I periodically hear in emails how grateful readers are to find this site. The realization that things will swing back towards K-selected,Conservative psychologies allows them to see that this current slide towards leftism is not a one way trip. Things go r, until leftists screw things up so badly that K returns by force. I am not the first to have noticed these cycles, even if I am the first to have associated them with r/K Theory and Reproductive Strategies.

Strauss Howe Generational Theory has been around for some time, and Strauss and Howe have made a pretty penny consulting with Hedge Funds over it’s predictions. It was first detailed in their 1991 book Generations: The History of America’s Future, 1584 to 2069, and subsequently refined in 1997′s The Fourth Turning: An American Prophecy – What the Cycles of History Tell Us About America’s Next Rendezvous with Destiny. The theory states that our history has four phases which repeat endlessly. The phases are Crisis, High, Awakening, and Unraveling. Here, Crisis is r-psychologies confronted by the shortage of K-selection. This turmoil produces an adaptive shift in the population’s psychology towards a more K-selected, politically Conservative psychology. High is the environment of r-selected resource excess that is produced by a majority K-selected populace, living in an environment where these rewards are enjoyed by those who produce them. Awakening and Unraveling are just the leftists gradually increasing in number due to the r-selection, and fucking up a good thing until it all falls apart, and the Crisis returns.

There is one huge difference this time, and that is our use of public debt to increase resource availability and extend the period of r-selection. This has allowed for a slight increase in the population’s shift towards the r-psychology in this cycle, and lengthened the period of Unraveling. That all will increase the magnitude of the Crisis we will face. This would have been predictable, if you had viewed the increases in national debt which began around 1980 in the context of this work . The disturbing aspect of this is that when the collapse comes, the hardcore Left will be particularly loony, since their amygdalae have essentially no adaptation to a more free, competitive environment. Today, not having free government healthcare, and free cellphones is the same to them as being tossed into Lord of the Flies. When things get so bad that there is no food or housing, they will be capable of anything. The coming Crisis will be epic.

Of course, today’s K’s are another breed, and unlike in the Roman Empire, they have not all been shipped off to foreign lands and distant garrisons for the last fifty years. There has been no removal of their genes from our gene pool. They have selectively bred, and produced a very aggressive breed of principled warrior, who likes his military hardware, views killing as an occasionally necessary evil, and who views those who transgress against him personally as sub-human. Even in this r-environment, through sheer force of will the American warrior has increased concealed carry rights, as well as created Castle and Stand Your Ground Laws. Although Europe’s warriors haven’t made those advances, it is only because they have just begun to rise. Today’s carefully bred K’s are a special breed, and they are beginning to awake, even before the Crisis begins.

It is tough to make a concrete prediction about exactly what is coming, beyond the fact that it will probably be more unusual in degree and scope than our past history. The conflict between r and K at the collapse will be unprecedented, and may yield an outcome we have not seen before, such as splits along ideological-geographic lines, with cities becoming like micro-countries, surrounded by hostile warrior nations which hold them in contempt, and refuse to allow them a say in how those outside the cities will live and behave. r’s will dive for the cover and safety of universal control afforded by the cities, as K’s migrate out, to escape the insanity.

r’s will not want to peacefully cede to the freedom and lack of government restrictions on behavior which will be all but unavoidable once the ability to draw debt is gone and the currency is inflated to oblivion. K’s will not like what r’s will want to do. Absent the intervention of disease or major war (both of which also eliminate r from the environment), something wild is coming.

The bright side is an epic Crisis phase will shift the populace much more towards K (and probably purge r from our societies more than it has been purged in the past). That will make for a High which will carry those of us who survive into some really nice golden years. We just have to meet the challenges which will face us shortly.

There is only one reason men would evolve to become weaker, and that is if fighting is uneccesary (due to free resource availability), and you are investing less in each offspring, so you can have more. Each individual is becoming a multiplier, instead of a competitor. That is an r-selected reproductive strategy. When K-selection comes, that phenotype disappears quite rapidly.

All of politics is a bit like three rabbits and a wolf stranded on an island, at dinnertime. The wolf says, “Well, it looks like somebody is about to get eaten.” The rabbits reply, “Let’s vote on who it will be!”

I am not sure you could do justice to this story, in a mere hour-long show, but it should be interesting, nonetheless. I read this very long story about them, back when it happened, and obviously was struck by the humor of a bunch of cement-headed, sociopathic juicers who were all “Go!” and no “Think!,” as they just went around trying to kill people, succeeding with some, and failing comically with others (only to head off to a strip club every time to regroup and plan for the next one).

I reread it recently, and saw it totally differently. This was a case study in how stupid, mentally-damaged people can take down the smart, by exhibiting a level of stupidity that is not plausibly believable. You would never think someone would do things that are so stupid. You can walk out the door with them, thinking they would never kill you, because they were just seen with you in front of your neighbors, your cleaning lady, and your personal mechanic. Who would kill you after being seen with you in front of all those witnesses? The answer is, they would, because when dealing with the mentally damaged, there are no rules, and there is no logic. Next thing you know, your headless torso is sticking out of a chemical drum, while these tools argue over whether the chainsaw which is clogged with all your hair is returnable, since it did advertise that it would handle all of a customer’s cutting needs, and it clearly failed to effectively dismember your body.

How could these morons get over on you? They were actually so stupid that you didn’t believe it was possible to be that dumb, so you assumed you misread things, and you got caught sleeping. You could not make this story up.

The lesson of the story is, be cautious, even when logic says it doesn’t matter. Don’t talk about your guns, don’t flash too much wealth, and never drive a yellow Lamborghini – unless it is goblin-bait for your secret life as some sort of cross between Charles Bronsen and Dexter.

