I certainly don't see any point in trying to reason with people on Facebook.

That's hand waving.

There's nothing to talk about.

There's no basis for parley.

All disputes will ultimately be decided by force.
I'm just trying to get famous. I can do it from an airplane while sipping Scotch.

Even in the case of war, it's asymmetrical.

Mostly just squatting in the jungle eating fish heads and planting booby traps.

Then you just wait them out.

It's a long war.

Pace yourselves.

You have checked all the boxes to be famous in America, I don't know if Facebook is an effective platform tho.

It's just noise. You need to get on cable somehow.

Agree but if it was easy, everyone would do it.

Need some sort of product to build a brand around, then build market share around that brand.

It's like if I'm a late night talk show producer, what am I booking you on the show for?

What's your gig?

I'm the Wysest Myn in the Wyrld. The only simultaneously licensed doctor, lawyer, accountant, engineer ever. Perhaps the only Renaissance Myn alive today. I can't help it if the world is too focused on blowjobs, cocaine & designer jeans to recognize my hook? I'll die knowing what I did. Getting famous is just the next thing...

I always thought Hodges was the wisest man in the world.

There's lots of fictional wise people; it's the real ones that are scarce.

I'm dubious as to the effectiveness of wisdom, whatever that may be, in the face of a communist takeover.

It's like being Sakharov living in Gorky.

Not much you can do, but wait for it to collapse under the weight of its own contradictions.
