This board is dedicated to the discussion of Governance, which takes precedence over the discussion of Politics.
The main purpose of this board is not about saying something is wrong, it's about seeing how it could be done right via policy.

can an anti-state person be convinced into being pro-state, if the state give said person everything they wanted, in exchange for technical employment under that state?
I might sound weird.
If an anach-hippie was given anything and everything he wanted (booze, women, men, drugs, free-time, etc), would he be then willing to call himself in service to his benefactor (the state)? Would utopia be enough to flip any passionate man? Can utopia be escaped?

what might such a course of events look like?

Very cool character I'm seeing. I get the idea that he's around, but is at the point where he doesn't need to do much for his machine to work. That he has otherworldly powers and has been around for ages (for ever?). That he is more or less above it all or has grown tired, and is now toying with peoples fate for amusement.

You've described the feeling of the world well. If you don't mind, I wanna put myself in it and play make believe too. It'll be silly though.

What if this cult of order came from space?
Have you ever seen Stargate SG1 with the Origin religion? Not exactly the same but something for reference.

I'm imagining a world some generations ago, that was visited by a floating city. This massive domed satellite that blocks out a large portion of the sky.
So they land and introduce themselves. They're all about peace and prosperity, yadda yadda. The people buy what their selling and now the 'cult of order' has adherents among the common folk.
How far is their reach? Do they 'take over' the whole planet, or go city to city?
Anyway, the strict order, unfair ruling, and (probably) some mysterious effects of the villain slowly start to turn the people serious.
Maybe the hero 'breaks free' simply by noticing something absurd. They can't process what they're seeing and suddenly burst out in uncontrollable laughter.
Does this get someone else's attention? Do they laugh too?
They start to get others noticing the silly and absurd, and that's how the anti-police movement begins. I'm picturing underground clown schools and discordian leaflets.
Then some major event happens that brings the villain out from wherever he was. A so called honk heard 'round the world. (Alright, that was too silly)
But it leads the hero to some climax, and I would hope a run in with the villain followed by some exposition on why he's doing what he does.
Is there a (physical|intellectual|spiritual) fight?
Does the hero win? Are compromises made? Was this part of the villain's plan all along?

Boy! Writing sure is fun when I don't have to do any of the hard stuff!
I hope I didn't run too far off with that. Only throwing what was on my mind out there for you. Keep us updated!

>you will need to make sure you don't end up writing a French existentialist play.
I do not know if this is avoidable, I fear I'm close to writing some beauvoirian passions

I like to think of my hero as Schrödinger's cat fighting the Pavlov dogs of the villain, but I've given him not enough attention. To me, the hero is a demigod born of mysterious parentage, with the soul of the emperors and a birthright to no-thing. Or at the least, he thinks as such of himself via mania. He would be a unique human, naturally capable of most occult feats (second sight, astral projection, divination, riddling, hearing the Logos, etc etc). I have thought of having him start as a member of the cult or a librarian of sorts or to have him raised in secret seclusion (maybe I'll combine them?) or maybe raised humbly in a troupe of actors. I enjoy the idea that he breaks free from the villain's enchantments. Though I cannot figure out that first breakthrough or whether he would be old or young or middle aged when it happens. If he is old experience would be his rocky shore, a young man is naturally rebellious, but a man of middle age has only a little of both. Each seem equally capable of incorrigible optimism with a penchant for disobedience and could easily possess a fool's kingly soul.
I would like something occult and symbolic to start his manic quest, like a preverbal Judgement of Paris maybe. Something to make Jung cum. How did Emperor Norton come to hear the decree of Heaven, or Quixote learn of the vile Enchanter?

You're not far off. I am trying to make a motif of my villain building a machine, in some sense literally. His goal to turn humans into his hivemind. My running theory is that divine things simply cannot be active forces in the world as easily as we mortals are. Rather it is the passive existence of such beings that influences us. His influence turns our souls grey, sapping our individuality and reason, the world becomes pained, sinful, and strange; and his cult offers to alleviate these things as their utopia begins to not hit as hard. I would like to make the cult or some part of it his hivemind, his seduction of earth might be easier that way (as well I do not believe divine things require worship to exist). Specifically, though I describe my villain as divine, he is not a proper deity. If the Gods made and maintain the universe, then he is one that did not participate in creation and seeks to redesign what is made. His divinity would be more akin to Lovecraft's odd beings.
I am unsure if he would simply be bored of his awesome existence, greedily adding to his domain, gorging himself on human energies, finds amusement in mortal forms. Maybe a mixture of these things or some other unfathomable goal. If he is aneristic, I think he would seek to purify mortal existence in some sense.

