Women can't be witchers for the same reason they can't be space marines and no retcon of this is to be accepted

There is that underlying subversive "vibe" that shows a certain degree of intent from the writers in the trailer. They show you.

Ciri being a witcher is a disregard for canon in the name of having a female protagonist. But the plot of the trailer itself gives it away, it's meant to send a retarded message of "women are to be sacrificed by men" in a perversion of the old folk tale of the princess being sacrificed to the dragon, and the fact that when Ciri kills the monster she comes back to find the villagers killed the girl anyway because by damn they're gonna sacrifice that woman whether it makes sense or not, shows that somewhere in CD Projekt is a wine aunt or hateful uggo troon who is making key story decisions.

Speaking exclusively to IGN ahead of the reveal, executive producer Małgorzata Mitręga said Ciri was “the very organic, logical choice.”

His account on here is @PepMangione

My general read on everything I've seen of him so far, to include follows etc, is a Rogan listener with +20 IQ points to the median.

Not particularly interested in political discourse but very interested in political philosophy. Microdosing gym bro with bland bipartisan follows.

I think such things are real, but I don't think they have anything to do with them rising to power. They rise to power because of cabal theory: (Bit of a long post here, but hopefully of interest)

Normies don't network, not really, not with the enthusiasm of a cabal. People form powerful networks when they have something in common. Engaging in the taboo leads to secretive groups of people with a common interest, the more taboo, the more exclusive the cabal.

Normal people and bonds of social adjacency cast too wide a net. You can't extend a positive bias with anywhere near enough focus to your ethnos/nationality/geography/faith to move the needle easily in the direction of a chosen characteristic.

An innocent group of hobbyists can be a cabal of sorts, people who are friends lend each other mutual aid/network. But benign things like hobbies don't lend themselves to the type of thinking that makes for a cabal most of the time. Lifestyles do, the taboo or illegal does most of all, because it's an interest in something that can't be shared with the vast majority of people. It is exclusive.

This is why you have gay mafias taking over institutions and corporations while your local HAM radio club is just a bunch of dudes. A group surrounding a hobby usually stays limited to merely a focus on the hobby at hand. They talk about radios, and adjacent topics, then go back to their lives.

A cabal of people with an interest in something that involves the political implies a need or desire for power to advance it. Your local neighborhood of sodomites gossips together, hangs out together, gets each other jobs and promotions.

But more than anything, the type of thinking that the well-off engage in creates them. There is a different mode of thinking to the business owner or the wealthy investor or salesman compared to the wagie on a salary. For the former, time is money. People in this strata of life have a propensity to not waste their time on relationships that don't advance their goals or career, because they have a large incentive to use their time to make more money.

So the country club of well-off men talk shop and network to advance each others goals. That's a cabal too. But the group of wealthy people with a taboo interest they can't talk about with most of the population advances the most.

Secrecy and exclusivity is baked in because of the taboo. So when powerful people with a lifestyle/taboo extend a bias towards other people in the same category, those lesser people become powerful too because of the preference. The sweet spot for a cabal is the social scale larger than friendship, but smaller than ethnicity/nationality/geography.

Lets take the California National Guard for example, when I was in, the leadership core was largely composed of the same extended group of swingers. This is network of military officers gave the extended swinger network preferential treatment due to social proximity, and eventually filled up the ranks.

Then a long chain of scandals and retirements weakened the power of that group, and now it's an extended network of homosexuals and fag hags that rushed to fill the vacuum and run things over there now.

Or the problem the Catholic Church has had with gay priests. They all have a secret they can't talk about with anyone but each other, thus they have a level of social intimacy and preference for one another over regular members of the Church, which makes that group difficult to ever root out entirely.

The world largely moves to the tune of small social groups of well resourced people who have a baked in incentive to give each other preferential treatment within a given milieu and pretend it's not happening.

I think a big part of why things have begun to swing the "right" way, is because through pure accidental entropy, anons came about and are a cabal of our own.

If the recipe for a good cabal culture is secrecy+exclusivity+resources/influence, all in the correct amounts, anons did it.

And like any cabal it attracts similar personalities with similar interests into one place where they can network with an in-group. The reason that anons aren't quite like these other cabals based around fetishes is because our "taboo" is impolite truth, and the truth is always a better backstop that is easier to defend and justify.

The irrational and punitive system put in place by liberalism largely necessitated being anonymous if you wanted to speak impolite truths without retaliation.

It's the right level of secrecy, but it's different than theirs. Instead of relying on others to keep your secrets, which breeds mutual dependency and lockstep action to protect each other, anons keep their own secrets. Combine the lack of that dependency with the disagreeableness to value the impolite truth and we have the infighting that we are accustomed to.

Resources is just coming with time. As anons are from all sorts of walks of life, and the general unifying principles are the pursuit of the truth for fun and satisfaction, coupled with a disagreeable autodidactic intellect. This is a rare combination in society that is its own form of exclusivity(less so these days as impolite truths become less taboo)

So the difference between a cabal of gay pedophiles in Washington DC and Anons are that they are mutually dependent on each other, which breeds cohesion, silence, and moving in lockstep.

Anons lack those advantages, but because we aren't mutually keeping secrets, we can exist in fragments, like steppe tribes on the plains. Several groups that are loosely confederated and even actively don't like each other can exist without imploding the whole thing. It means we can scale.

It also means bad ideas can be burned and good ideas can evolve, there's no dogma that becomes outdated because it'll just keep changing as we keep pushing up against each other and arguing. The wisdom of the crowd decides on the direction of that evolution, and a bottom up structure is way more stable than a top down structure.

There's a very fundamental reorganization planned for the Air Force, and anyone familiar with the USAF status quo can see it for what it is, reading the tea leaves and seeing war is coming.

Lets talk about the CSAFs writeup on "Great Power Competition" or "GPC" 🧵

First of all, the sources I'm looking at can be found in full at the below link, under the documents tab. This comes from the office of the Chief of Staff of the Air Force. I don't know if other components are undergoing similar restructuring or not.

af.mil/reoptimization…

First off, I want to note that throughout this, the note that keeps getting foot stomped seems to be worries about a singular competitor. This shift is very explicitly aimed at China, and doesn't offer any real regard to Iran or Russia as adversaries in GPC.

Do they actually outperform or do they just immediately start hiring their coethnics until they have a ton of influence in an organization and push everyone else out to make room?

In my tech sector work I've never been wowed by an Indian or Chinese national literally ever.

https://twitter.com/thecaptain_nemo/status/1849245576141189158

In fact the hallmark to working with these people is where they cut their responsibilities into little slivers and they will ask for your "help" on regularly until you notice you're teaching them how to do their job because their resume is a paper tiger.

Indians and the Chinese have a similar evolutionary strategy as expats, 1 in 20 is genuinely very smart and helps the other 20 pretend to be just as smart.

In light of rumors that Kamala screamed at her campaign manager over the Molly Shannon SNL skit flub during the Al Smith dinner, lets talk a bit about Julie Chavez Rodriguez, manager of the Harris Campaign: 🧵

To start off with, her only interesting quality, and the only reason she's gotten anywhere in life, is that she is latino labor activist Cesar Chavez' granddaughter. The irony of this, is that Chavez' entire struggle was defined by being against illegal migration.

You would think that a hispanic woman in such a prominent position would be some foreign born or 1st generation woman who was groomed from adolescence, like the manchurian candidate county judge of Houston, Lina Hidalgo. But Chavez' roots in America are the late 1800's.
