		<description><![CDATA[My sentiments exactly. Firebomb everything they value,watch them weep, enjoy their suffering. Rinse wash,and repeat.

Always position yourself so that the worst horrors have yet to be inflicted upon them, so that there is always the danger that you may &quot;pull out all the stops&quot; (best described and explained by their own imaginations), and employ scorched earth. That should put their rabbit-drives into the red zone and melt them down to a pile of blubbering goo with each new turn of the screw.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&gt; Zombies

I rather enjoy the current zombie craze, it signifies a lurking suspicion in the public mind of a systemic collapse. All is not well in our Cathedral paradise.

&gt; Simulations

I have a fairly extensive background in programming Monte Carlo simulations. The main problem with most simulations (especially in non-rigorous disciplines), is that the models are totally speculative, and therefore the results they produce are utterly worthless. The ideologically-motivated design of the simulation preordains the result. Just look at global-warming simulations, for example.

Now as to male-female complementarianism, it shouldn&#039;t be too hard to create a simulation that generates a male-female divergence. The key asymmetry is that a male can impregnate multiple females at little biological cost, while a female can only bear one child, at considerable biological cost, every two years or so. This means that men are rather expendable, as losing a few (or even half) of your males matters little to the size of the next generation, while every female counts. As a species, we take advantage of this by using men for genetic experimentation. Males are the risk-takers. This means men populate both ends of the achievement spectrum. More likely to find new continents, more likely to drown in a sea storm. More likely to be a genius, more likely to be insane.

This simulation would be simple, taught in any genetic algorithm class. A population of genomes, a fitness function, a mating algorithm, and some random mutation mechanism. 

&gt; Modernist Insanity, Neoreactionary Strategy

Modernist and post-modernist philosophy became unmoored when they lost the sacred fear of God. With no God, the worst instrumentalist tendencies of modernism could run wild. We hold on to vestigial ideas of human dignity, but without the nourishment of a sacred belief in life, this too must wither and die. 

As we have discussed before, neoreaction is primarily a critique of the Cathedral. If we could succeed in wresting civilization away from the Cathedral, that would mean total success. I sincerely hope this is the outcome.

We are in the gestation period, and the self-awareness of neoreaction as philosophical tradition, I feel, will serve us well. It may lead to a bit more navel-gazing that is strictly necessary, but if we are to attempt a top-down heart-transplant of civilization, I think this is the best way. Our first line of attack should be from the intellectual level. Barbarism is a last resort.

&gt; Batkid

Agreed. It&#039;s a public performance of narcissism masked as altruism...which of course, is the modus operandi of the left.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Richard Florida is an unintelligent Cathedral acolyte.

The only thing he has done in the last ten years is flog his absurd theories about the &quot;creative class&quot;, who live in &quot;creative cities&quot;, and work in &quot;creative industries.&quot; Basically he notes that there are more bike lanes and yoga workshops in San Francisco, then extrapolates that to encourage high-tech job growth, you just need to get some of that pro-gay, pro-diversity mojo, and your city can be the next Cupertino.

He&#039;ll look at a 50% asian Palo Alto, and an 85% black Detroit, and honestly believe that the difference is better schools. In short, he&#039;s completely worthless.

SO...it makes it all the more impressive that this message of &quot;community and diversity cannot co-exist&quot; is breaking through. Even if he pretends not to get the message (as his career literally depends on it), his readers are not quite as obtuse. Look at the comments. They&#039;re practically Sailerist.]]></description>
