Yesterday I talked about the historical qualifications of joining a tribe.  And it has little to do with super duper deluxe survivalist skills.  “Oh, look, a doctor.  Even without any medicine or electricity or disposable items such as gloves, somehow his indoctrination by the profit seeking medical industry which ignores nutrition, pushes poisons such as chemotherapy and radiation, exacerbates pre-existing conditions and ignores anything not in their paradigm such as colloidal silver or oxygen therapy, somehow he is going to be an invaluable member of our group.  Let’s let him in super double quick regardless of his history, temperament or attitude”.  Ahhh, NOT.
*
The paramount attribute in the tribe is not skill.  It is loyalty.  If you ignore this, if you pick and choose new entrants based on some mythical hero status granted by state controlled certification, you are asking to be screwed.  There might also be bluing and tattooing.   Think back to your military service.  And how retarded the officers were.  They were loyal to the Yankee Empire.  They had few to no skills.  They got a shiny piece of paper saying they WERE skilled, and since Big Washington Chief Muckeemuck said it was true, it must have been!  If you actually believed this, you were career material.  The rest of those following some misguided notion that competence mattered quickly went elsewhere for a job.
*
Not that the private sector was much better.  Unless you are already collecting Social Security, you are probably too young to have worked prior to the Corporate Equivalent of idiot officers becoming the norm, every leader hired for loyalty rather than skill.  Not both, mind you, JUST loyalty.  As we moved forward towards more and more centralization, the general trend has been to embrace tribalism in an effort to maintain our sanity in an unworkable system.  The unfortunate side effect is incompetence being promoted everywhere.  This doesn’t actually work very well in an intricate complicated system with lots of moving parts, and should tell you all you need to know as far as the probability of collapse.
*
But loyalty over skill works very well in the tribe.  First off, you’ve had a lifetime of training, and the dumbest brute amongst you knows the rules.  Unconditional loyalty and utmost good behavior towards Us, hate and irrational violence towards Them.  Secondly, we are hardwired mentally and designed biologically towards being warriors ( male, not Linda Hamilton ) and that is the skill the tribe needs.  It is working WITH biology, not against it.  But what about that die-off period when empire had outlawed tribes in favor of centralization, when tribes must be reintroduced anew?
*
This is where things get messy.  You want anarchy and confusion galore, look no further than paradigm change through the ultra violent.  A lot of idiots will survive and a lot of skilled folks won’t.  There is going to be a lot of luck involved in the process.  And there will be ZERO knowledge about historical anthropological based tribal group dynamics.  It is all going to be winging it and dumb blind luck bringing the proper behaved cultures to the winners ( survivors ) circle.  Some will luck into making it by embracing those skills that improve the odds. 
*
Primarily, group loyalty.  Why?  Because of our lifetime commitment towards rewarding stupidity, very few will have the stamina and fortitude to spit in the face of “Christian Values” and go all primal.  With unconditional loyalty towards the tribe, you will be able to bypass that charity conditioning.  The group decides ALL must die that invade the land like locusts, which includes women and children ( aside from approved replacement levels ).  The group based on passive acceptance of love and valuing outsiders will be making the wrong decisions.  The group that glories in the death and destruction of outsiders because the tribal elders said it was the wise course of action, they have a leg up in the survival lottery.  
*
It is easy to fear and hate young male outsiders.  When you look at videos of African migrants trying to offload in Italian ports, you can actually see the evil in their eyes.  You know if you give them a sharp pointy thing that you won’t live much longer.  But you must fear and hate ALL outsiders.  Women and children and grumpy old humpers included unless you temporarily decide otherwise.  Keep the hate and it is easy to change your mind as strategy dictates and you can go all Postal on their asses as needed.  Perhaps that is why most merchant societies are looked down on.  They have questionable loyalty to their own tribe, as the profit motive corrupts them.  Well, that and they are Girly-Men.
*
So, once a group adapts all these successful mutations, why are you as an outsider going to be accepted?  If you are accepted because of your skill, look out.  The group has so far survived on luck alone and the day of reckoning is still near.  If nothing else, they find an excuse to kill you when food is scarce and you can’t perform miracles without Oil Age supplies ( see doctor example from the beginning of this article ). Why would they do this?  Because there is no loyalty.  Tribal loyalty expects you to risk your life, but in return others are risking their lives for you.  This is where the concept of “nobody left behind” came from.  Once you are crow snacks, nobody cares about your corpse.  The point is to get you out in case you are still alive, as torture was quite common.  Your buddy is going to spare you that, at the risk of his own life.
*
Remember, loyalty isn’t supposed to be rational.  It is irrational tactically to win strategically.  That is why loyalty is so dang important, even at the expense of competence.  It strengthens the organization in the long run, regardless of the short term.  Now do you see why loyalty over skill is so important in our society today?  Our nation state died near fifty years ago, in the ashes of Vietnam and the gold standard.  Since then we have been fragmenting.  You who are waiting for that as a sign of collapse missed the boat on that signal.  Already baked into the cake.
*
I’m going to continue this tomorrow.  I want to explore the bigger themes of tribal groups undermining the central state and empire, and somehow I’ll get around to post-apocalypse.  Sorry, but if you don’t learn the underlying foundation you cannot understand what happens next.

