Pure evil... Sometimes when I argue about whether these people are evil or not, there are people who think that they are not really evil, they think they are just unconscious and naive, they are just doing their job, and that they don't really want to be bad or don't consciously think about the damage they do... For me all that is a pretty innocent thought, from my point of view they are evil and there is no better way to describe them... What do you think, evil, or just naive?

I think they're evil but in an idiotic way. That's why fiat will die. Those types of actions will only grow disrespect from the counterparties of USA. If the US citizens want to grow dumber and refuse to accept reality, there's a limit to how stupidity can be convenient for the state (it leads to more chaos, becomes uncontrollable and blows up, just like a machine that is abused and exposed to a high amount of chaos)

In the end, states are quickly getting far from the sweet spot (citizens being intelligent enough to pay taxes, stupid enough to not be able to rebel)

I don't really know, ultimately it's a power game, like you said the sweet spot is citizens who are smart enough to pay taxes but too dumb to be rebels, and my thinking is that it's going to take less and less intelligence to pay taxes, with cbdcs and all that it entails paying taxes won't be difficult if you're properly subjected to the system, so the requirement to be smart enough to pay taxes may drop drastically. On the other hand, I'm not sure that the disrespect of the other side is based on the average IQ or how rebellious the people of a country are, but rather the opposite, how good they are at manipulating and controlling everything. I agree with your point that they are evil in an idiotic way, at least many of them are simple cogs in a monstrous machine, who out of selfishness and unwillingness decide not to face the repercussions of their actions, and for them we can call them idiots, although for me that does not mean they are evil, because consciously or unconsciously they are facilitators of all this.

Even in the hypothetical scenario of people being able to pay taxes being them monstrously stupid (that I don't believe, because to produce something meaningful, you need a minimum of intelligence and free trade), you better not fuck around trying to harness stupidity. It can create massive systemic chaos and failures. It is like the phrase: "two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity and i'm not sure about the former"

Don't mess with stupidity. It's a bitch, probably the bitchiest bitch.

Yeah, some people with no evil intentions can be instrumentalized but I think it's not relevant today in the highest spheres of fiat power in this corrupted world (probably relevant 30 years ago)
