pete_dushenski: though it's
tough
to know if
they're white when most faces are obscured and light levels not conducive
to determining skin
tone
mircea_popescu: 50k in debt, social sciences degree and a history of opining in
the press is
the qualification.

☟︎ BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> pete_dushenski no,
that's still
the chadians. show me one of
these fucktarded, social sciences major chick
twerking. << If I still used
the Facebook
thing
this might be possible.
mircea_popescu: preferably one
that doesn't look like a whale coming aground.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski no,
that's still
the chadians. show me one of
these fucktarded, social sciences major chick
twerking.
mircea_popescu: they're doing some pathetic recouping of old-and-senile buffett now, mostly predicated on denouncing as heresy his actually useful contributions,
two decades prior.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: at least chadians dance and shit. << usians
twerk
mircea_popescu: guy comprehends more economy
than
the entire profession of academic economist in
the history of
the united states.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: More
their imagined sense of
the french
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo even leaving
that scandal aside, consider
their
treatment of buffett.
BingoBoingo: The USian brahamin could have done great if
they would have let James starve when
the dumpsters ran out of food and instead elevated Peirce
mircea_popescu: stupid ass us "brahmins" can't even
take
their clothes off.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu:
The USian Brahmin emulate
the French, for some god awful reason.
mircea_popescu: and
this schmuck has
the unmitigated audacity
to belittle other shit from atop of all
that nonachievement ?!
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> no but im seriously offended.
the entire fucking pile of a century worth of chomskis and whatnot "brahmins" has produced exactly 0 cultural output. << I blame Husserl and Derrida
mircea_popescu: it contributed
to
the culture of
the world less
than fucking chad
mircea_popescu: it's not
that
the us doesn';t have a great brahmin novel. it has NOTHING.
mircea_popescu: no but im seriously offended.
the entire fucking pile of a century worth of chomskis and whatnot "brahmins" has produced exactly 0 cultural output.
BingoBoingo: Anyways, misdemeanor disordely case appears
to have been continued. Have
to get a hold of
the lawyer
to find out in which of
the
two ways,
the beneficial way ot
the optimally beneficial way
this went.
mircea_popescu: i always
thought
the distinction is
the job of
the readership.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: You write in a way
that
the elements of
the emotional rants and reasoned arguments have clear seperations discernable
to readers
pete_dushenski: that convinced me
they were
too fragile and i ended up with a 350z for a few years
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> dignork functionally,
this is idiocy (denying
the fruits of reason lest
they interfere with
the desires of emotion) << Amazing how
the Yarvins don't separate
their reasoned arguments from
their emotional rants
mircea_popescu: most don't get
to serve as cultural reference points. for
this reason.
BingoBoingo: <pete_dushenski>
twas available on all gm vehicles and even some volkswagens, such as
the phaeton << In undergrad our College's president had a phaeton as his College supplied vehicle.
mircea_popescu: dignork functionally,
this is idiocy (denying
the fruits of reason lest
they interfere with
the desires of emotion)
dignork: it also can be a mental barrier, for exmaple if he
tries
to maintain humanism, while rejecting democracy
pete_dushenski: twas available on all gm vehicles and even some volkswagens, such as
the phaeton
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu:<asciilifeform> (what's it about in reality? real-time
tracking of all meat inventory. and, with a little more magic - your car is own gasenwagen when
time comes.) <<
they already had a pilot for
this. amusingly, it was sold as an expensive ad on for luxury brands. northstar or something. << northstar was
the name of a fairly awful gm v8, onstar was
their
tracking device
mircea_popescu: this however is not supported by what we're discussing. when you see someone who displays
the mental gymnastics required
to comprehend
the ffi, and
then fails
to resolve a problem which requires merely differential calculus
dignork: alternative: I assume
that he is +6, because
that's how smart he supposed
to be
to fool me...
dignork: malicious vs. idiotic problem is an intersting one: when I see somebody smarter
than myself, by say +3 points, i can assume
that he didn't find a solution because it required +4
mircea_popescu: dignork i don't consider idiocy
to be any more all-encompassing
than genius. one can be a chemistry genius and die of accidental exposure. one can similarly be a complete idiot in say politics and yet an accomplished farmer.
BingoBoingo: One can not build a banana republic by stacking deck chairs on
the
titanic.
mircea_popescu: dignork de facto, in
the "malicious or idiotic" dilemma you were proposing
the latter.
BingoBoingo: I've never really liked his argumentative style as he
tries
to put forth
the grand societal argment relying on mush
that seem reminiscent of Urbit "jets"
dignork: mircea_popescu: I never said he is stupid, but
the proposed model is not
thought
through.
mircea_popescu: be
that as it may, he's a reasonably useful
tool, and in a utilitarian world his idiocy does not define him as his utility does.
mircea_popescu: so
to come round circle, i guess he could be just incredibly fucking stupid, as dignork proposes. perhaps.
