"If virtue is necessary for a functioning republic, then Calvinism's disciplined ethos, rooted in its emphasis on the asceticism of labor and social covenants through covenant theology, provided an essential foundation for the revolutionary systems of the independent American state."

The Paradox of Calvinism: How Puritan Discipline Shaped American Democracy
John Adams dismissed Calvinism as aristocratic, yet its moral and economic legacy laid the foundations for the American Revolution and beyond.
"Something similar, I think, is happening with liberals. They’ve become trapped in their own illusions, eating a media diet that consists entirely of their own propaganda, and then generating new propaganda that simply refers back to the old propaganda in an endless entropic Ouroboros. Meanwhile, the quality of the propaganda they generate is degrading rapidly: the deceptions in the news media or the academic literature get more transparent and less convincing with every iteration; the entertainment media gets less compelling, more poorly written, with worse special effects and less impressive acting; their literature devolves into hamfisted sermons mashed together with smut; their computer games feature worse stories, uglier characters, clumsy game mechanics, bugs, and degrading animation quality."

TIL that many countries used to take ships that were no longer seaworthy, anchor them near shore, and use them as prisons. During the American Revolution, more Americans died as POWs on these ships than in combat.
