mircea_popescu: so basically
the old folks are
too cool for us

their shoes ?
mircea_popescu: i don;'t
think

think
they fought for
that either.
mircea_popescu: the fate of
the
triumvirate was
that pompey despised caesar.

there's currently orders of magnitude more slaves looking for masters
than masters willing

the crowd.

too strong a world, as insanity is a good bedfellow

the powerful don't actively seek it. it seeks
them.
mircea_popescu: these
three are just
there cause
they;'re
the least obnoxious of a sea of similar bitches in heat.
mircea_popescu: no, he's not. most of his
time is spent
trtying
to keep such women at bay.
mircea_popescu: i
think

this is a cool squarejaw, he's forcing
these women
to do such
things.
mircea_popescu: you misunderstand
the relationship between
the powerful and power.
mircea_popescu: or moreover
this is what
the state is, much like a supermodel is her

tinted glasses douches in
the us have infinite budgets atm.
they are
THE state.

to do with protecting anything of yours.
mircea_popescu: the only practical way
to educate
the human being is
through violence.
mircea_popescu: and
the only places not worth living into are
those devoid of inequality.
mircea_popescu: whereas
the only
true measure of development is inequality,
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it is at
the very least red because its only practical use is
to
try and give credence
to
this nonsense
theory whereby inequality breeds stagnation
through "waste".
