“Strategy builds systems, but it depends on them as well.
“Every successful system serves a purpose.
“It might not be the purpose it says it serves, and it might not seem to make sense, but if the system sticks around, that’s because the system is delivering on a promise.

“Religion is the means through which the order and the peace, which is created by the first murder, gradually turns into a cultural system. Humanity is the child of religion. In a way, religion is like the placenta which protects the newborn and gets discarded when he’s really born.” —René Girard

The desire for recognition from others is a trap. It makes you dependent and undermines freedom. Being disliked becomes a sign you are living freely.

They lied to you, then took the money you gave them and used it to pay more people to lie to you. I’m a bit suspicious of those who were on the payroll realizing only *now* that the Dems are in on the GOP con.

The surest way to bring the right into lockstep is to conjure a menace—preferably one inflated beyond recognition, or plucked from pure imagination. The ease with which they rally to the cry says less about the threat and more about the comfort they find in rehearsing the role of the eternal victim.
This is the exact same shit Republicans do inventing a reason to "feel unsafe."

Finally getting to The Heat Will Kill You First, by Jeff Goodell. He wrote it solely in Fahrenheit. This is immediately following me finishing The Perfectionists, which ended with the history of the development of the metric system. The US adherence to imperial was always a sign of its time to come.

Danielle Smith wants to see Alberta double its oil production. The separatists she keeps catering to want to see it increase even higher. They're both delusional—and deliberately avoiding the China-shaped elephant in the room.
Alberta will never double its oil production
Both Danielle Smith and the separatists she keeps enabling want to see Alberta double its oil production. Spoiler: It won't be Mark Carney or the Liberal government that ends up stopping them.
