Back in Dallas-Fort Worth, a lovely example of conurbation.

I have a layover in DFW Airport, which is a good example of subaltern/private government:

indianbronson.substack.com/p/part1-decent…
indianbronson.substack.com/p/part1-decent…

A clarifying question about power to ask is "who shows up if I call 911?"

A better question to ask is "who shoots at me, if it comes to that?"

The distinguishing power of State is violence:

"Don't be fooled by the Auntie Anne’s Pretzels (in every terminal!) and many global languages you’ll hear, this is sovereign territory under the rule of a serious government."
Not pictured: the Dallas-Fort Worth Department of Public Safety officer who declined to be photographed

("We don't allow photographs", and "turn around and go to your gate, right now")

Some people get to own a car.

Some people get to own a home.

Some people get to own a semi-autonomous body charged with governing DFW International Airport.
Keep reading, and learn how faithful Mormons are like the Taliban in the ways that matter (for government:)

The US has record highs in both:

- numbers of immigrants
- immigrants as a percentage of population

Have *most* Americans’ lives directly improved as a result? Have the benefits of the new economy and new society accrued to them? Image
Here’s the marriage rate.
Here’s the birth rate.
Here’s the suicide rate. (young highlighted)
And here’s the share in patriotism: Image

More Americans, especially young Americans, than ever before—and trending worse—are:

- not getting married
- not having children
- killing themselves
- feel no pride in the country

Broken promises on immigration, into the job market, into the housing market, is a part of that

This isn’t correct.

In its glory days, NASA was all jocks.
Former (and active duty) fighter pilots, submariners, heavy drinkers, smokers, etc.

The American space program was so defined by jocks its *nerds* were jocks, too.

“The Right Stuff” is about this. Image

Two reasons you don’t want to get carried away with way too many “skilled immigrants” are:

1. You shouldn’t displace your own young men

2. You actually want CULTURE FIT more than smarts. The balance of dynamic young men in your society should respect each other and get along;
Btw as you may recall——this is why the establishment media & Democrats were freaking out about Vance and begging Trump to pick a woman or a minority or anyone else except another “jock” white guy like himself.

It scares them for the very same reason fraternities scare them:

They *are* saying “no”, @moveincircles !

archive.is/LLUCU

Men are withdrawing from education,
Men are withdrawing from the workforce,
Men are withdrawing from the military,
And men are withdrawing from women.

In ever greater numbers, every year: x.com/moveincircles/…Image

Age.

18 year old men become 36 year old men in their next 18 years of life, starting from zero.

Increasingly they look at a sexual, financial, social, and racial dynamic at play from their adolescence and see they can’t win and are hated/scorned/mocked.

So they withdraw.
For a very long time, the deal societies gave young men was to ask a lot of them, including death—but, in return, they could reasonably expect to have a young virgin bride and an economic purpose with respect (including her respect): a household of their own.

This changed. Image

Abortion is the driver of the female electorate voting left. It boils down to:

Women keep having sex with guys who do not want to marry them—whose kids they themselves do not even want—and are terrified about being low-status single moms; so they want to be able to kill the kid
It’s not exactly a ‘men vs women’ thing — it’s all about unmarried, young (and youngish) women vs. everyone else;

Recent polling in Pennsylvania and other surveys show this.

Every other group besides unmarried women favors Republicans
Image

Here’s the electoral graph for “men vs women” and then “single” vs “married”

The issue is that young unmarried women have been completely deranged by living in a completely unnatural state of affairs which is medicalized and politicized, concerning intimate social relations.

Idea:

The US colonizes Haiti, turning it into a deportation exile zone where all illegal aliens, violent criminals, and former members of the dismantled deep state (and of course Haitians losing TPS) are all sent

The Dominican Republic gets $1 billion annually in border aid
There’s no reason that you couldn’t air drop food, construction equipment, building materials, fuel supplies, etc. In fact there should be a US military occupation of the entire Western side of Hispaniola, formerly Haiti, to oversee infrastructure development and gang elimination
Eventually, US troops withdraw, and all the people—the 11 Million there now + some 25 Million deportees—would be charged with forming a new national identity and government, with all at their disposal

I think former State Dept/USAID types would have to find it all quite exciting
