Scott Adams, the anti-Semitic cartoonist of Dilbert fame, coined the term “confusopoly” to define an economic condition in which multiple competitors with indistinguishable products or services intentionally confuse consumers instead of competing on price. Being a former Radio Shack sales weasel, my favorite example is wireless phone service. They’re all selling the same ability to make phone calls, so they have to weave completely superficial distinctions which are entirely independent of the tangible service being offered. AT&T’s Rollover Minutes are my favorite example: a contractual abstraction pitched as a product itself – with amusing commercials that reinforce the fiction with little cartoon “minutes”.
There are essentially three basic methods for individuals and oligarchies to acquire power: martial, managerial, and mercantile (kshatriya, brahman, and vaishya for the RadTrads). In the early stages of civilization, the aristocratic oligarchies dominate. But as a civilization becomes more peaceful, mature, and complex, the technocratic oligarchies become more dominant. The dynamic and creative leadership of the warlord becomes obsolete and the patient and precise administration of the managerial elite eclipses it.
This basic template has manifested in countless avatars throughout civilized history: The pharaoh vs. the priests, the sultan vs. the vizier, the king vs. the bishop, the warlord vs. the mandarin. Throughout history, the managerial elites have been tempted to escape from their submissive roles as scribes, tax collectors, eunuchs, celibate priests, and other humiliating roles to replace the ruling elite, fostering ever deepening ressentiment toward their overlords.
These bureaucrats are only granted control over the realms which require their expertise – things that require record-keeping, memorizing highly specialized subjects, and similarly boring and inglorious pursuits that the aristocrats can’t be bothered with. So they expand those realms and create new ones. Patiently and steadily, they make one realm after another so complex, arcane, initiatic, and inaccessible to the layman that only they can control it. They weave webs of unnecessary complexity throughout the critical institutions too dense for mere mortals.
And as long as the their rationalizations for weaving these webs are accepted by their victims, they’ll consolidate their control. As long as we assume that financial instruments like derivatives are probably smart things to invest in, as long as we rely on the “experts”, we’ll keep having our pockets emptied. As long as we assume that their “intelligence” is credible because it was derived from “experts”, we’ll keep getting suckered into fighting their wars for them. As long as our politicians rely on the bureaucrats and lobbyists that surround them, we’ll continue to be helpless as our government careens out of control.
We in America don’t live in a democracy or a republic – we live in a confusocracy. Fewer and fewer things can be accomplished without an “expert”, and those experts are overwhelmingly from the invasive managerial tribe who’ve been bred and brainwashed for millennia to excel at this role. When Jews speak, they speak as experts lecturing pupils, often when it’s totally out of context to do so. When Jews write up contracts and regulations, they pay attention to the details in a way that a gentile usually lacks the self-discipline to do. They can delay gratification and patiently play the odds long after the White child goes for the marshmallow and the White adult goes for the sub-prime mortgage.
The Jews wave their contracts and regulations at the White man just as he waved his small pox blankets at the American Indian. They steadily raise the level of complexity, confusion, and sheer boredom until they’re the last ones standing. As long as we keep falling for this ploy, we’ll keep losing. As long as we just assume that Madoff’s investment strategy is too complex to comprehend or regulate, as long as we just assume that the nation requires tens of millions of dedicated bureaucrats monitoring racial quotas and managing medical professionals, we’ll keep losing. Unless we call their bluff, rip the curtain aside, and throw these wizards out of power, we’ll keep losing.
Good post Mr Parrott. The putrifying boil of abomination that is this present Jezebel feminazi system is about to burst and those who have pushed it, and been instrumental in it’s founding will go down with it. The righteous shall inherit the land and the lawless shall be removed from it. Every nation that rejects Christ fails; those that don’t – succeed. There is no such thing as a nations “right to exist”. This “nation” is not the government. The government does not represent the white people of this country who are the TRUE Americans. But not to worry, God (I don’t know if you are a believer or not, but that doesn’t matter) is bringing it down by using it’s own abominable laws/ rules, and policies against itself.
Great article. Confusocracy, mystification, obfuscation, FUD, fear uncertainly and doubt.
