The Psychology of Modern Leftism | Theodore Kaczynski

59. We divide human drives into three groups: (1) those drives that can be satisfied with minimal effort; (2) those that can be satisfied but only at the cost of serious effort; (3) those that cannot be adequately satisfied no matter how much effort one makes. The power process is the process of satisfying the drives of the second group. The more drives there are in the third group, the more there is frustration, anger, eventually defeatism, depression, etc.

 Assistant professor Kaczynski at UC Berkeley in 1968.

60. In modern industrial society natural human drives tend to be pushed into the first and third groups, and the second group tends to consist increasingly of artificially created drives.

Composites and Primes as a Self Organized System | Nikola Tesla

Nikola Tesla’s map to multiplication contains all numbers in a simple to use system. Since the diagram is
dated 12/12/12, December 12, 1912. Tesla likely created it during the last years of his Free Energy Lab in
Wardenclyffe. The map is very intuitive, allowing to see how numbers work together based on a spiral with 12
positions. 12 and multiples of 12 is the most highly composite system. There are 12 months in a year, 12 inches
in a foot, 24 hours in a day, etc. 12 can be divided by 2, 3, 4, and 6, so can all multiples of 12. For every 12
numbers there is a chance of 4 numbers being a prime. They happen to fall in positions 5, 7, 11, and 1 (think
clock positions). Tesla said: “If you only knew the magnificence of the 3, 6 and 9, then you would have the key
to the universe.
” The digital roots of the numbers in positions 3, 6, 9, and 12 constantly repeat the same
sequence 3, 6, 9.

Well, in reality all of the above was created by math teacher Joey Grether: He originally developed the chart for
his children. He tried to promote it via 12xspiral but with little success. So he cheekily decided to create a
hoax, making it look like the chart was by Nikola Tesla (HERE)
