How To Identify The Despotic Minority - 8

El Chapos For Life Death
I. It Only Takes A Minority

The charges against our culture's typical national hero ("one who served in the military") for allegedly harboring demented assassination plots against "the enemies of duh people" so far are met with crickets in the right wing arena.

It is their opinion, it would seem, that concrete is the best brain component  (The Shapeshifters of Bullshitistan, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17).

This is all true according to the prescient observations of an astute observer who was fully woke:
"It is forbidden to kill therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets."
(Voltaire). This is not all that Voltaire had to say:
"Voltaire was a versatile and prolific writer, producing works in almost every literary form, including plays, poems, novels, essays and historical and scientific works. He wrote more than 20,000 letters and more than 2,000 books and pamphlets. He was an outspoken advocate of civil liberties, despite the risk this placed him in under the strict censorship laws of the time. As a satirical polemicist, he frequently made use of his works to criticize intolerance, religious dogma and the ... institutions of his day."
(Wikipedia). The gist of it is that he struggled against the despotic minority of his day, noting in his own words that you would not find them in the ghettos, rather, you would find them in the White House, the Congress, the Judiciary, the Military, the Police Forces, the Money Media, and other harbors of power (About Toxins Of Power).

In the previous posts of this series it was pointed out that "the tyranny of a despotic minority" is one of the dynamics that brought down twenty-six previous civilizations (How To Identify The Despotic Minority).

II. Denial Is Not Intellect

The minority in this sense is a number that is smaller than the number associated with the majority.

There are many such numbers, because there are many minorities, but the despotic minority is identified by its cruelty ("tyranny"), and its chosen location within the society it is bringing down.

By "chosen location" I mean the locations identified above: "the White House, the Congress, the Judiciary, the Military, the Police Forces, the Money Media, and other harbors of power".

I say that because the despotic minority is a minority that has surreptitiously learned how to wiggle and slime into positions of power to the point of being able to wield more power than the majority.

For a recent example, have you noticed the metamorphosis that is taking place in the U.S. Senate and the White House?

It is the devolution into the despotic minority.

The source of that disintegration has been detected by modern cognitive science:
"Beyond such internal mechanisms of variation, environment-driven plasticity lends yet another layer of complexity to the brain. The brain is capable of remarkable remodeling in response to experience. Signals originating from the environment can cause both widespread and localized adaptations. At the level of individual cells, structure and function are continually changing with the environment in a dance of lifelong brain plasticity, and some experiences, such as stress or physical exercise, affect the growth, survival, and fate of newborn neurons in neurogenic regions of the brain.
...
Traditionally, cells are defined by the tissue to which they belong as well as their particular functional role or morphology. This classification represents a developmental trajectory that begins early in embryogenesis and is hardwired into each cell. But other differences among cells are more subtle. Multi-dimensional analyses of gene expression and other metrics have revealed remarkable heterogeneity among cells of the same traditional “type.” Cells exist in different degrees of maturation, activation,plasticity, and morphology. Once we begin to consider all of the subtle cell-to-cell variations, it becomes clear that the number of cell types is much greater than ever imagined. In fact, it may be more appropriate to place some cells along a continuum rather than into categories at all.
...
Brain cells in particular may be as unique as the people to which they belong. This genetic, molecular, and morphological diversity of the brain leads to functional variation that is likely necessary for the higher-order cognitive processes that are unique to humans. Such mosaicism may have a dark side, however. Although neuronal diversification is normal, it is possible that there is an optimal extent of diversity for brain function and that anything outside those bounds—too low or too high—may be pathological. For example, if neurons fail to function optimally in their particular role or environment, deficits could arise. Similarly, if neurons diversify and become too specialized to a given role, they may lose the plasticity required to change and function normally within a larger circuit. As researchers continue to probe the enormous complexity of the brain at the single-cell level, they will likely begin to uncover the answers to these questions—as well as those we haven’t even thought to ask yet."
(Etiology of Social Dementia - 18). The denial of science by the despotic minority is not intellect, it is just plain denial caused by an overdose of the toxins of power.

