a dish best served cold 2


A DISH BEST SERVED COLD 2
When I say “Food First”, I don't just mean you buy bags of wheat before more AR mags ( yes, yes, blow me dough boys. I love wheat, you might not. Whatever your grain of choice is. Just because the Chinese eat rice and against the taste of that even bat soup is num-nums, that doesn't mean wheat is superior, tastes better, is cheaper or more nutritious. Nothing to see here. Move on down to your local rice emporium ). It also means food explains ALL human behavior. All of it. There, now you don't need a college degree, anthropology students.
*
Food determines if your area is a centralized agricultural empire or full of tribal nomads. Because food determines the kind of government you have. Even the Industrial Revolution and the Oil Age is still fundamentally about food. You could have used industry to have trade goods for food ( Britain, China ), or used industry to feed extra population ( US, Russia, China ), but in the end factories don't matter except for protecting or producing more food. Our imperial stormtroopers occupying the planet is a legacy system.
*
We had so much industrial output agriculture we used food as a weapon. Now we use foreign oil to keep feeding ourselves. It is no longer about wealth but survival ( well, wealth for our overlords ). It was always about food. Those areas with the fiercest tribal fighting are generally in areas where the tribal structure fits the food production system. Where does the more militant tribes reside in the US? Usually in those areas where food is local and doesn't need a centralized system. In Iraq, food production needs centralization because of water, but the rest of the country is an Industrial Age/Colonial holdover and not needed.
*
It is surplus land, most likely only important for a barrier and for the access of the headwaters to the agricultural areas. The areas are better left to tribal control, as long as the understanding remains who the water ultimately belongs to ( and the local tribe agrees to act as a speed bump to invasion ). The only reason the borders still stand is oil and inertia. In the future, it will break up. Everywhere will revert back to local food production. I bring this up to reinforce the forces arrayed against the nation state. Which is a artificial construct only viable during times of surplus.
*
That is why you don't see America, Iraq or Afghanistan united. They are already reverting back to a natural system determined by food production. The Appalachian and Ozark mountains have little reason to belong to another country, as they survive best by homesteading with some villages for limited trade. The Rockies can provide a similar organization but with those distances and the limited agriculture, I think the Mormon model is better. A centralized area for cereal production and settlement areas to act as security on the borders ( plus a needed expansion capacity ).
*
Afghanistan survived many of the world's biggest empires by staying tribal. That works for them. Valley cereal production, mountain herders acting as security. Why don't they unite as one? Because that defies the whole definition of tribal, doesn't it? Now, tribal doesn't always work. It sure didn't help against the French and British if you were in Africa. Sometimes the military tech will make a difference in MOST-not all-areas. But you will note that Africa was only subjugated for a very short time. Then it went back to the survival trait of being Africa.
*
No matter what happens, Africa for the most part ( obvious, not places like Egypt ) stays tribal. It is a survival mechanism. No matter the population, the famine level, the diseases, Africa stays in equilibrium, long term, big picture. White folks act as if a ( mostly ) lack of empires in Africa is somehow bad, as if they are bare assed savages. And? So? They survived well as tribes. Being a part of the empire in Europe resulted ultimately in a 500 year Dark Age. Africa doesn't see that kind of disruption. Sure, it didn't see that previous level of wealth, either. It is a balance.
*
And what does this have to do with vendettas, revenge, vengeance and seemingly irrational feuds? Why is it more important to smite your neighbor than an invader? My theory is that an invader always goes home. Always. A nation can marshal impressive military's. It has a much harder time fielding them indefinitely. The US stayed in Vietnam at a time we had never produced so much oil, until that supply started running out. Russia stayed in Afghanistan so long it bankrupted an empire.
*
How can we do the same? We aren't trying to win. That was the lesson we learned in Vietnam. Don't put most of your industrial output into a war you can never win. But one way or another, an invader always goes home. Always. But the tribe next door? There will always be there. The main fight is never with an invader. It is always about the neighbors. And if you don't fight the neighbors, but rather the invader, the neighbor waits until you are weak and attacks you. Or, better, helps the invader attack you.
*
How many times throughout history did a trusting tribe try to play nice, only to be betrayed? So many times, it was finally learned that you NEVER trust a neighbor. Ever. So back to the question of why we cannot band together to fight Washington DC and its buttboy brigades the communists. Because once the federales and the commies go home, you cannot be living next to someone who can win fighting you. Why did the coastal Africans capture inland Blacks to sell to the Whites? Not their tribe, and every captured warrior weakened the neighbor.
*
Why would you attack the Feds from your mountaintop? If you were weakened, then the boys from the swamp came in and attacked you once that happened. You have better farmland and the women aren't a danger of inbreeding. Would you both win the war sooner, if you joined forces? Perhaps. But eventually, the feds lose anyway. And you took no chance of weakening yourself, or of being betrayed. Look at WWII. Everyone from every US state joined together to win the war. What happened then? The states turned on each other, and the feds occupied all state capitals.
*
When you join, you are eventually betrayed by those you helped. That isn't a possibility, that is a guarantee. That is why you fight each other more than the invader. A little pain now, or a lot later. What about feuds and vendettas? I think that is just a focusing mechanism. It is a way of continuing a long term conflict until the worst threats are eliminated. Since good guerrillas never attack head on, they only ambush, this might take some time. Better to trade time for safety. After all, the guerrillas didn't always have semi-auto poodle shooters with FLIR scopes. The weapons on hand demanded surprise and overwhelming force.
*
We are already invaded. From the national capital, the state capital, and from immigrants. They will all go home, once there is no longer any wealth to extract. But your neighbors, the Quisling collaborators, the communists helping the invaders, those are the douchebags that will be staying. THOSE are your primary enemies. The communists have been our enemies for a long time. They are ones who support kings. If you want to stay armed, and hence a sovereign individual, that is your enemy. Whose who will disarm you. A nice old grandma who collaborates to disarm you? More dangerous than a thug from the BATF.
*
Know your enemies. The short answer is, all not my tribe. The long answer is, the WORST enemies are my neighbor tribes. In today's environment, that means communists. Some neighbors are more dangerous than others. One you simply are wary of. The other deserves a lifelong vendetta against.