Finance is a perfect example. It’s been empirically shown that passive, indexed funds beat active trading, but the salesman come up with all sorts of reasons why their traders are somehow super geniuses that can beat the market. And they do not. The Wall Street Journal ran a series for 20 years comparing a handful of active traders vs. a portfolio literally chosen by throwing darts at a stock chart – year after year, it was a wash. But finance is complex enough that you have to spend years learning it, so any specially trained finance person with a good personality can usually convince most White people, who naively assume good faith.

“Every nation that rejects Christ fails; those that don’t – succeed.”
This statement is not born out by the facts. Asia is much healthier than Western countries. It is closer to truth to point out that countries that were once Christian are now a shambles, without exception.

You just proved Brandon’s point. The West as a whole no longer embraces Christian values. They’ve abandoned God for secular progressive values like radical feminism, homosexuality, alternative religions, drugs, etc. and look at the mess it’s created.
“Every nation that rejects Christ fails; those that don’t – succeed.
Asian countries are a success, yet they never embraced Christianity. There is no point here to prove because it is plainly not true.
“The West as a whole no longer embraces Christian values.”
Why is it that all formerly Christian nations are now post-Christian nations?
Excellent post!

Not nearly as ‘healthy’ as you may wish to believe.
Excellent post, Matt Parrott!
Economic collapse will probably be the downfall of the American financial managerial elite. And the Jews of that elite will be at least as hated here, as the Jews living under Nazi Germany. With a hypothetically consequential Civil War 2, the creative Warlord Class would be revived.

Steve,
Sooner or later, the managerial and mercantile elites invariably drive the civilizations they rule into absolute chaos – a chaos in which the White man is tested, tempered, and triumphant.
Matt Parrott: Well, now I believe the time has come.
This is true within the private sector as well. The financial sector amd the latest meltdown is the prime example. The market for financial instruments is so complex that only a limited group understands everything about it. That’s not including circumstances when the terms of those instruments are intentionally misleading, which seems to be what Goldman Sachs stands accused of.
The basic premise of investment banking should be to collect capital to lend out for investment. Instead, the major focus has been shifted to financial games and bets.
When someone buys and sells, it is usually good.
When someone can buy an option to buy/sell at a certain price in the future, it’s one level removed from basics, but convenient for some. I’m pretty much onboard with that, but I’m for tight regulations, in order to protect market stability and “the little guy”.
Then, someone buys those options, not to use them, but as an investment in itself, with fluctuating price (like stock). That’s two levels removed and should be illegal. Not only does it create instability and drives money away from real productivity, but it’s a preferred Jewish way of “making money”, i.e. without any production or selling.
In addition, some firms have created financial instruments that are, essentially, a bet on whether or not something else (usually a market or another financial instrument) is going to go boom or bust. In theory, there is no limit on how many levels of this type of shenanigans you can build.
In my (not) so humble opinion, anything that is more than one level removed from real finances, should not be allowed.
When Jews speak, they speak as experts lecturing pupils, often when it’s totally out of context to do so.
A great example is that jewfuck* Mencius Moldbug, whose blog title n/a wittily and accurately sneered at as “Unqualified Convolutions.”
*Most Jews aren’t jewfucks; they’re just going about their lives. But arrogant, “accomplished” jewfucks are most certainly jewfucks; mendacious, babbling jewfucks. I used to think Larry Auster was a borderline jewfuck but, despite the uncharacteristic clarity of his arguments, it’s increasingly obvious he’s just another jewfuck.
Don’t buy into the smallpox blanket waving myth. The nasty crackas that supposedly did this to the Indians supposedly did so a hundred years before germ theory was invented.
There is a new, scummy industry that I have suspicions about it’s “ethnicity” Rouge debt collection agencies buying 10-15 year old nearly un-collectible debts for pennies on the dollar and then trying to collect say $800 dollars worth of interest from an unpaid $50 phone bill from a decade back. I heard this industry operates in a gray area of the law in that a lot of these debts no longer have proper documentation. These clowns start making threatening phone calls to every telephone number associated with the debtor from decades past. I bought a new cell phone and had the nightmare of getting some former dead beats number. These jerks called me every single day for months, sometimes at 10pm on weekends. They were very rude in tone sounding like mafia thugs and refused to believe that I had no idea of who they were looking for or that I had just been issued the phone number. I checked on the internet and saw that lots of other people also were getting these calls and the only solution was to go through the work of getting a new number and informing all my banks, utilities, friends, etc of the change. Another sign of America’s decline.