III. Some Other Effects

The two main existential threats to current civilization were discussed in the text of yesterday's post and a video presented in that post (Despotic Minority Does Time Travel - 2).

The despotic minority operatives (C Level Info, ) attempt to cover up those threats while the majority tries to reveal the threats (Time to Panic, The Real Culprit Behind Trump's Border Emergency? Climate Change).

Meanwhile "welfare" and "socialism" are words that have been poisoned by the despotic minority as it degenerates further and further into the abyss of cruelty.

This is something that is antithetical to the direction our founders struggled to go in:
"The Declaration of Independence, setting forth the fundamental objections of the American colonies to English rule, included the statement that the British King 'had refused his assent to laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good' and, in recognition of this primary obligation of the state, the Continental Congress incorporated into the Articles of Confederation two sections containing the words 'general welfare'"
(Fordham Law Review, emphasis added). You know that "welfare" has been made dirty by corporate media presstitutes, and so has "socialism" which until that took place meant the same thing as "the public good":
"... provide for the common defense and general Welfare" - Article I, Section 8, U.S. Constitution

General Welfare: "The concern of the government for the health, peace, morality, and safety of its citizens." - The Free Legal Dictionary

"The grant of power to 'provide . . . for the general welfare' raises a two-fold question: how may Congress provide for 'the general welfare' and what is 'the general welfare' that it is authorized to promote? The first half of this question was answered by Thomas Jefferson in his opinion on the Bank as follows: '[T]he laying of taxes is the power, and the general welfare the purpose for which the power is to be exercised. They [Congress] are not to lay taxes ad libitum for any purpose they please; but only to pay the debts or provide for the welfare of the Union. In like manner, they are not to do anything they please to provide for the general welfare, but only to lay taxes for that purpose.'” -  Justia, Spending For the General Welfare
(emphasis added). The despotic minority is composed of elements of "the 1%" who hide down in the "0.1%" area of the 1% and who do not care about anything but their welfare (The Homeland: Big Brother Plutonomy - 7).

IV. Closing Comments

It is a sad but also a dangerous time when the majority is being "handled" by the despots who are "only" a minority ... but wield more power than the majority.

The recent loss by the despotic minority of the House of Representatives is an example of resistance.

That resistance must spread to the senate and administration if the decline is to be thwarted and a return to the freedoms required is to take place.

But even that is not enough.

It must thereafter be vigorously perpetuated more so than ever before.

Despotic Minority Does Time Travel - 2

Give me your money
I. Time To Travel

This series is akin to How To Identify The Despotic Minority, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, but it focuses on a narrower issue.

The essence or gravamen of this series is mentioned in the Preamble to the U.S. Constitution where it gives a general description of the general direction the founders were going.

I am talking about when they wrote that the general purpose of U.S. Constitution was to "secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity" (Preamble, emphasis added).

In the first post of this series the focus was on recent government events that legislated the opposite of that sentiment, i.e., robbing our Posterity.

II. A How To

We might note that doing that requires endeavors of the "how to" kind.

Sometimes the founders used a "not how to" so as to shine light on how to do the dynamics of the Constitution:
"Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded, because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes; and armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few. In war, too, the discretionary power of the Executive is extended; its influence in dealing out offices, honors, and emoluments is multiplied: and all the means of seducing the minds, are added to those of subduing the force, of the people. The same malignant aspect in republicanism may be traced in the inequality of fortunes, and the opportunities of fraud, growing out of a state of war, and in the degeneracy of manners and of morals, engendered by both. No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare. Those truths are well established."
(James Madison, emphasis added). In other words, if we want to steal from our posterity we will become something that is not good for them or us:
History told us this was going to happen:
But always TCS is primarily the population segment diagnosed as a despotic minority which the once most-often-quoted historian, Toynbee, fingered as one of the members of the trinity of extinction that he found in all civilizations that were about to become very successful at becoming extinct:
That something is the dementia that produces and ends up in suicide:
"In other words, a society does not ever die 'from natural causes', but always dies from suicide or murder --- and nearly always from the former, as this chapter has shown."
(A Study of History, by Arnold J. Toynbee). There is no cure for the final symptom of that group dementia, there is only prevention by way of avoiding it altogether in the first place.

