Tired: write in the morning.
Wired: write when hungry. #dmutc
Tired: marketplace of ideas. Ideas are a dime a dozen!
Wired: marketplace of observations. Actionable!
Aspired: marketplace of inferences. Valuable and frustrates the evil people :-) #dmutc
Amateur groups can maintain safety & good order in surprisingly tough & demanding circumstances.
Consider the Cannoball Run: the unofficial, unsanctioned one stayed safe for over a century.
The awesome power of a group carefully choosing participants. #dmutc

tired: propaganda lies about what to do, we need do the exact opposite.
wired: propaganda lies about where the inherent natural division is.
we shall not break off with people that are natural friends & allies, we shall not ally with opponents. #dmutc
group of people coalesces on the internet; they work together furthering their goals.
then they meet up in a public venue, and they put photos & names in their profiles.
their disposition changes: they are no longer *of* the internet. they have lost something valuable. #dmutc
>there's a lot of importance placed on ceremonies being completed properly
yes. that's their midwittery in action.
they don't understand the processes they inherited to steward
so they just want to do the same that, *according to lore*, was done by their predecessors. #dmutc
"He who has more pays more taxes" makes for nice headlines. "The business that is more efficient and cost-effective gets preferential tax policy" makes for good economy.
One of ways taxes *consistently* work differently than what the headlines would like us to think. #dmutc
Ghettoization of academia: when the social constructivist "it takes a village to raise a child" mindset replaced the original "it takes a fraternity to raise a peer" mindset. #dmutc
The supposed "problem" you have observed is in actuality a *protocol*.
You can't "solve" a protocol, you can only replace it with a better one. #dmutc
People balk at your novel idea? People don't like novel ideas.
Create an environment that makes your idea all but obvious and inevitable. People enjoy supporting obvious & inevitable ideas. #dmutc
Naming things is like taking a chisel to them. #dmutc
There's a strong, and under-explored, connection between language and ability to manually manipulate things. #dmutc
The HR department would abort you if given half a chance. #dmutc
We have the concept of having inherited our rights from our forefathers.
But we lack the concept of *losing* those same rights in certain circumstances when continuation with forefathers is willfully and purposefully negated. #dmutc
"Sponge-radiator organization": vacuums up and dissipates the will and the drive of its members. The mirror opposite of leadership. #dmutc
One of my deep seated assumptions that I yet have to un-learn is that "when we win, we'll be able to stop talking politics".
Better: when we win, we'll *enjoy* talking politics. #dmutc
Among the comfortable lies we tell ourselves, "only groups react predictably to carefully orchestrated influences - individuals are quite unpredictable". Oh if only people were that resilient against propaganda... #dmutc
The underappreciated creativity of maintaining steady routine in the face of ever-varying circumstances. #dmutc
Working frequently with journalists makes it quite predictable how they'll re-write source material. Masters of it are able to create a true statement or whole document that gets *predictably* made into untrue & misleading article or TV bit.
Politicians & media editors. #dmutc
the most effective lies in the media are the lies of omission
artificially producing unknown-unknowns #dmutc