Check your listings, and watch the show. It will be interesting.

Addendum. The ringleader will be a subject of a future reading faces post, though you won’t need to have seen the show to get the post.

Why is Colorado Deputizing the Secret Service to Enforce Local Laws?

At this link, we see that Colorado’s government deputizes Secret Service agents to enforce local laws, so they can be used as a proxy force to subdue locally elected law enforcement, should local law enforcement refuse to carry out the dictates of the state’s Leftist government.

Something bothers me about this. Why only Secret Service? Why not FBI/ATF/DHS or any other alphabet soup Federal LE agency with a tactical team? Why give this power exclusively to an agency which is mostly tasked with financial crime, counterfeiting, and Presidential Protection? Is this so the Secret Service can go fishing for local crimes among anti-Obama militia types, expanding their toolkit for generating probable cause on potential threats? Maybe not.

One of the little known authorities in Federal Law Enforcement is the power to deputize agents. Most federal agencies only do it when drawing in outside (credentialed) police officers from local agencies, such as for manpower and crowd control, during events like Presidential inaugurations, or for manhunts. Occasionally, agencies like the US Marshall’s service have deputized US Attorneys and Judges who came under threat, and wanted to carry a firearm for protection. However, Secret Service/Treasury has been the only agency I have read of, that, on political whim, will deputize anyone with the political pull to make stuff happen in DC. Several officials in the Clinton administration were deputized, and sworn in as Treasury agents, for the sole purpose of carrying a firearm.

From those cases it would appear that this requires no training, no background check, no psych evaluation, and no competency requirements be met. Just call your political windmaker, show up at the designated place at the designated time, put your hand on a Bible (or a Koran, or a Lady Gaga CD), and swear in to get your credentials. When you walk away, your words can carry the power of the US Government, you can carry the authority of the US Government, and you can carry any firearm you want, wherever you go, just like any other federal agent. I would be surprised if Valerie Jarret has not already availed herself of this, to augment her personal Secret Service detail.

I wouldn’t be surprised that with the right call from the right official, as an officially sworn, deputized Treasury Special Agent, you and your newly deputized friends could even raid a local Treasury armory, and sign out what you please, to launch whatever operation you want. As an additional benefit, if you can claim to be operating in an official capacity, at the request of any official, you could be immune from civil suit during your operation, like any other Federal Agent. In today’s judiciary, who knows? Judges rule on whims, justifying predetermined outcomes after the fact with the flimsiest of precedents. Four Supreme Court Justices say it would be constitutional to outlaw all gun ownership, because the Second Amendment only gives the government the ability to arm it own militias. Get the right judge, and they can say anything, and make anything legal.

Theoretically, that isn’t supposed to be how it all works, of course. Previously, when politically connected individuals had the Secret Service deputize them, they just used their new official credentials like a National Carry Permit on steroids, so they could carry a gun with them everywhere. But none of these untrained individuals ever wanted to launch a law enforcement operation, and none, to my knowledge, have ever been deputized with the purpose of executing any tasked operation. So the issue of chain of command, clearances, and approvals for operations has probably never been actually considered or tested, and I would be surprised if there is any policy Obama couldn’t bypass with a simple EO, or even just a phone call to the head of Secret Service, in the type of collapse environment we may face in the future.

I find it mildly interesting that a Democrat governor, receives push-back from his locally elected Law Enforcement over unconstitutional abridgments of freedom. Suddenly, he sees fit to give full local LE power exclusively to the one Federal agency which is known for taking any wholly untrained, politically partisan, mental-defective, and making them into legally credentialed, sworn Federal Law Enforcement Officers, on any connected politician’s whim. It would be a great way for Obama to create his own private Secret Police, to take on those evil local Sheriffs, who actually care about the people they serve.

I really hope people take a close look at this site’s work on r/K Selection Theory in humans, and how sustained dopamine release in a population may produce political Leftism in select individuals who are predisposed by genetics and rearing. We have had a lot of resource availability (and a lot of dopamine release) for a long time now, courtesy of our national debt and technological advances.

If you looked at it dispassionately, like a scientist examining another species, you would predict that we will have a cohort of r-psychologies in our population which will be as “r-Leftist” as any cohort in all of history. Stalin? China under Mao? Pol Pot? Castro? We have had such a flood of dopamine that our Leftists should, theoretically, put them all to shame in any matter involving despotism, tyranny, and crimes against humanity. It can’t happen here? Au Contraire, it could, and it could rival anything you have seen in history. It is looking like Local Law enforcement may be the first target of Obama’s new Domestic Security Force, (that is just as well funded and armed as our military).

I suspect, as the economic collapse occurs, the urge to control and clamp down will emerge in a way that it has rarely emerged in history. Bunnies are driven by panic. As the collapse begins, the bunnies’ sheer panic at the thought of losing control, will make them capable of anything. There is almost nothing bunnies fear more than a world of free individuals, interacting freely with others.

Only when the collapse finishes, and the outcome of a more Conservative nation becomes unavoidable (due to resource scarcity bringing back the K-psychology and crushing government) will the bunnies fear of inevitable loss, begin to drive them away from the battle, and into hiding. Once resource scarcity brings back Conservatism, the bunnies will flee for cover. But there will be a hairy period between the panic of the bunnies at the start of the collapse, and fearful hiding due to the return of Conservatism as the collapse progresses.

We need to recognize this, because Leftists are a lot more unhinged than we realize, and they will get more unhinged as their carefully assembled Rube Goldberg government begins to collapse upon itself. As the panic sets in, they will take things farther than we could ever imagine is possible here. If history is any guide, we will tend to see all of this, right at the border of “too late.”