  1. At this advanced stage of things, Minions will have to formulate a scorecard for direct action initiation when things go to the spicy setting on the dial. If hermitaged in a low population area and governed by still small .gov structures there is a chance at effective tribal self direction within that A.O.

    There will however have to be some purgings internally. The local known scumbaggery cases will need to be extrajudiciously expunged from the new society going forward, no appeals, no talking it over. (yes Nancy, deathsquads, your fatherless doper son with a crime record and dipshit reputation gets his ticket punched)

    Once those gravy days auto payments cease, (pensions, s.s., ebt, sect. 8, state and fed funds to local gov., etc) all involved will then have to stand up on own or be carried by local charity capabilities, which will leave many out in the cold literally. Those categories of dregs not self supporting or able to integrate into the new program, (the now economically useless and banished from the web blogger with soft hands quickly becoming a useful cow hand in lieu of starving) will need to be refugee caravaned or force marched at gunpoint if necessary out of the tribal lands. Non hackers can go to those city places, ("just frigging follow the road lady it leads you to Manna, keep moving!")

    Yes, by acknowledging the extremes that (may) occur, it is a better "prepping" strategy overall.

    1. Preppers will be among the selected to die. Too much wealth to not be a new elite target. Someone will find something to put you on the purge list. Plan thus.

  2. The invaders always leave unless they genocide your tribe or race. For instance, whites killed almost all natives in America. Then the whites stayed and grew.

    1. And now the Whites are going through a semi-genocide by demographics. Who gets it next?

    2. It is a zero sum game out there. Hispanics taking care of their own comes at the expense of Whites. I've never known pure ghetto trash, more White trash. I don't think I'm like them. But I might suggest that what you are witnessing is the White culture playing at that zero sum game. We were targeted economically. It might be as simple as the pie shrinking which forces out compassion. I'll check out that movie.

    3. You're not white trash at all. You have a sense of self-discipline, planning ahead, etc. You. Read. Books.

    4. Before the publishing houses moved standards to the lowest common denominator, recreational reading was only 5% of the population. NOT reading was far more common. Not the best benchmark ( although I understand what you are saying )

  3. Was listening to coast to coast am the other night, and this dude was the guest. It was about survivalism (Rawles has been a guest on this show before as well) and forming your own communities. As usual, I was half asleep, so I missed much of it, but it sounded interesting, and may be of use to those that wish to “tribe up” or form their own community.

    I like the idea of forming my own community. Unfortunately, it seems that the govt is suspicious of such individuals, and often won’t leave them in peace. Then the next thing you know, cigar and Hitlery cooter tainted breathed, bull dykes, are sending out the marching orders to firebomb and level your ass :D

    It’s always the ol’ tried and true: “They’re diddling little kids in there”. You’d think that people would eventually become leery of these sorts of accusations, but I guess not.

    1. People are sheep, and the elite are usually right how unworthy we are. Until it bites our overlords in the ass. Which doesn't happen enough.

  4. Neighbors just as dangerous as the enemy...
    When Jerusalem was under siege by the Romans (and eventually conquered in A.D. 70) those inside the city walls fighting the Romans had bigly neighbor problems. There were three separate warring factions within the city fighting for control of leadership and/or resources. Very ugly time in human history and similar internal conflict events have occurred before and since then just like you say in today's post.
