OWS III, The Occupying
Hey look, a categorized list of the ways OWS is making a nuisance of itself.
The Tea Party foolishly believes in the system and thus tries to participate in the noble way that they’ve been taught works (but totally doesn’t). I used to be a part of the Tea Party, but am no longer affiliated, and I know a bit of what it’s like to be on the ground floor.
OWS understands the system as it actually works, if only on an unconscious level: Shit on the sidewalk, piss off police officers, and then whine and cry as they drag you away. These images get sent off to the media, embarrass law enforcement and the military (if the NG gets involved), and you get your way. It’s how every single Progressive movement previous has worked, and it’s how OWS will work.
On a relatively unrelated note, these three posts prove that Canada and Great Britain are provinces of the United States, though unofficially. Otherwise, why would they care?

The Cure For The Disease
This is the founding principle of all neo-autocratism. It is not that we reject the new, for fear of it. It is not that we worship the old, for lack of an understanding of it.
We want to become stronger.
I have no time for anyone who wishes otherwise.

My Choice for King
What good is theorizing about a monarchy without having someone in mind for the top spot? Not very good at all. Naturally, one of the first things I did when I turned to the Dark Side is begin looking for the next King.
Probably my prime choice is this fellow.
Meet EG IdrA, StarCraft player extraordinaire.
What?
I do not jest, a professional StarCraft player is my top choice for King. Why?
EG IdrA is known through the StarCraft circuit as "the one good foreigner (non-Korean)". He was offered a scholarship to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, but refused, instead opting to continue his professional gaming career. To me, this is a demonstration of good decision making, college being basically a trap for intellectuals. Having watched a few of his matches, IdrA consistently plays for the long term, very rarely doing all-in strategies that sacrifice the long term game in hopes for a quick win.
In addition, IdrA has virtually no tolerance for idiots, a common affliction among the modern class of competent intellectuals. I am quite sure that with little persuasion, IdrA would accept the mantle of power with few qualms, and with little risk of "ruler's remorse". Unlike most other candidates for the position, EG IdrA would be unlikely to cave under leveling pressure to return the country to a more democratic system.
IdrA has good knowledge of strategy, and would need little retraining to be a competent military commander. Were those commands at all desirable today, I have little doubt that IdrA would be a rising star. It is indeed a piercing critique of today's society that such a fit individual spends his time playing a video game instead of conquering the barbarians.
As you can clearly see in the first link, IdrA is an alpha, though by my estimate, likely was once very beta. Control is the name of his game, though, and he has long since shed the trappings of the basement beta for the cool, silent swagger of the confident master. Perhaps he does have more work to do, but his progress has been impressive.
Lastly, IdrA is young, and thus, were he crowned today, would have many years with which to work on fixing the extensive damage that democracy and equality have wrought. On the con side, IdrA's prime proficiency is with a game of no consequence, and he, to my knowledge, has not yet donned the black cloak of the Sith. However, I feel that his advantages, especially his potential resistance to leveling influence, greatly outweigh those disadvantages.
IdrA for Emperor-God 2012.

Popular Luddism
There is a fad amongst Brahmin women I know that makeup and cosmetics are evil, and that women should cut their hair short, and stride into public naked of any appearance enhancements.
This is not, as they claim, an effort to reveal a woman's "inner beauty", but rather simple Luddism.
Cosmetic enhancements augment the appearance, just as eye lenses sharpen the sight, books sharpen the mind, and levers augment the natural strength. These things are not products of baseless vanity, but the result of technology and true progress. To advocate their destruction is akin to advocating a return to the caves, a return to being a basal animal.

OWS II, Electric Boogaloo.
Hahahahah.
Every time I get mad at the OWS mob, I just imagine them being rounded up andput into labor camps forcibly given jobs.
