Yup.. what we have now is essentially an amalgamation of mini socialist states (mega-corps) under one monolithic federal state. In classic fashion, the gov't has failed it's *one* job in a quasi-capitalist society, which is ensuring competition exists and killing monopolies/duopolies. Remember when Ma Bell was broken up?

Remember when they actually used to break up monopolies? Ma Bell remembers..

It's painfully obvious that Russell Brand is getting the Julian Assange treatment. Just like Assange, Brand was safe for years, until his actions (or in this case, words) started affecting The Party.
And then, voila, magic rape allegations, and instantaneous coordination between media and state to squelch the issue.

This is something I've noticed about a lot of the "smart" people, like in tech, where I work.
Most of them are book smart and highly specialized in one area of expertise. But "book" is where their smarts end. The rest of their existence is one big exercise in the Appeal to Authority logical fallacy.
I had the advantage of growing up in some interesting/sketchy circumstances which required "street" smarts. Like for example, knowing when you're in danger, or when you're being swindled, taken advantage of, or manipulated... and this sense is totally missing from most of the people I work with. It's so surreal.

That realization spawned a whole movement that led to massive scientific and cultural progress based on the rejection of irrationality and taming of emotions.. The Enlightment.
We now have another movement, based on emotion and rejection of logic/truth, actively dismantling this paradigm: Post-modernism, and by extension its successors, (critical) 'x' theory/studies.

This is the concept of "collective guilt" and is why a lot of people in North Korea are persecuted because their ancestors had the audacity to own property.
It's also currently being employed in the US but along racial lines, a good example is the Biden admin denying covid relief and treatment to whites in favour of POC/women (even though covid killed WAY more men).
One group gets targeted for collective sin while ignoring those of every other group, even though the individuals had nothing to do with any of it, regardless of which group they belong to.
There is literally *zero* legitimate reason to base any policy on race or gender, ever. Any things they claim to want to "right" can be done by prioritizing by economic class. But that's not the point nor intent.

Know what really sucks? Having a super low sex drive.
It's a lot harder than I reckon most people realize.
I've been in a lot of relationships, and they all fail eventually because of this. Typically things will start out great, I'll be sexually active for like the first month, then lose all interest in it. We still do all the cutesy things like going out, hitting up fesitvals, etc... but eventually the girl will start to think I'm not attracted to her because I never initiate (can't really blame her), and shit spirals from there.
Maybe it's because I always go for the conventionally attractive ones who end up having a high sex drive. I guess that would make sense? If someone's sexually active, they're likely going to put a lot more effort into their appearance to be sexually attractive to potential partners. Who knows..
Anyway I started checking compatibility with my matches early on before anything got serious, and watched my dating pool evaporate. I'm definitely the outlier here.

I wouldn't count on it unfortunately.
I mean, it's possible, and I have seen it happen to some prominent figures and media personalities (with consequences mind you).
On a large scale though, they operate on a collective consciousness, essentially a living example of the "appeal to authority" fallacy, which is also why they hate the NPC meme so much, it hits too close to home.
As long as the media and centralized places like Wikipedia tell them one thing and their comrades also subscribe to it, no amount of evidence or even outright proof will ever sway them.
You could set their house on fire in front of them, and if Wikipedia told them it was a right wing conspiracy theory... well, they would burn to death.

Anybody here interested in algo trading? I think it's fun, and it helps me improve my coding skills.
I spent like 2 years building a backtesting framework/trading bot and developing algorithms. But I made the rookie mistake of biasing it toward one data set. On paper it looked great, in practice it did make some great trades but overall ended up losing more than it made after a couple bad ones.
I'd love to find someone to work with on a project like this.

Crappy app (crapple?) I made over the weekend that lets me put in orders as a % of my holdings, without letting the order actually sit (and be visible) on the exchange.
I keep my non-hodl BTC on an exchange long enough to make a trade, but ideally I'd like to cut out the exchange entirely. I can't think of how to do that without using a stablecoin, or trading into some other crypto asset.. Would stablecoin be the best option? Fees can be outrageous sometimes though.
Before the puritans come @ me for using an exchange or not being a pure holder.... This is the means I use to stack my sats.

True, it's very easy to look at what they did and cast condemnations. I've thought about this quite a lot, and when I was younger I couldn't even fathom attempting to justify it. I always wondered why they didn't just drop it off the coast or something to showcase what they could do.
Think about this though... it took *two* direct atomic bombings to get the emperor to surrender.
Not one. Two.
That means they saw the absolute devastation and annihilation of the first bomb, and said "nah, we're not phased, we're staying the course". There is no reasoning with that level of devotion.
What would be the next step then? An invasion, more war, more "conventional" bombings and dead civilians. WWII already killed tens of milllions, and it could have easily been much higher.
Not saying if I were in control I would have done the same thing with certainty, but I at least understand the reasoning now.
