Stupidity Chapter L
"...the many ways a person can destroy their relationships. Use it not for your partner, but as a self-checklist to see if you are behaving improperly. Then pick one topic at a time and work to fix it. 1.Pride: an unwillingness to admit being wrong or apologize for mistakes. 2.Stubbornness: needing to be right all the time even at the expense of your partner. 3.Selfishness: insisting that everything be about you to the exclusion of a partner’s wants and needs. 4.Rigidity: refusing to change or grow; being so stuck in your ways that your partner’s perception becomes invalid. 5.Arrogance: thinking you are better than your partner in intelligence, appearance, influence, or personality traits and characteristics. 6.Dishonesty: not willing to tell the truth; continuing pattern of lying about large and/or small matters. 7.Apathy: not caring enough to confront, manage, or resolve issues. 8.Deception: intentionally hiding the truth from your partner; being secretive. 9.Exploitation: taking advantage of your partner to get your way regardless of the hurt it causes your partner. 10.Abuse: harming your partner physically, mentally, emotionally, verbally, sexually, financially, and/or spiritually. 11.Manipulation: twisting reality/truth to get what you want. 12.Domination: viewing your partner as inferior (not seeing them as on the same level as you), and viewing yourself as superior. 13.Controlling: micromanaging your partner’s thoughts, feelings, or actions; telling them how they should think, feel or act. 14.Disrespect: talking down to your partner or belittling them. 15.Money: putting money above the relationship. 16.Bitterness: holding onto past hurts, refusing to let things go, and reliving painful moments. 17.Addiction: making drugs, sex, gambling, porn, alcohol, work or other substances the primary relationship. 18.Adultery: having emotional or physical affairs with people outside of the relationship. 19.Depravity: doing immoral behavior at the expense of your partner whether they are aware of it or not. 20.Withholding: not willing to be intimate with partner, withholding parts of self or sex. 21.Overreaction: your partner can be worn out if you take everything too seriously or if you overreact to small matters. 22.Minimization: being dismissive of your partner’s concerns is equally exhausting as overreacting to them. 23.Punishment: unwilling to forgive your partner’s mistakes; this is not about forgetting a mistake rather it is about not allowing the mistake to be put aside. 24.Intolerance: having no or little empathy for your partner. 25.Inflexible: resistance to compromising and coming to some agreement. 26.Jealousy: constantly worried about your partner’s fidelity. 27.Impatience: insisting that things happen immediately, not waiting for your partner’s timing. 28.Nagging: nitpicking your partner apart over little things; done slowly over a long period of time. 29.Abandonment: leaving your partner without warning or explanation. 30.Cruelty: blaming your partner for all errors, mistakes, misunderstandings, and problems. With determination, persistence, and courage, any of these areas can be removed from a relationship. It is never too late to do something better." ***30 Relationship Destroyers

Stupidity Chapter LIII
1. It’s always ultimately about acquiring power 2. Money rewards sociopathy 3. Wealth kills empathy 4. Money is power 5. This same ruling class controls the media 6. People are always manipulating each other 7. Society is made of narrative 8. The lines between nations are imaginary 9. Powerful forces are naturally incentivized to collaborate with each other toward mutual interests 10. There is an immense amount of wealth that can be grabbed in the chaos of war and conflict 11. The neocons are always wrong 12. The push towards truth always starts with yourself
"...You can’t out-manipulate seasoned manipulators. The main error most people make when trying to deal with a sociopath is to try and manipulate them back. Don’t even try. They have years of experience on you because they literally have done nothing else. While you were laughing and crying and worrying and connecting and relating to people, they were working out how to play humans like Garry Kasparov worked out how to play chess. And when you have literal teams of sociopaths collaborating together to amass power, you my dear child, do not have a chance. Don’t play their game. You will lose. The only way to win this is to set your compass resolutely to “true.” Always be honest with yourself. Find all the different ways that you are manipulating others and see them and acknowledge them. Find your tribal allegiances and your desire to be right, and tip your hat to their existence. The more self-aware we are, the less levers we have to be manipulated by. If you are blindly partisan or loyal to a particular faction, that makes you gullible to propaganda because your wishful thinking and your desire to be right come into play. Get honest with yourself about who you are and what you want, and you will start to become an un-playable piece on the board. If we can’t beat these bastards with truth, we don’t deserve to win." ***Twelve Tips For Making Sense Of The World

