The USSA Is a Prison For a Nation

The fundamental concept, or rather the primary problem that I am trying to solve for with my writing and theorizing in my essays on Populism is the infamous Prisoner’s Dilemma. We may as well rename it the Populist’s Stumbling Block as it applies to politics and effectively resisting the powers that be.

If you don’t know what the Prisoner’s Dilemma is, you really ought to read up on it first, but here’s just a quick summary for those who simply need a reminder to jog their memories.

The scenario goes something like this: two prisoners are brought in for interrogation and encouraged to confess to their crimes and implicate the other. If they do so, they will get a reduced sentence while their partner-in-crime will be put away for life. However, if they both keep their mouth shuts, they both walk free because there is nothing to implicate them. It comes down to a question of trust, cooperation and the pursuit of self-interest. By pursuing their self-interests, both men would simply implicate the other, because this is the rational thing to do. With both men ratting on each other, the sentences for both become worse. In other words, the Prisoner’s Dilemma seems to indicate that there are certain conditions under which pursuing rational self-interest leads to sub-optimal outcomes for the people caught in the paradox. Cooperation, despite what all the self-help gurus and Lolbergtarian theorists on the internet tell you, can be a superior strategy to pursuing a strategy of “enlightened self-interest”. The wardens in this scenario however, know this, and so they structure the incentives in such a way as to discourage cooperation and to encourage the prisoners to pursue their enlightened self-interests straight into a longer sentence for themselves and their fellow prisoners.

Now, this metaphor or scenario can be extended out to pretty much the entirety of the situation that we find ourselves in. This is because we live in conceptual prisons and, frankly, just straight-up prison nations on what is rapidly becoming a prison planet.

Those of us who have pushed up against the bars know this to be true and try our best to alert the others, with mixed results. Most people, however, do not allow themselves to find out for themselves just how free or unfree they really are, because they are terrified of what they might discover for themselves to be true. Case in point: Ye. How many people have come out to defend him for his act of self-sacrifice and courage? Compare that with the amount of people that have come out to attack him.

I’ll have an article on the Ye phenonemon and how it relates to Populism coming out in the coming days, stay tuned.

On a very simple level, everyone in society has an incentive to rat on their neighbors, friends and family whether it be in school, at work or in the public square and to just generally be a rabid, uncooperative cunt while thinking this makes them independent or “free” or manly or something equally inane.

Again, there is method to this madness if you care to peel away the layers of sophistry and whining about morals, principle and so on. Society has been deliberately structured like a prison where cooperation among the prisoners is the optimal strategy, but one that is discouraged and actively prevented through both hard and soft incentives by the wardens and the guards. It is imperative that the prisoners remain uncooperative, regardless of the ideological justification or whatever because should the prisoners ever stop ratting on each, stealing each other’s rations and shanking one another, they’d realize that they greatly outnumber the guards and maybe even start organizing a breakout. Anything that undermines cooperative behavior and the ability of people to work together towards a common end is considered a threat and is treated accordingly. That is the underlying motivation that informs all of the measures that our warden-elite take to make our lives shorter, nastier and more brutish.

Yes, preventing cooperation, or the ability of people to band together informs a huge part of the current prison policy that we are being subjected to. There is one other part of the control matrix, however, and it involves weakening individual inmates by encouraging vice and self-destructive behavior. To keep us in our cells, the wardens of our society also encourage human weakness and vice in all of its forms to take root and fester in the population at large like a carefully placed bio-bomb. Viktor Bout recently made the point that America is run like a prison and its people are too drug-addled to ever revolt against the wardens who oversee it.

Actually, this article was already half-written when I decided cover his interview. Imagine my surprise when I found out that the infamous and eccentric international weapons-dealer on the news was on the same wage-length as I was on this issue and even used the same metaphor to describe American society. What’s more, my much briefer two-day stint in isolation encouraged me to get into yoga and biochemistry manipulation just like Bout as well. He ascribes it to ancestral blood memories being reawakened inside of him. Me, I figured that there was a non-trivial chance of me having to spend time in a cell again sometime in my life so I ought to learn now how to meditate to better pass the time when it came to that. Also, the Slavs have a saying that was drilled into me as a youth:

От сумы и от тюрьмы не зарекайся

Which means, roughly, “no one can hedge off poverty or a prison sentence” or “never say that you won’t fall into destitution or prison, it can happen to anyone”.

