Disenchanted Scholar asks:
Three terror attacks in one night in London, luvvies and other lefties have stopped signaling in defense pretty much, they know now their film premieres and festivals could get targeted. Could you do a post of why and what’s going on in their heads right now?
At this point the obvious concern is those three attacks are designed to divert Police resources from the charity concert’s security. Three attacks is a bit much, reeks of coordination, and begs the question why not hit the concert at multiple weak points with that force? If they have just diverted half or three quarters of the security for the concert to dealing with these attacks, they may have opened up an opportunity at the concert, which I assume they see as their crown jewel of targets. I suspect they will postpone the concert.
As for the luvvies, they are programmed robots, designed to side with force. Eric Hoffer wrote that the left would bite the hand that fed them, and lick the boot that kicked them, and he was right. In cases of Stockholm Syndrome, victims have actually sided with kidnappers who have violently tortured them, and turned on the Police officers who rescued them. Why? The Police are not a threat, the torturers were, and the only way a rabbit can deal with threat is to prostrate themselves and beg for mercy.
The luvvies are the same thing. So long as we K-strategists are likely to let an attack slide, and we are not pissed enough to act, the luvvies will attack us, and side with the terrorists. The more reasonable we are, and the more violent and unreasonable the attackers, the more the luvvies will signal by attacking us as a way of alleviating threat. But mark my words, the instant we decide we are going to draw blood until there is no more to draw, the luvvies will either side with us, or lead the charge. Their goal is to be on the winning side.
You saw this after 9/11. When America was genuinely pissed enough to kill anyone who sided with our enemies, the luvvies shut up. If President Bush had turned on the Muslims, the left would have kept their mouth shut, and the nation would have become violently anti-Muslim. Instead Bush did what any northeastern liberal cuck would have done by supporting Muslims, and as a result he eroded the right’s emotional advantage from the inside. In so doing he probably increased Muslim immigration over the ensuing years several thousand-fold what it would have been otherwise.
Leftists do not charge into danger. Their entire strategy of siding with the most violent is a way of avoiding conflict with the most likely to be violent, all to save themselves. The fact they are being quiet now is a sign they are beginning to detect that native Brits are getting to the point that they have had enough, and soon it may be the native Brits who are going to be violent. I expect in a few days they will take the temperature, and if the threat is low enough that they judge Brits will take a little more, they will go back to appealing to the Muslims as a way of trying to assuage their amygdalae’s stresses.
Of course as angry as Brits are now, it is nothing compared to what they will be like when the economic collapse hits. It is a very good sign, and you can see the obvious implications of this which will come into play when the Apocalypse hits. Then you can expect the left to lead the charge, at least vocally, against every out-group.
All of those rabbits are astonishingly cowardly.
[…] Terror Attacks In London – What Are The Luvvies Thinking? […]
The luvvies didn’t shut up after 9/11. At the time, I was a Green Party activist who attended weekly meetings in the SF Bay Area. The very first meeting after 9/11, the entire group was spinning about how American interference in the M.E. was the root cause, and we had to work for justice. I told them off and registered as a Republican.
Oh, and that meeting was the first time I heard that the 9/11 casualties were a small fraction of deaths from car accidents. Yes, they said that a few days after 9/11.
Interesting. At the national level all I recall was one asshole saying our chickens had come home to roost, and everyone turning on him. In more moderate areas of the country it was made clear, you had better not side with the out-group. I guess San Fran may have been a bit different, because the lefties felt insulated and safe.
Hey Anonymous, I have been thinking on the childhood of r’s or K’s what makes the adults the way they are. I almost finish biohistory which is interesting to comparing it with your r/K The evolutionary Psychology Behind Politics book. In chapter 5 on rising of babies (0-2) and child (5+) and how to bring the different types of adults in society.
This article and the book reminds of Lloyd Demause The Origins of War in Child Abuse charter 6 on France pre WW2. I would love to hear your thoughts from an r/K with early child rising.
