mircea_popescu: "Men use the night to erase us...The annihilation of a woman's personality, individuality, will, character, is prerequisite to male sexuality, and so the night is the sacred time of male sexual celebration, because it is dark and in the dark it is easier not to see: not to see who she is. Male sexuality, drunk on its intrinsic contempt for all life, but especially for women's lives, can run wild, hunt down random victi
mircea_popescu: The following, which gives the flavor, is from Andrea Dworkin, who I gather is a sort of museum-piece siege howitzer for feminism. It's pretty much how they all talk. Listen:
mircea_popescu: looking through that site - seems the average lifetime of a "serious" blog is in the hundreds. i would guess from my own experience less than 1% of a personal attempt survives the 1k articles mark.
mircea_popescu: the gold-fringed flags in the background stand for "ruled from abroad.""
mircea_popescu: "Barack Obama is the current CEO of the USA Corporation and
mircea_popescu: "Note: The history of the Khazarians, specifically the Khazarian Mafia (KM), the Worlds largest Organized Crime Syndicate that the Khazarian oligarchy morphed into by their deployment of Babylonian Money-Magick, has been nearly completely excised from the history books."
mircea_popescu: "Somos una empresa líder en la venta de cuatriciclos deportivos y Agrarios Blackstone. Contamos con una alta cobertura de repuestos y servicios de post- venta."
mircea_popescu: hence the interest of things that are predicated on breaking that imagined wall (say - madmax ?)
mircea_popescu: i expect ~half the various anarcho-this and that, so-and-so-punks etc are pretty much equal to that when it comes to social organizing. "let's all live as dunbar number communes in the desert, inaccessible from one another like."
mircea_popescu: but the fantasy is alive and well, hence "hunger games" and whatnot.
mircea_popescu: this way of life can obviously only exist for as long as you know... it's not universal.
mircea_popescu: which is amusingly biographical : fighter circuit consists of groups of a few hundred people (the boxer, his team, people at his club, his social acquaintances etc) that come together under very strictly controlled setting (matches) and otherwise are very strictly separated.
mircea_popescu: his method works for any arbitrary number, providerd of course they never exist in groups larger than a few hundred and those groups are strictly separated.
mircea_popescu: and honestly, if i'm going to ride the bus once, i'd much rather ride it with lafond than plenty of other people.
mircea_popescu: heck, i could do without needing a spylist longer than most serial monogamists' ex-fucks list just to keep things slightly above water.
mircea_popescu: da fuck would i need bitcoin for, in a world where the win criteria is "work out a little".
mircea_popescu: heck, all the fucktarded broken software stack would really not be a point of concern if all it took was you know, hitting the gym three times a week and not being over 60.
mircea_popescu: but i dunno that anyone actually sees them the way sake makes phf fear anyone sees them.
mircea_popescu: there's nothing wrong with it, obviously. and the freshness of perspective is welcome, certainly. and i enjoy reading them, generally.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo his approach is fundamentally broken, fwiw. "oh, be in shape and you'll..." you'll what ? you'll die, just like everyone else. what's it gonna do, exactly ? he keeps spinning these... what they are is basically "believable superman strips". self-contained submarine-jetfighter except you know, not actually THAT capable, so the weakness of the "self-contained" fantasy is a little harder to put under fire.
mircea_popescu: nah. trompi is a putative divinity introduced by a comic strip. he's more mysterious than the fsm in that outside of me and those guys nobody even references it.
mircea_popescu: (yes, lenin is a bit player in a story that marx didn't start, and the french didn't start. the stone fell i nthe lake long long ago.)
mircea_popescu: i mean for the holy name of Trompi, they like even know shit and whatnot.
mircea_popescu: "The most important consequence of the Papal Revolution was that it introduced into Western history the experience of revolution itself."
mircea_popescu: is this what two blowhards turned into ? or unrelated ?
mircea_popescu: "Atypical Neurotic. An Illinois-born refugee from academia who in late middle-age finds himself a civil servant in Norway. An unashamed city-dweller, he walks 30 minutes every day to a job where he is not paid to be an economist (lawyer or accountant), only to sound like one."
mircea_popescu: imagine telling her about "the world before cellphones" as her mom lived it.
mircea_popescu: so if your daughter's born recently, she has 50-50 odds of living her entire life publicly nude.
mircea_popescu: "where's your profile pic" of the 90s gave way to the "where's your instagram account" of the 2000s which gave way to "you make and send nude selfies on demand as a prequal" of today which will give way to something, dat much is fo sho.
