I think doing a one-time purge in the population, deliberately taking out the worst 25% of society, and making it clear to anyone who survives that if society goes downhill again there can and will be another purge, that would keep people in line for at least a few decades.
and if the RIGHT is ever convinced violence is acceptable, they will make antifa look like infants
i think thats unlikely
if you use force once
you have to constantly apply force
people need to be scared artifically.
to maintain the effect
EMP
take everything offline
the french revolution culled their worst
and yet
make people dependednt on earch other
the worst were up and running a soon as napoleon was deposed
It turned France into a superpower for a bit, an envy of the world, and then they started importing the worst of other nations and ended up right back at square one.
if peopel coorperate they survive. if they dont? well they don't
in any case, it would purge the bad apples
france was a superpower piggybacking off of napoleons genius
lo
it had little to dop with their own government
and in fact
the only theater they even saw success was in europe
they faced reversals overseas
losing their most important colonies
colonies were not important to those at tthe top outside of status
I think there needs to be a hard selection criteria for any purge: A combination of intelligence testing, behavioral history, and economic productivity. Basically, if you're stupid, aggressive, and poor you get taken out. Pretty much everyone else would live as long as they don't interfere.
just another way to puff out your chest and convince your enemies you are to BIG to attack
that is impractival and elitiest
you sound like those in the deep state
thats kinda a shitty way to go dude
besides, those are the problem people
Colonies = Send a large chunk of your population overseas, where they're no longer at home to defend the motherland and instead you now have twice as much area to defend.
Would help if the colonies weren't a financial drain, but most of them cost more than they were worth.
too much brains not enough common sense
remove the aggressive people and you have a pacifist and weak people
remove people with low economic productivity
they tend to be the once convinced just being smarter will ensure victory
history proves otherwis
and yourepunishing people who probably just had some bad luck in business
Aggressive people are fine as long as they're intelligent.
It's the trifecta assholes that I want to remove: Stupid, angry, and poor.
If you fit all three categories you're taken out. If you fit two, you're given a deeper evaluation. Meeting just one of those won't get you killed.
i agree with luci on this
the WORST you can do i spascify a population