“The French had somewhat less abusive childhoods, but one central childhood factor determined what they were to re-enact in World War II: the majority were sent at birth to a wetnurse, whether the parents were rich or poor, abandoned and rarely visited, for years at a time… ”
“…to create their own abandonment by other nations who might have been willing to join them in military defensive moves, plus cutting French defense expenditures rather than rearming when they saw the German military expanding. Daladier even admitted that only a firm military policy could stop Hitler, “but was at a loss how to do it,”
It sounds a lot like the talk of today’s politicians London Mayor after the terror attack in 2016, ‘part and parcel of living in a big city’.
It is tough sometimes to visualize those things, because they create repetitive experiences, which cause one to repeat thought processes that later may get adapted to unrelated areas, simply because they have become so powerful. So a child abandoned by parents may crave the parent’s attentions, and later as an adult, they apply that in business decisions relating to relationships between companies that are designed to be transient, but which they are hesitant to end, even though they should.
I’m not sure how wet nurses would affect national character and policy, though I could see how it could create such a generalized behavioral pathway that would affect a lot of stuff later on. I just don’t know enough about the experience, and what it would trigger in the kids. I’d have to think about it, and check out the experience in detail.
I think his point relates to something called an attachment disorder and the maladaptive cognitions that follow. Look up the Romanian orphanage study, Boarding School syndrome and the terrible psych outcomes of adults who were put in day-care as kids. It’s an ugly picture. State interference is abusive.

A great book for anyone about childhood influences is “30 is NOT the new 20” it’s all about pattern-formation, gift it to any older children or teens you know, saves years.
😀 senpai noticed me
feel free to edit this out if too long but it’s biological,on the ground:
As well as the luvvies’ silence to see which side will be victor they must suck up to, I’ve heard of many virulent lefties in my acquaintance that have ‘mysterious’ illness recently, I guess the amygdalic repression is causing them stress but they’re tending to get heart complaints in older males (30+), thyroid/lymphatic and adrenal problems in very young people (my age).
This should not be happening and I’ve studied ailments in other time periods so I know it’s unique. As a fellow who also appreciates biology, I thought you’d find this possible black swan interesting. Freud defined depression as ‘frozen anger’ and it does beg the question what will happen in Europe as it thaws, young people I’ve noted have more health problems than ever before and it isn’t purely economic oppression. There’s an argument for biomedical stressors and environmental irritants (are you thinking microbiome? I’m thinking damaged/impaired microbiome). This is beyond the obesity tendency to eat feelings of inadequacy. I have a pet theory, probably crap, that there may be an r-selected repression syndrome, in times of rising K.
Every single lefty prediction has been wrong and once you point this out they start to snap, a brittle ego to be sure… I guess the whole world is proving them naive? Outgrouping with reality, no defense. Inflammatory markers for cancer on the rise, even among organic eaters. Tip: Doctors can’t talk about cases but they can spot trends. Nervous irritation is a dead cert. There’s a rumble of something, AC. Much like the unemployed, those in pain/ill tend to feel alien in society and identify with the outgroups. A comment on Vox Day’s blog described how a teacher has snapped at this one, and how it’s unique in that people finally resisted.
I agree on all of it. I also find it interesting I cannot see anything visible in the environment, like people starving, or some pain they are enduring. But I see the crazy rising everywhere. We are all keying in on something, and it is rising. Too soon to tell if Trump will reverse it, especially since I am not sure what “it” is. But something is out there, and it is being felt, and it looks an awful like it could be Apocalypse.
It could be the ratios of demographic, the classic given for Muslim uprisings is 10%. The obvious access point for microbes is food, could be the enteric nervous system, have you ever met a right-wing foodie?
They gorge like Kings, their thoughts are as naive and sheltered. Excess bonhomie. “You’re not conscious of your gut thinking, but the system produces about 95% of the serotonin and 50% of the dopamine found in your body.” from https://theconnection.tv/second-brain-gut/ The angry ghrelin based response also lines up nicely with the perma-offended, who happen to be malnourished (starvation mode) every other week. It all ties into the brain “When they studied their brains they noticed that the communication between the part of the brain that sets off feelings of anger (called the amygdala) and the part of the brain that calms down the emotional response (called the prefrontal cortex), was much weaker. The more prone people were to aggression, the more sensitive they were to serotonin depletion.”
For goodness sake, Trump isn’t going to “reverse” anything.
He is part and parcel of the Kabuki.
There will NEVER come any solution from within the R or D parties in America.
Why are smart people the last to see it?
