@YoMomz The observation in this quote is accurate. Even if your position is logically untenable, (e.g. Socialism being sound economics) the masses will lean toward it over a logically sound argument by someone whose delivery is gentle and even-handed when your own delivery is fiery and full of strength, assuming your position does not sound as though it directly contradicts their perceived self-interests. Most people don't want to be responsible for themselves because they're weak comparatively.

"The psyche of the broad masses is accessible only to what is strong and uncompromising. Like a woman whose inner sensibilities are not so much under the sway of abstract reasoning but are always subject to the influence of a vague emotional longing for the strength that completes her being, and who would rather bow to the strong man than dominate the weakling--in like manner the masses of the people prefer the ruler to the suppliant and are filled with a stronger sense of mental security..."
@deprecated_ii Baked beans are amazing when they get the drippings off a pork butt.
@Xenophon My question is, when does his workday start? What if he works night shift, and he's having one after work?
Also, if she's so distraught at him drinking beer for breakfast, why is she still with him? I know why. You know why.

@Shlomo This is a fun gif, but I fail to see the connection to ancap.
Learning the Cyrillic alphabet is difficult, but it tickles that part of my brain nicely.
@RoninGrey Progressives
@deprecated_ii I'm not opposed to four ears if they're evolutionary beneficial. Will the human ears become vestigial and eventually disappear?
@magicalthinking Yep. They're toast.
