tempting me

the 'La Marseillaise'
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: i was nearly disowned from marching band at one
time for insisting on continuance
to Star Spangled Banner's 3rd verse
decimation: asciilifeform: I
thought iran went apeshit because of
the british and us meddling
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Iran has always been more ready
then
the
turks
BingoBoingo: As a USian I have
to assume ISIS must be bad, and
therefore Obumer sucks for not letting me
take potshots at
them.
mircea_popescu: i
think
they stole more circassians
than
the dutch stole africans.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Your plague is high standards. So long as
their only demand is I shoot brown people,
then I and
them will be fine.

The fucking local mall
turned me down last X-mas season. Not any specific vendor, but all of
them.
mircea_popescu: you can probably make decent loot with
the various brackwaters.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform:
They spotted me
the last
time with a specific mental defect
they refuse
to abide
mircea_popescu: life's what happens while people had other plans, an' posteriority remembers what you did BESIDES paying
the bills.
BingoBoingo maybe surprisingly would still be willing
to carry a rifle
to
tikrit in USia's name. Just since USia didn't accept my flirtations last
time if
they
take me
this
time I want
to pick
the rifle.
decimation: the historians who would be worth a shit are probably busy
trying
to keep
their house and eat
mircea_popescu: this merely speaks
to
the poor quality of english "historians". where's
the new york gibbon ?
mircea_popescu: nobody has made a "Russia and
the US in
the 1800s : A
Tale Of
Twin Sisters" monograph
to date
mircea_popescu: pretty much
the same problems,
the same solutions,
the same obsession of women with french and men with german shit and so on.
mircea_popescu: at
the
time, in fact,
the us and russia had a shitload in common : inept peripheral immense landmasses.
mircea_popescu: it's easy
to recast
today as some sort of nefariousness, but if regarded properly rather
than anchronistically it's just exactly
the same as imperial russians
trying
to copy prussia.
decimation: although I don't know how one could find a history
that isn't wrapped in progressive bullshit
mircea_popescu: decimation in particular,
the us fed was an attempt
to copy germany, at
the
time extremely effectual.
BingoBoingo: decimation: Crassus was
the Fire department
decimation: nevertheless, I
take your point
that
the study of
this history is worthwhile
mircea_popescu: anyway, i dunno where
that wb quote is, somewhere in his 70s brk letters. all poetic about how great paying
taxes is because hey, being rich's unfair.
decimation: did morgan et al not meet on jekyll island
to institute
the fed?
mircea_popescu: for one
thing,
they're
too stupid
to understand it, for another
they don't speak
the language, for
the
third
they imagine
they have political judgements
to make.
mircea_popescu: an' generally, i'd be wary of
trusting
the current retards' retelling of century old banking history.
mircea_popescu: decimation
this is entirely counterfactual nonsense
that never happened.
mircea_popescu: a crown in
the
traditional sense is a very primitive instrument, because it purports (necessarily, but ineffectually)
to hold ALL sovereignty. now
the poor bearer's stuck deciding how fires are
to be put out, how wives are
to be kept, etc.
decimation: well, morgan and his other monopoly friends
thought
they could 'endow'
their bailout wealth
to usg via
the federal reserve
mircea_popescu: oh. well, no. he wore
the banking crown, nobody disputed
that, and for good reason.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform he was one of
the
three, nothing is misidentified is it.
mircea_popescu: the cost for
the 20 measly
thousand
the dod scrounged
together (and who faced exactly
the fate of crassus' host) was > 1bn
mircea_popescu: to properly grok how rich
the
triumvir was : he could afford
to pay for ~18 million usians
to go fight for
tikrit.
decimation: and crassus was said
to have wealth equal
to
the
treasury
mircea_popescu: the j p morgan bailout was essentially a "everyone come
to my house!" and
then "you will do like so because i say so"
decimation: didn't Carnegie, Rockefeller, et. al. bail out us banks from
their personal accounts?
mircea_popescu: the buffett-rich,
the people who are not merely willing
to go on
the record stating "i am representative of richness, i couldn't exist outside of usg,
therefore usg is EVERYTHING", but actually believe it.
decimation: as you can imagine, only
the rich can have such a hobby
decimation: some rich 'collectors' in
the us obtain
the proper notes
to get fully automatic machine guns
mircea_popescu: tons of
things "legal if you have a license we aren't issuing because we're at liberty
to do
this."
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the price
thing is amusingly at work in all sorts of ATF stuff.
mircea_popescu: decimation i had made
that point, yes, but
the counterpositive is not necessarily
true.
decimation: and
the fed is worried about how inflation is
too low
decimation:
http://www.cnbc.com/id/102477304 < "When it comes
to price growth, however, New York
topped
the list for prime property worldwide, according
to Knight Frank. Prices jumped 18 percent in New York in 2014. Aspen, Colorado, ranked second, with prices up 16 percent."
☟︎ decimation: that, and finding a way
to mill bullets at home :)
decimation: asciilifeform: pounding a wedge between usg and its ability print bezzlars is
the proper route of resistance
assbot: Logged on 26-11-2014 00:46:13; asciilifeform: have
to understand, jet fighter is not really a complete machine. it is a
tentacle of
the larger industrial slave empire which produced and employed it.
decimation: particularly, as you have pointed out,
the ammo factory
decimation: asciilifeform: but I agree with your point. ultimately any resistance
to usg is going
to be economic
decimation: asciilifeform: it's not even clear
that having full auto ar-15's would be much of an advantage at all
☟︎ decimation: well, I'm
thinking of a more military scenario
decimation: mircea_popescu: didn't you make
the point about how
the guns we are allowed
to keep are of little
threat
to usg anyway?
decimation: asciilifeform:
the relatively silent firearm can be used
to ambush and retreat?
