https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Pournelle#Pournelle's_iron_law_of_bureaucracy
"...in any bureaucratic organization there will be two kinds of people: those who work to further the actual goals of the organization, and those who work for the organization itself. Examples in education would be teachers who work and sacrifice to teach children, vs. union representatives who work to protect any teacher including the most incompetent. The Iron law states that in all cases, the second type of person will always gain control of the organization, and will always write the rules under which the organization functions."

is that your grandpa

@Charlemagne very nice video on bio-leninism

Thanks man

2020-03-25 16:23:52 UTC  

yes both are very well done

2020-03-25 16:24:16 UTC  

properly contextualizing the articles

2020-03-25 17:51:38 UTC  

I am wondering how conscious it is though. Do the relevant people actually think "where can i get me some super low status people?" -which i doubt - or what are the articulated perspectives/incentives they really have

I also think dismissing all leftist views on morality is not as justified as you portrayed it. Seems like the easy way out. A fundamental drive for the left is wanting to genuinely care for people who need it. Its not entirely about ways to gain power

2020-03-25 18:17:47 UTC  

they share little of our moral axioms

2020-03-25 18:17:56 UTC  

no point in arguing morality with them

2020-03-25 18:18:02 UTC  

they either get it or not
