mircea_popescu: you can spend the rest of your days doing it for all i care, 24/7. you're to report each weekend and i'll pay you mondays.

mircea_popescu: yeah but it mixes the people in there. what'd the people know.
mircea_popescu: certainly murder of political figures is always justified on the face. they were, after all, political figures.
mircea_popescu: guy shooting hitler would necessarily live in an alt-universe where shooting hitler's death is not justified by hitler being hitler, and so on.
mircea_popescu: by the time you realise you should have it's too late.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform im sure the reason is exactly like the discussion re the altcoin
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform im sure they couldn't have survived in ther wild, but i dun see why that should matter.
mircea_popescu: i guess a lot of foreign military officers wondered why they've not simply shot hitler at any point in the 30s, just walk up to him and boom.
mircea_popescu: i have no idea why i didn't just take the birds across.
mircea_popescu: among which two pelicans. which had figured where the door was, and what a door is. and were angling together to perhaps scare a dumbass tourist and manage to get out.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform my only lingering regret from my days in costa rica is that one day i've visited a bird reserve. a large geodome sorta thing with a lot of birds in it.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform did i ever tell you about the two pellicans ?
mircea_popescu: which ironically makes the entire "terrorist" thing quite appropriate, except, i wouldn't shot them for the show (which is what terrorism implies, that you kill people for no reason than to impress other people). i'd do it because their continued existence is incompatible with mine.
mircea_popescu: there's very little doubt in my mind that if i were in the sort of situation most folk over there enjoy, i'd simply be shooting people.
mircea_popescu: decimation most of humanity lives on less than ten bux a week.

mircea_popescu: thestringpuller well tbh, i dun see why i'd have wanted to leave huxley's world. just hang out with the boss guy down at the bar.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller then eiher it's not a family, you're being forced to or you will be forced to.
mircea_popescu: <decimation> I guess it's hard to escape with family intact << people with families have no business escaping.
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> we can surmise that he refused one or more, but they aren't done yet << something like that.
mircea_popescu: exactly the same problems that limit the mob limit the government, and can be used identically.
mircea_popescu: this isn't nearly as cut and dried a matter as the usg likes to pretend (forced mistake, it has no alternative than to so pretend).
mircea_popescu: perhaps you need your computers, perhaps you need access to a certain server, who's to know.
mircea_popescu: and if you are able to talk, who's going to be able to control what you say, and to whom ?
