    ~~~ Claiming victory while sitting in Qatar, Hamas chief says ‘we destroyed project of coexistence with Israel’ Humans hate solving problems; they like perpetual conflict instead, because that way everyone has a job fighting the war that never ends. Trump’s peace deal threatened to yeet a lot of people out of jobs and wars by […]

  • Democracy Loves Drama

    Amerika.org - May 21st 2021 8:02am EDT

    People ask why conservatives do so poorly in democracy, but to find their answer they need not look far, since democracy is based on the idea of equal reason, which is required for the insane belief that people in groups make better decisions than your best thinkers. Of course, for a long time, society has […]

  • Why Our Elites are Incompetent

    Amerika.org - May 20th 2021 8:02am EDT

    Societies die from something called The Civilization Disease, which occurs when humans decide that we are so smart that we do not need nature; instead, we simply tell people exactly what to do according to “science” and “ideology” and they do what we want without understanding it. Humans make this mistake time and again and […]

  • Blaming Politicians is Pointless Scapegoating

    Amerika.org - May 19th 2021 8:02am EDT

    If you want to be popular, accept everyone and blame something else for their troubles, then tell them that by defeating this something else, you can have Utopia. It’s the same old human scam. It works every time. You see it at every level of human affairs, from your friend-group at the pub to which […]

  • Control Versus Darwinism

    Amerika.org - May 18th 2021 8:02am EDT

    On this site you will find roughly these things: Conservatism: realism plus quality, or a transcendental appreciation of the excellent in life. Nihilism: a rejection of inherent, universal, and absolute values, morals, and communications. There is only the real, and our thoughts about it. Anarcho-Monarchism: “control” is the theory of direct manipulation of effect as […]

  • How The Far-Right Can Deal With Being Mainstreamed

    Amerika.org - May 17th 2021 8:02am EDT

    The far-Right spent sixty years after WW2 as an underground entity, basically rejected by conservatives high on the WW2 victory and Leftists who feared any inegalitarian sentiment. Now the far-Right has become obsolete because mainstream conservatives have adopted its ideas. Although Donald Trump paved the way by making immigration the major issue of his campaign, […]

    ~~~ A child for a tarpaulin: Aid workers’ price list as they ‘exchange food and shelter for sex’ We thought that we could do better than the kings. Instead it turns out that bureaucracy attracts sociopaths, since sociopaths are drawn to power which does not require much of them. Solving insoluble perpetual problems gives them […]

  • Why Capitalists Love Communism

    Amerika.org - May 14th 2021 8:02am EDT

    Conservatives find themselves wondering why American companies seem to enthusiastically support far-Left policies, since we all know that these will lead to Communism. In theory, capitalists — those who profit from the voluntary exchange of goods and services for money — would oppose Communism since it would end their earnings. The internationalist nature of some […]

  • Why The Left Went Progressive In the 2000s

    Amerika.org - May 14th 2021 8:02am EDT

    Few can think in terms of demographics because their minds have been blinded by egalitarian dogma. In equality-think, people are fungible; in realist-think, individuals are different and differing abilities produce differing outcomes. Prior to the 1990s, most college students came from the upper half of the middle class if not the upper middle class. They […]

  • Lotism

    Amerika.org - May 13th 2021 8:02am EDT

    If I wanted to design an idealized hybrid between capitalism, socialism, fascism, and democracy, it might take this form. All citizens would be shareholders in their society and entitled to a certain share of its wealth. This would consist of the wealth not necessary to run the business, much as stocks are today. Society would […]

  • Diversity Explodes in Israel

    Amerika.org - May 12th 2021 10:06am EDT

    It seems that the middle east has yet again detonated. Ignoring the rules of a tacit cease-fire which has kept a relative peace for some time, Hamas fired a few hundred missiles of various sizes into Israel. Their game, like their demographic game, is to make use of cost differentials. Israel has the Iron Dome […]

  • Big Ish

    Amerika.org - May 12th 2021 8:02am EDT

    The BBC asked for my opinion on a survey, so I gave it to them on the question of how they could improve their news coverage: It’s time to go off-narrative and admit that we are in Late Stage Civilization, urbanization/overpopulation is causing ecocide, and equality has created low-quality soft totalitarian rule. These are the […]

