Zero tolerance punished by extermination is the natural order for every Cautious tyranny.

Backseat drivers are not a problem – until they seize the steering wheel. But once they do, the loop amplification of persistent, failed compliance displays will induce the Cautious tyrant to fix people in the only way they can be fixed – by extermination.

I wrote this yesterday:

This woman sold middle America to Wall Street and the War on Terror to Saudi Arabia. Trump is a buffoon, but Hillary is an actual instantiated Marvel-Comics™ super-villain, right before your very eyes.

In preference to thinking about what might happen in tomorrow’s election, consider what will happen when America falls fully under the big fat thumb of the Cautious tyranny too many Americans already worship.

We’re talking about DISC, so educate yourself, if necessary. A Cautious tyranny emerges when the social machine falls under Cautious control and escape is blocked.

So this question came up last week: “Who thought suspending someone over a chicken nugget was a good idea to begin with?”

And the answer to that question is simple, once you understand my way of thinking:

There is only ever Driven or Cautious leadership.

The Sociable decline leadership roles because they alienate.

The Incandescent in power will become ever more Cautious, over time – or more likely, they will flame out.

Driven leadership consists of rewarding the behavior the boss wants, where Cautious leadership penalizes his pet peeves.

Every Cautious leadership style will tend to ossify over time, since only being less-wrong matters, never being more-right.

This can still work – as in grind-it-out business models with reliable-if-razor-thin margins – but it cannot grow or change.

Because both fear and fascination transfix, all Cautious leadership strategies must eventually end in failure.

Everything that lives must grow or die, and only Driven leadership can grow anything – every social or business entity, but also every successful family and each thriving individual.

Marxism is the temporary and catastrophic mutiny of the Cautious over the Driven.

Accordingly, under Marxism, the perfection of Cautious tyranny, it is not suspension but (in due course) extermination that is the appropriate penalty for every act of disobedience.

This is simply the DISC of Sister Mary Elephant. Backseat drivers are not a problem – until they seize the steering wheel. But once they do, the loop amplification of persistent, failed compliance displays will induce the Cautious tyrant to fix people in the only way they can be fixed – by extermination. This outcome is “no accident.” It’s baked in the cake, as soon as escape from the social machine is blocked.

Now isn’t that a dainty dish. Perhaps you’d rather go back to worrying about the election…
