mircea_popescu: no, no, bukharin got sent
to buy
the marx archives from
the french socialists.
mircea_popescu: (incidentally, he was very popular with xiaoping, who was 30 at
the
time. why was he not in #china ?)
mircea_popescu: so
this barrett brown, was he sent with... whatever, pick a 20yo slightly slack-jawed beauty
to beijing, whence he returned
to
the us "because he can't live outside of
the great satan" ?
mircea_popescu: eh, dude got shipped
to paris young slut in
tow. utterly asking for it.
mircea_popescu: i can't deem
the instrument valid, no matter what
the (known
terrorists) say.
mircea_popescu: heh. according
to whom,
this ? he can't
talk
to "the media".
mircea_popescu: o, right, because
the criminal gang will
tell you what
to say.
mircea_popescu: anyway,
to get back
to
the history of
the dodo bird : enoch did in
the 1970 election about what
trump did in
the 2016 election. except enoch did not get
the prime minister job (same dork hath got perpetuated, by
the same exact swamp for
the same exact sort of reasons).
mircea_popescu: it's an argument often found in
the hands of
the socialist / statist ,
that single men make mistakes which deliberating bodies might have avoided.
this is a ridiculous argument : for every case of
that
there's
ten
thousand cases of mistakes
them bodies make single men would have readily avoided.
mircea_popescu: a richard might have had, perhaps. he certainlt found
the ~equivalent in
the saxon-norman dispute. but no body of man ever can.
mircea_popescu: anyway,
this is
the fundamental limit of "democracy" in ~any sense~. no sort of consultative body, no matter what kind or
type, would have ever fallen on
the correct solution cca 1939, which was
to say
to hitler "hey, you seem like a strapping young chap,
tell you what, each dog must have his day says our poet. would you like india ?"
mircea_popescu: but
to quote napier, which is why i even linked him, "So perverse is mankind
that every nationality prefers
to be misgoverned by its own people
than
to be well ruled by another."
mircea_popescu: the overflow of all
the "i'm
too lazy
to work, and i have
twittering
to do rather
than
thinking" is certainly in
the way.
mircea_popescu: sadly
the same process was stopped short in congo, and in india, and generally.
mircea_popescu: nevertheless : a whole population of redskins disappeared over a coupla centuries because, day after day and year after year, each individually made
their choice : would i rather work and
think, or would i rather die ? and
they chose
to die, and
they died, AND
THEY ARE NOT MISSED.
mircea_popescu: aha. but i was for
the sake of argument going
to
the outer edges of
the perhaps unlikely.
mircea_popescu: imagine a belgian congo
the size of all india! virtually no indians left
today, etc.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yep. and with germany acquiring india
the whole lebensraum
thing'd have been gone out of anyone's mind.
mircea_popescu: point being it'd have worked closer
to a sort of nepal /
taiwan / whatever
than
to a sort of north korea.
mircea_popescu: and besides,
tiny island of shit, nobody wants and nobody cares.
mircea_popescu: but
then again, zee prussians always had a higher view of englishmen
than of russians.
mircea_popescu: amusingly, england would have fared a lot better if it made a humble peace with germany cca 1939,
than as it did making a gaudy, and empty, alliance with
the only
true enemy of humanity, and human liberty.
mircea_popescu: that's
the only practical point in all of
this. yes england was a piece of shit slated for
the garbage heap anyway, sure. but
there can not be such a
thing as an ally of
the us.
mircea_popescu: basically, englidiots permitted
their "allies"
to airstrip one
them.
mircea_popescu: "That
tragic and intractable phenomenon which we watch with horror on
the other side of
the Atlantic but which
there is interwoven with
the history and existence of
the States itself, is coming upon us here by our own volition and our own neglect. Indeed, it has all but come. In numerical
terms, it will be of American proportions long before
the end of
the century."
mircea_popescu: in other words - it's not like
there wasn't ample warning.
there was.
the fucktards of #england failed
to act in
the proper manner.
mircea_popescu: the right
to shrug my shoulders and
think about something else. What he is saying,
thousands and hundreds of
thousands are saying and
thinking – not
throughout Great Britain, perhaps, but in
the areas
that are already undergoing
the
total
transformation
to which
there is no parallel in a
thousand years of English history." et al.
mircea_popescu: "I can already hear
the chorus of execration. How dare I say such a horrible
thing? How dare I stir up
trouble and inflame feelings by repeating such a conversation?
