The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

I'm afraid that when I become a famous and published researcher nobody here will believe that I'm that person ;_;


I remember that North Korea thing about the guy who ripped his passport or something. There was a guy on here before the incident and there were people trying to put the evidence together saying it might have been the guy that was on here.