Stupidity Chapter LIV Metacognition & Self-Confidence Why incompetent people think they’re Amazing
David Dunning wrote this for Pacific Standard: "In 1999, in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, my then graduate student Justin Kruger and I published a paper that documented how, in many areas of life, incompetent people do not recognize — scratch that, cannot recognize — just how incompetent they are, a phenomenon that has come to be known as the Dunning-Kruger effect. Logic itself almost demands this lack of self-insight: For poor performers to recognize their ineptitude would require them to possess the very expertise they lack. To know how skilled or unskilled you are at using the rules of grammar, for instance, you must have a good working knowledge of those rules, an impossibility among the incompetent. Poor performers — and we are all poor performers at some things — fail to see the flaws in their thinking or the answers they lack. What’s curious is that, in many cases, incompetence does not leave people disoriented, perplexed, or cautious. Instead, the incompetent are often blessed with an inappropriate confidence, buoyed by something that feels to them like knowledge..." PacificStand, We Are All Confident Idiots
Jason Kottke sums this up by saying: “Confidence feels like knowledge. I feel like that simple statement explains so much about the world.”

Nothing is risk-free in this system of chaos. And there is no longer any easy solution to safely grow or preserve your capital. Risk is now everywhere. If you invest in the markets, there is risk of temporary or permanent loss of capital. Even if you do nothing and simply hold cash in a bank, there is bail-in risk and financial repression. This is our reality now… the consequence of a financial system that’s at least a century old. In a way, today’s mad scientist central banksters have engineered financial dinosaurs back into our time.

Physical Gold & Silver: Avoid the rush – keep strong and keep stacking. Own physical gold and silver outside a bank! •Kings, governments, dictators, financiers, mathematicians and many other powers have tried to dethrone gold for thousands of years.

Countries race to debase their currencies against each other. Currency devaluation is the number one reason to own precious metals. •Every gram of gold or silver you acquire using fiat currency effectively removes that many “dollars” from the current financial and economic system. •Until the monetary fog lifts and un-rigged navigational markers re-emerge, physical gold remains the only hard reference point capable of providing an essential back up plan for one's nest egg. •The Gold price is the paper price, a mechanism to make physical available at a huge discount. There's 100:1 + leverage, that's over 100 notional claims for every ounce of physical. •Physical gold is scarce and cannot be manufactured or printed. Gold is eternal – all the gold ever produced still exists. •Gold is instant liquidity. Gold has served as money/barter in every period of distress in history. Gold and silver are direct enemies of fiat dollars or fiat anything. •Protect against unprecedented debt levels, bank bail-ins, government confiscation, derivatives implosion, central planning.
Stupidity Chapter LV
"The Sword of Damocles is hanging over the world economy, held only by a single hair of a horse’s tail. With such visible danger, the problem could have been fixed easily by either using a gold chain or even removing the sword altogether. But the elite, and central bankers have had other plans. Instead of replacing the hair with a solid metal chain, the sword is today hanging by a very fragile thread that can break at any time. The global financial system was on the verge of collapse a decade ago. Central banks around the world, led by the Fed injected around $25 trillion in loans and guarantees. Banks like Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch and Bank of America got trillions. Today, more than ten years since the Great Financial Crisis started, the debt problem has become uncontrollable. Global debt has doubled since 2006 and together with derivatives and unfunded liabilities risk has grown exponentially. So $100s of trillions increase in debt and liabilities has not bought the world enduring stability but instead weakened the foundations on which the world economy rests to an extent that the next rescue attempt will totally fail... ...Just like most Venezuelans wish they had bought a bit of gold some time ago, so will most people in the West and the East in the next few years. It is now critical to own some insurance and not to be one of the ones who says “I wish I would have…”

