertarianism teaches us how to demand truth and speak the truth.
    2. After moral authority – then you need a political solution – something to demand, and in sufficient detail that it is possible to discuss rationally, and implement as formal institutions.
    3. Then you need a sufficient plan of transition that a revolution isn‘t necessary, and people don‘t die by the millions to do it.
    4. Then you need a rough set of goals – not a plan – for nullification, secession, revolution, and civil war – and hope you can accomplish it with incremental nullification and secession but willing to conduct a revolution or civil war if need be. And you pursue all of them at once.
    5. Then you need an ‘organization‘ – a group of people who act as the general staff that answer questions, and propose ideas on how to implement, how to transition and how to raise the cost of the status quo so that the transition is preferable to the uncertainty and instability.
    6. Then you need a small number of people willing to die for their people, culture, and civilization, but who have reasonable belief that their sacrifice is not in vain.

    I don’t go into tactics because that‘s unwise. But in general, I try to get across this idea: How many hours of electricity, days of water, days of food, days of ‘order‘ are in the production line every day? I mean, if bad stuff happens in Ukraine and Russia, 40% of food is produced by the people. Everyone can go back to the village to relatives and the farm. What happens in the developed world if it‘s disrupted? We live in the most fragile time in history. It no longer takes masses in the streets to bring about revolution. It takes a small number of people to increase the friction of daily life. It has never been easier to create a revolution. People just need a plan, moral authority, and something to demand. It‘s our job to give it to them. (Or, mine at least.)