Don’t buy into the smallpox blanket waving myth. The nasty crackas that supposedly did this to the Indians supposedly did so a hundred years before germ theory was invented.
More compelling is the fact that there’s no actual evidence for the smallpox blanket myth. It’s an urban legend supported by venal “historians.”
The Jews wave their contracts and regulations at the White man just as he waved his small pox blankets at the American Indian.
The White man probably did no such thing. If he did do it intentionally as a method of biological warfare, it was probably one general in one exchange. There was no grand plan by centcom to engage in bio-terror.
Additionally, it was a tactic of last resort in an attempt to end a siege.
From a Wiki on the Siege of Fort Pitt:
On June 29, 1763, a week after the siege began, Bouquet was preparing to lead an expedition to relieve Fort Pitt when he received a letter from Amherst making the following proposal: “Could it not be contrived to send the smallpox among the disaffected tribes of Indians? We must on this occasion use every stratagem in our power to reduce them.” [1]
Bouquet agreed, writing back to Amherst on July 13, 1763: “I will try to inoculate the bastards with some blankets that may fall into their hands, and take care not to get the disease myself.” Amherst responded favorably on July 16, 1763: “You will do well to inoculate the Indians by means of blankets, as well as every other method that can serve to extirpate this execrable race.”[2]
As it turned out, however, officers at the besieged Fort Pitt had already attempted to do what Amherst and Bouquet were still discussing. During a parley at Fort Pitt on June 24, 1763, Captain Simeon Ecuyer gave representatives of the besieging Delawares two blankets and a handkerchief that had been exposed to smallpox, in hopes of spreading the disease to the Indians in order to end the siege. Indians in the area did indeed contract smallpox. However, some historians have noted that it is impossible to verify how many people (if any) contracted the disease as a result of the Fort Pitt incident; the disease was already in the area and may have reached the Indians through other vectors. Indeed, even before the blankets had been handed over, the disease may have been spread to the Indians by native warriors returning from attacks on infected white settlements. So while it is certain that these British soldiers attempted to intentionally infect Indians with smallpox, it is uncertain whether or not their attempt was successful.[3]
Though many are unaware of the exact details surrounding these incidents, the idea of European settlers giving infected blankets to Indians is a part of public consciousness, and a common metaphor for a gift given with underhanded intentions
People surely had a basic understanding of how contagious disease spreads before germ theory. As danielj noted, it’s a popular metaphor with at least some historical corroboration.
“Not nearly as ‘healthy’ as you may wish to believe.”
It depends what you mean by “Asia”, of course.
East Asian Mongoloids have very low birthrates and some other problems.
But thankfully Middle Eastern Caucasians are riding tall, at least compared to the Mongoloids.
And compared to Whites they are the holy lords of the Earth.
At least Caucasians will never go extinct, even if the subgroup called European Caucasians do.
In short, organized Jewry takes an economy based on work and wealth, and within a couple of generations transforms it into one based on debt, leveraged debt, and layer upon layer of speculation on leveraged debt. With rake-offs from this pyramid, they then buy up all the politicians. Which is where we stand now. Sadly for the Chosen, all pyramid schemes eventually collapse. And this one is tottering; one more good push – probably involving a global run on the dollar – should do it. In the meantime, all hard-rightists and WNs can help by cutting up their credit cards, and pulling their money off Wall Street and out of the banking system. Then put the money into precious metals. If and when ZOG enforcers come to confiscate, you know what to do.
But thankfully Middle Eastern Caucasians are riding tall, at least compared to the Mongoloids.
And compared to Whites they are the holy lords of the Earth.
In so much as Satan is the ruler of this world so are his children, the Jews, given power over those who don’t embrace the Lord as saviour.
CF, I completely agreed with you up until this:
“Then put the money into precious metals. If and when ZOG enforcers come to confiscate, you know what to do.”
Betting on gold or silver is like betting on copper or wheat, or the Euro or the Yen. If you have extra zogbux to speculate, then sure.
But most White people should just stock up on necessities so they can survive two or three years in dire straits.