Of course the American Warrior is also a rare breed, and we are heavily armed, as never before in history. I currently believe that the resource scarcity (and dopamine reduction) of the collapse will shift the populace’s attitudes rightward enough, quickly enough, that civil unrest is less likely than a simple hard return to Conservative ideals, and a consequent scurrying of the bunnies to cover. However, I have never seen this type of catastrophic societal collapse firsthand myself. I could be wrong.

If I am wrong, if the collapse just exacerbates the ideological gulf to proportions heretofore unimaginable, and the bunnies begin to really panic and look for anything to hold on to power, things may get interesting indeed.

Addendum : Local Sheriff’s also have the power to deputize. What would happen if the local Sheriffs, who didn’t want to see these laws enforced, just decided to deputize every law abiding citizen in their jurisdiction, with the condition they would be unpaid? I’m not sure under the laws out west it would even be necessary, but you could send them to a quick basic training course, and even let them take the certification test. Give every citizen who wants it status as a fully credentialed Sheriff’s Deputy, with carry privileges, and exclusion from the law, as it applies to mere citizens? Local citizens do elect the Sheriff to run the department as he sees fit, and he can deputize whoever he wants. If he determines he needs to take on a certain number of unpaid Deputies, to properly protect his constituency, there really isn’t anything to stop him. As a bonus, every citizen deputized gets an immediate national Full Carry License, good in every jurisdiction – even little Mikey Bloomberg’s New York City. Oh, what a temper tantrum that would produce in the little boy-king. Conservatives from Conservative regions of the country being fully licensed and carrying in New York City, and he can’t do a thing about it.

Are Narcissists obsessed with themselves, or obsessed with avoiding any anxiety regarding themselves? Anxiety is the motivator, not desire.

Basically, Klingenstein told the President of Bowdoin that Bowdoin should spend more time teaching what commonalities in our history bring Americans together, rather than focusing so much of its efforts on racial, gender, and class differences which separate us. It is such a beautiful concept, it is hard to imagine why Bowdoin’s President wouldn’t warmly embrace it, let alone why he ended up castigating Klingenstein as some racist heathen when he recreated the discussion months later for a speech. In the Bowdoin President’s version, he was endlessly assailed by a rabid racist, until he finally walked off in despair.

Since grassroots Conservative ideologues don’t tend to think like Liberals or Narcissists, our first response is to view the President of Bowdoin as a lying jackass, who just makes things up. He knows what happened, because he was there, so he must be lying. But in my experience, this might not be so. Narcissists very often have a very tenuous grip on reality, and here, I think the President of Bowdoin may have very little idea of exactly what happened during that golf outing, even as he is completely sure that he was assailed by a radical racist.

As I explained in the fractured amygdala, both Liberals and Narcissists appear to have hyper-sensitive amygdalae. The amygdala is a brain structure which scans incoming stimuli, looks for stimuli which appear “bad,” for lack of a better term, and then the amygdala gives us an unpleasant “brain pain,” until the bad stimuli is addressed in a way which renders it less-noxious. Maybe the “bad” stimuli is a tiger about to eat us, in which case our amygdala gives us an unpleasant aversive stimuli, until we escape, and the tiger is no longer a threat. Maybe we have a deadline for a project, in which case the amygdala haunts us until we finish it, and then it turns off.

In my experiences with Narcissists, their amygdala is so sensitive to anxiety, that just telling them any information which bothers them sets it off like a nuclear bomb, forcing them into an immediate state of denial of the offending stimuli, to try and short-circuit the “brain pain.” Tell a Narcissist something he doesn’t want to hear, and it is like spraying pepper spray from a fire extinguisher into his face. He won’t listen to the entire idea, consider it, and then reject it, like we would. Instead, the Narcissist will begin to get the faintest whiff of what you are saying, identify it as bad, and then he will close his eyes, hide his head, and wave his arms while screaming, until you are finished.

I have literally spent several minutes explaining some totally neutral technical topic to a Narcissist (a topic the Narcissist needed to understand in order to accomplish a task), only to finish, and then have the Narcissist proceed to explode in rage and attack me for criticizing him. As the conversation progressed, I discovered that the Narcissist thought that because I was telling him about something, I was implying he didn’t understand it, and therefore, he was stupid. Just that hint of a possibility of criticism at the beginning caused him to ignore everything I told him, after the first sentence. He literally didn’t hear a word, because he thought I was implying that he was ignorant of the topic. He was, however, certain that the rest of the conversation had consisted of me continuing to humiliate him for not knowing what I was describing. Even though he wasn’t listening to the technical information I was dispensing, and could not recall anything I said, his brain filled in the informational void for him with me castigating him for being stupid.

Of course, in a typically comedic twist, he actually didn’t understand the topic, and really needed to know what I was saying. However, as a Narcissist, he reflexively thought his ignorance was shameful. As a result, all he could see at the very beginning was my assumption he didn’t know it, so he exploded, assuming I was shaming him (something he assumed because that was probably something he would have enjoyed doing in similar circumstances).

I got around all of this with him by explaining that I wasn’t criticizing him, but was rather just telling him a “special” piece of knowledge I happened to learn by accident (and which he couldn’t possibly have known). Using this ploy, his Narcissistic amygdala booby-trap bomb was disarmed, and I could then re-explain what he needed to know, with most of what I said being absorbed, since I had made it clear that I wasn’t criticizing him, and indeed, he was beyond threat of criticism since he couldn’t know what I was about to tell him.

