by Ely Harman Progressives are the “establishment.” They are not “rebels” they are not “marginalized.” They are the powers that be and they use their institutional power, which they weild through something like 95% of all instititions to crush dissent, to shut down opposition, to silence criticism, and to squelch discussion. They also use their power only for bad, dysgenia, parasitism, lies fraud, corruption, degeneracy, weakness worship, mediocrity, stagnation, decay, uglification, everything that is mean, gross, defective, foul, or inferior and nothing that is excellent, good, beautiful, truthful or pure.

The Decline of Prosperous Cities
https://townhall.com/columnists/walterewilliams/2018/04/18/a-mayors-most-important-job-n2471301 from Walter Williams: —“When World War II ended, Washington, D.C.’s population was about 900,000; today it’s about 700,000. In 1950, Baltimore’s population was almost 950,000; today it’s around 614,000. Detroit’s 1950 population was close to 1.85 million; today it’s down to 673,000. Camden, New Jersey’s 1950 population was nearly 125,000; today it has fallen to 77,000. St. Louis’ 1950 population was more than 856,000; today it’s less than 309,000. A similar story of population decline can be found in most of our formerly large and prosperous cities. In some cities, population declines since 1950 are well over 50 percent. In addition to Detroit and St. Louis, those would include Cleveland and Pittsburgh.”— (via Anoop Verma) Apr 19, 2018 8:18am

THE “PROBLEM” OF CORPORATIONS Actually, the corporation was produced and remains
THE “PROBLEM” OF CORPORATIONS
Actually, the corporation was produced and remains, a means of insuring risk takers such that their losses are limited to their shared investments in the experiment.
The problem with corporations is that they, much like the government bureaucracy and politicians, are insulated from tort (universal standing) so that we cannot correct behavior of organizations for their harm to the commons.
Class actions are too hard to pursue, and we cannot sue in defense of the commons. The government prevents us from doing so.

(important concept) ***But when you (or others) say ‘national socialism’ I don’t
(important concept)
***But when you (or others) say ‘national socialism’ I don’t really know what that means, other than to say that in my understanding we run the government in the interest of the tribe (nationalism) using rule of law, without engaging in discretionary rule.” And in that case I don’t know what ‘socialism means’ since nationalism and socialism are synonyms, just as communism and universalism are synonyms.***
(worth repeating, worth memorizing)

The Only Solution Is Rule of Law (A Priesthood Of Judges)
Also: The problem for sub saharan africa (and for most of the world) is (a) the tradition of stealing on behalf of your family tribe and clan, and (b) the expression of this tradition in *corruption*. The only fix for corruption is not to demand good people (they don’t exist) but to create good judges. If you demand uncorrupt judges (and kill them if they are not uncorrupt), the judges will prosecute politicians. Until you have an army or police force, and a judiciary that is paid enough that corruption is not ‘valuable’, then it does not matter what government you have. step 1. soldiers who protect the people. step 2. judges who are not corrupt step 3. police (or soldiers) who will enforce the judge’s rule. It is cheaper to create highly paid police and judges than to create a highly paid military. The world is very simple if we stop trying to find good men, and instead, punish people who are bad – leaving only good people able to work in government. Ukraine has the same problem. Every poor country has the same problem. Westerners do not have this problem because we were always a militia – meaning all men fight. This is the secret to western successes. It all begins with our militia.

FB has to go the telco route and add taboos and dislikes to disassociate people
FB has to go the telco route and add taboos and dislikes to disassociate people with conflicting interests, thus allowing companies to avoid advertising to, or to advertise to, preferences, interests, taboos and dislikes.
The truth is they already have the data but don’t like the consequences of it.

Demographic Capital
Intellectual capital is over. The globalist era is ending. The only competitive advantages any population has are (a) demographic (b) normative and institutional, and (c) territorial. That’s it. We cannot compete with the numbers. We don’t have them. We gave those numbers away. So the only thing we can do is protect our assets (a) demographic, (b) normative and institutional, and (c) territorial.
