RODNEY KING COLLAPSE 2

Not only do I hate post apocalypse fiction that tries to teach that Oil Age skills are applicable after the collapse, I really dislike those tales that attempt to portray People As Good.  Let me repeat for the several hundredth time.  Your tribal members are good and you treat them morally.  Those not in your tribe are subhuman and not worthy of your ass crack sweat while they die of thirst.  That doesn’t mean I advocate for torture or inhumane treatment of slaves, just as I wouldn’t want to mistreat animals that provide me with yummy steaks.

*

It means that you never, ever, never in your ( post-apocalypse ) life do anything that would endanger your own tribe while interacting with another.  When you think you can buy Gods love by donating food to starving refugees, in effect you are condemning your family and friends and tribe to eventual hunger and starvation because food surplus is Now, not post-Now, and if you can’t accept that not only would I not want you in my tribe I would also hunt you down and kill you after you were kicked out of it.  You Gott Damn Ignorant Slut!  You stupid pigheaded moron!

*

Feeling bad for people suffering is fine.  As long as they are YOUR people.  Feeling bad for non-tribe members is okay, as long as you don’t help them when resources are scarce.  Oh, we have plenty of food stores, and they are starving children! You have a surplus now, true, granted, okay.  In a year, when the harvests are smaller than expected, suddenly you have a shortfall.  Now you have condemned your own people to suffer so you could temporarily feel good about yourself now.  You put a gun to your children’s head and played Russian Roulette. 

*

But you felt better about yourself!  Have you even heard about being a parent?  Their job is to suffer for their children.  Did you not get that memo during the four to six months of almost zero sleep as the whiny creature kept crying their damn fool head off all night long?  The kid doesn’t do a damn thing but eat and grow and soil itself and you, it has excess energy to cry 24/7 because the ingrate puke is pissed you exited it from that warm and dark cesspit you call your wife’s womb.  So repeat after me.  It doesn’t friggin matter what makes you feel good.  It matters what is better for the child. 

*

Being selfish about your child’s welfare and not giving a crap about strangers is part of your job. And that extends to the tribe as a whole because their sum is greater than their parts and you can’t survive without them ( this doesn’t necessarily invalidate hiding alone during the collapse if that increases your odds, as long as you believe it probable that you will have the necessary entrance fee to join a tribe afterwards ).  That doesn’t mean you abuse strangers, it means you turn your back by necessity.

*

Feeding strangers is stupid.  And so is not acting like every other tribe is out to destroy you and your family.  You can have alliances and peace.  But if you ever act like that is a lasting arrangement, you are endangering your tribe.  Because even if you don’t double cross them for a positive profit/loss equation, they will turn on you if it helps them more than it hurts them.  There is never a peace, there are only periods between conflict.  And if you are not acting like that is the case, you will be the loser. 

*

Just look at the US military.  It is a welfare program for corporations  interests and the bankers that finance that corporate pay.  There is no actual conventional military deterrent possible between the weapons that cost a lot but don’t work and the politically correct social engineering.  The only thing keeping us from being attacked is a nuclear arsenal, and even that is being sacrificed on the altar of PC Profits.  That is NOT how you run a tribe, at the expense of all for the profit of a few.  You must act as if there is always going to be an enemy more powerful than you, not less.

*

And you must act as if they will always be ready to attack you.  Now apply that to everything.  The food that will feed you, the safe zones surrounding you, the ore or other natural resources you need.  You need to think about today, but also twenty years from now.  What if your birth rate drops?  What if the tribe next door attacks their enemy and doubles in size suddenly?  What if they attack for no good reason other than stupidity or greed or desperation? 

*

Cooperation with your enemy is counter productive long term.  Why?  Because humans are no better than wild animals, species survival wise.  The group that populates to get a resource first wins.  Then they overpopulate and die. Your tribe will eventually perish from resource scarcity.  Your job is to postpone that as long as possible.  And cooperation with other tribes is NOT on the menu.  Because he who controls the resources wins. NOT he who shares them.  That is what war is all about.  A group of fifty battles another group of fifty for control of the resources that can feed eighty. 

*

Did you get that math?  There is never enough ( long term ) for two groups cooperating.  There is only enough for one group to have a surplus after destroying another group.  And you always need a surplus, because Crap Happens.  Like a sudden crop failure or some of the herd gets Hoof And Mouth disease, or whatever.  You also need a surplus to breed extra providers and fighters, to keep that surplus, add to it and protect it.  Who the crap would want to share the surplus when doing so empties the pantry you have set aside for a rainy day fund? 

*

Not being aggressive, not being selfish, not being greedy, those are the hallmarks of a successful tribe.  That is a cooperative group.  BUT THAT ONLY WORKS WITHIN THE GROUP!!!!  Not outside it.  That is anti-biology.  Bitches not breeding because they don’t feel like it, because they want to be independent of the Phallocracy, that is anti-biology.  Not going to war because there just doesn’t seem to be a need for it right now-against the groups interest.  Not killing the enemies children and women and old people-not only long term cruel because they will starve anyway, but also endangering to your own tribe if you aren’t hard enough to get the job of survival done.

*

Not beating your own kid until he grows a nutsack and hardens up to be a warrior?  You are working against the interests of your group.  Not beating the wife as she gets uppity, sowing discontent and disunity?  Selfish and dangerous.  We are all selfish and self centered right now.  To be otherwise endangers our own survival today.  Just beware that is anti-tribal behavior and you’ll have no choice but to change soon enough, as tribes become the survival mechanism.  Hippie Hugs, Peace and Getting Along are fine for the nation state.  Not for a decentralized tribe surrounded by danger.
