phf: by the time i started figuring out the socioeconomic part of the question it was a year too late (they started tightening the screws some time before putin came to power, which was not so much the beginning but the announcement of the done deal. i remember '99 the situation of a lot of people changed drastically.) ☟︎

mircea_popescu: nothing else has any bearing on it. if the computer you own happens to be a laptop and it happens to be the third week thieves broke into your car and stole your laptop, this makes absolutely no difference re "own computer--clean and install". you might park your car some other place, but you won't change what's done to owned computer.

mircea_popescu: those were the best times.

asciilifeform: dunno that it ever really 'ends' , some background trickle of folx needin' affixin' to inside of new cement, get so affixed, in all times, neh
asciilifeform: ( lulzily i saw 'youtube' not long ago and got the 'recommended' film 'how to try to float with cement boots' ... )
mircea_popescu: it ends, in the sense that you either have the critical mass of organised youth raping and pillaging, or you do not. and the drag force of whether young cunts (and no, boys aren't anything but young cunts ftr) do perceive they're alive and do follow sense ; or imagine themselves dead and hang out with the stupid old women makes a difference irl.
mircea_popescu: it's not "most eager whores". it's whether 15 yo is "i will burn down the fucking house while you sleep rather than not follow these guys".
mircea_popescu: eg it's quite plainly to see argentina will go straight to shit : 16yo there is following her mom around, rather than being ashamed of being seen with her.
mircea_popescu: ro chicks were, pointedly, ashamed of being seen, ever, with their mothers.
asciilifeform: 'end of ru 90s' is sometimes presented as 'low hanging loot ran out'. tru or not ?
mircea_popescu: not.
mircea_popescu: end of ru 90s was strictly desertion into perelman fantasyworld by the foot soldier. much like end of europe 1700s was -- desertion into socialist fantasyworld by foot soldier.
asciilifeform: well-fed pirates dun desert.
mircea_popescu: and the incontrovertible truth of the matter is that you can ALWAYS desert into fantasyworld. "marry jesus" rather than the extant boys.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform from experience, feeding has nothing to do. it's just a function of vanity and nothing else.
mircea_popescu: people who overperceive themselves always desert no matter how fed ; and people who don't overperceive themselves never do, also no matter how fed.
asciilifeform: yeah but why be a pirate and presumably a good one and then suddenly marryjesus.
mircea_popescu: there is no accounting for stupid.
mircea_popescu: why be a professor and actually a good one and then suddenly marry a cab ?
asciilifeform: failed shot at the brass ring neh
asciilifeform: nobody sets out to cab
mircea_popescu: because nothing can beat the sugar of self delusion in those so inhabituated ; much like there's no dating in the future of Masturbation S Elliot.

mircea_popescu: generally, the cab's "rolled eyes" is almost never in the form of "great american novel". he'll disapprove loudly of the whores, for instance, even as he depends on them for his only sexual outlet.

trinque: which amounts to a reference to USG as a thing with singular agency.
mircea_popescu: ftr, i dun beleive in any kind of new york hasidim superiority. for one thing i fear the jews are congenitally retarded. for the other, the time for that item came and went in the 30s.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: they have ~bulletproof 'omerta' tho . gotta be worth something
mircea_popescu: and very slutty teenagers, too. also worth something.
asciilifeform: i dun particularly like the hassidim aesthetically, which is neither here nor there, but respect the omerta.
asciilifeform: and the willingness to cut the inca out of the loop.
mircea_popescu: large part of it is cultural. imagine, alf captured by africans. "tell us the trilema secrets!!1"
mircea_popescu: "bitch... even if i wanted to..."
asciilifeform: can easily picture, having as it happens already been 'captured by africans'
asciilifeform: 'show us how to write without bugs..'

mircea_popescu: which is the point here. divinity -- corupts.
mircea_popescu: anything else -- is corrupted.
mircea_popescu: which is how the xtian god ended up married with picket fences and an obnoxious wife. it got corrupted.
asciilifeform: 'regression to mean'
mircea_popescu: if you will. happens everywhere though. divine boy will make the girl let all her articles of clothing go down the river one by one, and spend the rest of the weekend naked among the trees. base boy will be struck with the girl's beauty, marry her and raise her children.
mircea_popescu: divinity -- corrupts. everything else, is corrupted.
asciilifeform: and i pictured the halflingfaggotgodonastick got 'married with fishwife' when fishwives started praying to him
asciilifeform: how else could it work
mircea_popescu: when fishwives corrupted teh priesthood.
mircea_popescu: see, that;s the item there. not when they started praying ; but when the priests started fearing their not praying any longer.
asciilifeform: fwiw classic hassids did not have this problem, didnt permit females within a cannon's shot of temple or talmudery
mircea_popescu: the hassids permitted. it's complicated, but, in the context of judaism (which is STRICTLY an eastern european affair, just as "united states" will not be a thing of hawaii even long after the continent is no longer us and the island still clings to history), hasidism was a sort of 1800s 1960s. flower power all the way.
mircea_popescu: "love of god as dancing" and what have you.
mircea_popescu: "joy of faith"
asciilifeform: it is mistake to picture it as 'living fossil' of 1700s j000z ?
mircea_popescu: i would say it is. it was a genuine reform movement, and it was shockingly liberal for the early 1800s born.
asciilifeform: hm.
mircea_popescu: and it permitted women in the first and fundamental sense of, allowing they are human. not as rabbis, and not usually educated in the formal yeshiva sense. but it did teach them to write and read, which was entirely novel.
mircea_popescu: the whole concept was to make the wife more of a domestic partner and less of a domestic animal, with better results wrt the control of the young hussies.
mircea_popescu: if you've seen cabaret with liza minelli, i would propose that the rich jewish chick there depicted is a very correct rendition of the hasid maiden.
asciilifeform: hm..!
mircea_popescu: very german, yes, but still.
asciilifeform: makessens
mircea_popescu: now, manwhile goym went to shit making hasids look ultraorthodfox whatever. but not what they were back when they actually carried meaning rather than mere tradiiton.
asciilifeform: and before germans 'cut off the flower, leaving the stem' (tm)(r)(trilema)
mircea_popescu: the germans -- also congenitally retarded -- managed to go to war with all their natural allies in fucking order. the sight, it boggles the mind.
mircea_popescu: there was no better demographic to support nazism than the jews, is the truth of 1935.

phf: amusingly enough all the mil crowd that was quietly sitting out the 90s are the ones that were making real bank on the sly, and that's the people i should've been reaching out to (considering...)
phf: but the 90s was such a shoulda-coulda-woulda decade, looking at it in retrospect can only reveal your own limitations. so i can understand mp's sentiment

phf: hat sort of thing.
phf: but then i was at a potomac jew book club where they were discussing generation p (or one of the earlier novels anyway), and they couldn't get past THE HORROR OF THE 90s, literally entire conversations were about omg so much crime. all these people emigrated right after the collapse, where's for me the staple of 90s (oh there's a dead body on the corner, because petya shnur couldn't share the territory with vasya kulak, shrug) were the norm
trinque: can say that "ah I read some alan watts and huxley, my getting high has a point" *was* that kind of signaling in my younger stoner circles, can see how mp would get there.
phf: so reading pelevin back then might've had a very different effect from reading him now. chapayev and pustota then blew my mind because i read it when it came out and it was very present time, but his 2000s stuff i don't get at all (because i read it in u.s. perhaps), and some things didn't age that well.
