Those aren't their team, and those teams are subservient to them, and they have a heavy say in the selection of those who make it to those teams.

Hmm not wanting to beat that dead horse too much... but yea I think the online culture will crucify him for that TFM spat

the intel team is not subservent to the actual seals

So out of character, did we ever really know the real DDJ?

usually they're even higher ranking

but whatever thats besides the point

also unsubbed

and event then its still a team, not an individual. and that's a example

How you dealin with that there Bracholi? Bit of a big move huh?

current discoveries and developments are conceived by groups of men, not singular men. Musk isn't the sole engineer in his company

It's just individuals and they each make choices. The group can't choose anything, it's not real

What does one expect from a lawyer tho?

that is exactly what teamleaders do

You probably think you're making a point, but you're just being contrarian at this point. You can't refute reality.

and in any uncorrupted power structure, the most competent individual of that group usually calls the shots. but they still are all necessary pieces

I just think you're going a bit too hardcore on the individualism

Im definitely more individualist rather than group but there are absolutely cases where the group produces better results and the sum of results by each individual seperately

reality, right

well we'll leave it at that then

Individuals who voluntarily cooperate under the abstraction of a group you're absolutely correct. Change out any member of that abstraction with a less competent member and the output significantly diminishes, and can even hinder the productivity of another individual member cancelling it out.

But, that is an abstraction, and not a real thing.

Think of courage as a commodity

well obviously

Can someone try downloading one of my torrents?

that seems like a given

Like LifeAfterWomen.

I want to see if it actually works.

the same way honor is an abstraction

some people need it, some people have it, very few people have the ability to give it

that was never under any debate from my point of view

its an abstract structure just like a company or government is just a piece of paper

no debate there

Well, after the individual, then the next group is family/clan/company/hierarchy

Depends on what you call it

The ties that bind

Still an abstraction, but one with shared meaning amongst the constituent parts

sure

My point is, you absolutely, even in a small group, maybe especially in a small group, must focus entirely on the individuals within, they are the group

This is why I say nations are bound not to fail, but to enslave, they are anathema to humanity, if we actually consider the individual, and if we consider that the greatest minds have purposefully created our means of destruction to punish us for their own enslavement.

Fun fact, in Australia is is illegal to own a sex doll under 150 cm in height (5 ft) or a flat chested sex doll because your obviously a pedophile if it’s either of those