“ZOG enforcers” are not going to be coming for your gold, they have no need to. Nor are we going to be reenacting Red Dawn.
Although I suggest you watch Red Dawn again with the new hysterical captions:
But thankfully Middle Eastern Caucasians are riding tall, at least compared to the Mongoloids.
And compared to Whites they are the holy lords of the Earth.
I can see why a Mediterranean might be pleased at the success of Middle Eastern Caucasians, but there is no reason Northern Europeans should be thankful that Jews, Arabs, and Iranians are doing well, particularly when these groups are contributing to our dispossession.
At least Caucasians will never go extinct, even if the subgroup called European Caucasians do.
I care about the continued existence of Europeans, and most especially Northern Europeans. I don’t care if there are still Middle Eastern Caucasians after the extinction of Northern Europeans.
“I can see why a Mediterranean might be pleased at the success of Middle Eastern Caucasians, but there is no reason Northern Europeans should be thankful that Jews, Arabs, and Iranians are doing well, particularly when these groups are contributing to our dispossession.”
I’m not happy when they’re dispossessing Whites either.
But you have to understand that only a very small minority of Middle Eastern Caucasians are involved in doing that.
“I care about the continued existence of Europeans, and most especially Northern Europeans. I don’t care if there are still Middle Eastern Caucasians after the extinction of Northern Europeans.”
It matters from an evolutionary standpoint though.
When a Man has his close family members all killed, it’s bad for his genetic interests.
But at least it isn’t as bad as it could’ve been, so long as some 2nd cousins survived.
We are both of us much closer to Arabs and Iranians than we are to Blacks and Mestizos. Our relative gene frequencies would be reduced in the Human Population if Blacks or Mestizos managed to do to Middle Eastern Caucasians what they’ve done to Whites.
Moreso with me than you, but still you’d take a serious inclusive fitness hit.
We are arguing over whether or not White people knew enough about germ theory and it was widely spread enough in the military at the time that some general might have sent some blankets to an indian that were previously used by smallpox.
The we White people make soap, and it’s all our fault.
Zinn and this “White People Did Smallpox Blankets” is a bunch of nonsense. Also, if you hadn’t noticed, World War II and Hitler were last century.
Mossad did 911. The last ten years were all a lie, and you all fell for it. Let’s not bother arguing dead history, let’s concentrate on the present.
AIPAC will pick our next president – what will you do?
In the preface of the revised, 1976 edition of Walden Two, the author critically examines contemporary American culture, noting that cities have become unmanageably large and that the over-consumption of resources is causing pollution. He writes, “It is now widely recognized that great changes must be made in the American way of life.” Then he asserts that, “The choice is clear: either we do nothing and allow a miserable and probably catastrophic future to overtake us, or we use our knowledge about human behavior to create a social environment in which we shall live productive and creative lives and do so without jeopardizing the chances that those who follow us will be able to do the same.” What kind of new “social environment” might be created to avoid a “catastrophic future”? The author concludes by suggesting that, “Something like a Walden Two would not be a bad start.” – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walden_Two
VVD,
You’re not penetrating our opaque failure to grasp the important issues. You’re riding your hobby horse into an unrelated thread. The article which I believe to be quite relevant for contemporary activists used a metaphor which is a bit controversial. A couple folks offered their take on the whole small pox blanket legend. We did nothing to deserve getting beat over the head with JEWS DID WTC.
“We did nothing to deserve getting beat over the head with JEWS DID WTC.”
I said Mossad not “Jews” and I guess that makes me an anti-semite.
Mossad. Not allowed to say it.
Ragheads instead.
Just makes me sad is all.
Sorry for “beating your over the head” Say hi to the Persians when you capitulate to bombing them too.
WWJSS?
Veni Vidi Dixi,
I admire your tenacity in presenting the case of 9/11 being an inside job, and, because of your persistence, I did some research myself and am agreeing more and more with what you — and most importantly, the evidence — has to say. Thanks.