This way, you can easily link to and repost bits of dubious wisdom such as the following: Some humans may be […]

  • Why Conservatives Made Themselves Slaves to Racial Equality

    Amerika.org - May 11th 2021 8:21am EDT

    My letter to the Texas GOP: What is wrong with you? You are encouraging miscegenation and cultural erasure: https://twitter.com/TexasGOP/status/1390675784201801728 The Left is never going to accept you, no matter how hard you signal. Conservatives are not egalitarians, so egalitarians are going to use you and lose you. We, the normal people out here, do not […]

  • Diversity Does Not Work (#6)

    Amerika.org - May 11th 2021 8:02am EDT

    Diversity has many problems. We identify the big one here, which is that it erases organic culture and replaces it with “tolerance,” which like socialism incentivizes bad behavior while punishing good. In addition, the problem that Robert Putnam noted — a lack of social trust, since rewarded behaviors (thymos) are not recognized — makes diverse […]

  • Total Nihilism from an Unusual Source

    Amerika.org - May 11th 2021 8:02am EDT

    From a video on smoking coin-cut tobacco: There is no right or wrong in this, but there is one method that works better and that is the one I will show you. This explains the method of nihilism: as extreme realists, we recognize that there is no absolute and universal method of behavior. Some methods […]

  • Being “Christian Libertarians” Will Not Save Us

    Amerika.org - May 10th 2021 8:02am EDT

    Lately on the Right many have shown an urge to unite behind Christianity instead of Western Civilization. The weakness of this is that you can have one or the other, but it hints at something that we need, although Christianity cannot provide it. Most people go with inertia. To them, political correctness is a recent […]

    ~~~ Atlanta police officer fired after fatally shooting Rayshard Brooks has been reinstated Another false martyr, another police life destroyed, except that the pushback seems to be strengthening. Americans are tired of losing their country to criminals. Even more, they realize that diversity and equality are Communism. We want to escape before this undertow drags […]

    From the annals of diversity history: Between 1877 and 1879, 20 Irishmen known as the Molly Maguires, a labor movement working and organizing in the Pennsylvania coal fields, were executed. [T]he Molly Maguires… were mostly Irish emigrants, many having fled the Famine and who belonged to secret societies in Ireland opposed to British rule. The […]

  • Remembering Cinco de Mayo

    Amerika.org - May 6th 2021 5:17pm EDT

    Back in the day, Cinco de Mayo was an exotic holiday where we celebrated something that sounded good from Mexico, just like we celebrate foreign holidays like St. Patrick’s Day and Christmas. After the 1990s, diversity came rushing at us, and so now it feels less like a holiday we can celebrate, since our society […]

  • Republicans Get Ready to Make ACB / MLK Mistake with Caitlyn Jenner

    Image from Charles Brooks at The Birmingham News in 1967. Apparently, Caitlyn (née Bruce) Jenner began a candidacy in California, to the great cheers of the assembled Republicans. Let us see them as they are: they are System people, or those who “got ahead” by figuring out how to manipulate the bureaucracy and, most importantly, […]

  • What Does the One Ring Represent?

    Amerika.org - May 6th 2021 8:02am EDT

    Literature moved from warning about coming modernity, to bemoaning it, toward a fusion with science fiction where writers began visualizing a world outside of modernity. Leading this charge were the Inklings, including J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis. In Tolkien, much of the analysis of modernity concerns itself with a ring of power, which like technology, […]

  • Return of Caste

    Amerika.org - May 5th 2021 8:02am EDT

    For several decades, I have argued for the need for social hierarchy, namely the type of caste systems that Europe kept alive up through WW2. Murkans, having misled themselves into thinking that they fought a revolution for “equality,” have rejected such things. However, looking at the bell curve, it makes sense to have caste systems, […]

  • Rules-By-Software, or Why Not to Trust the Manipulative Geeks

    Amerika.org - May 4th 2021 8:02am EDT

    Crowds create control by demanding that all defer to the will of the group so that individuals can be uninterrupted by standards, qualitative assessments, and goals; in turn, this makes everyone into a politician and an actor, manipulating each other in order to have some power. It turns out that equality, by reducing us all […]
