Twitter. Twitter never changes. But I suppose one can always try to shed a little light into the darkness. Today I'd like to talk about class composition and politics.
But with a little twist.
Normally when I talk about class, I use historical examples, like the Soviet Union, or medieval Europe. But today, I'd like to settle some discourses surrounding the GOP and its base.
So we're going to talk about modern class politics, the Government Party, and the Worker Party.

Just had an interesting back-and-forth with @rickwilliamscpa, worth a follow. There's a lot of emotion and articles these days about (White) generational wealth and The Great Wealth Transfer to come. A lot of it is horseshit and I'd like to break it down in a short thread.
If you go off of news articles and Twitter, a lot of people are already counting their parent's money. This is a supremely foolish thing to do and basically comes from millennial entitlement and resentment. Most people are not inheriting a damn thing.

Hopefully everyone enjoyed the Pope Head space last night! For anyone who missed it, I'd like to go over the exegesis of the Michael prophecy and the eschatology of the War Scroll again, because it's extremely relevant to the current day and thinking about this conflict.
The War Scroll is one of a few Dead Sea Scrolls dealing with the Archangel Michael and the last days - collectively, we might call this the Book of Michael. It is essentially an expansion on the fourth prophecy of Balaam in Numbers 24, which it quotes as its centerpiece.

It's important to remember that, in those days, Anglo on Jew violence and bigotry was about as common as Anglo on Asian hate crimes are today. You have to contextualize Jewish neuroses given that knowledge.
The point is that the White Boogeyman is an acceptable scapegoat for whatever problems you're actually facing. There was never a basis for these revenge fantasies. Ever.

A lot of you are interested in foreign influence, so I thought I'd walk you through the mechanics of foreign political lobbies by dissecting the most powerful lobby in America... circa 1965.
Let me tell you the story of the rise and fall of the China Lobby.
Back in 1965, AIPAC had just been founded. It was a little grub. Who ran American foreign policy?
The Kuomintang mafia, placed into this position by WASPs and German Jewry.
And this is a story that starts with everyone's favorite Emperor-President, FDR.

Picking up from this thread because I was dissatisfied with my treatment of the Ordeal of Civility itself. Today I will discuss Talmudification, waves of elite culture, and why the Alt-Right is both literally and spiritually a Jewish Reactionary movement.
First, let's get some operating definitions of what is a WASP.
1. Literally White Anglo-Saxon Protestant. This is usually used to denote the bulk of the founding stock population and has a meaning similar to "Amerikaner". This is not a definition I generally use, but is common.

I think it's time to talk about Boba Liberals and the Chinese Ordeal of Civility. But to explain that, and the long, strange history of Chinese-Americans, we have to talk about *why* the Hart-Cellar was passed. Let's start at the beginning.
America's involvement in the Far East begins with one man: John Forbes, founder of the Forbes family. As a teen, he sails to China and is adopted as a son by Prince Howqua, master of the Qing trade monopolies and the wealthiest man in the world. This is fictionalized in Tai-Pan.

I'm sure many of you are already experienced home cooks. You can keep scrolling. I'm going to share my experiences as someone new to home cooking who was always turned off by the idea of meal prepping a week's worth of bland chicken and veggies and the inflexibility of it.
Don't meal prep. If you make a meal and have to reheat it, it often comes out very much degraded. Leftovers are not good. But starting from scratch for everything sucks. What can we do?
Ingredient prep. Ingredient prep is the key to getting passably good food at home.

When people talk about college and the college experience, they often talk past each other. And that's because there's several different college experiences and all differently class-coded.
Before continuing, I assume you've read or are at least familiar with Michael O Church's class ladders essay and Fussell's SES class categories, since I will be using at least those terms in defining the different college experiences.

People may think I'm hyperbolic about the Indian thing, but the top 1% of America is only 1% by definition. That's a subpopulation of 3.3mm. 65,000 H1Bs plus spouses is 4% of that population EVERY YEAR.
This is Canadian levels of replacement.
Unless something is done, everything that is recognizably American elite culture will be utterly swept away in *a single generation*. Whether it's the hidden forested retreat towns, the glittering Hamptons, the ski resorts, the society balls, the social clubs - gone.