What was amazing was how once the Narcissist thought I was being critical of him, due to that first sentence, he would not process a single piece of information after that. He literally could not hear or process a single word. Once their amygdala is triggered, they cannot listen, so you could tell such a Narcissist that aliens from space were invading, and point to an alien behind him, and later all they would recall was how mean you were to them.

The funny thing about all of it is, your idea doesn’t have to actually be noxious to the Narcissist. The first sentence you say just has to have the faintest appearance of an idea he doesn’t want to hear, at the very beginning, when you relate it. If you want to do this, imbue the line with some psuedo-criticism, like an assumption they don’t know something, a mistake they made, some way someone else is better than them, or something funny about them. They will not listen from that point forward, and you will get an out-pouring of Narcissistic rage afterward.

Liberals, have a slightly more well-developed way to protect their amygdala. Liberals have developed several memes, which they will reflexively fall back on to shoehorn you and your statement into a patently negative light, thereby letting them intellectually justify ignoring everything you say. Each meme is almost like a programming subroutine, to allow them to ignore your argument and any cognitive dissonance it might produce, while still feeling intellectually superior, and correct in their reasoning. With Liberals, if the Liberal’s amygdala thinks the idea might possibly, maybe, be noxious in some way, they will immediately classify it as racist/homophobic/stupid/Conservative/etc., and they will not hear a single word you say after that.

From that point forward, their amygdala will fire off, and the Liberal/Narcissist will not listen, to protect themselves from the agony of amygdala anxiety, just as they would shut their eyes as you begin to fire pepper spray at them.

Here, in this case, Klingenstein mentioned diversity, and sounded vaguely critical at the outset, and Bowdoin’s President made the jump to classifying him as a racist who wanted to kick all the minorities out of the school. Once that happened, the President of Bowdoin did not hear a single word Klingenstein said after that, no matter what is was. In the President’s head, everything was some racist remark, and he just patiently endured them until he finally walked off in despair, “because you can’t reason with a racist.” He genuinely believes all of that, because that is what he remembers, even if he doesn’t remember a single phrase or idea Klingenstein said to him (which I am sure he doesn’t).

(It should be noted, if attempting an amygdala hijack, and your opponent successfully meme-ifies you in their mind, your hijack will fail, because they will no longer be listening. In such a case, you must de-meme-ify yourself in their head, by identifying how they meme’d you, and then showing exactly how wrong they are using pure logic, in an argument made to the crowd of observers watching. Once you are no longer racist, etc. to the crowd, they look silly for thinking that, and they are back paying attention, continue to out-group and humiliate, in a calm and reasoned fashion.)

Of course, when asked, the professors of Bowdoin don’t see themselves as partisan, at all. From the article:

“A political imbalance [among faculty] was no more significant than having an imbalance between Red Sox and Yankee fans,” sniffed Henry C.W. Laurence, a Bowdoin professor of government, in 2004. He added that the suggestion that liberal professors cannot fairly reflect conservative views in classroom discussions is “intellectually bankrupt, professionally insulting and, fortunately, wildly inaccurate.”

Perhaps so. But he’d have a stronger case if, for example, his colleague Marc Hetherington hadn’t written the same year in Bowdoin’s newspaper that liberal professors outnumber conservatives because conservatives don’t “place the same emphasis on the accumulation of knowledge that liberals do.”

To acknowledge they might be partisan would be to trip their amygdalae, with the prospect of being inferior. This is why all debate with Liberals comes down to childhood, “Yes you are!,” “No I’m not!” debate. There is no reasoning, or ability to consider facts.

If Klingenstein wants to screw with Bowdoin, then he should challenge every professor there to take the Narcissistic Personality Inventory Test. It is a nice, non-partisan test which will reveal any personality disorders among the staff. Since nobody at Bowdoin could possibly have a personality disorder, nobody should object to taking this simple test.

I think Conservatives have to understand the difference between r and K-strategies in r/K Selection Theory, to fully grasp this. Conservatism is an ideology, which at its most polar extreme, is designed for a world where in order to feed our families, we have to kill other people, and take their food. That means that before acting, we need to very carefully take in every piece of information, scrutinize it, and then plan our attack in a detailed fashion. If we fail to accurately mold our behavior to reality, we will die. If we fail to consider a piece of evidence because we don’t like it, we will die.

Liberals are designed for an r-selective world with resources everywhere, where when confronted with a potential threat, they immediately run as fast as they can to a new place, without looking back. If there is a threat, and you fail to run, you die. If you run, but there wasn’t a threat, there is no penalty. As a result, you are best served by being overwhelmingly panicked at the mere possibility of threat. This is the difference between the psychologies of the wolf and the rabbit, and it was produced very carefully in our species, over eons of selection. In humans, it speaks to a wide gulf between our methods of cognition, and our behavioral instincts.

We cannot talk to Liberals, and reason with them, wolf to wolf. If ever we are going to communicate, we will need to learn how to slip information past their amygdala, and that will require a better understanding of this bizarre psychological state.

If you have Liberal Brain Damage, nothing is worth fighting for – even a girl being raped.

The recent case of Steubenville high school students callously making a video of the rape of a classmate is an excellent case study of Liberal brain damage – how the Liberal’s pursuit of a pacifistic, r-selected society produces an atrophy of the very brain structure needed to fight evil. This purposefully created Liberal brain damage produces a surreal abandonment of values and traits that we would normally hold dear, if left to our own devices.

In this case, a group of high school students carried an unconscious, drunk girl, from party to party, while repeatedly stripping her naked and sexually assaulting her. While this was going on, other students watched, texting updates on the attack and posting videos to social media. Nobody stood up and tried to stop it. Two of the perpetrators have since been convicted.

