The gods have always favoured men who are ruthless, men who show no mercy, men who Carry out their duties with a goal, men who are punishers, men who kill for a cause, the gods use them to define life, be a ruthless man.

Ancient Middle East, roughly 1000 BCE. Multiple religions suddenly develop prohibitions against pork. Judaism, Islam, later various Christian sects. The explanation given is hygiene. Pork carries trichinosis. It's "unclean."

But here's the interesting part: Cattle and sheep carry diseases too. Anthrax, brucellosis, various parasites. Yet beef and lamb are deemed clean and acceptable.

The real reason for pork prohibition is economic and political. Pigs are democratic animals. They're easy to raise. Any peasant family can keep a pig, feed it scraps, and have meat for winter. Pigs don't require large grazing lands. They convert waste into protein efficiently.

Cattle and sheep, however, require pasture. Land. Lots of it. Land that must be controlled, owned, managed. Land that concentrates in the hands of those wealthy enough to hold it.

In ancient societies, if everyone can raise pigs, everyone has access to meat. Power disperses. But if meat requires cattle grazing on large estates, meat access becomes controllable.

The priests and rulers who established dietary laws weren't idiots. They understood that pork democratized protein access. A peasant with a pig was independent. A peasant dependent on beef from landlord's cattle was controlled.

The "unclean" designation wasn't about parasites. It was about power.

This pattern repeats through history. Medieval European nobility consumed pork freely while peasants were restricted. Victorian England saw pork associated with lower classes while beef signified wealth and status.

Modern industrial agriculture has inverted some of this. Factory-farmed pork became cheap commodity meat. But the cultural associations remain. Beef is prestigious. Pork is common.

The interesting thing is pork is nutritionally excellent. High in fat, rich in B vitamins, contains all essential amino acids. It's particularly high in thiamine, crucial for metabolism.

But it was shamed, restricted, and prohibited not because it was inferior, but because it was too accessible.

When everyone can access protein, hierarchies flatten. The elites have always understood this. That's why pork was made "unclean" while beef and lamb were sanctified.

Control the meat supply, control the population. If that meat supply is too easy to produce independently, demonize it.

The Beer & Taxes Analogy

10 friends go for beer every week. The bill is ₹10,000.

They split it like a tax system:

- First 4 pay ₹0
- 5th pays ₹100
- 6th pays ₹300
- 7th pays ₹700
- 8th pays ₹1,200
- 9th pays ₹1,800
- 10th (richest) pays ₹5,900

Everyone’s happy until the bar owner gives a ₹2,000 discount.

To stay proportional:

- First 5 now pay ₹0
- 6th pays ₹200
- 7th pays ₹500
- 8th pays ₹900
- 9th pays ₹1,400
- 10th pays ₹4,900

Everyone saves something but the richest naturally saves the most because he paid the most.

Outside, the complaints begin:

- “He saved ₹1,000, I saved only ₹100. Unfair!”
- “The rich get all the benefits!”
- “The poor got nothing!”

The 10th guy gets beaten up.

Next week he doesn’t show up.

The remaining 9 realise they can’t even pay half the bill without him.

Moral:

If you overtax or villainise the rich, they don’t stick around.

And when they leave: the whole system collapses, not just their share.

LONG POST (again): For all the jokers screaming “intel failure”, do you even know what intel looks/sounds like? How it’s collated? It seems some garbage love to throw the word around to sound informed. I’m not going to get into the technicalities of voice, visual, comms, data intel & fusing them.

But look at this 52.110 piece jigsaw puzzle. What’re your chances of success IF THE FINAL PICTURE IS NOT GIVEN TO YOU? Imagine putting this together without knowing what the end product is? That’s why jigsaws are always sold with the final picture in the cover.

Now understand - even with the final picture, each piece in the puzzle illustrated below is just visual intel. Now imagine the complexity of putting this together if radio intercepts, WhatsApp, encrypted signal/telegram, dark web communications were also involved? Where would you start? How would you fuse it?

Each field requires specialised knowledge & in this case dedicated agencies. So why not share data freely with each other? Well because we don’t know where moles are. You share strictly on a “need to know” basis for that exact reason. Mind you there’s other operational security reasons. Suppose a NTRO officer in Delhi puts it together & conveys it to a CRPF field commander in Kashmir. What if said fiend commander is captured & tortured & gives over all the intel shared with him? That’s exactly why sharing is done cagily. Yeah it can and is frequently abused & this is a conundrum nobody has been able to solve comprehensively. Plus people who can read one kind of intel can’t necessarily comprehend other kinds of intel. Worse still whatever is intercepted will have code words & euphemisms taking already complicated jigsaws to the next level (imagine if each piece pictured below didn’t have an image printed on it, but rather had a clue stuck on that had to be peeled off).

This is why on October 7th only one Israeli intel officer read the tea leaves correctly, despite that country’s vaunted intel network. Similarly till the last day of the US deployments in Afghanistan & Iraq, the US continued to suffer near constant attacks, for this exact reason.

Sometimes these attacks will happen even with the best intel - you foil 500-600-700 attacks, but they just have to succeed once. We still don’t know what the intel agencies knew, and when. So spare us this “intel failure” bullshit. It may very well be a spectacular failure of Intel, but we have no pointers as of now till a proper investigation is held. Once we know that there were jigsaw pieces available, then was fusing it together done properly or were mistakes made? That is the threshold for “failure”. A competent asessment gone wrong is not a “failure”. These things are highly stochastic and well beyond the analytical abilities of some low born tea plucker’s daughter and pigsty born mango plucker’s son. Heck people who have multiple phds & patents & years of experience & spectacular past successes fail at this regularly. This is an extraordinarily difficult level of voodoo - not an exact science.

Braying donkeys like Mahua Pagalika Rana Zubair know nothing, pick on catch phrases and throw it around to make them sound informed. If you’ve been patient enough to read till the end of this post, then please ask them to explain what the exact Intel failures here were. Leave alone define a benchmark of “failure”. It’s very easy with the benefit of hindsight, but you’ll see these clowns won’t even be able to explain the alleged failure even with this benefit.

Ancient Greek thinkers like Socrates and Plato hated democratic elections.

They saw democracy as part of an endless cycle of regimes — destined to slip into mob rule.

But Polybius knew how to break the cycle... (thread) 🧵
