mircea_popescu: idiots will want for "
nothing bad to
happen" and will trade "
nothing to

happen.
mircea_popescu: and no, it requires no skill, it requires a specific representation to be believably made. that "

happen". i can't make that, nor do i wish to (these two are related).
mircea_popescu: the attractor is the futility. the plain and unescapable certainty that if they succeed
NOTHING WILL
HAPPEN. the point about "yes white racism exists - it's white people hating themselves" isn't just some superficial flurry of rhetoric. it informs the deepest recesses of subconscious thought and minute behaviour, "if
nothing happens then
nothing bad can
happen" is not just why sane kid chooses for himself "a goivernment job"
☟︎ mircea_popescu: there exists this sort of (conventionally denoted "female" mind) for whom everything-depends-on-everything-else-

☟︎ mircea_popescu: so i guess it's not merely "don't help coinbase, they'll fuck you up" as yesterday, but moreover, "don't help coinbase - they'll fuck you up and then display the unmitigated gall of pretending that it didn't
happen, or if it did it shouldn't matter or if it does it has
nothing to do wit hthem". herp.
mircea_popescu: this "
nothing can ever
happen" thing that everyone wants to bake in the axioms is exactly the castration limonov discusses.
mircea_popescu: the point is "hey, listen to your guy squeal. you gonna do something ? hm ? next week ? next month ? your guy ? isn't this sad ? you gonna do anything ? can't do anything ? you suck this bad ? what will

mircea_popescu: The media explains how things relate to him, and as long as he understands what's going on, he feels empowered. He is given an ideology without even knowing it. Now he doesn't actually have to do anything, indeed, it's way the hell better if he does
nothing. All that's required is support, and through his support not only will "the right things"
happen but he'll share in the credit.
mircea_popescu: "Your statement that the new fork won't succeed is

nothing stopping the CBC from making a more fulsome disclosure,” he said. “They should be out there making their pitch about what a great organization they are, what their values are, what their processes are, what they’re going to do to ensure this doesn’t
happen again, what proactive steps they’ve taken, their support for women in the workplace.”
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski

mircea_popescu: sm, and War Crimes Service – of the Republic of Croatia on charges of possession of, and/or having planted, explosives – so even if he reported me for e.g. nuclear terrorism,
nothing new would
happen. It would be interesting if he could get Antiteroristička jedinica "Lučko" – the "Lučko" Anti-Terrorist Unit – to attack my position in full combat gear to see if I would get startled as I've not yet had an enco
