Normal people are being socially successfully meeting up in real life.

Are we dropouts, or simply antinormie?

'"Capitalism" is fundamentally just the free exchange of goods and services.'

Markets are what markets be. Trying to make them more than that seems to fall down flat, as does denying the monopoly problem.

To get idiots out of your way, you need a culture that values non-idiocy. Otherwise, idiots take over, and you get a fallen empire and thirdworlding like is happening in the West now.

I would love to get back into pirate radio, but if the audience is not there, it is simply self-stimulus.

"Social media" in the sense of scrollers I think invites the type of drive-by commentary that IRC was famous for. I never liked that kind of socializing or interaction.

Maybe this place could be improved, but there's a lot of circularity. Substack right now is the most useful resource, and Twitter is somewhere in there, although I think the algo is too aggressive although thankfully not as insane as on Meta products.

It is very hopeful, but the fact is that larger establishments like say the Khans rolled up the little city-states rather handily. History took a turn for a reason.

We have a friendly banter here, but when clarity occurs, it must spread like AIDS in the black metal scene.

And thus, down the demotism trail it goes again.

There are no hands-free systems that work.

Or at least the east coast was... damn Yankees were Irish all along.

All definitions boil down to that at some level. Quantizing simply makes a target that is gamed. You recognize quality in your daily life, so clearly you are aware of the meaning of the term.

Not analogous when you are talking about connected events.

This is like trying to separate the Civil War from Tammany Hall (or FDR from Tammany Hall).

Or refinancialize things, which is more likely the case. They are not personally popular; people simply buy their products, especially the paper instruments.

A pale imitation of feudalism, which was much better.

It's a diversity void that was once a great city.

Or a proxy for socializing, as bars and churches tend to be.

I think we cannot separate any part of that era from any other. The West rapidly became owned by the winners of that war.

The problem of idiot aristocrats is way overstated by its critics.

Most were quite good, as history shows. The West rose under aristocracy, fell under democracy.

I wish we had an aristocracy, but we have its opposite.

Therein is the root of all of our problems...

Similar to quality, it means those of the greatest competence.

Expanding on this: anarcho-capitalism has no system at all in place. It cannot act as an organized society. Instead, you have a group of investors, each trying to protect his own pile.

I'm thinking of that TV show with Kelsey Grammer about the bar where everyone played a self-parodic stereotype.
