199 GOP 204 Dems

2018-10-12 21:39:42 UTC  

So GOP is doing better?

2018-10-13 00:14:25 UTC  

well yea

2018-10-13 00:14:53 UTC  

threres still like 30 toss ups tho

2018-10-13 12:46:40 UTC  

I googled "realpolitik" and apparently its origins are German not Swedish.

2018-10-13 13:18:26 UTC  

uh no shit lol

2018-10-13 23:10:24 UTC  

New link. If you're not a Fractal Nationalist what the frac are you doing?

That's gonna be a no from me dog

2018-10-13 23:27:51 UTC  

It started yesterday

2018-10-13 23:29:09 UTC  

What exactly would you say you do here? What are your goals and how do you intend to achieve them? I'm offering a solution.

2018-10-13 23:31:57 UTC  

Me? I just listen to Nick's show and enjoy the shit posting in this server, my irl work is certainly not conducted over discord lol

2018-10-13 23:33:10 UTC  

I'm not living in the US but if I were I would have joined my local GOP and be working my way up the ranks after serving for 5-10 years in the military

2018-10-13 23:33:46 UTC  

And I can say that because that's essentially what I'm actually doing in another country

2018-10-13 23:36:51 UTC  

Fair enough. I have other activities as well, but I think this is a unique approach worth trying. If you're not interested there's no need to neg it.

2018-10-13 23:37:25 UTC  

What is it?

2018-10-13 23:37:49 UTC  

All you did was post a server with two members

2018-10-13 23:38:08 UTC  

Normanlord should people join the military for good optics and experience

2018-10-13 23:38:48 UTC  

There's more info higher up will repost

2018-10-13 23:38:52 UTC  

I just don't want to die for Israel

2018-10-13 23:40:04 UTC  

Essentially I think the soviets we're onto something organizationally. They had workers councils which elected members to higher councils. I think that this fractal hierarchical structure may be effective in a context with different founding stock and principles

2018-10-13 23:40:38 UTC  

OP


Bringing the NazBol meme to life. It has occurred to me that one aspect of the Soviet system that I think might have been successful is the soviets (workers councils) themselves. A council would be formed and a leader elected, who would go on to be a member of a higher council. I don't think this way of structuring things has been tried in any other context. It solves a number of problems though. In a democracy, I think there's a huge problem with the size of a consituency. If you want the attention of your representative, your individual vote matters little to them. Also, you can't be personally acquainted with them. I think this structure would work even better with a smaller council. Every effective organization is a hiearchy, and I think building up rather than out is the key to making it work. If you had a group of 5 to 10 people who chose a representative, I think the social cohesion would be high enough to keep that representative responsive. The process is iterative and exponential. Looking at organizations as fractals I think allows for a useful vector of analysis. The branching factor of a hierarchy might be used to compare unlike groups like how in statistics the z score allows you to compare the distributions of different datasets. I think there is a relationship between a smaller branching factor and the effectiveness of the organization. Compare an NGO with a military. An NGO involved perhaps two levels at the least, the executive board and the membership. In a military organization, the ratio is small as I've described. The NGO usually at best can collect donations and get low effort actions done, such as signing a petition. The military organization can get its members in shape and to undertake mortal peril.

I think the Soviet structure could have this benefit. I think if we formed small groups, elected leaders from them who formed groups, and iterated this process we could come up with something pretty spectacular.

@Hektor definitely worth it, it's peak optics in American politics tbh

2018-10-13 23:44:30 UTC  

Another point I have made is that some figures on the alt right rose to their positions of power by being the first ones there

2018-10-13 23:44:33 UTC  

Oh yeah I remember that

2018-10-13 23:44:43 UTC  

I told you it's corporatism

2018-10-13 23:45:48 UTC  

My understanding of that term is that it's when the government and industry rule cooperatively

2018-10-13 23:46:08 UTC  

But that's beside the point

2018-10-13 23:46:43 UTC  

Whatever you call it there's no right wing organization I'm aware of that has ever had that structure. I'm open to counter examples.

2018-10-13 23:47:21 UTC  

Specifically small sub dunbars number groups of people who elect their leaders iteratively into a functioning hierarchy

2018-10-13 23:53:39 UTC  

Well that structure, generally doesn't last long without reverting to essentially a system of dynastic succession

2018-10-13 23:53:49 UTC  

The GAA in Ireland is run like that

2018-10-13 23:54:18 UTC  

@NormanLord From your perspective

2018-10-13 23:54:35 UTC  

Where did the "Irish are not white meme" come from?

2018-10-13 23:54:38 UTC  

Not that there's anything wrong with dynastic succession but that's what it devolves into

2018-10-13 23:54:47 UTC  

Gimme a sec to reflect on that

2018-10-13 23:55:55 UTC  

I guess just as a general dehumanisation tactic

2018-10-13 23:56:21 UTC  

Tho from my recollection it started as a half joke towards the English at their attitude towards Ireland
