oppurtunistic predators 4 of 4


OPPORTUNISTIC PREDATOR 4

Most of the governmental predation towards its citizens was disguised and excused as the price for belonging to the tribe.  I’d say, up to about FDR.  After that, as the Depression forced us firmly into the central bankers money economy, the tribal nation state turned into more of a group against group dynamic.  Divide and conquer.  You can’t say for certain that the draft in World War II was as largely accepted as they claim in the State written history books, but I think we could guess that if everyone was so enthused about fighting Das Hun as a way to get back at Japan attacking us ( as if, dude.  Just because Germany was silly enough to declare war on us doesn’t mean we had to do much more than patrol our shores and equip Uncle Joe’s troops-there was empire building afoot and I’d be curious how many of our citizens would have denied participating if given a voice or a choice ) than a draft wasn’t in fact necessary.  And you certainly can’t point at how evil Germany was because it killed the Jews.  FDR certainly was aware of the issue and constantly betrayed and ignored the genocide.  HELLLOOOOO!!!  Empire building going on, not a moral crusade.

*

That was the end of our nation, if it in fact wasn’t in 1861.  Yet the WWII era propaganda is STILL pushed and prodded on the citizens.  Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11, but you must support our troops because they are protecting our freedom over there.  Turn in your fellow citizen for anti-patriot activity-which of course is defined as anything the government does or says being disagreed with.  You, my fine feathered friend, are victim to the Monkey Mind.  You are so desperate for belonging and status that you swill from a tankard of toxic liquid offal, loudly thank your server and plead for another serving.  We are ALL like that in our society.  A few socioeconomic groups, a few malcontents, the criminal classes who are denied participation regardless of desire, they retain the Lizard Brain.  Now, here is where it gets interesting from a survival point.  We are ALL Opportunist Predators.  As I said, it is hard wired in our brain.  Those living completely off of the Monkey Mind believe themselves to be above such primitive behavior, but all they do is transfer their behavior from outright physical violence to status jockeying pseudo-violence. 

*

During the die-off, ALL of us will be acting badly.  I personally will have no qualms about helping the overpopulation problem, nor will it bother me to journey to distant lands and take what I wish by violence.  I don’t want to be a complete dingus about it.  No torturing the poor bastards-that is just rude ( the exception will of course be leaders who condone that practice against my tribe ).  If I don’t plan on taking slaves, I’m not going to turn out the victims to die of exposure.  A swift mercy killing is better.  That kind of thing.  I’m not going to pretend that I’m a swell guy that will huddle defensively away from civilization.  In Reality Land, you must either be strong, or be food.  I shan’t be food, and if that irritates your sensibilities I apologize.  That is just the way it is. 

*

But if you are too attached to a Monkey Mind paradigm, you will not have the same response time to a changing world.  You will have a higher probability of dying.  You don’t have to go Full Viking Mode and glory in pillaging distant lands, worshiping gods who encourage such behavior, but you also can’t be dismissive of threats, nor can you challenge such threats non-violently.  It seems to me that the typical survivalist attitude is to leave everyone alone as long as they return the favor.  Most likely, you have no choice as you are surrounded by millions of densely packed urban dwelling scumbag Yuppies.  A low profile is safer.  But that leaves you reactive.  The defense, while necessary, can only supplement a better offense.  Get.  Away.  From.  People.  As many as you can, anyway.  If you are too far away you never evolve past a defensive hermit.  Too many around you and you don’t own enough ammunition. 

*

Another survivalist failing is to assume a monkey mind recovery.  The valiant patriots gather their semi-automatic armed armies and smite the evil government forces.  As I keep saying, there will be no recovery.  Dark Ages following soil degradation last centuries.  It is the only way the soil fertility recovers.  But the main mistake, as far as our discussion here, is that the patriots think they can trust others.  A lot of others.  That is monkey mind crap.  Humans are-what?  Opportunistic predators.  You will be betrayed or used or abused.  Only your tribe can be trusted, and your tribe ain’t three states away.  I don’t care if they want to smite the same enemies.  They will still turn on you at the first-what?  Opportunity!  This stuff isn’t difficult, just never discussed.  Morality and cultural norms are specific to your tribe only.  All other are to be preyed upon.  You might not think that, but others do.  Stop thinking your frantic search for an electronic tribe can be carried over into the collapse.  It can’t, not safely ( by e-tribes, of course I’m referring to our blogger tribes.  They are not tribes-they are electronic book clubs where discussions of mutual interest are conducted ).

