If the incentives are not to correct known errors because the perception of doing so is systemic then it creates a game theory situation where the most rational thing to do is to participate in the compounding of the errors.

It is the height of irrationality to make up hypothetical problems and then try to behave in such a way to avoid them. That's actually how you cause problems.

The Roman Empire, like the Borg from Star Trek, did not create new explanatory knowledge. It just mechanistically subsisted.
They respected the knowledge they inherited from Greece and elsewhere, but they did not create any new knowledge themselves.
Rome was civilizationally short-gamma: a stagnant society predicated on anti-rational memes; concave, immutable, brittle, and systemically exposed to an ever-changing, nonlinear, dynamic memetic environment.
In a closed system like that, the emergent Bayesian Epistemology (which made sense in such a system though false in principle) gave rise to stoicism, epicureanism, and skepticism — which were philosophical copes for their stagnation.
Rome collapsed, as did all other stagnant societies, because they couldn't create the knowledge necessary to solve their problems.
Napoleon as another example, setup a system where he could not correct his errors.
Knowledge creation requires a process of error-correction by way of conjecture and criticism. And, this always begins with a problem and is done imperfectly.
What makes Western society different is that we have a stochastic, dynamic society with a traditional of criticism which is vital to error correction.
The British Empire for example didn't "collapse" like Rome, it gradually decentralized and disseminated its monarchal powers (mostly) nonviolently through a process of error-correction, and thus persists to this day but in a different form.
Before the British, the Dutch invented the first stock market in 1609 which enabled risk diversification from aristocrats concentrated investments in a single fleet of East India Trading Co. ships across ALL ships the country produced. With no material advantage from other countries (same wood, same ship building knowledge) it enabled them to briefly rule global maritime trade.
If the West fails it will not be for the same reasons as Rome, it will be because it impeded the very error-correcting processes which gave rise to it in the first place.

In light of the women supporting Lindsey I propose we resurrect the Salem Witch Trials but in reverse. We just need to modernize the definition of witch:
Any woman who is:
- Liberal
- Possibly white
- Believes in any idea that counteracts their biological instincts
- Believes in any idea that jeopardizes the safety of their family
- Retroactively projects arguments designed to abstain from any and all accountability or moral agency
I welcome additional criteria.
BURN THE WITCHES!
The ability for people to turn anything -- LITERALLY ANY EVENT -- into justifying their partisan political views while projecting incessant hatred for other side is astounding beyond all reason.

IMPROVE TOWARDS WHAT?
OPENAI’S TOP SCIENTIST WARNS AI MAY BE MOVING TOO FAST
OpenAI chief scientist Jakub Pachocki is calling for “extreme caution” as AI capabilities rapidly advance.
He warns that models could soon improve themselves without human intervention, making them increasingly difficult to understand and control.
Pachocki expects AI labs to voluntarily slow development until shared safety standards are established, even as investment in self-improving AI accelerates.

Were the words "38th parallel" used?
During a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, White House special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner expressed interest in a swift end to the fighting in Ukraine and outlined a number of considerations regarding possible ways to resolve the conflict, according to Russian Presidential aide Yuri Ushakov.
"The American representatives made serious preparations for this trip. They not only expressed their traditional interest in a speedy end to the fighting but also formulated a number of ideas regarding possible resolution paths," Ushakov told reporters. interfax.ru/russia/1113431?u…

I asked ChatGPT to find every documented case where a woman's postpartum mental illness directly caused a homicide.
Out of 200+ female killers spanning 150 years, guess how many actually fit that criteria?
The answer shocked me. 🧵

After all of that he screws up the play at the plate LOL!
Umpire Doug Eddings went on a power trip during the bottom of the 6th in the Cardinals Rockies game.
First, he demanded that pitcher Hancel Rincon (in his MLB debut) straighten his hat since no one will wear a hat like that on "his field".
When manager Oli Marmol went to talk to Eddings about the hat incident during a pitching change, Eddings gave the Cardinals a pitch clock violation and ejected Marmol.
A couple batters later, with the Cardinals out of challenges, Eddings made a terrible call on a play at the plate to gift the Rockies the lead.

Fwiw Hunter Biden's laptop did NOT come from Israel.
According to ACTUAL journalists at @MarcoPolo501c3 who wrote a report on the full contents of the 3 laptops, they say:
"Hunter Biden abandoned a water-damaged 2017 MacBook Pro at John Paul Mac Isaac's repair shop in Wilmington, Delaware on April 12, 2019. The FBI took possession of the laptop on December 9, 2019 via a subpoena issued under the pretense of a money laundering investigation. Forensic analysis confirmed the original 'Macintosh HD' drive was created March 28, 2018, and the device synced with Hunter's iPhone XS and iPad via iCloud, pulling in approximately 200GB of data spanning over a decade."
The document states there are "hundreds of documented crimes (both felonies and misdemeanors)". The crimes are organized into five major categories:
- Business-related crimes: FARA violations, money laundering, wire fraud, tax evasion, unreported foreign income/gifts, backdating financial documents, influence peddling with China (CEFC/BHR), Ukraine (Burisma), Kazakhstan, Romania, Mexico, Serbia, Libya
- Sex-related crimes: Prostitution and human trafficking (including interstate transport), non-consensual pornography, sexual activity with a family member (niece)
- Drug-related crimes: Cocaine/crack distribution and possession, operating vehicles under influence, narcotics procurement across state lines
- Influence peddling: Leveraging Joe Biden's vice presidency for foreign business deals, "the big guy" (10% for Joe) arrangements
- Legal accountability: FBI/DOJ slow-walk, FARA enforcement failures, obstruction
But, worse than all of this, the most unbelievable thing that NO ONE HAS EVER SPOKEN ABOUT is Hunter Biden was an investor in a "child slave mine" in Africa whose video footage was showcased on Joe Rogan: youtube.com/watch?v=RTrXk4ge…
The Marco Polo Report confirms BHR (Bohai Harvest RST, Hunter's firm) invested in Tenke Fungurume Mining in the DRC (Congo) in 2016 — listed in BHR's portfolio alongside CATL, Face++, CGN, and others.
Tenke Fungurume is a major copper-cobalt mine. The DRC's cobalt sector is widely documented (by Amnesty International, UN, etc.) to rely on artisanal mining with prevalent child labor.
The report frames this as Hunter's firm profiting from a Chinese-controlled strategic mineral asset in a conflict zone.
Additionally, the investigative journalist who wrote the book Cobalt Red never mentioned Joe or Hunter Biden in the book, and he primarily blames Western capitalism/consumerism & Big Tech.
No. This is just the organized crime of communism. And suffice to say, the isolationist policies of Bolshevik Sheep like @TuckerCarlson would contribute to more this around the world, not less.
Ignorant, naive Westerners indoctrinated by Nietzscheian Slave Morality are enabling the decline of their own societies -- this is the actual problem.
