Atrocities

Atrocities are enabled by dehumanization. We are all the enemy.

War Crimes are NEVER Justifiable

By anyone. How hard is it to say?

No Face No Case

 

True Colors

Blaming Russia for an unforced error doesn't cut it.

Opponents

Opponents are not necessarily playing the same game. Victory may have different meaning. Maximalism is a weakness to be exploited for maximum advantage. Set a trap before setting back.

Consequences

Unintentional consequences are a the result of conflicted priorities. What is it that you want most?

Hysterical

Hysterical rending, gnashing, and clutching is a gift for the inspiration of hours and hours of mockery. Every four or eight years we are treated to endless raw material as a partisan minority bemoans its defeat at the hand at another minority.  In terms of population, each tribe of political partisans is dwarfed in size those who do not participate in elections, or at best vote for candidates they hate the least.  Funny how this is never discussed by the press...

Disposable People

Economy requires essential disposable people. No wonder labor participation is so low.

Weak Narratives

 Weak narratives are a symptom of exhaustion.