These are the rabbit people which Liberals create, all of them exhibiting the fundamental trait of the Liberal – Liberal brain damage. All of these guys have been raised in a nation where Liberals have made a conscious effort to atrophy the critical brain structure required for flagging immoral material, and driving opposition to it – the amygdala. This is purposefully inflicted brain damage, designed to produce a human that is so lacking in honor that they are incapable of standing up and fighting for anything.

The amygdala is the brain structure which first flags something negative as significant to the brain, and which then nags our brain with an unpleasant aversive stimulus, until we fix the problem which the amygdala perceives. In Liberal brains, this structure is found to be measurably deficient in MRI examinations of the brains of Liberal ideologues. Liberal brain damage is real, and the damage can actually be seen when you look at a Liberal brain.

To inflict this brain damage, first Anticompetitive Liberals portray all competitive sports (which develop the amygdala with experiences of success and failure) as evil and wrong, from tag to dodge-ball. They will even ban these games, to prevent children from exercising this brain structure in any way. From each child’s earliest days, the slightest hint of aggression (an amygdala-driven behavior), even be it chewing a pop-tart into the shape of a gun, is taught to be unacceptable through aggressive punishment. The innate aversion to open sexuality (produced by amygdala activation) is removed through desensitization, while students are taught that judging any behavior of others (also an amygdala-driven behavior) is unacceptable. All of this is purposefully inflicted brain damage, designed to produce Liberalism in these youth.

At the neurological level, this is all about turning off the amygdala, so it will never be exercised, or developed. If the amygdala is never trained to flag something as significant, judge it as bad, and drive a selfless, aggressive behavior to attack it or avoid it (all functions the amygdala performs), if individuals are actually punished in childhood for allowing their amygdalae to operate in such a fashion, is Steubenville really surprising? This is precisely how Liberal brain damage manifests – these young men have been rigorously trained to behave like a Liberal. Don’t judge, don’t get upset, and never resort to aggression, no matter what is happening. It is all purposefully inflicted Liberal brain damage.

Our public education system spends our tax dollars teaching these children that aggressive men are bad, that men judging the behavior of others is bad, that women never need protection, that all manner of sexual behavior is not only acceptable, but to judge it is criminal, and that nothing is ever worth fighting over. Our culture idolizes the Lindsey Lohan’s and Chris Brown’s, who never suffer any consequence for any behavior. Be acceptable and you are unacceptable. Be unacceptable and you are acceptable. It is all upside down, because Liberals are brain-damaged, r-selected psychologies in a K-selected species.

Is it any wonder that no young man was there who would step up and make a stand to try and stop this? Suppose one had, and a fight had erupted? Who would Liberals castigate as the enemy? In a Liberal brain damaged world, to not have Liberal brain damage means you need to be punished until you exhibit it.

We see this here, as Leftists increasingly enact policies and cultural norms designed to shield amygdalae from any unpleasant stimuli, whether it be trying to normalize the grossly aberrant and indecent or forcing upon society the brain-damaging conflict-aversion of political correctness. Each new policy, by shielding the amygdala from any unpleasantness, by shutting it off, produces a population of Liberal-brain-damage zombies, whose amygdalae are non-functional. These damaged and atrophied amygdalae will flag nothing as significant or unpleasant, no matter how heinous. Here in the Steubenville case, a guy walks in on his two friends raping an unconscious girl, and it is nothing significant. The difference between that, and the armed Nazi’s who saw the picture below, and thought nothing of it, is a matter of degree, no matter how large.

Liberal brain damage will make this seem like a normal everyday occurance – and even if it wasn’t, it wouldn’t be worth getting violent over.

In both cases, things which should have provided enough aversive stimulus to motivate fighting were brushed off as insignificant, due to Liberal brain damage. This is exactly why Hitler could so easily man the various death camps he ran, where innocent women were herded to their deaths, their children often clinging fearfully to their legs. Liberal brain damage produces the very banality of evil, by rendering everything unexceptional.

Wherever horrors are ignored by cowards, it is due to the Liberal brain damage of the rabbit-people, often usually purposely inflicted on the populace in the hopes that everyone will reject all judgmentalism and discrimination. As Liberalism progresses, each amygdala becomes wholly incapable of producing aversive stimulus in response to the site of evil. Once amassed, all of this Liberal brain damage can easily become the seed of an evil we cannot imagine, if we allow it to grow. It is designed to accept evil, bow obsequiously before it, and carry out its orders, without question or objection, no matter what they are. Nothing is worth fighting.

The saddest thing is, all of this Liberal brain damage is really created not by r-selected Liberals, so much as by the failings of the K-selected Conservatives in society. All brain damaged rabbit-people have an element of the prey species in them. Whether it be their desire to re-wild America with large man-eating predators, or their innate desire to side with whoever is the most violent in their environment, be it criminal or terrorist. We Conservatives fail to constrain Liberalism, solely because in being polite and respectful of evil cowards, we invite the contempt of the cowards for our weakness.

If ten Conservative kids had risen up, and delivered the beating that these rapists deserved, Liberals would have risen up in outrage. “It was vigilante-ism!,” they would have cried. However, as weak and pathetic Liberals, they would have been helpless to do anything about it, without the acquiescence of K-selected police officers, and the K-selected community. Is a Liberal going to confront a Conservative, face to face and subdue him? The very idea of a Liberal coward standing up and risking his own safety personally for anything is preposterous. He has Liberal brain damage.

