Every time you use the Dole Card in the US a small slice goes to the Financial Sector. Goldman is food stamps for instance. So the geeks you refer to are not that dumb, a guaranteed income is a guaranteed profitable career for said geek.

That’s in line with post-work guaranteed income, that is to say the nationalization of our 401Ks. Called GRA.
Guaranteed Retirement Annuity. Don’t worry it’s backed by Treasury Bonds.

“Let there not be trouble in my time, but in my children’s and preferably great grand children’s. ”

well.

You can eliminate the useful parts of psychopathic then… like no fuck around courage git er done.

Normally most people who are enslaved or have lost their will to live in a manner they can stand stop having kids.
For instance in many Muslim households especially Sunni it’s a pig stye There’s a reason – there’s no percentage in the women cleaning up. You’ll never hear the laughter of women from them either….really…you notice when you return amongst ours.

My progeny will be degraded slaves. I think I’ll have more.

Psychopathic isn’t the right term. NOPE. Take the Hare test. You’ll FAIL. No kidding.

Hell that attitude you’ll fail the monkey tests.

Perhaps that was it, I kept thinking. Perhaps I was getting too old for the sort of jeezny I had been leading, brothers. I was eighteen now, just gone. Eighteen was not a young age. At eighteen old Wolfgang Amadeus had written concertos and symphonies and operas and oratorios and all that cal, no, not cal, heavenly music. And then there was old Felix M. with his Midsummer Night’s Dream Overture. And there were others. And there was this like French poet set by old Benjy Britt, who had done all his best poetry by the age of fifteen, O my brothers. Arthur, his first name. Eighteen was not all that young an age, then. But what was I going to do?

But where I itty now, O my brothers, is all on my oddy knocky, where you cannot go. Tomorrow is all like sweet flowers and the turning vonny earth and the stars and the old Luna up there and your old droog Alex all on his oddy knocky seeking like a mate. And all that cal. A terrible grahzny vonny world, really, O my brothers. And so farewell from your little droog. And to all others in this story profound shooms of lip-music brrrrr. And they can kiss my sharries. But you, O my brothers, remember sometimes thy little Alex that was. Amen. And all that cal.

Yes, related is my comment above. Care about something larger and more permanent than yourself and you will find the lure of nihilism diminished.

Don’t form an essentialist theory about intelligence or Europeanism to explain why intelligent Europeans adopt progressive morality. A theocracy was installed in America and the way to gain status is through piety. Intelligent people are good at gaining status.

We have a sample size of one civilization at this level of technology. We can’t draw conclusions about what must be.

Nationalism is natural. I have an idea for a friendly form of nationalism that I have been kicking around that allows for defining a “nation” in ways other than ethnicity (though that too if that’s what you want!). It’s a kind of libertarian nationalism – nationalism with a strong streak of “live and let live”.

It’s competitive advantage as a memeplex is that people want to have pride in their way of life, and I feel like a lot of Westerners would leap at a nice way to have pride instead of being forced to demean their own society.

It can also be formulated as an expanded form of utilitarianism – maximizing not just your own enjoyment, but also the benefit of the people and institutions you care about. Under utilitarianism the sphere of things you care about is too small and under universalist utilitarianism (such as preached at Less Wrong) the sphere of things you care about is too large.

We need to formulate a natural ideology that appeals to what people innately care about. The more real ideology wins out over the more abstract when the two conflict. The dissolution of the EU is the perfect time for this to spread.
