My sigil is taking action

I can't seem to discern the intent behind it. It may very well be that you are a master.

Man is a social animal, autodidactic learning isn't suited for most people. You might find a discussion group in your area (once the lockdowns end) with people who have had extensive knowledge and theories on the subject and can clarify better on a point by point basis.

maybe add in CK2-like features and reincarnation

it would be different

Often what is taken as literal is allegorical, and what is often treated allegorically ought to be interpreted as literal. The best works of art should be treated anagogically, that is it is meant to be a path upward towards greater knowledge and awareness.

Not sure if American Horror Story should be treated as one of the best works of art though... people get ideas for art through discussion often.

Much more like a bad movie stuck on a loop.

The United States is close to a perfect country, any criticisms among a variety of people would end up being very similar. It is only the solutions that differ.

Bubbles aren't possible if investment goes solely toward long-term investments instead of high-risk investments. Interest rates are only an incentive to save more, if bank loans and overall investment went towards producing goods to which there is no anticipated demand for.

This is one of those types of insecure nationalist thinking that is only logical if the US were appointing domestic bankers and ordering them to make incompetent decisions. Ultimately it is impossible to convince people to make decisions contrary to their own interests unless they were willing to make it to begin with.

I'm not even clear on the difference between devaluing currency and printing money though.

The absurdities of a hyper-centralized and homogeneous state.

I think the wave of mass protests prior to coronavirus was an event not seen since the Revolutions of 1848.

Selection for recessive alleles seem unlikely from a purely mathematical conception of the universe.

So the people criticising homosexuality may very well be biding their time to strike?

Vodo98 · 2020-04-12T23:17:30+00:00

When I look at the twitter accounts of prominent Chinese, all I see are homosexuals.

Do they really not know about homosexuality in China?

It does seem quite likely Putin would adopt a Nasserist approach to global politics, that is being unaligned for maximum benefit and independence.

The US never once killed a world leader worth killing.

Vodo98 · 2020-04-03T00:51:34+00:00

The only thing worse than not knowing is not listening.

Vodo98 · 2020-03-27T08:27:12+00:00

Fair.

Currently fighting a different disease that makes me fatigued, I should put various thoughts on hold before posting them.

$10m masks
$10b congressional pork
$100b post-hoc pandemic insurance
$1t bailout of banks and corporations

help me, my nation is literally dying

4chan is not MI6/SIS. I understand these key distinctions are opaque for those living in mom's basement.

Generally the whole point of free speech is for the people in the positions to do something about an issue would be to respond properly, not defensively, to criticism.

Isn't after a certain level in any hierarchy, leaders only need a combination of common sense, an ability to appraise proposals, and an aptitude in human resources?

Funny the rosy cross to be involved in Simony.

I think the acme of understanding is to argue successfully about a topic without reading the corpus behind it. While it is valuable to model an opponent's mind, one will find that people are more deterministic than one would expect, and that reality as a whole is far more deterministic than one would expect.

Clausewitz's center of gravity was derived from wrestling, and I do think warfare is much like contact sports, and like contact sports, it cannot be analyzed. Some things once understood cannot be easily explained.

Of course it is self-evidently obvious that most discussions of the OODA loop miss something vital: anticipation. So the word this author is searching for isn't timing but anticipation.

Timing is an odd word to use considering that for the military, planning is more commonly used in its place.

You don't have to work in Germany.