"Financial predators are usually narcissistic and audacious criminals. They regularly have an extreme sense of entitlement coupled with high self-efficacy. Many of them have a charismatic quality and are preternaturally persuasive. Financial predators are commonly shameless and quite adept serial liars. They perceive themselves having near unlimited guile and resourcefulness to extricate themselves out of any compromising situations." -Russ Alan Prince
Into the Mind of a Psychopath Chapter XII
"Antisocial personality disorder is characterized by a long-term pattern of disregard for, or violation of, the rights of others. Persons with a personality disorder have a low moral compass or conscience, as well as a history that is more likely to include maladaptive behaviors such as crime, legal problems, or impulsive and aggressive behavior. Not surprisingly, antisocial personality disorder is included in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual. 5th edition.
Antisocial personality disorders can consist of several variations; however, the most prominent delineations are sociopaths and psychopaths. Unfortunately, may people use the terms psychopath and sociopath interchangeably, almost synonymously. The primary reason the terms are often used interchangeably involves the limited differences that distinguishes the terms. Notably, there are many similarities between the two disorders, such as, disregard for the law, have no regard for the needs or the feelings of others, lack empathy, they both often blame others and have excuses for their behavior, lack emotional attachment, engages in deceptive behavior, lack feelings of remorse or guilt, and more likely than individuals without the disorders to engage in illegal activities. Although, mental health professionals often group sociopaths and psychopaths together, criminologists differentiate between them based on their outward behavior.
Differences between Sociopaths and Psychopaths Include:
• Psychopaths do not have a conscience • Sociopaths have a weak conscience • Psychopaths are more manipulative and calculating than sociopaths • Sociopaths are much more likely to blend in with society than psychopaths • Psychopaths are typically wiling to pretend they care about or are interested in the feelings of others • Sociopaths are less able to play along. They make it plain that they’re not interested in anyone but themselves • Psychopaths are often very intelligent, charming, and good at mimicking emotions • Sociopaths are typically impulsive, they act without thinking about the consequences of their actions • Psychopaths are usually callous, yet charming • Sociopaths often display irritability • Psychopaths can be almost obsessively organized • Sociopaths are usually less organized in his or her demeanor; he or she might be nervous, easily agitated, and quick to display anger • Psychopaths can typically maintain normal social relationships • Sociopaths have a difficult time establishing and maintaining relationships • Psychopaths will often be very successful in their careers • Sociopaths have a difficult time achieving career goals and maintaining employment
Additionally, it appears that some of the antisocial behaviors in sociopaths can lessen over time while the same cannot be said of psychopaths. According to the DSM-5, the symptoms of antisocial personality tend to remit over the course of life, especially during and beyond the fourth decade of life. However, the DSM-5 notes this remission typically only involves a decrease in antisocial behaviors, not a full reduction of all symptoms.
Despite the similarities in the characteristics of psychopathy and sociopathy, it is highly unlikely that a single person could possess the attributes of both disorders. However, it is possible that a person’s attributes might be borderline between a psychopath and a sociopath making it difficult to make a distinction between the disorders." - Dr. Tarra Bates-Duford PhD

Stupidity Chapter LVIII
"...The desire to improve our social standing is natural. What's unnatural is the toxicity of doing so through social media. If we put these three dynamics together, it's little wonder so many people are drawn to living a major part of their lives online, and modifying their behaviors and views to increase their social standing / visibility online by whatever attracts more view, "likes" and "friends." These dynamics help us understand why social media is intrinsically toxic to civil society: being civil doesn't raise one's status, while reaching for new extremes is rewarded by the "likes" and "friends" all humans crave as manifestations of our social status..."

...What exactly is stupidity? David Krakauer, the President of the Santa Fe Institute, told interviewer Steve Paulson, for Nautilus, stupidity is not simply the opposite of intelligence. “Stupidity is using a rule where adding more data doesn’t improve your chances of getting right,” Krakauer said. “In fact, it makes it more likely you’ll get it wrong.” Intelligence, on the other hand, is using a rule that allows you to solve complex problems with simple, elegant solutions. “Stupidity is a very interesting class of phenomena in human history, and it has to do with rule systems that have made it harder for us to arrive at the truth,” he said. “It’s an interesting fact that, whilst there are numerous individuals who study intelligence—there are whole departments that are interested in it—if you were to ask yourself what’s the greatest problem facing the world today, I would say it would be stupidity.
So we should have professors of stupidity—it would just be embarrassing to be called the stupid professor.”...