*

Leave the monkey mind Machiavellian intrigues to the wife.  That is what she is good at.  You must be a warrior with a lizard brain, so as to be a better fighter.  Those idiots on The Walking Dead?  Perfect example of focusing on monkey mind crap during battle.  Do you know why females shouldn’t be in a raid ( I tried to watch the series “Vikings” on Amazon streaming.  O-Em-Friggin-Gee!!  The historical inaccuracies aren’t enough, we need a Linda Hamilton “shield maiden”? )?  The war band must be bonded, and practiced in a Lizard Brain mode of operation ( more attuned to primitive dangers ).  Females are more attuned to social dangers.  Besides all the obvious physical issues as well as the mental ones.  Our society is so out of touch with the Lizard Brain thinking we describe war through a Monkey Mind prism.  Don’t you be the same.

  2. I remember reading Zane Gray and being surprised by his anti war stance.

  3. "What Makes the Grass Grow?"
    "Blood! Blood! Blood!"
    "What do we do for a Living, Ladies?"
    "Kill! Kill! Kill!"

    The Fantasy sited above is correct in that the thing that makes Fertile Soil is Carnage, Shit and Death, stacked Deep.

    That is why Farmers plow under the Old Plants at the end of Harvest, and the Material Plowed under "Enriches" the Soil, so Crops can grow again next year.

    So, during the PODA, we (those of us who survive, anyway) will go back to Ferilizing the soil the same way our great-grandparents did. With "Oranic" Matter.

    That is another reason societies take sooo looong to recover after a collapse. Because after scaling back living things, there are less living things bleeeding, shitting and dying, to replenish the soil, so no "surplus".

    Nothing lives, without something else dying, sort of restating the law of physics that Energy cannot be Created, it can only change form.

    Sorry guys, i don't make the laws, just because i know 'em.

    1. This is why human battles should be with hands and knives and shields, on farmland. No chemical/explosives poisoning the land. Next planting will have good harvest, and the farmer gets rich picking up the metal implements of war for re-sale to the survivors.

    2. Didn't we talk about this before? The battlefield should be for fodder, not direct to human food. Or, alternately, allowed to fallow and then cover crop.

    We all know to whom you referring to above.

  5. Ok... before I start... you've got great hair. Personally I have to use "product" (I start by using parentheses to complicate the message and require re-reading run on right?) Im guilty of all you rant against. Still... I daily ATTEMPT to read your stuff. I rarely let an opportunity pass.

    1. If you are "attempting" you are working too hard. Relax, open your mind, wallow in my brilliance, them awaken and rejoice.

  6. Great post Mr Dakin, People really don't understand how brutal and bloody a big sheeple die of will be. Not all the sheeple will have the good grace to quietly starve to death in there homes, a lot of them will be out and about doing what ever they can. I new a fella that grew up in Chili in the 1960's and early 70's whos family was in constant gun battles(which they won or else he wouldn't be here to tell his tail). A big world wide collapse will be fare worse than a south American bannan republic.

  7. Re-reading this post and comments got me thinking.
    We all KNOW that a die off is coming, and soon. But I doubt it will be simultaneously global. I think it will be piecemeal. Kosovo, Syria, Iraq, St.Louis, all the parts of Africa plagued by all of tribal violence, drought, and plagues - sometimes all at once.
    But it raises the question - to move to the currently safe place, or hunker down in place and ride out the local die off?
    And how to decide?
    Or maybe instead of moving to a 'safe place' (i.e. from syria to europe) moving instead to a place that has gone completely through its die off so it is well enough depopulated to be safe (like a rural area in the Kosovo region)...
    Thoughts, opinions, options, and decision trees on this sort of subject could probably fill a couple articles for you Jim of the grandest hair in all Elko....

    1. Hmmm, not a bad idea. Now, once again proving we freaks are all kinda on the same wavelength, I just wrote a four part article on climate change refugees. But that was from a locals perspective seeing incoming. I'm going to think on yours as it might be a nice departure from the usual economic collapse centric/rat race drop out perspective. I'll mull it over.

    2. This is a good idea. Like buying burned forest land, knowing that it's not going to burn down to ash until at least a few years as the fuel loads up. It gives you a chance to pick a site and build with Compressed Earth Blocks and stone, then plant trees where it's safe and doesn't block the sun on the panels.

    3. Or moving to Detroit, knowing it isn't going to get any worse. Perhaps better, as people are almost guaranteed to be leaving rather than arriving.

    4. Detroit would be one such example. Though I think the city and surroundings are still far too populated for now.
      How about the gulf-coast after the next "Katrina" type storm?

    5. I don't know if the Gulf Coast will ever be depopulated by the rich until federal insurance is eliminated.
