mircea_popescu: thickasthieves> just make
the b-a blogroll into a magazine ans we can appoint an editor for choosing which stories are big on

the idea
though
assbot: Logged on 07-07-2014 10:46:38; mircea_popescu: well...
the gulag wasn't avoidable, not practically.
decimation: you wrote about how
those who went
to
the gulag were volunteers (or volunteered) by people who wanted
to be somebodies

them, somewhere. i dun recall
this discussion
tho.
TheNewDeal: dimsler, are marx and freud considered enlightenment
thinkers
to you?
decimation: mircea made some good points on
this subject but I
think
the logs were lost
decimation: in pratice, anyone who was 'volunteered'
to go
to
the gulag by someone who wanted
to 'prove' how powerful
they were

term means
to pose a
threat
to
the delusions of sovereignity of one less powerful.
Dimsler: the
term means
to sabotage a political insititue
decimation: "wrecker", but hearkening back
to RSFSR penal codes

those who "recklessly" disclose intelligence information.

to start sucking cock or
try a
totalitarian state play.

to either renig or go broke, it's
that simple
mircea_popescu: and
there's no court in
the world
that can absolve it
through a bankruptcy. whether
they
try
to run one or not. kinda
the fundamental reason it ended.
decimation: yes,
the evidence for
that statement is quite strong
mircea_popescu: decimation all
that really matters is
that
the us has underwritten liabilities
that exceed its ability
to pay.

to say
that usg has a present liability of at least all assets in
the entire world, possibly more

think. just don't
try and run "teams" you'll be fine.
BingoBoingo: cazalla: I'd be up for some story authoring, contributing
to
the cause.
The
too many chefs problem isn't about having
too many people so much as a shitty heirarchy.

cazalla: i would want
to run something like
that by myself at first and bring people in later,
too many chefs and all
that

to add salt
to
the cuts you can do a weekly roundup and mock
their unpublishable shit.