The components of that group dementia were pointed out in an encyclopedia piece concerning that historian quoted above:
"In the Study Toynbee examined the rise and fall of 26 civilizations in the course of human history, and he concluded that they rose by responding successfully to challenges under the leadership of creative minorities composed of elite leaders. Civilizations declined when their leaders stopped responding creatively, and the civilizations then sank owing to the sins of nationalism, militarism, and the tyranny of a despotic minority. Unlike Spengler in his The Decline of the West, Toynbee did not regard the death of a civilization as inevitable, for it may or may not continue to respond to successive challenges. Unlike Karl Marx, he saw history as shaped by spiritual, not economic forces" ...
(Encyclopedia Britannica, emphasis added). The show stopper, in terms of remedy, in this type of group dementia is that it is a contagious dementia.
(Etiology of Social Dementia - 18). That particular "minority" is not a racial or ethnic minority, rather, it is primarily composed of a destructive suicidal trance (Choose Your Trances Carefully, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8).
(Arrested Development: The Creep State). Our culture is composed, now, of the toxins of power that habitually destroy nations and civilizations (Hypothesis: The Cultural Amygdala - 2).
(When You Are Governed By Psychopaths - 8). Cruelty is a or the major essence of tyranny, so we can easily see "nationalism, militarism, and the tyranny of a despotic minority" at work in our culture today.

III. Militarism on Steroids

The current administration is disintegrating treaties that have been good for us and our Posterity:
"Consider it a marriage made in hell. Start with the groom, Donald Trump, the man who once wondered why in the world we make nuclear weapons if we can’t use them; who wouldn’t rule out using nukes, even in Europe; who insisted that a president should be “unpredictable” on the subject; who suggested that it might not be “a bad thing for us” if Saudi Arabia, Japan, and South Korea all became nuclear powers; who threatened North Korea with “fire and fury like the world has never seen” before he became a chummy correspondent with its dictator; and who called for a nearly 10-fold increase in the U.S. nuclear arsenal (among many other, often contradictory, comments he’s made on nuclear matters).
...

Last month, the National Nuclear Security Administration (formerly the Atomic Energy Commission) announced that the first of a new generation of strategic nuclear weapons had rolled off the assembly line at its Pantex nuclear weapons plant in the panhandle of Texas. That warhead, the W76-2, is designed to be fitted to a submarine-launched Trident missile, a weapon with a range of more than 7,500 miles. By September, an undisclosed number of warheads will be delivered to the Navy for deployment."
(Tom Dispatch, cf. The U.S. Military is Everywhere). The common offense is not the common defense:
"The War Department existed from August 7, 1789[1] until September 18, 1947, when it split into Department of the Army and Department of the Air Force and joined the Department of the Navy as part of the new joint National Military Establishment (NME), renamed the United States Department of Defense in 1949."
(United States Department of War, emphasis added). The Department of War was the first client of U.S. father of PR propagandist Edward Bernays.

IV. Closing Comments

The two existential threats to us and our posterity are discussed in the long but educational video presentation by Dr. Chomsky below.

Extinction by nuclear war and/or global warming are currently the two existential threats to humankind ...

Countries With Sea Level Change - 2

Fig. 1 Greenland SLC "fingerprints"
I. Some Background

In the first post of this series readers noticed that some countries have sea level fall (SLF) while others have sea level rise (SLR).

That aspect of sea level change (SLC) upsets the time-worn dissertations of teachers who argue that the oceans are like a bathtub, in that, when water is added to the oceans they rise evenly like a bathtub's water level does.

Thus, under the auspices and guidance of those who use "the bathtub model" to explain SLC we are conditioned to the notion of global mean sea level (GMSL) numerology.

That the ocean is not like a bathtub, when it comes to sea level change, is surprising to their students in the sense of being nonintuitive, so I want to review that aspect of SLC a bit more in this post.

The physics of SLC are covered in other Dredd Blog series posts (e.g. The Ghost-Water Constant, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9; The Gravity of Sea Level Change, 2, 3, 4; NASA Busts The Ghost) and links within them.

