The Coming American Dictatorship, Part I

Wilder, Wealthy, and Wise:
“Well, Captain, the Klingons called you a tin-plated overbearing, swaggering dictator with delusions of godhood.” – Star Trek

“Comrade Stalin, a fortune-teller came to see you!” “Execute him. If he was any good, he would have known not to come.”

Most people like to be told what to do. They want to be led. That makes sense, given the history of humanity. We work best when we work together, and the worst group is a group of a dozen people who each think they’re the leader. Because of this, hierarchy is a built-in feature to our operating system. Get a group of lumberjacks together, and one of them will want to be named the branch manager.

The downside of this “working together” is that the vast mass of people are willing to behave like lemmings and all jump off the cliff, as long as that’s what everyone else in the group is doing. Heck, lemmings would even jump off a dock, if they felt pier pressure. For me, the last few years has been the biggest revelation in human behavior and how easily people (especially NPCs) can be reprogrammed.

The three biggest reprogramming efforts in the last few years have been Trump, COVID, and Ukraine. I’ll skip Trump for the moment, and jump into COVID. Was the ‘Rona a real disease? Certainly. The reaction to it was overblown at every level. The average age of people who died from Corona-chan was (through my rough calculations) 73 in the United States. more here

  1. I. Don’t. Care.

    If you, yes you, laddy! Are drawing a blade and beheading “them”, I’ll keep the wailing wymyn (of all genders) from swarming you. Like roaches. Locusts? Whatever. Maybe you’ll return the “favor”. Don’t care. Not required.

    If you’re simpering at the wymyn (of all genders) how feelz hyrt you are… I. Don’t. Care. Don’t care if they swarm and eat you. Don’t care if they pay an “expert” to dismember you. Don’t care if… you know what?… Just. Don’t. Care.

    > If you don’t care so much, why the fuck do you bother tappy tapping so much?

    Because the stupid, like the poor, will always be with us.

  3. If you don’t have a pile of ammo, weapons & know how to shoot, some PMs stashed away and 6 months of food/water RIGHT NOW, tell me why? I have all that and a crappy 2/3 acre in a crappy climate for growing and still have about 150 sq ft of raised beds, chickens, 2 freezers full of meat and am building a rabbitry.

    The days of wine & roses are drawing to a close. A few years ago in Mexico, people woke up to the banks closed and 3(?) days later when they reopened WALL-LA, the value of their savings had been reduced by 50%.

    If you think that our government won’t resort to actions like that(don’t worry, the Bushes, Obamas, Clintons, Kerrys, McConnells, Pelosis…well you know, that club we’re not part of, they’ll get a heads up) you’re asleep.

  4. I don’t know about the rest of you guys, but I’m really growing weary of that asshole fuck, son of fuck. And to the assholes up voting that asshole, I’m tired of you too.

  5. Well back to the subject at hand, the democRATz seized power the traditional Communist way… with a rigged election. They’re not going to just give it all up with some silly election in November!
    You might “elect” your way into Communism, but you’re not going to elect your way out of it!
    There’s a nuther crisis waiting in the wings to be hatched by these vultures!

  6. “Most people like to be told what to do.”

    That’s as far as I got. Starting with a faulty premise does not intrigue me enough to follow the writers explanation.

    Same with fnucky. I ain’t readin’ shit that ain’t presented logically.
