We just need to become mean and cruel enough to outsiders, en masse, to cause them to flee.

Niceness is a terrible trait to have if you want to have genetic survivors in the future.

I am not very nice. Strangely, I am very polite.

They already dislike us, that wouldn't change anything. In fact they derive pleasure from being socially persecuted

what truly needs to end, is first of all to allow them entrance, and secondly to give them free money

@Hagel I agree that those steps are also necessary.

At its core, you're more right than I was

@Hagel By being mean and cruel, I mean being _really_ mean and cruel.

It's the culture of niceness that has led to all of the above

@Hagel I'm talking about a level of cruelty that I can't really get into here on a discord server.

Being cruel is a good method against muslims, because what we consider cruel is their norm. That doesn't scare them

Vlad the Impaler knew this. He killed them in painful and terrible ways

At the very least, my idea would detonate rahowa early, while we still have the numbers to win.

Yes.

I would have liked him if he didn't sometimes please his hunger dishonourably on his own people

He always looked for an excuse, but sometimes, they were weak

memes are sure the fuck not going to save us, nor good "optics."

Most empires collapse due to a number of causes, most often the combination of resource destruction, disease, and natural disaster, and political misstep in combination with military invasion

I still honour him for maintaining his own identity though despite the attempts of his kidnappers

see persia , also see Aztec

The Aztec empire seemed to be on the decline, honestly

Everyone hated them and despite their power and wealth, they made no philosophical or technological advancements

They just wasted a bunch of people by sacrificing them

They were like Rome, except they didn't even assimilate knowledge through conquest

the aztecs were badass

(and, of course, they allowed for loose control of outer provinces, since rebellions led to more sacrifices)

also see mongol breakaway states for longstanding heterogonous empires ruled by foreigners

one of the most brutal civilizations of all time

Hagel, what is the ideal demographic, domestic, and foreign policy for a long standing empire

Well

First of all, I have to say that a good policy can only emerge from and be maintained by a good population

I can give you a bunch of laws, which would be great if everyone followed them

but that's not practical nor realistic

That's why I focus more on how to improve the population itself

There should be some kind of order which places everyone according to their nature, and which doesn't mistreat the peasants. Every one has a place in the order, except for rapists, cleptomaniacs, etc. However, not everyone gets to breed equally. The best should be encouraged to breed more.
This order has to be organic and natural. It has to be consonant with the spirit and fundamental nature of the people.

Foreign policy should be isolationist

raiding only if necessary
Helping neighbors who are alike is not bad, if it can be afforded, if this help can actually get them on their feet. Meaning, there's no point in helping Africans, because they're just going to revert as soon as the help stops coming. In fact it is evil, because it inflates their population, which then leads to starvation and suffering when the breast is removed