"...according to Robert Moriarty, gold forces governments to live within their means – and living within our means is exactly what we need to start doing again. With the deficit expected to reach $2.3 trillion this year, there is absolutely no way for the U.S. Government to fund all the spending they’re planning. Here’s another startling statistic: the United States spends more on defense than the next 16 countries combined, and 15 of them are U.S. allies. It’s a symptom of government spending that’s out of control, according to Bob Moriarty, and it’s not going to turn out well. What’s the solution? Mr. Moriarty has a simple one: go back to the gold standard.
He’s not proposing this as a gold bug, but just because gold happens to be an excellent form of money. It’s not that Bob Moriarty expects the government to do the right thing; in actuality, governments consistently do the wrong thing, and financial matters are no exception. Robert Moriarty’s conclusion is unequivocal: there will be a revolution, and it will be worldwide. Citizens around the world are angry, and they demand change. Change is good, but it will be done at gunpoint; the governments will fight against it tooth and nail, and the governments will lose. In the end, we’ll go back to a gold standard – not because we want it, but because we have to." A Global Battle to Replace Fiat Money

Into the Mind of a Psychopath Chapter XIV
1) Narcissistic sociopaths make up around 1% to 5% of the total population, and are present in every culture and ethnicity... 2) A psychopath is not insane in the manner many people might assume... 3) Psychopaths organize with each other constantly as long as there is a promise of personal gain involved... 4) Psychopathic people account for the vast majority of violent crime and fraud in the US and consume astonishing resources in terms of taxpayer dollars... 5) Psychopaths often have very short attention spans, except when they are engaged in a predatory agenda... 6) Their lack of attention span in daily circumstances can be partly attributed to their addiction to dopamine... 7) Narc/sociopaths are not necessarily more intelligent or impressive, though they do tend to score higher than average in terms of IQ... 8) Narc/sociopaths are invariably cowards, and will rarely fight on a level playing field... ...Finally, narc/sociopaths have one particular quirk or obsession which I rarely see discussed, but it is a behavior which I think is central to explaining the methodology of globalists. Narc/sociopaths see themselves as far superior (or godlike) compared to normal people, and they view empathy and the capacity for joy in everyday things as weakness and foolishness. Therefore, they feel justified in their pursuit of dominance and exploitation of others. However, they also understand that they would be considered monstrous by society and face punishment if they are ever exposed... The only way to understand the methods and madness of globalists is to research and understand the thinking of narcissistic sociopaths

"Three dark personalities, narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy have been studied in businesses. Although the first two share similar traits with psychopathy, such as superficial charm, lying and manipulation, the inability to accept responsibility for their actions, and the complete lack of empathy, guilt and humility, a large body of research has demonstrated that psychopathic individuals are more dishonest, treacherous and destructive than the others. While all three dark personalities can be bad news for a company, corporate psychopathy is the most dangerous. Nevertheless, because they use hard/deceitful manipulation tactics, are perceived as more dominant, and use overt means to appear more 'attractive' to those they wish to manipulate, psychopathic individuals may have the upper hand when it comes time to identify and select the most likely to succeed candidate for employee selection and promotion." -Cynthia Mathieu, The Devil Lurks In the Suit
"Psychopathy is a personality disorder characterized by twenty well-documented traits and characteristics. The most visible are glib/superficial charm, a grandiose sense of self worth, a strong need for stimulation (that is, psychopaths are easily bored) and impulsivity. However, there are others, which they successfully hide from view, in particular pathological lying, conning, manipulation, a lack of empathy, remorse and guilt. Over time, one might begin to see examples of irresponsibility, lack of realistic, long-term goals, and their failure to take responsibility for their own actions." -Paul Babiak, co-author with Robert Hare of Snakes In Suits

"As I have always said, economic collapse is a process, not a singular moment in time. This process lulls the masses into complacency. You can show them warning sign after warning sign, but most of them have no concept of what a collapse is. They are waiting for a cinematic moment of revelation, a financial explosion, when really, the whole disaster is happening in slow motion right under their noses. Economies do not explode, they drown as the water rises one inch at a time."

"...exchange rates — at least in the medium to long term — are mainly determined by fundamentals, exchange rates can change substantially only if underlying macroeconomic conditions (real interest rate differentials, trade and current account balances, the investment climate, and budget balances) change. Regardless of how powerful a government or how watertight an international agreement is, those who enter an agreement cannot get past this fact. As Eugen von Böhm-Bawerk has stated explicitly: “The most imposing dictate of power can never effect anything in contradiction to the economic laws of value, price, and distribution; it must always be in conformity with these; it cannot invalidate them; it can merely confirm and fulfill them.” Will the Drive to Devalue the Dollar Lead to a Plaza Accord 2.0?
