Intellectual Embargo

Our supposedly ethnocentric whites often fail to be ethnocentric. They'd rather wave the flag of some middle eastern people, as if that group would ever wave our flag. They wouldn't. If they could push a button and harm us to help themselves, they would. They're not "based."

I don't use the term "based" to refer to outsider groups who are hostile to us or our future.. That's stupid. To me "based" means good for my people. The Dalai Lama saying Europe is for the Europeans? Based. Great guy. Give him a medal.

Reminder, I'm doing my first stream of Disco Elysium today. 7PM EST, it should be pretty interesting.

Part of why telegram exists in the form it does is to make people feel like they have a safe space. It's ~encrypted~, so that means you finally have a place where you can have fun with your friends and even joke about 'Minecraft atrocities' you would never actually consider doing in real life. You feel like you can discuss the hypothetical benefits or problems of actions you wouldn't actually take. But even discussing that action could get you in hot water. And that's the point, they need to make sure there's a place where you feel safe to say those things, so they can catch you doing it there.

Those jokes about minecraft atrocities wont sound so funny when the prosecution is reading it to the jury. You wont be treated the same as everyone else, when they're giving a pass to make similar flippant comments.

Merry Christmas.
