@TheRuddyBoyz @howlinghowler_ Rabbinic Judaism was a counter movement against the early Christian Church. Their temple was destroyed and they were hemorrhaging followers.

[JD™ @LostMyHats]

I’m blocked, so I can’t respond, so I’ll do it here:

1. The Old Testament used and cited by Jesus and the Apostles, with rare exception (1 in 25 for Jesus) was the Greek, not Hebrew. This includes when Jesus taught in the Synagogue (Luke 4).

Imagine that: Greek was even the official Bible of the Synagogue. So anyone alleging you need to know Hebrew to know the Word of God is contradicting 1st century Rabbis who believed the Septuagint perfectly captures the divine meaning of Sacred Writ and trusted the words on its pages.

2. The language spoke in Israel is not Hebrew. It is Temu-Hebrew.

It is a completely contrived tongue, a made-up Frankenstein language wearing Hebrew skin. It’s a loose liturgical Hebrew vocabulary attached to a European engine, built in the early 20th century, with European syntax (Russian, German, Yiddish), with thousands of loan words directly from those European languages, Slavic pronunciation, a complete lack of actual Hebrew phonology. It is so far from actual Hebrew that a 1st century Pharisee would not be able to carry a conversation with Benjamin Netanyahu.

It’s a garbage tongue, a living, breathing metaphor for a European people group who migrated to Palestine in the 20th century to celebrate to cosplay as ancient Israelites. It’s the Pig-Latin of world languages; vaguely reminiscent of a language, but isn’t. It is, to Hebrew what Pidgin is to English.

Don’t even get me started on their ridiculous, made up surnames.

“Yeah the government actually organizes the black teenager riots”

This is one of those things so ridiculous, so on-the-nose absurd, that normies and older people literally won’t believe you when you say it. Reality increasingly sounds like “right-wing propaganda”

The reason women like this are so insistent on men getting therapy is because they see men as defective women and because they see therapy as an avenue to power, because they already know the therapist will just try to manipulate the man into neurotic leftism

So glad you asked - here's how we win:

The machinery of narrative control (by which managerial liberal regimes were previously steered) has been shattered, which means that *no one* can coordinate & steer the system

This means that we cannot coordinate to dislodge the incumbents - but it also means that incumbents cannot coordinate to steer around any of the crises that the system is shambling into

Those crises, in rough order of urgency:

1. The fiscal crisis: the system cannot prevent the bleed of internal looting & devaluation of currency

No political will exists to arrest this process, & by 2035 the debt will equal the value of all US equities - the govt will have effectively "eaten" the stock market

Unclear at what point the bond markets will puke - but if a thing can't go on forever, it won't

2. The security crisis: Managerial liberal states can no longer marshal the political will to fight and win wars

So when US hegemony is tested, USG either has to withdraw (emboldening the next challenger, & breaking the freedom of the seas on which the global economy rests) or try to fight from beyond visual range at overwhelming expense to avoid casualties

So the security crisis accelerates the fiscal crisis, & the fiscal crisis accelerates the security crisis

3. The demographic crisis: The compact between young & old has broken, & the young are "quiet quitting" the arrangement, withdrawing from family life & its precursors either by choice or by circumstance

The burden of a growing population of the old is falling on a dwindling population of the young, which makes it still harder to form families - a positive feedback loop

Each of these crises is a structural consequence of headless managerial liberalism - which means that decline & fragmentation will continue until the pieces are small enough to be capturable by human agency

So, how do we win?

By rebuilding human institutions capable of long-term thinking & coordinated action, which can navigate the coming volatility in ways managerial states cannot - & which adopt responsibilities that the state abdicates as it sheds capacity

It's not clear how deep that fragmentation has to progress before recapture becomes possible, but a) fragmentation and decline are certain, and b) the people who are better organized ahead of time will be in the best position to pick up the slack

On the specific question of revitalizing blighted inner cities:

The federal government currently props up corrupt & decaying state & municipal governments, & enforces the civil rights regime that prevents the healing of urban blight

If 2028 goes our way, we may get cracks in that system sooner, with Trump's stand-down of civil rights enforcement becoming permanent law, & parasitic Leftist institutions catching the brunt of austerity measures in the 2030s

Otherwise the state may have to gradually lose the *capacity* to enforce such directives before anything can be rebuilt

That way is harder, messier, & takes longer - which is good, because we'll need all the time we can get to build for it

Either way, the future belongs to human institutions, & we win by building them

@BreeSolstad My mother is Catholic. I invite her often to Divine Liturgy. There's a lot of hurtful things happening and the Orthodox certainly aren't perfect. But yikes.

In 2023, Judge Christa Daily gave Thomas Meyer, who confessed to having thousands of sexual abuse images of young children, to 100 hours of community service and a class on why child porn is bad.

She gave Shiloh Hendrix 200 hours and a $1k fine.

[Hughes de Payens 🇻🇦✝️📿 @hdpayens]

Around 150 AD, a pagan Roman official named Diognetus asked a strange question. He wanted to know what these Christians actually were.

They had no temples. No altars. They refused to swear by the genius of the emperor. They gathered before dawn and sang to Christ as if he were God. Yet they served in Roman armies, worked in Roman trades, and lived in Roman cities.

Pagan neighbors hated them. They were accused of atheism for refusing the gods. They were accused of incest for calling each other brother and sister. They were accused of cannibalism for what happened at their secret meals.

But they did something Rome had never seen. They rescued abandoned babies.

The Letter to Diognetus is one of the earliest explanations of Christianity written for outsiders. And its answer reframes everything the modern world thinks it knows about the early Church.

A thread.

The Christians used to build their churches on top of pagan holy sites. We need to build startup incubators and machine shops on top of the ruins of every single public school in America.