  1. Define the difference between tactical and strategical. Thank you.

    1. Tactical is what you do to win the battle, strategic is how you win the war.

  2. Yep, and minions should consider how really really really loyal the spouses/domestic partners, 'Merikacanized teenage kids, other relatives, yuppie unicorn militia group members, etc are. If you call on them at 3 a.m. and they promptly respond with a shovel and case of beer to help you with the body, well then, a keeper. All others if questionable now, gonna be worser later.

    1. I believe protocol dictates that the friend showing up with a shovel need not bring anything else. He who produced the body is responsible for the beer.

  3. “Think back to your military service.  And how retarded the officers were.”


    Commissioned officers are college graduates, which technically insinuates that they’re supposed to be smarter than most of the grunts. But apparently a college degree is no longer a litmus test to intelligence. Take Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, for example. Has an economics degree, and she’s dumber than Lou Ferrigno :D (Family Guy reference). But guess what? She only has to be smarter than the morons that she’s promising free shit to :D

    I was watching an old Clint Eastwood movie called The Gauntlet. Sondra Locke played a college educated prostitute. The movie made her appear as if she had super human powers because of her degree; it was hilarious!

    1. I think they are still going by the "officer and a gentleman", and obviously gentlemen are always smarter and kinder and better than the civilian rabble. That butt humper George Washington had that exact attitude and the Army never changed. As to the movie "The Guantlet", I have only seen that once ( which is rare for an Eastwood movie-I usually see then two or three times ), and so long ago it was on HBO or VHS tape. Can't remember a darn thing. But wasn't the actress Clints main squeeze then? I think the script would have reflected that bias. But it is amazing the propaganda was started way back then, pushing paper at increasing prices.

    2. That’s right Jim; she was his girlfriend at the time. As memory serves me, I wanna say that ole Clint tired of her, and just gave her the boot! She then either sued him, or tried to sue him. I seem to recall that her career didn’t go much beyond that, so it’s possible that she wouldn’t have had the career that she did if it weren’t for him. Now a days, pulling something like that (despite the fact that it was a mutually beneficial relationship) will get your ass #metoo’ed, and that’s practically career suicide now a days (just ask that fellow with the funny sounding Jewish name :D ). What’s funny to me is that most of these dudes that got busted for this, were some of the most vocal proponents of feminism, and big contributors to many leftist causes as well (traitors). So it couldn’t have happened to a nicer bunch of guys :D

      I just happened to catch that movie a few months back on some retro station. The main premise is police corruption (It reminded me of Witness with Harrison Ford). It actually looked as if it were a decent movie.

      As far as officers and gentlemen go, I’m pretty sure that gentlemen don’t insert small, furry, rodents, into their rectums :D

    3. Sondra wasn't a bad actress, and easy on the eyes, but how many of them last past a few films anyway? They are a commodity like guys in pornos. Seems like it was becoming fashionable then to play the victim card.

  4. Membership, and the loyalty it can bring forth is contingent. The shifting sands of modern humanity has vastly changed from the days of old. People can and do with frequency change their membership and loyalties like dirty laundry. This is frequent in low stressor times. It will take a lot of cultural and social retraining to cause people to be bound up in a true membership loyalty grouping. Until then it will just be a version of t.v. series like big brother, survivors (funny name and all) etc. Amateurish attempts at Machevellian intrigue. Stay away, stay in the woods, stay up in the hills.

    1. Can't say I disagree-it is only a question of what it will take to revert to olden times. The tribe advocates say you will run out of storage food up in the hills. But within their ad hoc tribe thrown together in desperation, you will die sooner from stupidity.