I think you will highly like this article –

The good (bad?) news is that as systems become more and more complex it makes it much more likely that they will eventually break-down in due time. This is what we are witnessing in the USA and elsewhere at present, with numerous hyper-complex systems slowly de-complexifying because even the managerial elites and their armies of bureaucrats cannot handle the levels of complexity we are now dealing with, especially not in the long-term with intelligent/civilized Whites being race-replaced by dumber/barbarous non-Whites. The amount of entropy in the current system isn’t sustainable in any way; in many ways the best we can hope for is a slow decline rather than a rapid crash so that pro-Whites and their sympathizers can slowly but surely gain more and more influence as the current system continues to wobble and fade away. Maybe you are familiar with a recent article on the subject of how uber-complex systems have a tendency to rapidly and unexpectedly break-down: http://www.voxeu.org/index.php?q=node/1723
What is needed nowadays more than anything else is a ‘back to the basics’ — a focus on the essentials such as the well-being and survival of the race, securing the homeland from inner and outer threats (external mass non-White immigration; internal Jewish criminality; etc), returning to more cordial gender relations, strong families, sustainable agriculture and good wholesome food, cohesive local communities, feasible environmental policies, and so on.
These ideas about getting ‘back to the basics’ as a way to cure so any of the degeneracies of the modern world is almost perfectly captured by the nationalist phrase “race and homeland” (or the phrase “blood and soil” which long pre-dates the German National Socialists). In fact, the phrase “For Race and Homeland” (or something similar) ought to be a key slogan in one or more of the coming pro-White American parties.
“You just proved Brandon’s point. The West as a whole no longer embraces Christian values. They’ve abandoned God for secular progressive values like radical feminism, homosexuality, alternative religions, drugs, etc. and look at the mess it’s created.”
Western nations were doing just fine before an alien, universalist Jew-spin-off religion made popular and dissemenated and largely created by a Jewish lawyer that any black or brown can join was foisted on them and superimposed from above on their organic spirituality, which was tied to blood and soil. Christianity set the stage for what we are seeing today. The Southern Baptists and the Catholics are actively aiding illegal aliens. Give it up. We’ll either win or lose but Christianity is corrupted beyond repair and a dead end.

Burrhus Frederic Skinner was a piece of shit, on a good day.
He wrote Beyond Freedom and Dignity with a taxpayer grant of around $2M (today’s money).

False dichotomy.
Landser,
The Barrett article was great, I generally agree with it.
I think it’s all relevant, the same propaganda that says we are at war with Ragheads is the same propaganda that says Goldman Sachs is just a normal bank doing capitalism. It’s all part of the same structure.
I do think there is a core of 5% psychopaths that are working with the enemy, and it’s mostly easy to isolate and neutralize them.
The details aren’t important. It’s the stance towards the regime. It’s all illegitimate, and we should just give it a short shrift. Instead of engaging in philosophical debates, the regime should simply be mocked, like a naked emperor.
Withdraw from the empire and its power melts, there is literally nothing there.
“Not a jew not an expert” is another mantra we can use to drive home the situation we find ourselves in now to others.
Matt Parott ends his otherwise excellent essay with…
“The Jews wave their contracts and regulations at the White man just as he waved his small pox blankets at the American Indian.”
The small pox blankets myth is a Marxist slander put into circulation to reinforce white guilt. I heard Jewish political pundit Michael Medved debunk this myth just last week. He told a listener that at the time this was supposedly done to American Indians doctors knew so little about germs that they weren’t even washing their hands before performing surgeries.

This touches on something I have long wondered about. As farm equipment became more efficient in the 1800s, productivity went up and we needed fewer farmers to feed the country. As trains went from steam to diesel, we needed fewer locomotive engineers. But as computers become more capable, we somehow don’t need fewer clerks, secretaries, and bookkeepers. And the intelligent men who would have become machinists and electricians 40 years ago, now go to college and then on to an office job, leaving the dregs to work in the trades. Looking at this, I have asked myself, What do all these people DO?
It seems that these descendants of skilled laborers are the little cogs in the bureaucracies that nobody can control. They have lost the dignity and independence of useful labor, exchanged it for clean fingernails and a bigger house. The confusocracy has taken these people and turned their productive energy towards ensnaring one another in pointless complexity. By making, for example, the once relatively simple process of convicting and hanging a murderer a decades long process, hundreds of thousands of man hours are absorbed, hours that once went to making steel and building radios. As the “dark, satanic mills” of England once absorbed the landless peasants, the confusocracy absorbs the otherwise unemployed skilled laboring classes.
