Because the West is the best.
Peri-dot.

[Daniel Foubert 🇵🇱🇫🇷 @d_foubert]

I am a Western supremacist.

The West is the greatest and most advanced civilization that has ever existed. Everything we import is inferior.

From Greek philosophy to Enlightenment science, Western thinkers formalized logic, developed mathematics, and rejected appeals to custom or hierarchy as sources of truth. This rationalist tradition laid the groundwork for modern science, engineering, and governance.

Centering the individual rather than the group enabled the West to develop unique legal and political frameworks. Roman law introduced legal personhood; later, thinkers like Locke and Montesquieu advanced the idea of inherent rights. The result was the emergence of constitutional states, civil codes, and democratic institutions based on individual consent and accountability.

The systematization of knowledge gave the West a long-term innovation advantage. Medieval universities, the printing revolution, and the scientific academies of the 17th and 18th centuries created a pipeline of cumulative learning. Peer review, replication, and classification (e.g., Linnaean taxonomy, periodic table) enabled continuous refinement across generations.

Scientific abstraction allowed nature to be modeled, predicted, and manipulated. From Galileo’s mechanics to Maxwell’s electromagnetism, from Pasteur’s microbiology to Crick and Watson’s discovery of DNA structure, the West turned observation into technology. These breakthroughs directly led to industrialization, modern medicine, and applied chemistry.

The codification of law into universal, abstract systems enabled scale. Roman law, canon law, the Napoleonic Code, and English common law introduced principles like equality before the law, contract enforcement, and property rights. These legal structures became essential for commerce, administration, and state formation across continents.

Western empires imposed institutions rather than just extractive control. They introduced censuses, railway grids, modern bureaucracies, court systems, and educational models. These weren’t just instruments of dominance — they replaced pre-existing structures and left lasting administrative frameworks still visible in many postcolonial states.

Abstract finance made capital scalable and mobile. The Dutch and British pioneered joint-stock companies, stock exchanges, and marine insurance. The Industrial Revolution was fueled by these tools, which allowed unprecedented pooling of risk and investment. Central banking and credit markets followed, enabling global economic coordination.

Applying scientific knowledge to mechanical systems led to overwhelming technological supremacy. Western societies developed steam power, electrical grids, internal combustion engines, airplanes, rockets, and digital computers. These technologies transformed production, warfare, and daily life — with no comparable parallel elsewhere.

Western languages became the default codes of global exchange. French ND then English dominated scientific publishing, aviation, diplomacy, and software protocols. This is not due to cultural preference, but because the West created the institutions — universities, regulatory agencies, technical standards — that defined modern professional and scientific activity.

The global adoption of Western models is what distinguishes it from all other civilizations. Its principles — legal uniformity, individual rights, institutional science, scalable finance — have been implemented worldwide. Even regimes opposed to the West use its tools to govern, trade, and wage war. No other civilization has achieved that level of structural universality.

@LgMetalFerret @sfliberty Capitalism can't exist in a place with laws, huh?

Yeah. Just tap out.

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

@terryrus99 @EricFromSTL @sfliberty 1) Which failures are the fault of the socialist?

2) Of course the Americans undermined Socialists in the Cold War. The Socialists had picked a side. It was the anti-American side.

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

@LgMetalFerret @sfliberty Is that because the Communists were so popular? Or because the Soviets were so influential? Or some other reason?

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

@CyberKitten6 @NoDogmaNoDogma @libsoftiktok They have new leadership. They're trying to get things right.

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

@NoDogmaNoDogma @libsoftiktok They have new leadership. And they're doing a pretty good job.

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

@JackPosobiec Sinners is actually a good movie. It's not about killing white people. And CV is a catharsis. Barely a movie.

“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

@slocumfortexas @MichaelDell Never heard that term. What does it mean?

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

@LiberalMut Incitement must be credible and immediate. This is nether. It's just ham-handed and crude.

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

@astheravencalls @bumbadum14 Agreed. Looks like Batman meets Birth of a Nation.

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

@Anc_Aesthetics @bumbadum14 With #CitizenVigilante they're looking for successful art. While you're looking for a successful weapon. You're both right. We need both. We got a 1974 AMC Gremlin.

Goes where you want. But it ain't quality and it ain't pretty.

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

He should never again see the light of day.

[DNI Tulsi Gabbard @DNIGabbard]

Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.

Murderous migrants beheading innocent people in their home town is what’s making people angry, not “social media”!

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

@hiksov @porterstansb It's the ideological saturation of the population. Not the race. Grow up.

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

@porterstansb I was listening hopefully when you said it wasn't racist.

Then. We don't want justice for murder committed by somebe black? You can't be serious.

Crawl back into your hole and stop making it worse.

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

@grok @Crapsocialism @BlockClubCHI @grok, compare the murder numbers by weekend for summer 2026 against summer 1995, and summer 2012

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

@wil_da_beast630 Why anyone who hadn't already been explicitly told about the kind of backlash the would face??? Wasn't this fallout completely predictable?

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

@ApligianC @bluelivesmtr Don't let this crook fool you. She is not a republican. She is just a crook looking to get into political office again. Nobody here in Illinois is trying to avenge a stone on election in illinois. Those problems happened in other states. But not here. She's a liar.

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

@bluelivesmtr There is nobody in Illinois pointing to a stolen election in this state. This is a very purple State at best and more likely, blue. She's singing pretty songs for the Republicans of Georgia to be fooled by. She's just lying about this whole thing.

[Byron Rivers @BeeJiggity]

@bluelivesmtr Illinois Republican here. You're making a huge mistake because this woman is not a republican. She is a liar and a crook who just wants to try to get elected. She has no idea what she's talking about when it comes to conservative issues or politics. She's just running away.