Of course in such a scenario, the nascent rapists would never again have sunk to such depths – their amygdalae would have been trained by the shock of aversive stimuli – their Liberal brain damage cured in one shock treatment. If adult Conservatives then rose up, and posed a threat of any form to any Liberal who dared open their mouth in support of the rapists, Liberals would have retreated into the shadows, never to be heard of again, never to damage another brain with their stupidity and cowardice.

They would only have returned when Conservatives became “civilized” and respectful, at which time the Liberals would again set about normalizing rape, eliminating empathy, and sympathizing with the savages. It is our civilized natures which are most responsible for the destruction of our civilization, before our very eyes. That, is due to our own Liberal brain damage, which has caused our own amygdalae to not activate strongly enough to motivate us to deal with a problem which is right before us. That too, will be fixed by the coming collapse.

A lot of people in the American Left deride Russian President Vladimir Putin for his repression of Russian r-Leftist groups like Pussy Riot. Yet, I have no doubt, were President Putin to allow such groups to begin openly attacking Russia and its leadership, promoting sexual indecency and deviancy, and demanding leftist concessions of the government, Russia would begin a slide into r-Liberalism, immorality, and the same collapse which now stalks our nation, would be eagerly awaiting them as well.

Say what you will, under President Putin’s leadership, Russia is remaining strong and united, precisely because the r-psychologies are repressed. Even the moral effects of this on the Russian society are obvious. How many of us would have reacted with shock if a story of callous rape such as in Steubenville emerged in Moscow, instead of America? How many Europeans would be surprised if the Russians tolerated cases of Muslim gang rapes of young Russian girls in Moscow, instead of Europe? What does it say about American and European moral values that acts of savagery that we are unsurprised by in our own cultures, would seem out-of-place in nations such as Russia? Why are we willing to expect better of the Russians, than our own nations?

On the bright side, I predict that when the times comes for the pendulum to shift back, it will not take a great show of force for the Left to come scampering to the feet of Conservatives, Stockholm-Syndrome-style, supportive of all that Conservatism stands upon, and eager to please.

For of all the shortcomings of values and honor the left exhibits, they all pale into insignificance beside the fundamental, underlying traits of Liberal brain damage– pathetic cowardice and groveling before threats.

Cyprus – a window into our future.

Accounts indicate that Cypriot Banks experienced a flood of new bank accounts, mostly opened by Russians, some legit, some not so much. With these new accounts, a lot of cash suddenly rushed into bank coffers. Rather than sit on the cash, the banks invested it, seeking to grow it, as all banks will do. They bought a lot of Greek bonds, and other bad assets, thinking they were safe, stable investments. I had never thought about this, but now wonder how deeply US bank investments are invested in US government debt, and other bad assets which will plunge in value during the collapse.

My working (and admittedly highly ignorant) assumption, had been that when the US ran out of money, the government would be forcibly shrunk, or collapse outright, but the rest of the system would go on. This will almost certainly not be so, and it may be because of a Leftist play that appears new.

The old Leftist game plan was to lobby for taxes, get the money, and spend it on their welfarites and social programs. It involved class warfare, and pitting elements of takers in the population against the producers in the population, but at least it involved the consent of a majority of the governed, until Leftism gradually grew strong enough to seize power outright.

Back in the eighties, Conservatives in America decided rather than fight this, they would focus on a strategy they called Starving the Beast. They would fight to minimize taxes as much as possible, and this would stifle the growth of government. They allowed the use of debt to grow government, but apparently felt this would self-limit. At the point the debt became unsustainable, it would stop the growth of government.

The problem is, banks are now in the same boat as the government, because when you deposited your money into the bank, the bank took your money, turned around, and gave a portion to the government, in return for a “guaranteed” share of tax receipts later. Still other portions of your money were invested in other assets which will devalue in an environment of uncertainty, as will accompany a collapse. On paper, this all woks out well, except if the government gets in a position where it is going to be insolvent. If the government’s boat capsizes, the banks are right there with it, and so is anyone who gave their money to the banks.

Taken together, whether it arose through careful Leftist planning, or rank stupidity, this has produced the new Leftist game plan we see in action today. Leftists had someone else (ie. government or banks) borrow a huge amount of money, which the Leftists then gave away to the takers and welfarites. Normally, the recipients of such money would have to pay it back, but in this case, they never will. This created a debt, which has been passed around, and which will ultimately arrive at the doorstep of anyone who has saved, or been responsible, if they don’t actively take measures to protect against getting stuck with it.

Sadly, the individuals currently passing this hot debt potato around are all very smart experts in the financial field. This means that the individuals most likely to find themselves holding that debt when the music stops, will be your average Joe’s, just trying to work and contribute from day to day, and save enough in their bank accounts for the American Dream.

This is what is really different. In the old game plan, Leftists at least sought the consent of a majority of the governed, before committing their stupidity. Today, Leftists spend the money, create the bill for their freebies, and pass it around, until it lands where those who are holding it don’t know they are holding it, and thus fail to get rid of it. Those people are average Joes who entrusted their money to a bank, and have no idea that it has been used to buy such bad assets.

When the debt comes due, like financial suicide bombers, Liberals and Leftists will tell everyone that they can either surrender a large portion of their wealth to government, or lose it all to the civilization collapse the Leftists created.

At some point, as our governments go under, banks will find that their depositor’s money, which was given to government with the promise of greater value coming back someday, is not coming back. Suddenly banks will sit at the precipice, and we will all be told that we will either pay a portion of the bill the Leftist’s created, or the whole artifice will come crumbling down. Government guarantees these accounts, of course, up to $250,000. But if the government is insolvent to the point that bonds are worthless, deposit insurance either isn’t going to be operational, or the freshly printed currency it offers will be effectively worthless.