The answer is
that I do not have
the right not
to do so. Here is a decent, ordinary fellow-Englishman, who in broad daylight in my own
town says
to me, his Member of Parliament,
that
this country will not be worth living in for his children. I simply do not have
jhvh1: shinohai:
The operation succeeded.
mircea_popescu: if you employ
them you might have relations with
them outside of facebook (which is assault!!!) and
they may be grateful or in any way develop positive feelings for you (which is abuse!!11)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it is verboten, in
today's reich,
to employ anyone.
a111: Logged on 2017-04-29 13:29 mircea_popescu: diana_coman yes, and
this is exactly my greater point here : competent people don't understand how
to defend
themselves from
the
tedx crowd, and don't.
they're, basically speaking, dodo birds.
mircea_popescu: the woman he mentions (corinne camilleri-ferrante) died a few years back.
the guardian has an empty, google spam page on her name.
mircea_popescu: there's a difference across
the atlantic, conservative/republican aren't ~same, so on.
mircea_popescu: truth be
told it's very common for large groups of people
to do ~no
thinking whatsoever.
mircea_popescu: "In its early years
the Group produced a few carefully researched papers, which
the Conservative Party really had
to
take notice of because no-one else in
the Party gave
the impression of doing any
thinking at all." << he's
talking of
the republican party in
the 80s, ie,
that supposed golden age of reaganism. and he's not right, either.
mircea_popescu: but since we're doing etimologies or what was it, apparently uppity
tortilla (who was living independently for incomprehensible reasons) set his apartment on fire, and other
than being kicked out is being prosecuted by a bunch of people who claim he owes
them money (again).
mircea_popescu: really, bitfinex has a nonzero volume ?
truly, btcchina deals in bitcoin now ? will miracles never cease ?
mircea_popescu: reading
those "volume" figures is such a lulz in and of itself.
mircea_popescu: Framedragger basically what you're saying is
that you disapprove of fiat pseudolaw being applied, when obviously
the republic is
the only sovereign. which, yes, is not a controversial point.
BingoBoingo: And
the presumptive leader of Pantsuit
to challenge
Trump in 2020 is likely
to be Elizabeth 'Pocahontas' Warren
BingoBoingo: Not really. Not between
the pantsuit judges and
the realization
that Congress is a bunch of welfare queens.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo all in all
the first hundred aren't as much of a lulz shower as
the first dozen seemed
to imply huh.
jhvh1: shinohai:
The operation succeeded.
mircea_popescu: Framedragger hey,
they were
trying
to spread
teh nsa goodword!
Framedragger: it quotes some statement official or w/e, but is
there
mats: the honesty would be refreshing, but i see no mention of falun gong in
that lin
Framedragger: mats: sure, sure. but it's *particularly* in-your-face when you're pitching and saying "we can
track X down so you can er lawfully
take care of em"
BingoBoingo: Anyways
this cult seems
to have realized
the leftists humanitatians care more for spreading Aids in Africa and would rather cozy up
to
Trump
mats: cisco's not special in
that way, just particularly visible
Framedragger: saw 'em in seoul,
too. "meh", let
them be, no?
mats: anyone exporting
tech,
then, is guilty of
the same
mats: i'd be surprised if any
tech corp in us does not comply with CALEA
Framedragger: not sure if falun gong really had done much at
that point. but cisco wiretapping was used
to
track 'em down and kill 'em
Framedragger: i still say 'fuck you cisco' for pitching (and later selling) customised surveillance infrastructure
to china by saying
that its shit can "combat ‘Falun Gong’ evil religion and other hostiles" (sic)
mats: most of
the west's exported culture is death cult
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform hey,
they want
to be part of
the great beyond / "our" democracy!
mats: the 'bodies exhibit' is, even now, plagued by persistent rumors like
that
