    LESSONS FROM ISIS

    More isn’t better. The problem with 1M men, is feeding and sheltering them. That’s not a problem with 10k, or even 50K men. Groups of 150 are most effective. But in general, you need a lot of men working to feed the rest. Or, you have to plunder, then work, plunder then work. But as we learned from ISIS, if you keep moving and don’t try to hold territory it’s almost impossible to stop you. ISIS only had something on the order of 20k to start with. And while we have estimates of up to 50k in the fields those are very questionable numbers. If you are going to have more men it is better to fight multiple fronts (regions) with 10K groups of men, than it is to have 1M. Shutting down a major city is trivial with even a few hundred men. The only value of large numbers of people is so that the few who do the hard work of real fighting can hide among them as human shields.

    HOW MAO OUTED PROGRESSIVES

    —“Programs pursued during this time include the Hundred Flowers Campaign, in which Mao indicated his supposed willingness to consider different opinions about how China should be governed. Given the freedom to express themselves, liberal and intellectual Chinese began opposing the Communist Party and questioning its leadership. This was initially tolerated and encouraged. After a few months, Mao’s government reversed its policy and persecuted those, totaling perhaps 500,000,[citation needed] who criticised, as well as those who were merely alleged to have criticised, the party in what is called the Anti-Rightist Movement. Authors such as Jung Chang have alleged that the Hundred Flowers Campaign was merely a ruse to root out “dangerous” thinking.

    Li Zhisui, Mao’s physician, suggested that Mao had initially seen the policy as a way of weakening opposition to him within the party and that he was surprised by the extent of criticism and the fact that it came to be directed at his own leadership.[190] It was only then that he used it as a method of identifying and subsequently persecuting those critical of his government. The Hundred Flowers movement led to the condemnation, silencing, and death of many citizens, also linked to Mao’s Anti-Rightist Movement, resulting in deaths possibly in the millions”—

    REVOLUTIONARY CHANGE REQUIRES VERY SMALL POPULATIONS

    The only large scale study I’ve seen is that it’s 1.6% gay, and .7% b/t. It’s just a highly politically active community. (Where did this nonsense rate of homosexuality being 11% come from? )

    The jewish population is about the same, between 1.6 and 2.2% depending upon which question is asked.

    Together they are less than 5% of the population

    Jewish outbreeding is around 58% in total, and over 75% for non practitioners. Now, the media is saturated with both, but the point I want to make is that these are very small populations.

    Revolutions require only small populations.

  • Social Media Politics = Pillow Talk (Honesty)

    Replying to @JonHaidt DEMOCRACY = MONOPOLY 1) Markets allow competing groups to collaborate on means, even if they pursue opposing ends. Classical Houses of classes create a market. Democracy creates a monopoly by eliminating the market for commons between the classes, and forcing conflict into the informational commons. COSMOPOLITANISM = POLITICAL COMMUNISM 2) Cosmopolitanism(political communism) has failed everywhere its tried, just as has economic communism(socialism), and commons communism (libertarianism).Yet people pursue heterogeneous polities despite only homogenous polities exiting poverty, corruption, low trust, and tribalism. SOCIAL MEDIA IS AS ACCURATE AS PILLOW TALK 3) BTW: As far as I know, (a) we over-report compromise, and over-demonstrate on conflict. (b) we self-report more honestly online than in person. (c) We most accurately self-report in conflict (from a position of physical safety.) IOW: social media = “political pillow talk”.

  • —“Can You Define the Terms Radical Right and Radical Left?”—

    THE CORRECT ANSWER (Really)Left (Socialist), …. Female Reproductive Strategy: Equity independent of demonstrated merit. …. Consumption Preference, …. Demand Discretionary rule. …. Values: Exclusively Care, and Proportionality. …. Result: Dysgenic. -> The Radical Left is Activist and willing to forcibly impose their preferred order: Individual > Community > Polity > World (Herds) Libertarian (Classical Liberal), …. Ascendent Male Reproductive Strategy: Meritocracy, …. Capital Generation Preference, …. Demand Rule of Law of Reciprocity. …. Values: Almost Exclusively Liberty. …. Result: Eugenic Tilt. -> The Radical Libertarians are Activist and NOT willing to forcibly impose their preferred order: Individual > Markets. (Solitary Hunters.) Right (Aristocratic), …. Established Male Reproductive Strategy: Meritocracy, …. Capital Accumulation Preference, …. Demand Rule of Law of Reciprocity. …. Values: Complete Spectrum of Care, Proportionality, Loyalty, Hierarchy, Purity. …. Result: Eugenic. -> The Radical Right is Activist and willing to forcibly impose their preferred order: Family > Clan > Tribe > Nation > Nationalism (Packs) Voting Patterns Underclasses, Minorities, and Single White Women vote Left (self), while White males and MarriedWhite females vote right (family). (See Pew research). White women are the only defectors from their tribe. In Simple Terms: Political choices are intuitionistic because they are too general due to representatives and parties to vote with greater discretion. So we see voting patterns and political affiliation reflect Cognitive biases to advance the feminine dysgenic (herd) reproductive strategy or advance the male eugenic (pack) strategy. This is rather obvious given the difference (vast) in male and female reproductive and survival strategies. Really, That’s the answer. And that’s what all the data tells us. And it’s also why representative democracy is a catastrophe waiting to happen.
