I'm calling the next stage of the collapse of Western Civilization that we are now entering into "The Perfection of Idiocy".
I believe this new terminology is apt.

If Trump is perfectly reflecting the masses, then we are clearly entering into this stage. In the same vein we could call the years leading up to this stage, "The Approximation of Idiocy".

A few years ago, John described what in my mind is "The Approximation of Idiocy":
John wrote: I believe that what Obama said is that he can't solve a quadratic
equation no matter how much time he has, even with his daughter's
textbook in front of him.

Recall that the quadratic formula contains a square root sign. Could
Obama, or any but 1% of the politicians, be able to answer the
question, "To the nearest integer, what is the square root of 10?" I
doubt it.

I realize that solving quadratic equations is not in the job
description to be president. But I'm making a deeper point. I've
written hundreds, perhaps thousands, of times expressing enormous
contempt for politicians who don't have the vaguest clue what's going
on in the world. I've had a "scorched earth" policy for politicians
in America and in Europe, on the left and on the right, and for
so-called "experts" on CNBC and Bloomberg TV. If I had to pick one
that epitomizes the greatest stupidity of all, it would be Nobel Prize
Winner Paul Krugman.

Obama's remark to Leno really crystallized my thinking on this point.
If he's unable to help his daughter solve a quadratic equation -- even
while sitting with his daughter, with all the time in the world, and
with the quadratic formula right in front of him in his daughter's
textbook -- then how can he have any clue what's going on in the
world?

To understand what's going on in the world, then you have to
understand the difference between cause and effect, between causation
and correlation, as well as simple logical reasoning. All of that
would be well beyond someone who can't figure out how to help his
daughter's algebra homework.

Higgie, you'll recall the above article that I posted in 2006. You
wrote to me at the time that you had no trouble solving Sterman's
system dynamics problem.

So you'll understand how serious the situation is. Sterman's problem
requires no more mathematics than the ability to count to 100. But it
does require the ability to do simple logical reasoning, much simpler
than the logical reasoning that a President would have to do every
day. But most MIT students get it wrong, and many are completely
stumped. It's totally hopeless among mainstream politicians and
economists. No wonder they all sound like idiots, and make decisions
and reach conclusions that reflect their innate idiocy.

This weekend, we have the European leaders in Brussels trying to
figure out how to solve the financial crisis. Can you imagine a
dumber bunch of baboons doing that?

Mathematics is a big part of Generational Dynamics theory, and I
personally don't believe that anyone who can't help his daughter solve
a quadratic equation, or who can't solve Sterman's simple system
dynamics problem, should be trusted to make any decisions more
complicated than whether they want pickles with their hamburgers.

Today we have Gen-Xers with no experience, absorbed with hatred of
Boomers and thus unwilling to learn from the experience of Boomers,
and incapable of anything close to logical reasoning, making
decisions. No wonder history is littered with catastrophes, with the
next catastrophe right around the corner.

I went to see the end stages of socialism, complete with hyperinflation. I wanted to see where Europe and the US are headed.

Wait until the neocons turn on us since they are special, just as they are over there.

In each, the hostile question has two answers: one answer which the audience knows is morally correct, but politically
incorrect, and the other answer which the audience knows is wrong, but politically correct.

Bannon mentioned that this mindset dates back to the Bill Clinton and George W. Bush administrations and Guandolo said during the Clinton administration in the early 1990s, the Muslim Brotherhood published their “strategic plan for North America and then their implementation manual which implements the plan” in order to start “the real forward push to get their plan implemented.” He said those documents were discovered in a 2004 raid of a Hamas leaders’s home in Annandale, Virginia.

The timeline and growth of the dead ring is growing faster than the idiots care to consider.

A wise man on ZH once said Europe and the BRICs would be on fire before America even farted.

Well... they're on fire. Whoever he was his reward awaits him from whom he serves.


While the haves and the have-nots struggle over the division of existing wealth, it is the business of the State to improve itself at the expense of both; it picks up the marbles while the boys are fighting. That has been the story of men in organized society since the beginning.
The more money they print, the harder you have to work. Nietzsche says the more we print money, the poorer we get and the more impoverished people get. You had better start thinking differently. How do you convert your money into an asset.

Yep, we've seen this movie before. Puerto Rico is bankrupt and those who can leave are doing so...to the mainland USA which is about to
follow the same path. When the USA defaults, the rich will fly away to private islands or maybe that Galt's Gulch-style retreat that the Bush
family is rumored to be building in Paraguay, and watch the fun over satellite TV until the power goes out and the feed goes blank. BTW,
this is why any prepper worth his salt checks multiple news feeds. Every day-arrogant idiots who only watch one feed tend to miss
important news.

As a result, were able to grasp two important facts that have eluded today’s Christians.
Bonheoffer warned second as others, and the other they nailed to a tree.

And that is why Jesus was constantly rebuking the Pharisees

“You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.”

If Iraq was the major and critical lesson on the consequences of intervention, Libya was the smaller and less significant lesson that drove it home. The United States did not want to get involved in Libya. Following the logic of the new policy, Libya did not represent a threat to U.S. interests. It was the Europeans, particularly the French, who argued that the human rights threats posed by the Gadhafi regime had to be countered and that those threats could quickly and efficiently be countered from the air. Initially, the U.S. position was that France and its allies were free to involve themselves, but the United States did not wish to intervene.
This rapidly shifted as the Europeans mounted an air campaign. They found that the Gadhafi regime did not collapse merely because French aircraft entered Libyan airspace. They also found that the campaign was going to be longer and more difficult than they anticipated. At this point committed to maintaining its coalition with the Europeans, the United States found itself in the position of either breaking with its coalition or participating in the air campaign. It chose the latter, seeing the commitment as minimal and supporting the alliance as a prior consideration.
Libya and Iraq taught us two lessons. The first was that campaigns designed to topple brutal dictators do not necessarily yield better regimes. Instead of the brutality of tyrants, the brutality of chaos and smaller tyrants emerged. The second lesson, well learned in Iraq, is that the world does not necessarily admire interventions for the sake of human rights.

As a taxpayer we are surrounded by the increasing amount of dead circle enclaved assholes who never will assimilate and the assholes bringing them here its just a career decision founded on the principals of arrogated stupidity. Recently liberals are finding out assholes fit in trenches also and indeed you will find fuck you includes until you convince more liberals that politics is local and you have no defense since you think the calvary is coming to save you.

It will also create stress in the United States both from the political left, which wants a humanitarian foreign policy, and the political right, which defines the national interest broadly. But the constraints of the past decade weigh heavily on the United States and therefore will change the way the world works.

As you can see the Neocons, When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
