ascii_field: in most people's understanding of the profession - he was a soldier.
mircea_popescu: and i would suspect he was never intimate with a woman, either.
ascii_field: d the detail of our lives is just as sordid and degrading as it could be in prison, let alone in a bourgeois army.’ Many other things reinforced this impression later; for instance, the boredom and animal hunger of trench life, the squalid intrigues over scraps of food, the mean, nagging quarrels which people exhausted by lack of sleep indulge in.'
ascii_field: made of some kind of polished stone so slippery that it was all you could do to keep on your feet. In addition they were always blocked. Now I have plenty of other disgusting things in my memory, but I believe it was these latrines that first brought home to me the thought, so often to recur: ‘Here we are, soldiers of a revolutionary army, defending Democracy against Fascism, fighting a war which is about something, an

Latrines are an overworked subject in war literature, and I would not mention them if it were not that the latrine in our barracks did its necessary bit towards puncturing my own illusions about the Spanish civil war. The Latin type of latrine, at which you have to squat, is bad enough at its best, but these were
mircea_popescu: anyway, it is strictly possible soldier actually believes in the war and his side. there's nothing wrong with this.
thestringpuller: That is, a soldier's only purpose is to "complete the mission".
thestringpuller: I was under the impression a soldier is nothing more than a political tool.
ascii_field: soldier is in no sense the example of 'man impervious to wire'
mircea_popescu: the notion of freedom you carry most closely approximates death.
ascii_field: so he is really still boxed in by 'barbed wire' - just not the wire you see in front of him
mircea_popescu: more importantly - soldier doesn't havfe the choice of "i'm too good for this"
ascii_field: this works because infantry is a machine (yes) not man. i.e. soldier hasn't the choice of 'i don't feel like it'
mircea_popescu: like the people who "stayed in statal employment" cca 1992.
mircea_popescu: you understand this ? it doesn't DO anything. it's there so the fucktards can BLAME IT for who they are.
mircea_popescu: it is there to JUSTIFY one's own lassitude, even as that becomes socially inacceptable.
ascii_field: barbed wire largely works on the expectation.
mircea_popescu: why aren't you all the things you aren't doing, like putting your cock in the mouth of girl sitting across the table ?
mircea_popescu: be worried when no barbed wire and guns, like the us 60s.
ascii_field: if the resource is not actually scarce
ascii_field: who prevents the utilization ?
ascii_field: thing is, a situation like this is impossible without barbed wire & guards (in one form or another)
mircea_popescu: nevertheless, in the "value is what people want" paradigm, the former is incredibly poor.
mircea_popescu: notably, the 10k fuckholes aren't "more valuable" in either scenario. they ARE however LESS UTILIZED in the second.
ascii_field: so this is more like the 'pay' you pay in auschwitz, work until you drop with the hope that you get moved down, and not up, in the chimney queue ?
mircea_popescu: they... just... pay.
ascii_field: to whom do they pay ?
mircea_popescu: 3k people pay 1.5mn each per fuckhole, have no time to do anything but run arround trying to service the 2.8mn they owe
mircea_popescu: suppose they're 10k american fuckholes. 11k dudes want one, on which basis 100k more dudes are made to think they want one
mircea_popescu: ah. suppose you have 10k soviet fuckholes, and 11k dudes want one. 10k dudes pay 10k per fuckhole each, and spend the time alternatively fucking the hole and laughing at the 1k.
ascii_field: how does it work? politburo hoards all the womenz ?
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: 'And it is because the real estate prices in Beijing etc have made it so that young women are unaffordable.' << what does this mean?
ascii_field: it is another where it is encrusted with so many mines, of such variety, that you can hardly make out what the thing was (a bridge? a railroad ? what?)
mircea_popescu: there isn't a logic in that sense

ascii_field: this only works when there is a signal.
mircea_popescu: but if he simply asks another idiot and averages the two out, he reduces the error 3x
mircea_popescu: the experience he discusses (afaik this is amply documented) is the strange situation that if an idiot guesses, he's off by X, if he "tries" to think about it, ie, meditates on the answer and why it could be wrong he improves the guess (reducing he errror)