BingoBoingo: Or
that H and D are specifically "Blue" as
though he has never been
to
this "Middle America"
mircea_popescu: but
that aside,
the relative success of b-a as compared
to every other dickless-shithead run channel on freenode and beyond speaks directly
to
the superior cultural achievements and ability of
the structured society.
mircea_popescu: as far as
that lasts, if it even survived past
the brahmin bloomberg.
mircea_popescu: fuck off,
the only reason you can even have a decent meal in new york is
the fucking mob.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo what i most
took exception with was
the inane proposition
that
the mob (w/.e he calls it, d something) had "no cultural insitutions"
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I am astounded by
that post,
the structure and foundation of his argument, and his conclusions. Applying Subcontinental
templates onto Us society with
the readiness a programmer might call some javascript data structures
to be used in python
diametric: i always love coming home
to digikey boxes at my doorstep.
dignork: in any case,
through his writings I was searching for a better model, but he forgot
to provide one, so it was fun
to read, but nothing more
dignork: He claims
that democracy is self-stabilizing mud, and hence almost uncrashable
mircea_popescu: if
this were
the
true case he wouldn't have been out
there
trying
to make a bitcoin-killer-ap six weeks after it became obvious
to him bitcoin is
the killer ap.
dignork: more
that he doesn't see how it can be crashed, so he stays passive
mircea_popescu: once
that's on
the
table,
the difference between yarvin and dutta is purely cosmetic.
mircea_popescu: he is consistent in
the sense
that he doesn't want
the current one
to crash.
mircea_popescu: which is
the spirit behind
that clause, and generally speaking
the spirit behind everything
that'll ever work.
mircea_popescu: this because back at reality ranch,
the only way
to win
the game is
to constantly attack all
the way
to
the king.
there's no prizes for having lost
the game but "successfully sieged a rook".
mircea_popescu: the insurgency is not derping with stupid books,
the insurgency is
the mob, amassing power at
the bottom of
the market fluxes in
the utopian world.
mircea_popescu: the whole
thing works, intentionally or no, as a fine work of mr o'brien. only a fucking imbecile would imagine
that
THAT is
the book of
the insurgency.
mircea_popescu: "This should be reason enough for anyone
to avoid
taking up cudgels on behalf of either."
☟︎ assbot: Unqualified Reservations:
The BDH-OV conflict
mircea_popescu: ie, he admits some "outrageous" points, which gives him some credence in
the eyes of
the more naive intelligent folk, youngestrs mostly. he
then
turns around and uses
this capital
to consolidate
the very monster he pretends
to position himself against
mircea_popescu: that reminds me BingoBoingo : i was gonna say i don't like curtis yarvin / mencius moldbug for
the following very specific reason - he sounds exactly like a propaganda job for smart people.
BingoBoingo: Best preambulatory clause: "WHEREAS F.DERP issues synthetic equivalents of worthless fiat businesses fraudulently purporting involvement in Bitcoin and exposure
to
the Bitcoin economy with
the irresponsible support of
the US propaganda machine as well as
the allegedly private investment arm of
the US Fed, in order
to allow unfettered price discovery for
the underlyings in
the actual Bitcoin stock market ; "
mircea_popescu: On Friday,
the peso recovered a smidgen, and
the reported “blue dollar” rate dipped below 14 ARS/USD, after
the central bank had reportedly blown $10 million of its foreign exchange reserves
to prop it up. <<
to put
this in perspective :
the argentine natl bank foreign reserves went up 2.5 bn in
the interval since i wrote im supporting
them and
the reporting cutoff for q2. (ie, early august)
mircea_popescu: "“Expect
the government
to
take action
to bring
this rate down – fast,” wrote Bianca Fernet, stilettos-on-the-ground American economist in Buenos Aires and contributor
to Wolf Street.
T"
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo sure gives new meaning
to calling someone an asshole.
BingoBoingo: I imagine MP reading
these logs off of a projection onto a girl's back as she's bent over
ben_vulpes: now i have
this image of mp sitting watching
trilema logs scroll by on slow days in #b-a
WoT-Hater: just a good citizen clicking a link on

mircea_popescu: if you look at it,
typical she-brained dc staffer mental processes.
mircea_popescu: this is how much
teh usg dimwit in charge of
this project comprehends of
these matters. fuckwit actually imagined
that "the community" is stupid enough and
the stupid enough part relevant enough
to go for shit like
this because... it says "the community" in it.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo not likely, given
the very low index of
the comment in question
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> so - how long does conformal corp. have before one should conclude
they failed
the 'test' (approved mircea_popescu's comment) ? << Another possibility may be retarded/ovezealous/otherwise poisoned spam filtering.
