I hate this mentality. What really happened is that you were fresh out of the womb, a young spriteful creature full of energy and youth hormones. Your body was working at maximum efficiency and you were mentally flexible and quick and sharp; brain full of progesterone and dopamine.
Then what happened? Boomers filled your food with sneed oils and gut-shredding chemicals and you became inflamed. Your body coped by sacrificing more superfluous systems and keeping you running on “stress mode”. A system that was never designed to be chronically activated.
Now the damage has accumulated and you are a lesser organism than what you could have been. Your energy diminishes and so does your intelligence. Serotonin rises to conserve your rapidly declining energy reserves and now you’re numb and unmotivated.
No amount of hustling and bustling, locking in, attending Andrew Tate alpha male webinars or working hard at a soul-crushing job like a good little paypig will improve your situation or make up for the degeneration of your being.
There are virtually no open avenues for “locking in” anyhow. Since we live in a low-risk longhouse socialism welfare gynocracy, every attempt at entrepreneurship or novelty is stamped into the ground via regulation and bureaucracy. You are not allowed to start something cool and exciting or different.
The only “locking in” you can do is set up some phony business and sell snake oil or charge money for coaching in the hopes you’ll find some normie out there who’s more gullible than you are and slowly siphon out their wealth in exchange for a useless product. Ray Peat talks about this.
I hate this stupid David Goggins-esque serotonergic gaslighting. I am going to sauté you in sneed oils.

I did like this post. At a certain point the libertarian-Peatarian deviation runs up against the wall of their system itself being broken and anti-human.

Yes. I have learned that electroncis entrepreneurship is much pricier than initially thought due to FCC certification fees.

Oh yeah. Now, the Peat-as-Communism thing has a little truth, but I don't think that's the big picture and I don't think government systems are directly changed by the will of the people, or that those people achieve anything "better" for long.
I more or less am currently dying on the hill that "depression" is metabolic not psychological. The psychological side I would say enters in when one gains more physical metabolic energy. Energized, one sees who absolutely de-energized and suffocated the real world is. Chem-trails cover the sky every day, a fake virus shuts down the world for nearly 3 years and still to this day in plenty of "advanced" countries. Meanwhile, anger is blamed on toxic masculinity and humor is derided as offensive. They are choking out all signs of life, because genuine life lives, forgives and grows; it opposes psychotherapy and Freudian deceptions...
Anger - action has been replaced with indifference and drug addiction. Health and family have been replaced with abortion, pornography, and gimmicky snake oil businesses.
I would say what little "locking in" we do can begin with intellectualism, which is scolded and looked down upon by the idiotic bureaucrats and those who enable them. Goggins is yelling at you, telling you to become the best warrior monk you can be. Read voraciously, remember things, think and study language. But yeah, I empathize.

@wester130 are you Canadian

Good.
Because the only thing standing between mostlylurking's hyperbole being an alt-media infection and far more surgical means of subjugation than OP describes is this. And the remainder of informed market dynamics. I'd say erode them at your peril but you're a commie (humour).
To be fair. Unless and until someone has a better idea to unify people while they maintain a constructive outlook, I can almost sympathise. War is bad.
FCC filing documents are also quite useful for boxes that would otherwise be black without reverse engineering.

I think it does, I'm coming around. But if he was a commie in the 'classical' sense then 'I am a Communist.' would be an RP quote (maybe it is? hit me). Seems he was trying to figure out what that actually means without or without too much imposition. I doubt anyone at ACP could tell me in the clear what it is but I'd have to ask. Is it a law, is it a data driven cybernetics exercise and a law. Isn't there a better way...
but I don't think that's the big picture and I don't think government systems are directly changed by the will of the people, or that those people achieve anything "better" for long.
Of course it can. But you need specifics and coherence. Which can probably only hold up in Truth.

It matters little if the patsies were boomers, gen x, Gen y or Gen Z. Look at the bigger picture so you don't miss the detail.

Yeah I can see this point given the time period in which he lived. If his stance on nutrition is alternative to western imperial/fascist nutrition, then yes it's relevant to ask how food and energy determines society. He said energy is a consequence of structure. I think Louis Sullivan (?) Said form follows function, and this is very similar, as form/energy have an aesthetic and social significance whereas function is structure. Funny that this can be taken towards radical individualism or radical social-ism. I keep seeing the horseshoe theory everywhere...the limits of the individual are the limits of the group, and group size and number needs to be considered.

I have recently been brushing up against this in a lot of different areas as well. Although I do not think about it in terms of a horseshoe, but more of a hub-and-spoke. As in a bicycle wheel. Actually it's a recursive hub-and-spoke.

The hubs (more stationary, "sources" of power), have a more "female" quality. The spokes (protruding, "ejaculatory", exploratory, more varied (in terms of measured IQ for example)) have a more "male" quality. I think this maps really well onto the fact that males are a sub-variation of females (we still have nipples, fused labial scar on underside of genitals, etc...). @LetTheRedeemed had mentioned a similar sexed evaluation of the social hierarchy. As opposed to a "vulgar dialectic" of equal yin and yang. Individualism or socialism is as such a question of what place in the system is within your view. In the design of computer architecture management, an often-used dictum is "cattle, not pets". But this is myopic because you need pets to manage the cattle. Call it "sheepdogging".
The center might be called The Party. The periphery might be called the Mass Line.
Funny that this can be taken towards radical individualism or radical social-ism.
The founding fathers were generally preachers towards individualism, but their individualism was indisputably enabled oftentimes by slave plantations or other structures. Hence the dissonance between Jefferson calling slavery a "hideous blot", designing Monticello in such a way as to see slaves as little as possible, yet still continuing the practice. Without this social structure their time at the constitutional convention and such would have been spent doing menial labor in the maintenance of clothing, housing, food. The "individualist", let's go with "software entrepreneur", is a phenomenon made possible by an incredibly socialized manufacturing and commodification of computers.
Today a greater individualism is materially enabled by a vast socialized, standardized, electrical and communications grid. As Lenin said, "Socialism is Soviet Power plus Electrification of the Whole Country". Standardization of shipping containers. And so on.