There are videos in some of those posts which feature Dr. Mitrovica, a scientist who has authored and co-authored various peer-reviewed papers on the subject over the span of many years.

II. Updated Country List

Tide Gauge Data Appendices (Graphs)
Countries: A - C A - C
Countries: D - G D - G
Countries: H - L H  -L
Countries: M - O M - O
Countries: P - T P - T
Countries: U - Y U - Y

The "countries list" in today's post contains more information about SLC influences, and the history of SLC, than the first post did.

When an inadequate number of years or other reason for not using the data exists, zeros will be used (but you can still view the PSMSL station records).

The appendices, however, are links to the original graphs from the first post in this series.

III. Distances

A tide gauge's distance from ice sheets is an important factor in what it will record, as is the rotation of the Earth, which can be easily surmised by taking a look at Fig. 1.
Fig. 2 Antarctica SLC "fingerprints"


In that graphic, Greenland's highest SLR impact takes place as far away from Greenland as the coastline of Antarctica.

But near Greenland there is only SLF impact (the opposite of SLR).

Comparing the graph at Fig. 1 with Antarctica (in the A-C list in today's post) makes this clear (some Antarctica tide gauges out on the peninsula, to the north of the coast, register SLR).

Thus, the Antarctica section contains this info:
"Distances from stations to:

Glacier Bay: 18307.7 km
Greenland: 16389 km
Svalbard: 16289.9 km
Patagonia: 5602.82 km
Antarctica: 2437.53 km

Sea Levels: 1st year 1957: 7011 RLR; last year 2016: 7062 RLR
SLC Analysis: Greenland is the predominant factor for 51 mm of SLR."
(Countries A-C). Notice that it says "Greenland is the predominant factor for 51 mm of SLR".

Notice again that Greenland's impact on SLR is greatest from the area around the southern tip of South America on down to the coastline of Antarctica (about as far away as one can get from Greenland).

The take home from these observations is that tide gauges very close to an ice sheet or ice field generally record SLF measurements (Fig. 2 shows the impact of SLC by Antarctica).

But when tide gauges are at a distance beyond "the gravitational hinge point" from an ice sheet or ice field, those tide gauges generally register SLR (e.g. Proof of Concept, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9).

The gravitational hinge-point distance is key to whether tide gauges record SLR or SLF (e.g. The Evolution and Migration of Sea Level Hinge Points, 2).

IV. Different Strokes For Different Countries

The larger a country is the more likely it is that it will have tide gauge stations in areas where both SLF and SLR will be recorded.

Fig. 3 Greenland, Antarctica, Svalbard
Glacier Bay, & Patagonia SLC "fingerprints"
But, when only the average of the tide gauge station data in a particular country is disclosed, the SLC variation will be hidden.

So, in the country lists contained in today's post (Section II above) the tide gauge stations in each country are listed individually.

So, you can look up any such situations by clicking on the links to the specific tide gauge station you are interested in.

When the analysis at the end of each country's list indicates "SLF" you can look at the Dredd Blog graphs and the PSMSL links to check out why the tide gauge records show both SLF and SLR in the same country.

V. Closing Comments

As nations choose what to do in response to global warming induced SLC, they can choose to treat the cause (the cause is burning fossil fuels) or they can choose to treat the effect, such as the country's coastal perimeter changes caused by sea level changes there.

Treating the cause is simpler in concept because it only involves one factor: diminishing the use of fossil fuels.

Treating the effects is a more complicated endeavor in the sense that SLF presents one set of difficulties, in terms of sea ports, while SLR presents an opposite set of difficulties for sea ports (The Extinction of Robust Sea Ports, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9; The Extinction of Charleston, The Extinction of Philadelphia, The Extinction of Washington, D.C., The Extinction of Boston, The Extinction of Miami, The Extinction of Manzanillo, The Extinction of Houston, The Extinction of Providence, The Extinction of Chesapeake Bay Islands).

Each country will have its own set of problems and solutions when they choose only to react to the effects (what fossil fuel use does to them).

But there is no bathtub model to follow (Fig. 3 shows the impact when all ice sheets and ice fields melt at equal volume rates).