And people say Slavs are sullen pessimists? Strange. I don’t see it lol.

Above all else, strength on the part of the prisoners is feared by the wardens in high places that run our prison-nations and promote the various voodoo ideologies that keep us mentally shackled as well. But I’m here to simplify things, to cast out the dead weight and to focus our attention on the most essential.

Strong men working with other strong men to solve the problems that society faces are the greatest threat that our prison-system faces. As a result, strong men, and especially strong White men of good character nowadays, are routinely denigrated and attacked by the hook-nosed wardens who run the media, the political parties, the secret police and the financial systems. Any man who seeks out strength through the pursuit of truth, the application of self-discipline and the amplifying effect of reaching out to other like-minded men is immediately labeled a dangerous Nazi-Fascist-Terrorist by the wardens. Most appallingly though, they are rejected by the other inmates who are actually the system’s first line of defense against dissent and rebellion.

You can even see these kapos pop up in the comment section of my humble blog all the time whining about how I’m an anti-wardenite, how I have to accept the dark deity of the wardenite people to be saved; see them whine about how my talk of strength being the best first principle for an individual and a society to be based on is pure evil and so on.

I keep returning to this point in my Populism and Metaphysics essays and even my rants against the 5D political Nostradamuses on the Chronicles - that we find ourselves in a conceptual prison first and foremost. Our preconceptions about metaphysics, politics, and to some extent, the war in the East limit us. How can we organize a prison break of any kind if the other inmates are the first to shank us should we try to take even two steps towards freedom?

Again, the greatest constraint that we face is our reliance on the various voodoo ideologies that inform us that we have to think a certain way about the economy, about politics or about spiritual matters. Should one prisoner disagree with another about the tenants of one voodoo ideology promoted by one group of ethnic neocons over another, he is immediately rounded up on and attacked. This isn’t empty theorizing on my part - it happens to me all the time as a matter of fact. I start asking some pointed questions about assumptions regarding anything from Einsteinan physics, Pasteur’s virus theory, Levitical fairytales, Lolberg market theory, or anything at all, really and I immediately run afoul of one true believer or another.

Sure, some of what I say is quite literally unOrthodox, to put it mildly, but, at the end of the day, I am just prisoner 124c41+ (one to foresee for the many) ranting in his little cell on the internet. Getting mad at me for trying to be practical and asking the hard questions won’t make you any less of a prisoner and it won’t bring you any closer to freedom either. Again, as Viktor Bout pointed out in his interview, our vices keep us down and in servitude. These vices don’t have to just be drugs - jealousy, greed, anger and so on plague the prisoner population. The ideological justifications that the ideologoyim mouth off to justify their being spiteful and uncooperative make them feel like they’re pure and holier than thou in the moment. But they do nothing to ameliorate the situation that we all find ourselves in at the end of the day.

Luckily, I actually do have some ideas for how to go about getting out of the political and metaphysical Prisoner’s Dilemma that we find ourselves in now. I’ll probably save all that good stuff for my second book that’s going to come out after New Year’s. I need to take about a month to sit down and finish it instead of spending all my time and energy blogging about the news du jour. It’s just that the revelations and developments since December has actually been paradigm-shifting and really interesting to cover.

I hope for a brief shtil’ in the news storm to settle over us in the coming days so I can finish writing a short story, and then shift my focus over to finishing my metaphysics book. Feel free to take this opportunity to support me because you like what I’m saying, because you want to buy me a New Year’s present, or because you simply want something to read should I start to write less in the coming days and weeks!

I’m so so close to being able to cover rent in the Third World with just blog proceeds thanks to your generous support so far. If I can get 100 paid subscribers, I can postpone having to sign up for CodeAcademy and a fulfilling career automizing other prisoners’ jobs away forever.