Of course, it is worth noting, the only way to truly fix this is to put the government on austerity. As the collapse occurs, the welfarites and takers will be continuing to drain the system as fast as they can, and Liberals will be only too happy to help them. As long as they are still being given copious freebies, nothing is being fixed. Taxing “wealth” will only be a temporary measure, intended to temporarily forestall collapse, while Leftists continue to spend what remains of your money on the welfarites and takers. During such the respite created by such taxes, the Liberals are just creating a bigger bill they will stick you with again, later on. This pattern will continue until your entire savings are gone, and the whole system collapses. It is how Leftists operate.

Cypriots have just reached the first tipping point, but everyone will probably get there at some point or other, since these things seem to progress in that direction inexorably, without fail, everywhere. Liberals will continue to rack up debts giving their freebies away, and those debts will continue to float around, looking for someone with value to pay them, until there is no more money and things collapse. These days, nobody’s amygdala seems to register the pain which is in the offing. Until the pain is actually inflicted, it will be dismissed as impossible. Leftists are enjoying that advantage for now.

How best to avoid this would be a tough question, but it begins with a recognition of the game. The banks have given much of their depositor’s money to governments and other entities, who themselves have spent it at the behest of Liberals on the welfarites and the takers. It is assumed that as the collapse begins, people will try to flood to safety.

Since the collapse will likely start in Europe, it is believed Europeans will flood to the dollar and US bonds for safety (relative to their currencies and bonds), propping dollars and US bonds up. That is probably the time to get your wealth out of the banks, and seek physical custody of precious metals, as well as survival tools such as arable land and other post-apocalyptic functional abilities, given that the US will almost certainly follow in collapse.

Some well connected insiders have even gone into millions of Nickels, on pallets, housed in large heavily armed facilities in Texas. This indicates that they think this may end with the ability to smelt US currency for its constituent metals legally, in Texas (implying that a dissolution of the US government, or a secession of Texas is believed to be a possible, if not likely, outcome).

Those of you with IRAs, who want to prepare, but don’t want to be hit with a penalty, might find the following site very interesting. As always, consult your own tax professional.

The US Federal Government will not go quietly. However, if we can find a way to protect our stored wealth as the government and financial systems enter the wild flailing of their death throes, we might end up in a surprisingly good place. We might all be able to sit back and watch, as grassroots Liberals are stripped of all of their wealth, while the government they so dearly love collapses, and falls all around them.

One interesting aspect of this new strategy is that it has allowed Leftist wealth seizure to progress faster than the nation’s psychology and disarmament. Normally, this level of wealth seizure would need to be preceded by decades of desensitization, terror conditioning, governmental culling of K-psychologies, and most importantly, gun confiscation. Here, because the spending was done so quickly and painlessly with credit, it has built up an impressively sized redistributive wallop of pain, which is guaranteed to piss off a lot of people in a society which is still mostly K-selected in nature, heavily armed, and historically, prone to violence. Add in the destruction of healthcare, the collapse of the stock market and economy, the sudden end of things like Social Security and Medicare, the violent emergence of the welfarites and takers from the shadows and the violent chaos they will produce, and the sudden reduction of quality of living which will accompany the collapse, and these are the things which wars are made of – if people are made fully aware of how they have been screwed, and exactly whose fault it is.

We need to be sure everybody knows who is at fault in the coming maelstrom – Leftist Liberals.

Obama’s Poltical Database Grows, While Republicans Dither.

All of history is baby steps, all heading in the same direction. Although we have seen this movie before, several parts are different this time. For starters, the Stalins and Mao’s never had a political database of all their anti-Liberal enemies, which began accumulating it’s data in their childhood. If I thought the nation was going to be financially sound for a hundred years or more, that would be ominous. I would not see any way around a genuine, neighbor killing neighbor civil war breaking out, once Conservatives began to be killed by the government based on their inclusion in the database (something which would seem inevitable, if r/K Selection Theory’s implications for a constant leftward slide in successful civilization are correct).

At this point, our people’s saving grace would seem to be the unique financial circumstances of our nation. Never before has public debt allowed a nation to slip so far into r-selected Liberalism so quickly on nearly limitless free resources, all along the way passing metrics which should produce collapse, but which never actually had their natural effect, due to this unnatural state of affairs.

Absent the debt infusion, natural resource limitation would have long ago produced a much more aggressive conservative right, which might have produced more aggressive clashes with an increasingly aggressive left. However the free resources kept the nation so comfortable that everybody just sat back enjoying themselves, allowing the natural leftward slide to accelerate as never before in history.

Now we find ourselves under a governmental structure that is barely propped up to solvency under the best of economic circumstances, despite having access to limitless free debt. Obviously, once the debt reaches critical mass, our economy heads downhill, and we can no longer borrow money without limit, K-selection will return with a vengeance, and so will Conservatism.

On the bright side, Republicans do have the option of creating their own political database. It remains to be seen if they will be able to capitalize on the opportunity, however.

The post When The Obama Liberal Political Database Meets Information Gathering Services Which Begin in Grade School appeared first on .

Below are several screencaps of a home video. The individual in it is opening Christmas presents as he sits on a couch, while the cameraman is making a joke. Notice the angle of his eyebrows, and the area immediately under the eyes. That Affect is Anguish.

Cut that last picture off below the nose, and you could think he was crying, instead of trying to smile.

When a constant underlying anguish bleeds into unrelated facial expressions, it usually does so because it was experienced so constantly and overwhelmingly as a child that it was conditioned into a constant underlying affect. In most cases, this is secondary to an innate Narcissism, the entitlement of which magnifies every slight and unfortunate circumstance to unbearable proportions. To the innately Narcissistic, what would have been slightly disadvantageous circumstances to a normal person, become unbearable burdens, which profoundly damage their brains, and etch expressions like the above onto their faces.

