mircea_popescu: but are you sure they can.

mircea_popescu: dubious.
mircea_popescu: the only way out is submission, abject.

mircea_popescu: so ?
mircea_popescu: it NEEDS it. once that fails, IT fails.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field the idea that as the skin fails away the body can move to a 2nd line of defense is ridiculous. people with burns over 80% of the surface don't survive on their own.
mircea_popescu: orly ?
mircea_popescu: take, for argument's sake, the guy in tienanmen. now, the cost of the tank running him over ? w/e, five cents in detergent and ten cents in gasoline.
mircea_popescu: a simpler time.
mircea_popescu: your model's anchored in an older time, a quieter time.
mircea_popescu: but not in 1600.
mircea_popescu: that world doesn't exist, most soldiers die of ricochet.
mircea_popescu: your model worked fine in a world of lumberjacks and church bell towers a day's walk away from each other.
mircea_popescu: and all society's a swamp.
mircea_popescu: costs, baby. nothing's more expensive than action, especially when you're in a swamp.
mircea_popescu: a year ago it was at best dubious.
mircea_popescu: but in any case, her negotiating basis changed, and so now the victory of the opposition is incontrovertible.
mircea_popescu: i doubt anyone seriously believes she moves into anything but a jail cell once term ends. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: plus, everything else, starting with the press and ending with... who the fuck wants to talk to her now ? kim ?
mircea_popescu: what was the cost of this ? there's three working on it now. so the cost was, superficially, problem x3.
mircea_popescu: take an example further away, may help. so cristina ordered the death of a prosecutor that was going to put her in jail.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field you're miscalculating costs.
mircea_popescu: i don't happen to share that view.
mircea_popescu: now, granted, a transhumanist in the audience aged about 11 and with an education consisting mostly of harry potter books may think himself so important that this is a bad deal.

mircea_popescu: what's the cost to the elite ?
mircea_popescu: who wins the next election ? jeb bush ?

mircea_popescu: suppose petreus didn't go down for it, went on a snowden tour. what then ?
mircea_popescu: they did it themselves, by doing what you propose is "unavoidable".
mircea_popescu: the bitinstant schmuck did it himself also.
mircea_popescu: he did that himself.
mircea_popescu: right ?
mircea_popescu: but these folk somehow get away with it.
mircea_popescu: clinton ejaculating on some fat broad is not outrageous, sparked an outrage.
mircea_popescu: but think for a moment through it. so, in a country where petreus can't have fun with an ugly stupiod old whore, there still exist these people who can do outrageous things.
mircea_popescu: arguably on both ends of that.
mircea_popescu: assets are liabilities. that's what it is.
mircea_popescu: on the contrary.
mircea_popescu: you understand ? the ro revolution was not in the slightest hindered by the fact the ro army tanks were right there.
mircea_popescu: there are no tanks here.
mircea_popescu: but this banal fact is not a fact.
mircea_popescu: i am saying two things. one is that your model of "folks involved" is actually inconsistent. the other is that for any consistent model, the -ev is so pronounced as to make any other alternative rationally preferable.
mircea_popescu: anyway, back on the "salvation" angle : is the doctor who cures your cancer savbing you ? suppose you die coming out of the hospital run over by a bus. what salvation ?
mircea_popescu: because your description of this entity has more in common with that which doesn't exist than with that which does, and so parsimoniously it doesn't exist.
mircea_popescu: people mostly don't believe the usg statements in the case of ulbricht. what when they're actually made up ?
mircea_popescu: ascii_field and who will believe their cover ?
mircea_popescu: (by which i mean : has teh physical characteristics of inexistence)
mircea_popescu: o, right. it will be used by soemthing that doesn't actually exist ?
mircea_popescu: i surmise you don't use it in the christian sense, but what do you mean by it ?
mircea_popescu: ascii_field what does it mean "to be saved" ?
mircea_popescu: by all means.
mircea_popescu: so...
mircea_popescu: and it costs real actual value, not dollars.
mircea_popescu: like, one year in prison ? costs you nothing, costs them 100k or w/e it is.
mircea_popescu: every anything you propose costs the usg way more than it costs you.
mircea_popescu: the situation isn't magically changed just because we're no longer shooting.
mircea_popescu: think for a second of the "antisocial struggle" example : every shot cop costs the state millions, and the shooter a bullet.
mircea_popescu: but that was not this.
mircea_popescu: the situation is that some guys are trying to torment the universe. this is dysfunctional as a plan.
mircea_popescu: your ideas work in this situation where the usg is "the universe" and the guy it torments just a guy.
mircea_popescu: you misread the incentives tho.
mircea_popescu: ie, the same usg that gets killed with the weapons it made and gave away.
mircea_popescu: right.
mircea_popescu: who ordered them made and what's his faith based on that he won't be the first they'll be tried on ?
mircea_popescu: well its mere existence. so who made these ? robots ?
mircea_popescu: and this will work, because reality is fan fiction and any nonsense can happen.
mircea_popescu: yaya.

mircea_popescu: people usually have to pay for that sort of security.

mircea_popescu: well so if it's clear clarify it!
mircea_popescu: since when is what X will asume our point of interest ?
mircea_popescu: ...
mircea_popescu: why ?
mircea_popescu: i guess.
mircea_popescu: well then what do you destroy ?
mircea_popescu: it must stay there, forever, inaccessible. let em fucking twitch in agony.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field nah, i wouldn't destreoy it.
mircea_popescu: it's exactly the same thing, for a new, and "dark" generation.
mircea_popescu: jews have all the money and power, men have all the money and power, jews have secret conspiracies to keep aryans down, men have secret conspiracies to keep womyn down, real aryans wouldn't fuck jews, real womyn wouldn't fuck men,
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron anyway, nazism also aimed to make the wortld a better place. this is indisputable. and it also aimed to do this by empowering a subgroup at the expense of other subgroups, which it perceived , falsely, as oppressive. the identity between internet feminism and fascism is quite indisputable.
mircea_popescu: finally a chance to exercise that fiat justitia, pereat mundi thing, and entirely within one's own hand. how to pass such a thing ?

mircea_popescu: ascii_field because they're not actually tyhinking
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=19-03-2015#1057737 << technically correct : a period they know least about would be dark. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=19-03-2015#1057732 << yeah, they figure they can pass laws substantially going "if we need your money you must give it to us" and that'll do anything more than dissolve the uk as a legal entity. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: an' something more spanish http://40.media.tumblr.com/b0b36b3bf037077c28002f7deb95deac/tumblr_mujcujfepM1qh70jeo1_1280.jpg