This relates to the interminable "stealth wealth"/"grandiose wealth" discourse which I noted yesterday. It's been a while, but it's time for a class thread explaining the material drivers of class cultures and the expressions of luxury.
Not what "stealth wealth". Why "stealth wealth"? The answer is as banal as it is overlooked. Going flashy is totally fucking ruinous. You can't actually live the IG lifestyle unless you're one of tens of thousands of oligarchs on earth.
Let's talk about the use of ethnic client groups and ethnic patronage to gain and hold power, through the life of Artaxerxes III, the last great Achaemenid despot, who Plutarch called a man of exceptional bloodlust, cruelty, and ruthlessness.
Artaxerxes, born Ochus, was not meant to be the Great King, the King of Kings. He had older brothers ahead of him in the succession. But he was a cunning and ambitious man. He used plots and poison to kill his older brothers, making himself heir. His father died of heartbreak.

I think a key difference between being a Millennial and being a Zoomer is that growing up Millennial, you really did believe in all this shit. None of it was a bit, the invincibility and legitimacy of the narrative and the institutions was taken for granted. I loved the myths.
One by one, they've been taken away from me. America was invincible - until 9/11. But then we struck hard, struck hard, struck fast. America was Eagletopia and it could drop a McDonald's right into the desert in a day. Mission accomplished.

I just want to add on as a comment here:
Though the SRs and Mensheviks started the Revolution, the Bolsheviks finished it.
These college kids never know what they're getting into, but it only ends one way. A Napoleon on horseback putting the saber to them.
Here's my thread about the relative class composition of different factions on the Russian Left. Once the rule of law erodes, the Bolsheviks were going to come out on top because they were older, wealthier, and had more men of violence. The SRs were kids.
The Jews of the Netherlands were Sephardic and their presence was infinitely greater in the North because they mainly found their way to New York and joined together with the Old Dutch merchant families and New York colonial elite to form the first New York Society.
The original, far lower intensity intra-Jewish conflict in the US was the Sephardim being annoyed at German Jewish peddlers in the early 19th century. The thing was that basically everyone was a "peddler" back then. The Roosevelts sold sugar.

It's time to talk about the heterogeneity of American Jewry. But to do that, we have to dive into other concepts, which are murkier to me. The previous thread had the benefit of family lore. Luckily, we still have a guide: more family lore.
You, young people, may know him as Curtis Yarvin, weird old guy at Dimes Square parties trying to score art hoe pussy with a mysteriously large fortune. But once upon a time, he went by the name of Mencius Moldbug.
If Gray Mirror is kiddy addies, UR is straight crystal meth.

95% of Americans or more have no idea how their country even runs or what the ruling class looks like. Most of them don't even have a conception of a ruling class beyond this farcical Ralph Lauren model idea invented to sell overpriced sweaters.
America is ruled by what I will call the Tripartite Elite:
Non-Orthodox Jews of Sephardic or German Old Families
Neo-Puritan Norman Americans, which are parodied as the "WASPs" of pop culture
East Asians, especially KMT-Americans
Jews are senior partners to Anglos and Asians.

Is this the part of the discourse where we pretend that Jews are overrepresented in power just because they have high IQs? For the record, they do.
Look, I am an honest man and I always try to be an honest and blunt man. There is a power network that runs America, it is not a pure meritocracy, and unconnected high IQ whites do get shafted. This is just a fact.

January 1st, yet again.
"And now, lest he put out his hand and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever"-
Eternity is a terrible thing indeed. Eternity is a wondrous thing indeed.
People often ask why a loving God might condemn mankind to Hell. This is a misunderstanding, I think. Hell and Heaven are both choices, and Hell is a separation from God. Absent this connection, the love of God is like an unending burning agony.

As we approach the end of the year, I'd like to lay out my thoughts about trends for the coming decade and where the country and the GOP is going.
Batten down the hatches and prepare for the coming storm.
1. GOP Civil War.
This is more or less locked in at this point, and it will be a significant driver of events in the next decade, as internal party conflicts will cause the end of the GOP as a national party. Factional conflicts can no longer be papered over.

Carvana bond yield at 34%
It turns out that shuffling cars around all the time costs more than having a dealership, and you get downstream costs where it takes more employees per sale to close. Logistics and storage expenses per car are much higher for Carvana than Carmax, as is employees per sale.