When I see those eyebrows, and the anguish written across the areas under the eyes, I immediately assume the individual has deep psychological problems, and should be treated with extreme caution. Learning to spot anguish underneath normal facial expressions is probably one of the best steps one can take to protect themselves from the evil among us.

Be sure to notice also, the postural slump of the shoulders, even when seated. These characters are lifelong losers, and they rarely carry the ramrod straight posture of a Marine Drill Instructor. They will look beaten down. Slumped shoulders, hunched backs, and bowed heads are all important giveaways.

These are men who think any transgression against others is justified, because life has kicked them for so long, that everything is unfair. It is very similar to the Liberal’s assumption that hard earned dollars can be taken, because the industriousness which produced them was an unfair advantage. When you are a loser, life is unfair – so your unfairness in the face of unfairness becomes fair.

As the video progresses, the look of anguish finally gives way to the look of utter anguish below, followed by the subsequent expression of contempt and anger. As Affect Psychology maintains, Anger emerges from a perpetuated affect which remains unresolved, and unreleased. Here, the sadness is so constant, that it finally erupts into jealousy and rage, even as the individual strives to control and conceal it.

Shortly after the look of anger and contempt, the individual uttered the reason for the presentation of these affects.

“I don’t think I got all of this!”

The individual being filmed was Vaughn Taylor, an ex-con who had fled a halfway house in Utah. He had fled along with his friend Edward Dellie, also an ex-con on the run from the same halfway house. They had broken into several unoccupied houses in an isolated valley, probably stealing the SA revolver in his shoulder holster along the way, as well as another gun.

This video was shot with a stolen camcorder, in the final house they would break into. There, while the family was out shopping, Vaughn and Dellie relaxed and opened all of the family’s Christmas presents, while videotaping it.

As this went on, Taylor was being repeatedly reminded by each present of how he didn’t get lots of presents like this. This initially made him sad, until finally, as Affect Psychology would predict, the perpetual and unresolved anguish turned into feelings of jealousy, rage, and anger.

When you see characters like this, they often will have rage for their mother. I am not sure why. Maybe bad mothering in the first years of life predisposes towards NPD as it does with APD, and then adds further rage at the bad mothering they endure later. Or maybe moms are easy to blame one’s failures on when you are a loser, since the Narcissist reasons that their mom could have just given them success. I don’t know. I do suspect that such an underlying anti-mom dynamic is what was at play in this character’s head, however. If his mom wasn’t such a bad mother, he could have grown up normal, and had nice Christmases like these people had.

Unfortunately, Narcissists don’t do complex analysis, and tailor their behavioral responses to the unique aspects of new circumstances. They create broad categories of interactions, and shoehorn all of their subsequent human interactions into one of those categories – whether the circumstances fit or not.

If a Narcissist hates his mother, he doesn’t meet other women and view them as different people. They are his mother, and all of his mother’s sins will transfer directly to the new woman for the purposes of their interactions. I once had a Narcissist bitching to me about his wife. He said of her, “My own mother, and she rah, rah, rah…..” He went on and on, without any clue of the slip.

Unfortunately, once a Narcissist is pissed at his mother, he will see her in every woman he crosses paths with. When the family, whose presents Taylor was stealing returned, a young girl, her mom, and her Grandmom entered the house. Taylor and Dellie jumped out, and confronted them. Without provocation, Taylor shot the mother and the grandmother, killing them both immediately. When the girl’s father returned with his other daughter, Taylor told Dellie to shoot the father, but Dellie refused. Taylor shot him, and then kidnapped both young daughters.

The father, shot in the face, doused with gasoline, and set aflame in the now burning house, played dead. As the men left with his daughters, he jumped into the shower to douse the flames, ran from the house wet and unclothed into a freezing Utah Winter, and ran down the road for help. The two ex-cons were caught almost immediately due to his heroism, and the young girls were saved. Both ex-cons were noted by responding officers for being utter cowards once faced with real men who were ready to kill them. Vaughn got the death penalty, while Dellie got life.

It is tough to explain to someone who hasn’t seen it, how perpetual anguish so easily and frequently erupts into a jealousy and rage which cannot be reined in by logic or reason. However, if you see it yourself, you will know the danger behind that facial expression. It is very similar to what motivates modern Liberalism.

Watch eyebrows, and if you see two that are unduly raised in the middle, and sloping down to the outside, set over squinting eyes, look below the eyes, and ask yourself, “If this person’s mouth wasn’t trying to smile, would the area beneath their eyes look sad or pained?”

Above is a guy with the beginning of such sloping eyebrows, but his facial expression is utterly relaxed in comparison to Vaughn’s. He isn’t anguished, and the area under the eyes is relaxed. He is a detective who worked the Vaughn/Dellie case, and his eyebrows may be sloping because he is describing anguishing elements of the crime, but he doesn’t have the look of anguish and pain etched below the eyes which Vaughn does, and the outer edge of his eyebrows aren’t squinting down as if grimacing. He does not look anguished.

For those who want to see real anguish, not associated with mental illness, a good image is here.

If you see that anguished expression etched on someone’s face, be very careful, and understand that any smile may just be a mask concealing much deeper troubles.

The real problem with such individuals is they are not brave – they will not lash out at you to your face, unless you are utterly powerless. They are the modern Liberal. If you have any ability to resist their attack, they will strike out at you behind your back without warning, when you’re not looking. They will try to catch you sleeping.

Don’t let them.