>I wanna put myself in it and play make believe too

I don't see why not.

I like these ideas and I'll probably use them. I like to joke an origin of our species; that we humans are a colony of space monkeys that crash-landed here eons ago and lost all technology and contact with our elder race in the stars. I'll need to chew it in my head, but I like the funny idea that the first extra-terrestrials we meet ends up being our own species. It would make earthlings more comfortable. Also I believe their tech and close genetics to us would convince the people of earth of anything. Advanced technology, similarity and the right of might mix oddly well, somehow.

And, Yes I am a lawyer.
Yes GRSecurity is contravening the "u can't put any additional restrictions not mentioned in the text of this license" clause of the GPL; vs both the Linux Kernel and the GCC "plugins" they distribute subject to their(GRSecurity's) "no redistribution" clause (which has been effective: the source has not leaked: GRSecurity has made it's patches to the linux kernel and GCC proprietary)

The GCC "plugins" are non-separable derivative works, just as their linux-kernel patches are non-separable derivative works. They only work regarding the parent work.

Don't believe me: read the real player case then. Go on. Read it. If you even make some 3rd party program that messes with the look of the other program you can be violating the copyright on the other program. Go read the case. There are others but when I tell you people you just say "DURR WHY NOT JUST DISTRIBUTe A DiFF and GeT aRoUnD the GpL thaT wAy"

Why won't RMS sue? Because he has women lawyers surrounding him who don't want to do shit. That's actually their job: to dissuade RMS etc from taking any Copyright action and upsetting the "GPL-as-effectivly-BSD-Licensed" status-quoe that emerged.

The only courageous one was Bruce Perens who fought abit of the good fight.
Note: ANY of these federal copyright lawsuits would cost probably half-a-million or more for the Copyright owner to prosecute.
RMS's foundation doesn't want to do it.
GPL rots in it's grave.

Two weird internet cults I found which I keep tabs on, is not in this chart. Spirit Science and the Joy of Satan.

SS is a new age hippie cult with odd beliefs.
JoS is a neonazi cult with odd beliefs.

Both often gave sources and citations for their practices (often taken pragmatically and morphed into their ideals), which lead me to better paths.

I do not believe they are as prominent as any of the listed groups, but they are entertaining to me and this is why I will keep watching them.
They do not interact (I would be surprised if they did) and end up on opposite sides of the spectrum.

As for the Pixar/Dreamworks dimension of things, I've slowly moved Dreamward. No-one can deny Pixar's optical supremacy, but the subtleties of their rival writers was often perplexing, less emotion but more scathe.

As for the DDees/Dec line, I must side with DDees, even if it means our future is forfeited.

>Joe Exotic Presidency
No lies, I actually met the fellow. I was homeless at the time and was dropped off at his camp zoo thing via hitchhiking.
I remember they were filming their netflix documentary though I was clueless about that at the time. His shop was crowded with cameras, crew, JE-themed posters and cds (not the best musician, but at least he tried). I actually had the opportunity to shake his hand and introduce myself. Looking back, I think he thought I was someone else; he seemed excited to meet me, introduced himself and i did as well. I told him my situation, that I only wanted to pay for a night (money from flying signs) in a lot as I needed to keep going. Joe cheerfully obliged, urging his clerk-lady to set me up. I fell asleep that night to the calls and roars of lions and tigers and it was peaceful. The flash-flood rain at 4am is what woke me up and almost ruined my tent-tarp thing.
His neighbor, a sweet old and retired elementary teacher found me soaked and walking along the road. She offered me a ride into the next town, which i took, and began telling the funny stories of his attempted presidency, apparently he never made it out of his county.

I think Joe Exotic would be a great president. If i really wanted my government ran by sane and reasonable people; I would never have voted for term limits.

Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it. See prohibition.

I'll tell you a story. I am from a place where kids could taste whatever alcohol they wanted, in fact you used to get a bit of it against the flu. No minimum age to buy, you could go to the supermarket get vodka. Get to be 15, went with friends to the UK. OOOh alcohol is banned? whatever.

Then we see our peers from other countries get cans of beer using a 18 yo to take to the beach and get drunk.
We were like, look at those losers! there are arcades full of videogames, discoes and what do they do? drink beer ahahahaha!

You get it?

Also, alcohol and pork meat are what islam wants to ban in our society. So, no, alcohol stays.