mircea_popescu: punkman that's nothing. i suspect the pedigree of "women with a sexual market value" will in the future require full coverage much like the sale of cattle and other biomaterial includes full documentation by default today.
mircea_popescu: fifty years ago, back when they were "opressed" us blacks ACTUALLY HAD SOMETHING. meanwhile they've been... liberated out of it.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile if you look at the actual demographics involved the loss of identity, cultural, biological, you name it has been MORE marked for the minority and is certainly going faster.
mircea_popescu: there's 2k years' worth of actual social science being amused at lafond's "hi world i'm an ex boxer lemme tell you how the world looks through my glass" schtick.
mircea_popescu:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=29-09-2015#1287253 << i dunno that it is. honestly, "Race relations" in the sense of, here's a 10-15% ish scapegoat minority is the lulz of all time. same role the gypsies play in romania, same exact role of the small rus / white rus whatever in russian rhetoric, what the fuck are the ukrainians gonna do, bleed on everyone ?
☝︎ mircea_popescu: "When blockchain technology will become more adopted by businesses, is an ether price of 100$ realistic ? (self.ethtrader)"
mircea_popescu: <BingoBoingo> It was still organized crime, but organized crime is always going to exist everywhere. << organised crime is one step down from government and certainly better than disorganised crime in all situations except those of extreme abundance
mircea_popescu: <phf> (i'm saying lafond because that's where i assume most people here are getting their racial relationship information from) << eh no they aren't, cmon.
mircea_popescu: <BingoBoingo> "Mayor Francis Slay << nice name at least.
mircea_popescu: course, not nearly as heroic as "dude that has a bunch of other altcoins anal rings around his penis said ethereum's no different, and he had an open offer we mostly didn't take, and now it turns out it's no different and let's not mention the bitbet bet on the matter if possible."
mircea_popescu: Since Ether went live he has disappeared and refused to discuss the issue anymore, and it is unlikely anyone could've collected from him at any point.
mircea_popescu: "Short summary from clicking the link: this dude claimed to know Ethereum would fail, so during the crowd sale he offered Ether at a huge discount to the official price. Since nobody took him up on this amazing offer of selling something he didn't have at a price cheaper than the price people were willing to pay to people who actually had Ether to sell, he declared victory.
mircea_popescu: there is no way to "fix things" by finding the right way to fold the paper.
mircea_popescu: the overarching point being that whatever paper dickery they choose makes exactly 0 difference in the field.
mircea_popescu: this is the problem of "regimes", let's call it. a quest for oxigen, underwater. there's no more oxygen being added.
mircea_popescu: the more they do of that, the less rope they have left.
mircea_popescu: dunno if a peace prize so much. how about 40 virgins and a burning bed or what was it ?
mircea_popescu: looks more like chappelle shooting a confused farmhand.
mircea_popescu: to add to the -15% yest and the 10% day before that and in general...
mircea_popescu: but hey, the party's over. all that's left of america are the fly shat pictures of granpa on the wall.
mircea_popescu: possibly most unamerican thing ever seen, heard or thought.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski the epic moment where a kenyan and a chinese agreed that "the us can't pull itself out of the shit without chinese support".
mircea_popescu: yeah, by filling the country with a bunch of retarded assholes you wholeheartedly feel like driving over.
mircea_popescu: how about make being poor very fucking sad, so they have SOME incentive to stop lying to themnselves about it.
mircea_popescu: somehow it managed to be worse off as "existoware" than it was 6 months ago as 6 months late vaporware.
mircea_popescu: last i heard ethereum is today in a state that is generally worse than not existing at all.
mircea_popescu: <pete_dushenski> mircea_popescu "Ethereum now actually exists" << what the fuck does this even mean ?
mircea_popescu: it's clearly a square. one edge has been optimized pretty well. tiome to do the other one ?
mircea_popescu: no but seriously. at what point does the idea form that hey, minuscule "pollutants" out of extant cars aren't the problem. stop giving so many derps cars!
mircea_popescu: i guess derpy amherst dude could have benefited from jewish mother.
mircea_popescu: jewish mothers have a saying, something like, "stick to being honest, you're too dumb to be crooked."
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski at least he could have the commo nfucking decency to make a new nick, like every dumbass / scammer before him.
mircea_popescu: the budget of the entire scamolade is ~150 btc, and i doubt they're actually willing to burn all of it in support of this paycoin.
mircea_popescu: <mike_c> holy shit it's down to 1800 btc? what did they start with, 30k? << "30k".
